So I mostly use Trustpilot to name and shame evil behaviour from bad companies. Not the case today! Kudos to the Movers not Shakers team who did an outstanding job for my move in London from A to Z.... See more

Company details

Information provided by various external sources

Movers, Not Shakers! has been helping people relocate into, out of, and around New York City since 2002. Our business has grown every single year. We love working for our clientele and, make no mistake, the primary driver of our growth is the word of mouth we enjoy as our customers pass our name along to their friends and family. We charge a flat fee because we understand in New York time itself has a value like nowhere else. If we finish a move ahead of schedule, we both win.

Movers

Movers, Not Shakers were not true to their advertisement. Their flat fee is not a flat fee. They charged S315 over the quoted price and were not available for a change of schedule date. I made many phone calls early Saturday morning before my impending Wednesday move. No one answered the phone, text, voicemail, or email on what should have been a busy business day. In addition there was a small property damage that M & S made no attempt to resolve with me, the customer. No I will never use this service again. They don't value every customer.

Great work!

They did a lot of work at a reasonable price. They were friendly, easy to work with, and very efficient. They even set our bed up for us!

These guys made my move so much easier than I could have hoped! With the first contact online to follow up phone calls and the actual move itself... it was really smooth! And the guys have great personalities which totally helps on the day of... I moved a two bedroom...three hours, start to finish...so easy. (I moved only a mile away)

Movers, Not Shakers is Great

Movers, Not Shakers was truly excellent to worth with; from start to finish they provided careful and thoughtful attention to detail, and each person on their team (from sales to mover) was very nice, and their prices were more than fair. I would use them again in a heartbeat.

Awesome move! Not shaken at all!

Great service, quick move out and move in. Worked well with the rules of both buildings and we able to adjust timing based on having to update our schedule. All our furniture, art and belonging arrives fully in tact. Highly recommend!

Alessandro and team are AWESOME!

Alessandro and the whole team were terrific from our first communication to our last. With four movers, they handled everything with care and a quickness (no elevator in either apartment). I think the most amazing aspect was their overall kindness and professionalism. Even after getting lower offers, I'm very happy I went with Movers, Not Shakers and would refer their services to anyone. Thank you! -Zack

I had a wonderful experience with Movers, Not Shakers. I moved from Long Island to Brooklyn, making 2 additional stops along the way. The movers were prompt & efficient. They came to my home, wrapped all of my furniture with speed and precision as well as my baby grand piano, which I was most worried about. They took great care in moving my belongings into and out of the moving vans. The fee was more than fair for the work involved. On a side note, we tipped each mover (there were 7 of them) $100 each...a couple of them were disgruntled and thought they should be tipped more. Other than that, I would highly recommend Movers, Not Shakers

Movers

Movers, Not Shakers is a cut above the rest when it comes to moving companies. That is in no small part thanks to Kater Danford, Director of Business Development. The foreman she sent, Harry was not only incredibly skilled but he also pulled his team together in a way that I rarely see amongst movers. As a professional organizer I tend to deal with a lot of different moving companies and Movers, Not Shakers is the one I would choose to do my own move. My clients were over the moon with how professional the guys were and how caring and present Kater was throughout the entire process. Thank you! I will be recommending you to everyone I know!

I have moved 4 times in the past 10 years and Movers Not Shakers is by far the best and the most economical. If I have to move again I won’t have to think twice...I will call you immediately
