    Recently hired Moishe for a packing and moving service in NYC. We generally had better experience with them but was horrible this time.<br><br>They mostly dumped stuffs in boxes without much wrapping. None of framed artworks and photos were wrapped and were just tossed into boxes that also had shoes. They also tossed shoes along with pillows.<br><br>I won’t hire them again.

    I used Moishes (GAM Storage) for my business for 10 years<br>The service team are quite good<br>But when I went to close my account and move my items to a new space the owners tried to hold me to contract terms they just made up<br>I needed lawyers involved to get them to honor the original contract, and then they still charged me for the month it took them to respond to my lawyers<br>The final delivery included a broken item<br>There has been no follow up from them regarding any compensation for this broken item<br>I am happy to have finished doing business with them<br>I would encourage you to look for other companies for your storage needs

    I would not recommend Moishe’s to anyone. I usually go with Piece of Cake for moves, but thought I’d try a new service. Completely regret it; Moishe’s was a nightmare. First, they tried to cancel on me with less than 24 hours notice and I had to put up a fuss to make sure they kept it. Second, the moving guys showed up late and immediately tried to upsell me before even looking at the entire apartment. Third, they claimed they couldn’t move our bed because the primary moving guy “forgot his tool box.” I had to dig through my boxes to find my small one to make it happen. Fourth, after showing up late, they ultimately moved everything six hours later than the original quote time, and my new building has strict moving times (I had to plead to make it happen). Fifth, when I unpacked my clothes, everything smelt like cigarettes. I assume they took a smoking break around my boxes. I had to rewash everything. Sixth, I’m slowly finding several things that are stained with grease, including my linen headboard. Lesson learned: Don’t go with Moishe’s.

    Can't recommend them enough! Mike takes a video inventory and you can rely on the price and the team showing up and getting the job done. Omar was wonderful team lead, great communication, reliable timing etc

    Moishe’s is the best in service, attention to detail. From Jillian in the office to Manu’s team. Very careful, attentive, polite and efficient. Helped to ease the stress and nerves of a big move!

Company Background

About Moishe's Moving NYC

Moishe's Moving Systems is one of the older names in New York moving, in business since 1983. Its site lists 450 West 15th Street as the New York office. The NYSDOT carrier record gives a Bronx warehouse at 840 East 134th Street, and the federal record lists Jersey City, where the company also has a location.

Services include local moves for homes and offices, long distance and interstate moves, commercial relocation, packing, white glove service, last minute moves and a supplies store with free box delivery on qualifying local moves and storage rentals. Storage is a large part of the business: private self storage rooms with seven day access, commercial storage with inventory management, climate controlled art storage and wine storage.

Estimates are free, at home or by video, and quotes come as flat rate or hourly. Office moves start at $1,200 for a small office of up to 10 employees, according to the site. Customer service works seven days a week, and the company says local, commercial and long distance moves are handled by its own trained employees rather than subcontractors.

The NYSDOT carrier database shows Moishe's Moving Systems, LLC active with NYSDOT number 12853. FMCSA lists USDOT 587098 with authority as a household goods carrier and MC 237817. The site shows BBB accreditation for its Jersey City profile.
