It was an apartment move and if we would have let them finish it would have probably taken them 7-8 hours. They took their time and didn't seem to move at a timely pace. My TV was dropped as well and there were no apologies. We said we really just needed them for the big furniture and they waited to move our bed until the very end after we insisted that they should just move the bed at that point and finish up. If they just moved the big stuff and a few boxes like we asked they would have finished within 4-5 hours. When my husband asked them to stop moving and we would do the rest they tried to convince us to keep using them to move our boxes. One of the movers even tried to convince me to keep working them behind my husband's back after he asked them to stop. We spent more than we expected because of the lack of timeliness on the movers end. read less

We were helping our daughter move out to her first condo, so they moved her bedroom furnishings, our entire bonus room (family room-type furniture), misc. boxes, lamps, etc. The team ( 2 young men ) were awesome! The were courteous, respectful and extremely careful. They were careful moving all the furnishings so as not to damage or scratch them, but equally as careful not to damage, dent or scrape walls at our home as well as her new condo. I was thinking we were going to need to touch up paint - but I was wrong; they did a great job and I sincerely appreciated it. After finding such great reviews on Yelp which lead me to hire them, I felt compelled to write a review myself, so others may use and appreciate their exceptional moving services. I would use them again and would recommend to anyone wanting a problem-free move at an affordable price.

Once the contract was agreed upon and signed, I assumed (ass u me) that the COVID19 crisis and negotiations over government moves were keeping him busy (as had been suggested in our earlier correspondence). The Sunday before our move I emailed to check in just in case... and was shocked when I received a response that he would be unable to complete the move we had agreed on (& angry that it took a message from me to learn as much). I cannot overstate my disappointment and dissatisfaction with the lack of professionalism and the discourtesy. Less than a week out from our move and no mover. Epic failure in communication and character. The marketplace is limited but there are enough movers (an essential workforce) to make another choice. My recommendation- make that other choice! read less

Considering the distance of the move and the amount of vibration on the road it was essential that hard surfaces should never come in contact. I'm sure it didn't help that when they arrived they thought they were there to UNLOAD a truck. Loading for a long distance move requires skill and experience which I felt these young men lacked.

I provided many furniture pads and told them to pad everything. I also assured them that if they needed more pads I could get more. They never asked for more. The pads that they used were not secured and so slipped off during the 3000 mile drive, causing damage to wood finish and the wood itself. I supplied about seven large rubber bands to aid in this but the unloaders found that only two had been used. Tape was available but they did not tape, either.

I purchased a pack of five mirror boxes to protect my pictures and mirrors and even purchased padding paper to wrap the items for packing. They did not use these at all and only used one old mirror box at the end. The unloaders found framed pictures just stuck in the load completely unwrapped. This is inexcusable.

THE JOB OF A LOADER IS TO MAKE SURE THAT ALL OF THE GOODS ARRIVE IN UNDAMAGED CONDITION, NOT JUST TO GET THEM ON THE TRUCK IN ANY WAY POSSIBLE. In response to my complaint I was told that there is absolutely no recourse for the unhappy consumer. We'll see. There are serious gouges on several pieces that will cost quite a bit to repair, if it is even possible. And on the subject of cost, they were quite slow (claimed they were being extra careful) so I paid more than I thought I would for the crappy job they did.

DO NOT USE THEM FOR LOADING FOR A LONG DISTANCE MOVE, ESPECIALLY IF YOU VALUE YOUR FURNITURE AND LIKE THE WAY IT LOOKS. read less

They were punctual, professional, and did a great job.We had to clear out our downstairs last July for a remodel and move heavy exercise equipment, furniture and a bunch of boxes upstairs. It was supposed to be a 2-person move with a min hour associated. James was the lead and was absolutely amazing. The 2nd guy showed up and then left saying he was sick. James was so fast he was done before the min hours were hit and only charged me for one person. So... I got 1/2 off what I was expecting to pay even though the work was done in the same amount of time. He was scary fast while being careful with our stuff. He did a great job. Considering we were using our living room for storage, he was very thoughtful in how to piece everything together in a very compact way so we could still get around. I contacted them again when the remodel was done to move the same things back downstairs and some up to a newly created attic space. This time Zach and James came. Both did a fantastic job again. I was very happy we had them come out. read less

Zac was really responsive on the scheduling end and the movers were great!

Would hire again! read less

We thought we had a good moving crew last time around but could not align dates for this move with the same company.
After reading some online reviews we decided to go with B&Z Moving this time.
These guys killed it.....Courteous, Professional and Efficient!
Great crew!!
I strongly recommend these guys if you are in need of a moving company. read less

From the very start, a few weeks before the move, Zac communicated about what to expect, timing, tips...it was very professional and hassle-free. If you want great service and at a very fair and transparent price, you can't go wrong with B&Z Moving. I will be sure to recommend them to any and all friends and family who are undertaking big moves! Don't waste time comparing, go with them and you will be taken care of. read less

I called them last minute when the mover I hired was a no-show, and they were able to fit me in same day. They were professional, friendly, and responsive/communicative, keeping me up to date on where they were with the job proceeding mine. They were unfazed by how frazzled I was as the result of the irresponsibility of the no-show company. When they arrived, they completed my move quickly and professionally. Finally, because I did not use them for their labor-only minimum amount of time, they actually came back to help me (a few weeks later!) to move a misplaced delivery. I am definitely using them again the next time I have to move and highly recommend you use them if you need any sort of moving help. read less

I did research on various companies in the Puget sound area. B&Z rates were competitive. After a few inquires, B&Z provided me a reasonable estimate for time and cost based on a rough inventory of the items to be moved, the date and time of move, etc.

Everything went according to plan. Two guys arrived on time. The time to pack, move, unload was under the estimate time and so I was only charged for that amount.

Overall great experience, friendly crew, couldn't have been better. I will definitely be a repeat customer for my next move.

Thank you B&Z! read less

Thank you B&Z moving!

I based my hiring of them on the positive yelp reviews and the good customer service on the front end. However, the actual move was the worst moving experience I have ever had.

Everything up to the actual move was great, but once the two guys got there is was all downhill. Very nice men, but absolutely the worst movers I have ever used - and I have moved a lot.

It's as if they were trying to drag the move out as long as possible. I have never, ever seen movers move SO SLOWLY and seem confused by every object. I had just broken my toe and was moving items up and down the stairs faster than they were because it was more painful to watch than to walk on a broken foot. There was a great deal of just standing around and I had to insist they back the truck into our giant driveway rather than taking each item an extra 100yds out to the street. They damaged a chest of drawers beyond repair, it had to be scrapped, and also smacked items against stairs and doorways regularly - there was damage to walls and doorjambs as well.

I expect movers to be expeditious and know how to handle large objects - AT A MINIMUM. I have never, ever had a single item broken before - and this item wasn't even heavy or difficult to move. I don't expect to need to give them direction and walk around on a busted foot faster than they do. When I did complain to the company, not the slightest hint of an apology.

In my many, many, many moves this was by far the worst experience I have ever had. If you want great movers use Can't Stop Moving. I used them for a smaller move and wished I had stuck with them. They seem more expensive but move fast and don't break your stuff so you save in the end. read less

I will absolutely use them again. Joey and D (the two movers) were strong, careful, speedy yet efficient movers. They were flexible in that we had four stops to make including a furniture warehouse to pick up an astoundingly heavy 500 lb+ live edge wood table. They muscled that monstrosity up into the truck just the two of them - unbelievable! These guys are two of the hardest workers I've ever seen. They saved me a significant amount of money by their strong work ethic - our first stop they moved my sister's belongings and furniture in record time - I think it was 30 minutes! They exercised caution and care with all furniture and were polite and good natured - really fun to be around. I love these guys!

As far as the front office, Zac was upfront about everything - no hidden costs there. His intake was thorough and I appreciated his level of attention to detail. Everything went way more smoothly than I could have imagined.

In conclusion, using anyone else would be a shame. These guys not only proved themselves, but went above and beyond. For price competitiveness, they blew everyone else out of the water. I collected quotes from over a dozen moving services, and B&Z were most competitive with zero hidden costs of fuel surcharges. From a former business owner, let me tell you B&Z is the best it gets when it comes to a business run well. Thanks B&Z!

P.S. Tip your movers to reward for great service !! read less

In the end I went with them and was mostly happy with the results. They were able to get me in on the week that I wanted despite only having one week advance notice. The movers arrived on time and ready to go. The move itself required some packing, which after finally going over everything is almost entirely fine; the one item that did break was an Ikea dresser that had been moved six times, so I don't blame them really. All of our stuff was placed where we asked and the movers were considerate and, frankly, gentle with placement. The charges were reasonable, so yeah, I would recommend using B & Z.

That said, there were a few things that honestly prevent me from giving 5 stars. I explained my situation clearly in the e-mails and was scheduled for three movers and a 26' truck, only two movers were sent. I repeatedly indicated that the packing would be the dishes and glassware and that although I would be providing boxes, I wouldn't have packing paper. The movers arrived without packing paper and tape, so I had to make a run back to U-Haul for those items. At the start of the move one of the movers had to use the bathroom, which he asked to use. I cautioned him that the cat was in there and shouldn't be let out, but he did... and did it again after I corralled the cat back. Sure, I could have used a different room, I just didn't have one empty at the time. It is a minor annoyance, but if a mover is going to play music throughout the move, it is a common courtesy to ask first. He didn't and it annoyed me the whole time. read less
