  What an incredible experience with Big Sam Movers! I had recently closed on a new home in south jersey. Being a first time home buyer, my budget was being depleted due to more important things with my escrow/realtor fees. The last thing I needed was to be cheated on moving expense. They worked within my budget, my likes/dislikes and if I needed extra protective gears for my big items. My move started in Hoboken to Ocean County. Roughly, about 75 miles one way. The first time I spoke to Diane who had given me the quote, she was a sweetheart and pleasant to speak with. I gave her the dates, address/township and the best time to start the move. On the day of the move, the movers came on time and properly stowed all of my items into a huge truck with one driver and two movers. Once arrived on a 2 acres estate, I was astonished on how fast and diligently it took. The move took less than 3 hours from start to finish. My driveway fits about 12 cars (about 250 feet long) with a side garage entrance into the lower level of the basement. The huge truck drove right through the driveway with complete ease with the direction of all boxes/furniture placed in the location it needed to be (they also asked where would I want a specific box/item be placed in) . I couldn’t done this without them! They made my entire move stress-free, convenient and successful. Don’t look elsewhere, give them a try! Ask for Diane! She’s amazing!

  This business is very unprofessional. They showed up the day of the move and didn’t want to work and was very rude and unprofessional. The owner Sam called and apologized and said he would make it right the next day. They never showed up. Instead he stopped answering the phone . We booked them over a month in advance and they left us stuck. Had to fine a different moving company and pay a higher amount because it was last minute. This place shouldn’t even be in business. They are a bunch of scam artist. Don’t even waste your time. Will also file a complaint with the BBB.

  Didn't show up on the day of moving!! We had booked them a few weeks in advance for June 5th Saturday at 10am moving date. A day before the moving date, we sent them an email around 5 to confirm; however to our disbelief later in the evening around 7:30, Sam the owner called us and said they will not come on Saturday because they don't have a truck and that was it. Evening before the planned move, we were baffled. After pleading so much, Sam said they will try to come on Sunday at 10:00 AM. On Sunday, his crew came early at 9:00 AM and when we said we asked for 10 AM due to small children in the house that we need to attend to - we were threatened to leave and find someone else. Again, after pleading with Sam on the call, because of lack of choice - we couldn't find someone last minute - we had to agree with him. He asked for big tips for the workers which we gave because they worked as expected in the very hot weather day. After the move, when we asked Sam for some discount for not coming on contracted date - Sam the owner was very rude and unprofessional and was not willing to give any discount. I would not hire him or recommend Big Sam moving unless you are ok with moving some other day than the scheduled day. We have never done business with anyone so rude and unprofessional.
