1-star Google reviewFamily P.8 months ago
THEYRE THIEVES!!! If I could give them a zero star rating I would. Not only was our estimate OVER a thousand dollars more they knowingly STOLE my step ladder after commenting on how much they liked it. They stole a smaller one too but I told them I really didn’t care about that one. Then they sent me pictures of it to prove it. The guys complained about having to move hung belongings from the closets and full drawers when the boss told us that’s the way they do it.

Dear Family Porcaro, I was quite surprised to receive this review because you had a very good move. I'd like to address each and every one of the issues you mention in your review. 1, No one knowingly stole your step stools. They were … More

Awful. I recommend no one utilize their services and pray that if you are purchasing a home that these movers are not inside your residence. The older man is extremely disrespectful and I was shocked by the way I was spoken to by a 50-60 …

Ms. Pellacani was not my customer, she was the new owner of a home in which I was moving out the previous owner. When Ms. Pellacani arrived with what I assume was her mother she became irritated that we were not done and the house wasn't empty.

After storing my stuff for 2 weeks, two hours before delivery, they texted stating that all the price agreements and estimate was null & void and switched me to a flat fee for delivery that was $1,500 more than the agreed upon price. …

Thank you for the kind words about my team. I regret that you are unhappy but the fact is that we moved and stored much more (almost double) the amount of household goods than originally estimated. The scope of work changed thus the price did as well.

DO NOT USE THEM!! It was a terrible experience using them start to finish. Misrepresentation of costs and services and expensive furniture pieces were not packed properly and were considerably damaged.

My apologies that you were not satisfied. We did much more work, packing and taking of goods than originally represented by you at time of estimate. Local moving is always estimated on an hourly basis because it can vary based on volumes of … More

Hi, this is Josh. Just to clarify—Wawa is a convenience store and gas station. Most Wawa locations have a designated parking lot with clearly marked parking spaces. These spots are free to use, and anyone stopping by is welcome to park in them. The reason I reported your vehicle is because it was parked directly in front of the gas station, not in a marked spot. That area is not meant for parking—it’s typically used for traffic flow or fire lanes.

This review has been reported to Google as fraudulent. It is not from a customer of my business, and it does not refer to any services that my business provides.

You posted this review as T.A.H concealing you identity making it impossible to know who you are or what job it was. Secondly I never received any letter from an attorney concerning anything.like this.

We are very disappointed with this company! At first we had a estimate done by the owner who very proudly said that just by looking at our stuff he knew the weight and how many trucks and men we would need to get our moving done, just to …

Ana, I regret that you are less than satisfied. I never deceived you or misrepresented myself, my company or my estimate. It was just that an estimate and I was very up front and clear about that.

We way overpaid for a bad move! We liked Joe Delicato the owner when he provided an estimate after a thorough walk thru. He had a firm grasp on contents to be moved. Sad thing we never had any more contact with Joe after the initial …

I apologize that you were not completely satisfied with the move. Allow me to correct a few misunderstandings. First, You paid for a 4 man crew even though I had originally estimated a 5 man crew.

5-star Google reviewBill D.5 months ago
I had an outstanding experience with Delicato Transport from start to finish. The initial sales process was clear, professional, and pressure-free. Joe took the time to answer all my questions and provided a detailed, transparent estimate. Communication was consistent and proactive, which immediately gave me confidence in the company. On moving day, the team was punctual, organized, and extremely careful with my belongings. They worked efficiently while still taking the time to protect furniture and fragile items.

Thank you Bill for the review and your kind words and continues confidence, both are greatly appreciated. It was a pleasure working with you.

Definitely recommend Delicato Movers! We moved from NJ to upstate NY. Joe’s excellent estimate was actually a few dollars more than the final price. James, Jerry and Desean were professional and courteous and didn’t stop until the job was done. They were very careful with the large pieces of furniture that had to be brought up a long set of stairs. They made the stress of moving hassle free and we couldn’t be more satisfied! Well done guys!

Thank you for your kind words and I will pass them on to the crew. We are pleased that your move went well and that you were satisfied. It was a pleasure working with you.

The team that came to our Home to move us out was fantastic. They were respectful, nice and treated all our furniture, boxes and belongings with great care. They even moved my large potted plants to the garage even though it wasn’t part of the original list. I hope we get the same team to move it all back to our new Home. We would highly recommend Delicato movers.!

Thank you for your positive feedback. I will be sure to provide the same crew on the delivery out of storage to assure a smooth delivery. Thank you again it's been a pleasure working with you.

Joe and his team helped move my mom. They packed everything neatly and without causing any damage. The team was professional and courteous throughout the process. There were no surprises at the end of the move. Joe went above and beyond for us, and I would highly recommend him to family and friends.
