In their own words
They are the absolute worse movers I have ever used. Increased the price when they delivered my things to over 33% and their price he quoted was the highest I received but I went with them because Amir (the owner) was a terrific salesman at the time and promised everything would go smoothly and his price at the end would be less than quoted because he "built in" a 10% increase!!! I don't know why my name comes up as Ronnie Catalan. It is not.
So I will have to address so many issues on this reply and I hope you (My future customer) will have the time to read it all (I guess you already read her side of the story), … More
WARNING! STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY! STOLEN merchandise, many things stolen! CRUSHED boxes! BROKEN things! They also didn't deduct the $25.00 (when you book the moving date) off the charge they charge you that $25.00 instead of deducting it like they tell you they are going to do but they don't so if you see it deducted on the receipt, it isn't! Trust me it isn't! I figured out the bill and the $25.00 dollars NOT deducted!
Now she using a different name, as we wrote before she use multiple names and address, she is complaining about the $25 deposit which we always deduct from your cost, she did not even paid for her move, she tried to use a stolen credit card … More
They tried to bribe me to take my review down. ======= This site does not allow zero stars. This is the only place I would give zero stars. Stay away at all cost. They quoted me $400, and then charged me almost double I was provided with an "estimate". So I don't get a fixed rate. It's a way for them to charge you whatever they want. As you can see from the comment from the owner he has confirmed my above statement.
This Review is from 03/01/2013 (from Yelp) and this was my reply to him: 3/6/2013 Please read the below comment which i sent to Jason after he placed … More
Do not use 201 Movers for long distance moves. I have moved twice previously from coat to coast, with relatively little damage to my belongings. This move was only from NJ to Chicago, but several pieces of my furniture were damaged beyond repair and the many of the rest scratched. I packed the boxes myself, they arrived in good condition. Unfortunately, I trusted 201 Movers to wrap and disassemble/assemble the furniture, which turned out to be a task complete beyond their abilities.
Dear Jussi, We are sorry to read that your moving experience did not meet your level of satisfaction. … More
Worst moving experience. Don't get trapped with this moving company. we were moving to Ohio and hired this company for our move. Initially the Amir came to our apt and gave a quote of $1600 for the move and on the day of the moving , they increased it to $2300, which is 50% increase. Don't have these guys pack for u , since they would pack it loosely and purposefully increase the number of boxes and increase the sqft and thus increase ur final cost.
Dear Mr. Mothukuri, i'm sorry to read that your experience with Movers201 was not as smooth as you like it to be, … More
WARNING!!!! The good reviews are all FAKE! Warning! This is the WORST moving company ever! Read all, you'll be glad you did! STOLEN PROPERTY, CRUSHED BOXES, BROKEN THINGS, INVADING my Privacy! Amir the owner responded to my post of this bad review, he is a liar! I, that morning confirmed with him what had to be moved!
This review was writing by a Scam artist which use multiple names and who admit on a record to use a stolen Credit card to pay for the move she booked, She lied about the move size as the items we moved filled her entire house (she moved … More
This is the most awful moving company ever. My family (all women) and I needed movers because we had alot of heavy furniture. The guys they sent us were moving efficiently as we thought but the company sent us a different truck other than what was described. We had no problem with the truck because we aren't picky. We had a move time of four hours and everyone pitched in to help. By the end of the move time The guys only moved light boxes and left all the heavy furniture and heavy boxes.
Hello There, To start let me tell you that i'm very sorry that your move with us did not meet or exceed your expectation as we are doing are very best and this very busy … More
Hired Movers 201 with 4 movers and a truck. At the time of contacting I requested that movers use shoe covers while moving in furniture to newly carpeted new house. Amir promised that they will do so. However, they did not have shoe covers. Movers said they were not told by Amir to do so. After calling Amir, he said(or lied) that he gave them shoe covers. However, no one could locate it. Finally they covered their shoes with plastic wrappers. Secondly, they did not take care of my stuff while moving.

In their own words
I cannot express enough what amazing experience with this moving company from start to finish. The team was professional, punctual, efficient, and handled everything with so much care. Moving can be incredibly stressful, but they made the entire process smooth and easy. Chino and Ricardo were friendly, hardworking, and went above and beyond to make sure all of my belongings arrived safely and were placed exactly where I needed them.
We had the most incredible experience with 201 Movers, starting with Amir the owner who came to our home twice, first for the initial estimate and then second to adjust as our needs changed. The estimate was competitive. Edwin, the foreman and his team were extremely professional. They packed up our home and then moved things to two different locations. We had a piece of furniture that did not fit the doorway, and they took it apart very carefully. We highly recommend this business!
Very happy with their service last month! I first used Movers 201 back in 2016 and knew they were the only reliable company I could use for my next move. The movers (for both moves 2016 and 2026) were very careful with my furniture, despite some extremely heavy pieces. Professional, no surprise fees on moving day, quote stayed the same, everything was on time. Highly recommend Amir's team!
Amir and his incredible group of guys were absolutely amazing!!!! It is emotionally hard to leave a home of 30 years, but the men were so caring and kind and took the time to talk and involve me during that busy day. They were just so professional! I highly recommend this wonderful company. You’ll not find a better moving company anywhere!!!
