*UPDATE: The owner contacted me (I can’t confirm or deny if it was because of this review, as I simply don’t know). He remembered the brackets, said he wanted to make things right, and followed up by replacing the brackets, which were delivered to my house. I would add 2 more stars as result of corrected action. *UPDATE END *Original post: They helped a family member move from my house, and left not just snow, but dirt/oil mixed in the snow through the house past their roll matts.This came from the back of a uhaul…

5-star Google reviewMegan O.a month ago
New Move Transportation were amazing to work with! Chad and his team were prompt, efficient and very well prepared. They moved a beast of an old piano for us and handled it with no issues or hiccups. Chad was quick to reply to questions, concerns and updates. Excellent service! Friendly and respectful group of guys. Thank you!

Chad was professional, understanding, nice and easy to deal with from start to finish. He and his team did an exceptional job with our move. They worked quickly while still being very careful with our belongings. I’d highly recommend them anytime.

Chad & his crew are amazing to work with, easy going and show up when you need them most! Good communication and fast and efficient. 10/10 service and highly recommended by my husband and I.
5-star Google reviewJustin J.a week ago
New Move Transport completed two moves for me—first moving the contents of my home into storage after selling my house, and then moving everything from storage into our new home. From my initial contact through both moves, the owner and his staff were extremely professional, courteous, and respectful. They arrived with all the appropriate equipment to get the job done properly and safely. They worked hard, hustled to get the job done efficiently, and took great care with our belongings throughout both moves.
