| Great Scott -- just moved and they were affordable, on time, and careful with all of our stuff. |

+1 for Bookstore. They were recommended to me IRL by a few folks and I know DCUM hypes them up as well, but seriously, easiest move I ever did (we moved silver spring --> bethesda). They were fairly priced (I got quotes from a few companies), the crew was great and the move was efficient. Nothing broken and no issues. I feel like I sound like an ad, but they were great! |

+1. I used JK moving for a move a few years ago. They were punctual and did a good smooth job. Although the team that arrived only had one English speaker, the move coordinator, who normally doesn't work on Saturdays, still called me just before they arrived, in the middle of our move and after they finished to check up on what was going on, if I had any questions/concerns and to follow-up. They did damage one furniture piece, but they also handled the repair and compensation very well and satisfactorily. And, to be fair, the damage was due to the fact that I had bought the piece at a discount because it was a damaged/repaired piece originally (and the repair was internal, so not visible). They broke the first repair job, but they paid the cost to have it repaired again. No questions asked and it was handled professionally and relatively quickly. |

Another +1 for Bookstore. Used them twice and they were amazing. |

We used Bookstore for our past few moves. They weren’t always the cheapest we contacted, but they did a good job.
On the last move, they accidentally dropped a solid wood coffee table into our cork floor. It took a giant chunk out of the floor and slightly damaged the table. It was truly an accident but the staff doing the move were quite proactive about addressing. They sent a really good furniture repair guy to take care of the table and asked me to contact the vendor who did the floor for a quote. The furniture guy was able to fix both issues while he was here and the repair looks great. I contrast this with a mover I used in NYC who told me basically to get lost when they showed up late, messed up my stuff, and caused me to have to bribe a building super to get use of an elevator after official move-in hours. Paying a little extra for having a company that cares about their work is worth it. |

Vote against JK here. Had the complete opposite experience. Awful. |

| We used Germantown moving, a local small business, and were very satisfied. Their quote was not the best, but very reasonable. |
