Keith and Chuck handled our move into a 5th floor walkup apartment out of a PODS container. Due to some construction outside the building it was more complicated and longer haul than expected but they still got the job done on time with no issues. Everything was handled well and undamaged, including some larger items, and they were very nice and easy to work with. I would use them again for a future move.

I had an exceptional experience with Promove when moving my son’s one-bedroom apartment in NYC. The two movers, Azar and Courtney, were absolutely phenomenal! They arrived on time, displayed utmost professionalism, and handled the job with incredible skill. Watching them pack the 10-foot truck was like witnessing a master Tetris game—they strategically arranged and rearranged furniture to maximize space, fitting everything perfectly. Hired for two hours, they completed the job in just 1 hour and 20 minutes, working efficiently without cutting corners. Their attention to detail was impressive; they even laid down moving blankets to protect items from touching the ground during loading. I’m beyond impressed with their care and expertise and will never attempt a DIY move again. I highly recommend Promove especially Azar and Courtney, for anyone needing a reliable and skilled moving team!

My movers were incredibly understanding about an issue with my box truck rental and offered advice to resolve the issue. They were flexible when my time slot had to change due to a five hour delay. They wrapped things carefully and securely so that everything was in great shape after a six hour drive out if state. Super pleasant, professional and helpful!

Great help with moving, even with no elevator!

— Hannah M.

Movers | Asap Movers

Overall, the move was wonderful! The movers were kind, efficient, and careful with our things. Reaching the company before the move to confirm details was impossible. I did not get a return call and often received a “this number is not accepting calls” message. It also seems like the movers did not receive the correct information I left in the notes about the elevator and needing a handcart/dolly. They DID show up and completed the move without issue, though a couple of the movers were running late (they did text to let me know). The rating is based on the final result (and not the process getting to moving day—which was a bit stressful). Overall, great job!
