      Moving

      We had an incredible experience with FlatRate Movers during our move from Brooklyn to Chappaqua. We have been using FlatRate Movers since 2014, and once again they exceeded our expectations. Adam, our estimator, was professional, responsive, and made the entire process feel organized and stress-free from the beginning. Everything he promised was delivered exactly as expected.

      The moving team was absolutely outstanding. This was a large two-day move involving packing, loading, storage, and delivery, and the crew never stopped working. They were unbelievably hardworking, careful with our furniture and fragile items, efficient, respectful, and maintained a positive attitude the entire time. It was honestly impressive to watch how coordinated and professional the entire team was.

      Moving is usually a stressful experience, but FlatRate made it smooth and manageable from start to finish. You can tell these guys truly care about doing the job right. We are extremely grateful for all of their hard work and would highly recommend FlatRate Movers to anyone looking for a reliable, professional moving company.

      Moving

      We had an excellent experience with FlatRate Moving while packing, moving, and storing the contents of our large apartment in Brooklyn Heights. The entire process was smooth and well organized from start to finish.

      Matt, the manager, was extremely professional and coordinated everything flawlessly. His planning and communication made what could have been a stressful move feel completely manageable.

      On moving day, Stephen, the foreman, and his team were fantastic—efficient, courteous, and highly professional. They handled everything with great care and kept the process moving quickly and smoothly.

      Overall, a truly great job by the entire team. We highly recommend FlatRate Moving to anyone looking for a reliable and professional moving company.

      Fantastic experience with FlatRate moving!

      The team arrived right on time, and from start to finish, they were polite, professional, and incredibly respectful of all my belongings. They took extra care with fragile items, wrapping and protecting everything thoroughly. I was especially impressed by how efficient they were - everything was done quickly but with great attention to detail. Moving can be stressful, but they made the whole process smooth and worry-free. Highly recommend!

      Just finished my 4th move....quick, efficient, easy as always

      From first phone call to the end of the move, everything went as smooth as I could have hoped. Everything well-explained, professional, and great moving teams. The move itself (one-bedroom) took about 1.5-2 hrs. Support staff was responsive with quick turn-around on the necessary COI for my co-op, and in following up in all regards. I highly recommend FlatRate.

      Friendly, Efficient and Quick

      Our moving team was friendly, efficient and quick. We had 3 Flat Rate moving staff members moved our items, although I do not remember the team members names they were amazing! They arrived at my home on time, assessed what was being moved, went back to their truck and got the necessary tools and proceeded to quickly and carefully pack all of our belongings. They packed up a 1 bedroom apartment in 2 hours and arrived at the new location quickly (i was moving between boroughs). Unpacking went just as quick and efficiently and we were all moved into the new location within a couple of hours and they unpacked everything with the same care and efficiency that they packed. The support staff were also very helpful, they were quick to provide the COI and had an open line of communication. I recieved text messages, and emails to check in on any updates of the items being moved and the status of the move during moving day. I would highly recommend flat rate moving to my friends and family.

Wonderful Experience.

Highly recommend FlatRate movers to anyone looking for a professional and friendly team. Had to change our moving plans due to Covid-19 and had some back and forth along the way because of building requirements but always got a quick response from FlatRate. The movers were quick, efficient, and did an excellent job!

Local move from New York, NY to Brooklyn, NY

Poor and unprofessional moving experience.

Beware of using FlatRate, unfortunately the gap between what they promise to what really happens is huge.

The movers basically don't care about your furniture and your personal belongings and not only break them but also just place the belongings on the dirty roads of NYC without wrapping or covering them. Extremely problematic during COVID 19 times (e.g., they put our carpets and kitchenware wide open on the street roads!). My wife is pregnant and that impose a big risk to her health and the team couldn't care less about it..

Worst is the customer service during and after the move, they pretty much ignore you and you can only get a hold of them when they want to sell their services! Do not be confused by the friendly appearance of the Sales team and communication before your move..

Long-distance move from New York, NY to Tenafly, NJ

Worst moving company in NY.

Stay away! We moved from NYC to NJ last week and booked packing and moving with Flatrate. The movers came a day before to pack and didn't have enough supplies so they only packed half of the stuff. They said they will come with more supplies on the moving day. The day after I started seeing them moving our stuff without boxes, I asked them what's going on and they said they don't have boxes, only after I demanded they will pack everything they said they will go to get boxes. When we got to our new home I saw that the baby bed has many dents, when I asked the mover he said yes sorry I didn't have enough blankets so I didn't wrap it. They leaned our tvs against the wall and we didn't check. The next morning when we came to install them we saw our living room TV (a new 65' samsung tv) had a cracked screen which the movers where just hiding from us by positioning the TV against the wall. We called Flatrate multiple times and we're asked to file a report but it's been a week and no one reached us back. They sounded so nice and professional on the phone, please don't buy that like we did and don't use Flatrate moving.
