Moving guys were awesome. They worked efficiently and quickly and with smiles on their faces. I recommend this team to others.

Alex and his crew did a fantastic job this morning. The whole move was perfectly coordinated and went without any damages to our stuff or property.

I have used Active Moving two times this year for transporting my things to Florida. Both times the movers were extremely careful with my belongings and acted professional.

The movers were extremely helpful and professional. Our moving team came on time and took great care of our belongings within the estimated timeframe. Very happy.

I would like to thank the whole team for our hassle free relocation cross country. I highly recommend their services and wish them more business and more happy customers like me!

I've ordered this company to move my baby grand piano this Friday. The movers looked like they knew what they were doing. Happy with the service.

I would definitely recommend Active to those in need of a professional moving company which really cares about its customers. I am very pleased with how our family members were treated during the move. The workers were very professional and polite and no damages were made to our belongings. Recommend.

It was an uneasy task to move our stuff to Arizona since we have a lot of artwork and paintings but our moving team handled it perfectly. Everything arrived on time and without damages. Great work!

Serge and his team went above and beyond to make this move a very smooth and less stressful process. Everyone was super helpful and efficient and friendly. If I ever move again, I will use their service in a blink of an eye.

They lost my new TV, agreed to reimburse me partially for another TV. Instead they sent me check for $60, and the letter says that they reimburse me based on weight of the lost item. So disappointed! There were such a nice people who packed me. Nobody knew where they lost my TV. Now, 9 months later they sent me $60.

I've moved many times but this company was the absolute worse company I've ever encountered! Please check all reviews and BBB before using them! They will quote some tiny fine print for any and all issues that may come up. The price tripled, the pick up was hours late, the packing was minimal -not 1 box marked, all clothes thrown in a box with hangers, glass broken. Ana was extremely rude and didn't have anything correct.

Delivery was a nightmare! Over a week late and only 1 person to deliver. He demanded an extra $250 to him personally for delivery and no one from office would answer phone. Absolute worse experience ever!

Worst moving experience ever. They changed the price on the day they showed up for $600 more. I asked them to deliver on Saturday when I get the quote and they said they would make it happen, but they delivered a week later on a weekday, so I have to use a PTO to do the moving. And when I called and negotiate with them, they gave me this strong attitude and blamed it was all my responsibility. Please save your time and money and don't hire them as your moving company!

They are unprofessional, was quoted a price after we told them exactly how many boxes we hand and the dimensions. When they arrived, the price went up by over $1000. The person who came was rude and kept on saying that the estimate doesn't matter. It should if we tell you exactly what you are moving. Then, when they delivered the stuff, we had to pay an additional $600 for things they call post moving fees.

They charged for long distance fee, elevator fee, and a bunch of other things that should of been in the original cost since they knew all of this in advance. Why should I pay an elevator fee when the elevator makes your job so much easier. On top of that, they damaged some of the items, and a few boxes were damaged and crushed. I wouldn't ever use these guys to move a box across the street, straight ripoff and horrible experience. On top of that, their customer service is non-existence after they have your money. You have been warned!

Very happy with my choice of movers. On time, professional and careful. Will recommend and use again.

Worst movers ever. Changed price on the day of the move, and then walked off the job. The very definition of bait and switch. Dishonest, unethical, amoral, the very worst of the moving industry. Don't trust Ivan or anyone here if you value your stuff.

The movers were fantastic. Theyve demonstrated only a positive attitude and their level of skills was terrific.

Ive had to change the moving date three times and it was no problem for them. Overall awesome experience. Will use again.

Recently I ram into an issue with another company in NYC and they cancel my pickup, As was almost end of the month and i need to get out of the apt and start my transition to another state ACTIVE MOVER return our email in seconds and schedule us for next day, They arrived on time, give us all the details and cost base on our current boxes count and furniture, not hide cost. The disassemble and pack all the furniture including the ones in the bedrooms and label all the boxes and other item and provide with a manifest. Ones items arrive (7days) the build all the furniture and where super gentle with all the boxes TV's and other items. Really recommended.

I want to leave few words about my experience with Active Moving, Inc. I was looking for a professional moving company and I've never done it before, so you can imagine my worry and my fears. I did my online research and that's where I found Active Moving and I found Paul and I am so glad I trusted him with my business. I wanted to tell you Paul that I am going to tell everybody about Active Moving and the wonderful service that you supplied me. Thank you!

Hey Active Moving. My name is Jennifer and you recently assisted me with my move from New York city to Dallas Texas. Very very good experience. Very good service. Professional movers, definitely doing a great job, especially moving grand piano. Also also the packaging of all books and dishes was very helpful as well. I just wanted to say thank you and I will definitely will be doing business with you again and recommending you to everyone as well.

Show up late, the worst movers, and trying to charge more money, one advice, stay away from active moving, you can not trust criminal like that with your property .

I called Vitaly (Aleks) this afternoon and explained that I had had another moving company try to help me with a 550 pound table top - they'd failed. Vitaly and his 2 guys showed up within an hour and flawlessly (I've never seen anything like it) put an enormous 12 foot by 4 foot table into the elevator and into my office. We were all incredibly impressed. This review below is literally unfathomable to me. Vitaly could not have been more professional, efficient, etc.‎

Thank you very much!! The moving crew was professional, skilled and quick. I will definitely use them again for my next move!‎

I had to move an upright piano to the second floor. I called several piano moving companies but when they came and saw the job they refused to do it, claiming that stairway is too narrow. Active Moving, Inc was the only company which told me that they can do it and they did it. I was really really amazed by the work of piano movers. They are smart and strong. Thank you guys again.
