Transtar Moving Systems

i preface this review with the fact that i have moved at least 13 times in the last two decades.  out of all of the professional movers i've used, transtar has been the absolute best, bar none.  bill miller and his crew were astounding.  we underestimated our box count by about 40.  bill and co didn't even flinch.  they just got it done, super quickly, with NO damage to anything, whatsoever.  we had ridiculous items like two crates filled with weights, and a heavy/speed bag set up.  ok - so, my husband and i couldn't lift these crates TOGETHER.  these guys carried each crate on their own.  shortly thereafter, another one trekked on through with our heavy bag (about 100 lbs alone).  though i dont advocate for making things super heavy on purpose, it is amazing that these guys can handle what you've got, no questions asked.  on top of all of that, everyone somehow maintained a calm, cheerful demeanor.  what movers smile when they're carrying a hundred lb bag?!  transtar movers!  it is almost as if they thrive on the physical activity.i'd never heard of transtar.  i'd been using another mover for my last few moves.  i picked transtar, on a random recommendation from a friend, and i'm going to go with transtar from here on out.thanks to bill and the rest of the transtar team!!  you turned a horrible experience into a fun filled memory.

Transtar moved us out of our house and into storage for the time being.  Everything went better than I could have hoped!  The price was fair, communications both before and during the move were excellent.  Ryan H., Dave R., Reese H. And Lee B.  did an excellent job for us.  They arrived right on time, toured the house with us and got right to work.  The team has neat, friendly & courteous, very efficient, and finished 15 minutes ahead of schedule.  All furniture was disassembled and well-wrapped, floor were covered and large pictures and mattresses boxed-up.  It was a pretty hot day and we have a lot of furniture & boxes that required 1 3/4 straight trucks.  We had no problems at all.

We moved with Transfer a few times. Each experience has been a positive one. I was unaware that Memorial Day weekend was one of the busiest moving days of the year. You would never know with Transfer. It was another normal day. The crew was on time and very professional. The office staff was very helpful. I would recommend highly. Overall great experience.

Fantastic company from first call and scheduling with a sales rep.  Scott Davis was professional in helping me decide on a moving company.  Any phone calls were professional.  Packers Frank B and Corey were outstanding.  Movers lead by Ryan and team Corey and Andrew couldn't have been better.  From arrival to departure they were a real team.  It is amazing to watch my entire home get packed in storage containers that will be in there climate controlled facility.  It took them 7 hrs to wrap and store.  My house was left neat and am hoping after 4-5 months this TEAM will deliver to my new home.  Nothing but 5 STARS!Thanks again for making this move easy and stress free.

I am writing this review on here, after speaking with the company reps, and I can tell you this is categorically one of the worst moving companies, on par with a local guy with a truck. Some issues we had: 1) They sent the wrong size truck. So at 10pm at night on the 3rd day of packing, they had to unload everything b/c it did not all fit. Driver/foreman told his boss at the beginning of the job, but was told he was wrong.2) They "wrote down the wrong day" for the delivery on the other side. This was a large interstate move, our very small, toddler and preschooler were sent to my mom's house to manage the move and the whole thing turned into a logistical nightmare. 3) no pads or cardboard put down until we made a fuss. I've never seen that before. and the crew dinged our doorways. most of the guys they sent were not professional movers, just box lifters4) Left our things in the rain. Enough said.5) Personalities were really strong and combative/unprofessional; stressful to have people like that in your house. 6) we were a corporate move/which was a whole new level of crazy because there were multiple managers and coordinators involved and they did not all speak to each other. Case in point: We were "homeless" for a week because the coordinator told us that is how long it would take to get our stuff from Philly suburbs to Baltimore suburbs. Afterwards, it turns out that was incorrect and we could have had our things right away.Not a Fan.EDITED 9/4/15: Mmmm. No. I pretty much stayed on the phone with our move coordinator and yet another supervisor in NJ the entire time and they admitted that all the above were inappropriate, but that doesn't change the facts.  This company is a disaster, and the right hand doesn't know what the left hand is doing, as response below shows. Pretty important requirement for a company in THE LOGISTICS BUSINESS. Hire at your own risk.
