Showed up early finished quicker than predicted in spite of moving more than we indicated when getting the estimate. Very careful with all our items.

Germantown Moving and Storage moved me from Washington DC to Delaware. My first major move in 21 years. The Owner, George, and his family helped take a lot of the stress out of the move by providing upfront pricing, letting me know what I needed to do to help make it a good move for everyone and, at the last minute swooped in to help me pack. Their movers were polite, professional and very efficient on both ends (packing/loading and unpacking and setting up the big furniture in my new home). I highly recommend them (& have to many folks already).

We chose Germantown Moving and Storage based on the ratings and reviews in Checkbook. Of the top rated companies, their hourly rate was significantly less expensive than the others ($160/hour for three men and a truck). They did an outstanding job, and were also extremely pleasant to work with. The job took two hours less than estimated, and they reduced the price accordingly.

I received bids from 4 different companies before moving from a 4 bedroom house after living there for 21 years. Germantown Moving was by far the best bid, so I went with them. During the move, it became clear that I had confused some of the bids and that Germantown had only planned on packing my dishware, not my entire kitchen. The mistake was definitely mine, not theirs, but she just quoted me a more than reasonable price to finish the packing, even though I'm sure it really threw off her personal schedule. I'm grateful for the work they did and would definitely call on them again.

Same comment as one before. This is the same company as the other one listed in the Consumers' Checkbook. Please note this company is not a registered DC moving company. As of a court date in June they do not have a business license to work in DC. Consumers' Checkbook may want to make sure all the companies listed in the checkbook are legal and licensed entities or is in compliance with whatever business regulations there are.

We have used Germantown Moving & Storage multiple times and each time they have exceeded our expectations. The office staff was easy to work with and answered all of our questions. The crew on Moving day was organized and very efficient and the move took less time than quoted! Great company!

I hired them to move my sister from an apt to another. The most notable was that they were as nice as you can imagine.

Took 3x time longer than they anticipated, and therefore cost 3x times as much as we anticipated. They sent too few trucks and men, but those who were present did a good job.

They offered me a no nonsense quote with no extra fees or charges and multiple availability dates. They arrived ahead of schedule and finished faster than their estimate. I paid only for the actual time they spend on my move. The movers helped me get all my furniture to the exact spot I needed it and paid special attention to all boxes I labeled "fragile". I was surprisingly happy with their service; both with the crew doing the move and with the business people who set up the move.
