The whole undertaking from initial sales meeting with Steve to the actual move with Robert, Hank and crew was outstanding. We moved on New Year's Eve Day and the guys were punctual, professional and personable. We had basically no damage to any of our furniture or our home and everything was assembled and placed exactly where we wanted it. While slightly nervous beforehand, the day ended up being such a relief. They guys were also a pleasure to deal with throughout the move. All had great personalities, strong work ethics and made the move (almost) enjoyable. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a great moving service at a fair price. read less

I especially appreciated the careful way they packed all of my items. Nothing was damaged (as compared to many easily-avoided damages in my previous move with another company). At the end of the job they made an extra effort to confirm each piece of furniture and box had been placed in the right room of the house. They even helped put back together my Ikea bookshelf that fell apart while they were moving it (through no fault of theirs, particle board furniture has a tendency to do that!) Will definitely use them again if I have to move. read less

They quoted the lowest rate, highest pounds, and delivered everything perfectly. I was not "low Balled" with a low weight, only then to find out I would owe more money upon delivery.(that can happen even with a "binding" contract too) The weight was very accurate, and they delivered everything perfectly without my owing a penny more. They even stored my stuff locally, as I did not need the delivery for about 10 days later, at no additional charge. I highly recommend them. The salesman Steve Kendall was honest and fair. read less

As I was nearing the closing date to get out of my house and the boxes started to pile up, I realized I needed a professional to help me move: I couldn't handle the task of doing it on my own. Getting a pod was something I briefly considered, but after pricing them out and getting two other estimates from movers, I decided to go with Chris and Avatar. His rates were the best in comparison, not falsely underestimating the cost to outbid competitors, or up selling me with additional nickel and dime fees others told me were "standard." Chris provided confidence and reassurance, and Avatar had a good track record as evidenced by their online reviews and Atlas Quality Awards.
Day of the move, the guys showed up on time and killed it, easing all tensions and stress. They were careful and professional, accommodating, down to earth and made the whole thing fun, we put on some music and had a great time. Nothing seemed to be damaged and I feel we are in good hands!
As my stuff was moved out and put into storage, I will update my review when my move in to the new place is complete! read less

The packers arrived on time, loaded the contents of my home onto a clean truck. The price was competitve with other movers but the service I received from these guys made this decision to use Avatar a good one. read less

From the very start things went very smoothly. Steve C. arrived early to our estimate on one of the coldest Winter days Long Island has had this year. He was very pleasant and knowledgable and asked all the appropriate questions. His estimate on the number of boxes was very accurate. He sent the quote later that very afternoon and gave us a dollar amount that was fair. He made himself available in the next coming weeks for any question, big or small that I had for him. He always kept my mind at ease.
On the day of our move, Bob, Gino and a third man came to collect our boxes, bicycles, furniture and 5 precious surf boards (we packed them ourselves with bubble wrap in two surf board bags). The gentlemen packed our lamps, tv's and computer monitors along with wrapping our furniture and a glass top drafting table that was easily breakable. The gentlemen worked for three hours straight and were very professional and careful with our belongings.
Two weeks later we met the delivery tractor trailer along with Danny and Wayne at our storage unit. They arrived about a half hour earlier than expected. We received a call a few days prior to their arrival with a time and date of when we should meet them. Both Danny and Wayne were professional and carefully brought all of our items, big, small and some fragile into the storage until and helped us direct where to put the boxes. They both worked diligently and were very friendly.
Thank you again to all the helpful people we encountered from Avatar Relocation!! All of our belongings arrived safely and NOTHING was damaged. I would recommend them to family and friends. You all made our transition to Florida pleasant and always acted in a professional manner. Thanks again!...Steph and Paul H. read less
