Mike’s Moving

Mikes moving company is phenomenal! Steven and Lenny were my movers this past Sunday. They were prompt, polite and quick as can be. I have never used movers before so didn’t know quite what to expect. I’m horrible at packing and they literally moved everything into the truck. Even ridiculous IKEA bags I had stuffed. I moved from a first floor 2 bedroom into a 3 story town home. I was blown away how quickly they moved everything. And not to mention the care they took with all my belongings. They blanketed and wrapped everything, even my cheap little IKEA table. Everything is in its place and without any damage. Highly recommend!!!

I used Mike’s moving a few weeks ago to move into a two bedroom high rise condo. Needless to say it was not the easiest job, due to the fact that my condo was on the opposite side of the building in relation to the service elevator. My movers were Pablo and Steven. They worked efficiently and quickly. I paid $ 65/​HR and they moved FAST (which $ 65/​HR is relatively cheap compared to other companies I called). It took them 3 hours to move my stuff from one location (east Orlando) to the other location (downtown Orlando-​30 minutes away). They took my furniture apart that needed to be taken apart, and put it back together just as they found it. They were professional and got the job done without any damages. In total, my move came out to $ 240 for 3 hrs. Highly recommended!

overall it was a great experience. I would have given them a full 5 stars but we did have a slight issue. Mike was quick to resolve the issue though. They were on time, prompt and very courteous. They made sure everything that needes to be wrapped was done properly and if we needed an extra piece wrapped they were willing to do that. Definitely would still recommend them.

These guys are awesome! They were quick and careful with my future. I will do business with them again. A+++

After much research (and trust me, I did a lot!), I used Mike’s for a local move here in Orlando, and it was amazing. The movers were prompt, fast, careful with my belongings, and professional all while moving my apartment from a 3^rd floor to a 2^nd floor on an extremely hot summer Florida day. I know I wouldn’t have been able to make this move without them. I would absolutely recommend Mike’s for anyone looking to move in the area; I will definitely use them again should I make another local move!

My roommates and I have used Mike’s movers twice now, and they do not disappoint ! Very professional and quick, they make sure to get the job done and nothing gets damaged in the process. I recommend them to anyone who wants to make moving a stress free event! I would give them 10 stars if I could :)

They were recommended by a friend who had good success with them, However mine was not so good. They arrived with a truck not big enough, it was the one man’s first day moving and the other was only 21. I have a large armorie that I have moved 5 times by now I KNOW WHAT WORKS MOVING IT. THEY WOULD NOT EVEN TRY MY SUGGESTION. They spent at least 45 minutes on it. A move that my two daughter and their boyfriends 6 months earlier took 2 hours. They spent over 3 hrs. The next day the owner called and said they had found a couple of my vintage playboys and said they would drop them of that day. After a week i called he said he would mail them, It has been three weeks I still have not received them. They worked hard just not smart!

The worst part about Mike’s Moving… is Mike.
The two movers he sent out (pretty sure we agreed on 3) were extremely friendly and more than willing to do anything we asked of them. They were pretty careful, though we did find some scratches and chips on the furniture it was nothing that we shouldn’t have expected.
The infuriating portion of this endeavor is the complete lack of foresight, planning, intelligence, and personal accountability that the owner, Mike, exudes. After the initial phone call he was content to not speak to me until they showed up at my house apparently. I called three days before (on a Friday afternoon) to confirm my move. When I hadn’t heard back from him by Sunday I gave him another call. He returned my call Monday morning just 30 minutes before they were to arrive and sounded irritated at my persistence. He also instructed me that his truck would have no issue hauling our 3 rooms worth of furniture. It was apparent when the dilapidated unmarked U-​haul showed up in my driveway that they would be making multiple trips.
Perhaps the gesture that Mike did to really drive home his lethargic demeanor was to not return any of my phone calls after the move had been completed. He is well beyond having a lack of customer service. A more accurate statement, in my opinion, would be that he just doesn’t care.

I have used Mike’s Moving 2x. They are professional, prompt and courteous. Most definitely will use them on my returned to Florida. Prices are most reasonable… give them a try.

The two gentlemen were very careful with our items and respectful and courteous throughout the process. My only concern was the six hour time from beginning to end, as I expected a speedier process for a such a small 2-​bedroom move with no appliances. All-​in-​all, I would certainly recommend Mike’s Moving to friends, as well as use them again myself.

My fiancé and I were a bit hesitant to book a moving service but we lived on the third floor of our apartment and when we saw the rates for Mike’s Moving we decided to give it a try. We’d only pay a little more for movers than a Uhaul and we’d save time and energy! The movers were fantastic-​very professional, broke everything down and handled everything with great care. They really worked hard especially moving our things down three flights of stairs! The movers were friendly, pleasant and got the job done very quick. They moved our 2 bedroom apartment 20 – 30 minutes away into a house and got the job done in less than 2.5 hours. We were downright amazed! I would hire these guys again in a heartbeat.
My only concern was that while Mike’s Moving was fantastic booking me just a few days in advance because we were moving a bit last minute, we didn’t know what time to expect them as they said ‘afternoon’ and would not give me a better time frame. However, this may be because we booked only days in advance and the job before us may have been unclear. The movers were very nice to give us a call 45 minutes ahead of time-​they were quite early! Mike had told us afternoon and the movers arrive minutes after 12:00-we were a bit rushed at the end! However, it is better to be early in my opinion, my only piece of advice is to try to give a better time frame but again this may have been due to our last minute move.
Overall, a great bunch of guys, and as someone who has never hired movers before that was very nervous to do so, I can say with confidence I would not at all hesitate to call these movers again.

Mike– your guys did a great job. Andre and Brian were professionals. Arrived on time and were quick and helpful. Moving from a 3^rd floor is not easy and they did a wonderful job. The whole process was quick and easy from the start. Once you sign the contract you don’t have to worry. You are in the book and they will be there when scheduled. This is my 4^th moving experience and the best. I like that you don’t pay anything until the job is done. I will definitely call you again when my son returns from overseas for his next move. Thank you and thank Andre and Brian.

IMPORTANT TO KNOW BEFORE HIRING THIS COMPANY!
The 2 movers who were sent to do the actual moving were awesome and on time. They were 2 nice, gentle guys and pleasent to work with… But if you absolutely have to call Mike on the phone however, he’s NOT the nicest nor friendliest man on the block. I called to CONFIRM my own move because I didn’t hear from anyone around 8 am, DAY OF and to ask about boxes. I understand it was last minute and they couldn’t get any from the warehouse.. but damn, he didn’t have to chew my head off! Don’t expect to receive a nice pleasant voice on the other line if you call for any reason. That man gets 0 stars!
Unfortunately, I cannot give an overall 5 star review even if only the movers were awesome (only 2 stars, one for each guys). They suffer from the company’s lack of customer service, which counts for everything!
I mentioned that I liked them on Facebook upon getting a message to save an extra $ 5 after signing the contract, and the movers had no clue and just said it was already included… which was not! Needless to say, I unlike them bc it didn’t work. No one checked or even bothered before sending the movers.
Also, my brother in law used them for their move and their new freshly painted wall was heavily scratched during the move. If you send evidence of it to Mike, it will be IGNORED. You have been WARNED!
For the record, I hardly ever write reviews and that speaks volumes.

these guys were the best, I can tell you the most honest, fair, neat guys, victor an foster [john] did an outstanding job. mikes company was the most honest company in the moving business I ever dealt with, what company stops the clock when it starts to rain, couldn’t believe it. I highly recommend mikes they were just great.

I had originally used Mike’s Moving last year through a Groupon deal for an inter-​complex move. I had a great experience and even recommended them to two other friends who were equally happy with their service. This year I have had to move again so I called Mike’s Moving. I was met with the same kindness from the movers and they look great care of my items when loading, unloading, and moving my items. The deal I received for this move was even better than my last move. This was due to Mike’s genuine concern for customers and wanting to maintain a great customer base (which speaks volumes about the ownership). This is why I will continue to use them for my moves and recommend their services to others. Out of the 4 moves I have experienced (2 personal moves & 2 moves of friends) with Mike’s Moving it has been nothing, but a great experience. And no other company can beat their quality of services and price!

Great experience with Mike’s moving while I was in Orlando. On time, professional and careful with my stuff. A+!! I live in STL now and wish they had a branch here to help me move my stuff.

I called and spoke to Mike for about ten seconds and could tell he was a jerk. I asked for a date and then once I mentioned Groupon he was suddenly booked. Stay away from this schmuck and his shady dealings. He was rude and talked down to me. I would never use this company.

I used Mike’s Moving twice in the last month: once to move items from my old apartment to a storage unit and then a second time from the storage unit to my new apartment. I found the company on craigslist but I also believe that they have an active groupon going on right now. Both times the movers were on time and very pleasant. They moved my items with care and broke down and assembled furniture as needed. They also shrink wrapped my sofa and dresser. Both jobs only took 2 hours each. The movers did not pressure me for tips which made tipping them much more enjoyable. I did have some minor scratches on my furniture but luckily they were not in noticeable places. At the end of the move I was very happy with the services received.
The unfortunate end to such a positive experience happened today when I opened my clearly marked box of wine glasses only to find that they had all been crushed. Mind you I have shipped these same exact glasses from Los Angeles to Orlando via FedEx with no issues so I realized the only way this happened was because heavy boxes had been placed on top of the wine glasses box. When I emailed the company about making remedies for only 2 of the glasses (my favorites!) which cost only $ 13 each I received an email less than 6 minutes later stating that their insurance didn’t cover my glasses. Hmm. I am not sure what the insurance actually covers then. I guess from a customer service perspective I expected a different response. I am a student so while this is a minor cost it is a cost none the less.
All in all, I would highly suggest Mikes Moving for their kind and courteous movers. I dropped what would have normally been a 5 star rating because of the disappointment in which my glasses were treated and then how quickly my concern was dismissed.
