Mover Dudes

Mover Dudes was on time to load our furniture on their truck. They wrapped, boxed and taped each item to ensure no damage. They loaded the truck in about 3 1/2 hours. They were extremely courteous and polite. They explained all the details and advised us when to expect delivery, but the stated we would get a phone call when exact time would be available. Mover Dudes arrived right on time to deliver our furniture.

They placed the furniture exactly as we explained where we wanted it. Still very polite, professional and courteous. All of our furniture was delivered with no damage and they removed all the cardboard, tape and blankets that they had used. We have no complaints at all from using Mover Dudes, we would recommend them to our friends and neighbors if they decided to move.

The crews were professional and efficient. Crew leader was great. His attention to detail was amazing considering the amount of inventory and varied locations on the property where items were held. Thank you for a great move experience! Look forward to seeing how the next part of move goes.

The guys did a great job. I was assigned a big crew of respectful, strong careful guys. They my specialty items with care. I packed my own belongings, and they were understanding about boxes with some open tops. I was dreading the move, but these guys made it easy for me and my staff. I'd highly recommend.

Our move out and back in went very smoothly. Their crew of 3 guys showed up as scheduled, and knocked out the move very quickly. They stored our items and brought them back 1 week later with absolutely no issues. I would highly recommend them for your next move.

The packers were efficient done in 90 minutes. The movers were also efficient and no nonsense. They were helpful in other ways such asoving items not on their list. They were all respectful of my items and had a great attitude. Mitch was good as the lead and the other 3 were great.

The team was very professional from quote to move. They actual came in slightly under their quoted price so it was a nice surprise. The moving crew worked quickly and efficiently. The crew swept out my storage until when they finished. Will definitely utilize Mover Dudes for other moves.

If you want reliable movers, you can't go wrong with Mover Dudes! Truly, they have it all -- courtesy, attention to detail, and a true lens on customer satisfaction! From start to finish, they did everything right and everything well. While I was packing, they talked me through several scenarios and questions about how to pack this or that. They showed up right when they said they would.

I never heard so many "yes ma'ams" and "thank you's" from a moving team. I had some fragile items in bubble wrap, and they took the time to build custom boxes around them, so bottom line: Nothing broke. If you've moved a lot, as I have, you know what it's like to get pennies on the pound for broken items -- it's so much better to not have breakage in the first place.

As a homeowner, moving is one of the most stressful things, but Mover Dudes truly took the worry out of it. Skillful, professional and customer-focused, I highly recommend Mover Dudes for a safe and stress-free move!

We had a hot tub that needed to be moved. Those two words, "hot tub, " sent a lot of moving companies running. "Nope, we don't do that." "Sorry, no." "Not interested." I spoke with probably a dozen companies. Only three said they'd be willing to help with the move and gave me a quote. Mike R. from MoverDudes was one of the first, and I was immediately impressed with not only how friendly he was but also thorough and professional.

He asked all the right questions and gave me an honest assessment of what would be involved and how many guys it would require. Mike also worked with me on options to plan the move and gave me a couple of different quotes based on those scenarios. He was very communicative and helpful. When I had a last minute scheduling change, Mike and the team worked to accommodate me.

On moving day, the team arrived on time and were not only polite but also incredibly professional, organized, and took great care. This is a top-notch outfit. Highly recommended.

Mover Dudes did a WONDERFUL job of moving a baby grand piano from Stephens City to Winchester. Greg, the contact dude, was responsive, friendly and very professional. The guys who did the move were awesome! They new what the were doing and did it well! I am appreciative of all the dudes!

These guys made my move easy! The team that helped me move was great and the coordinator was awesome with helping me get my move set up! The owner, Jon Eye is an awesome guy!

Great company to work with! Our crew was fantastic. Very professional and skilled at packing and moving large, heavy and fragile items. They treated our goods as though they owned them and got everything safely from VA to WV. Highly recommend Mover Dudes!

The Mover Dudes team was exceptional! Each introduced themselves at the beginning of the job. Not only did they take great care of my household goods, they were very attentive and understanding of my skittish pets. The team consisted of four who were doing the wrapping, disassembling and loading of the truck and one lead who was tracking everything.

All of the Mover Dudes were outstanding, had great personalities and great communication skills. The job was completed quickly and efficiently. The lead ensured that everything was properly marked and accounted for. I was given an itemized receipt and the lead explained the final cost, as it differed from the estimate (it was actually less expensive). I highly recommend the Mover Dudes!

I have used The Mover Dudes four times over the past 12 years. Every experience with them has been very positive. I have always found the crew members to be extremely courteous and they exhibit genuine concern for my personal property. They take great care preparing the items to be moved as well as being conscientious not to damage walls or door jambs of the houses they are moving in and out of. An added bonus is that the crewmembers exhibit professionalism with each other and make what can be a potentially very stressful day much more easy-going.

I have great respect for this company and will continue to recommend them to friends and I will use them anytime I need to move something as small as a dining room set or the contents of an entire house.

The move went very smoothly. Crew showed up as scheduled, worked efficiently, wrapped items that needed wrapping and placed all items in their place on the other end. The whole process took far less time than I had anticipated and I would HIGHLY recommend these folks if you are contemplating any kind of move. Great job!

Had a team of four for a big local move. Jason was the team lead and I could not have been more impressed. As a young woman that was meeting the movers alone, I was weary, but All the guys were kind, courteous, and respectful the entire move. Jason was a fantastic leader, and really knows what he is doing. All the guys took the time to make sure exactly what I wanted and not a single item went unchecked by me and the whole crew. A special mention also to mover Nico who worked quickly and diligently! Hopefully won't be moving again for a while, but when I do, I'll be requesting Jason! Thanks guys!

Had some frustrating issues with the front office (lost items, missed appointment times, later scheduling, no notice, etc.) but it's clearly a disconnect between them and the actual movers, who were delightful. On the phone with the front office, the person we talked to didn't even apologize for the delivery being late. Meanwhile, the actual movers were speedy, gregarious, and careful with everything.

They were extremely apologetic about being late, cracked friendly jokes while unloading, and promptly finished up and headed to their next job. Well done to Noah and his team.

We've moved several times, and this was by far the best experience/company. They prepared ahead of time to ensure their truck could get up our steep driveway, the guys were courteous (and wore masks without making us feel bad, thank you!), plus they were careful and quick with their move. We've worked with other companies that only sent 2-3 guys, and this company sent 5, which meant the move was faster and they helped each other so there was less damage. We will absolutely work with them again if we move in the future.

I called to receive a quote(twice) for a move and no one ever called me back. Such a shame, because I was set on using this business for my upcoming move. I hope communication improves in the future.

I was a repeat customer with Mover Dudes and had an acceptable experience in 2015. I am so disappointed in how I've been treated this time and think I've been taken advantage of as a woman. This year, I requested a move with a last-call delivery date of Sept 28th because I will be out of the country. Mo, a sales associate, told me he called the owner of the company, the truck driver, and all the schedulers and he was sure they could go ahead and get my items delivered by the 28th and they could make it happen.

That was two weeks ago. After they received my $2000 deposit, communication with Mover Dudes immediately worsened. I had to call and text multiple times to get a response. It was always unclear who was contacting me back - they didn't identify themselves by name in text. The initial truck arrival window changed from Sept 16, to the 22, and now -- unclear if or when the truck is coming and who will be available to meet them and unload, as I'll be out of the country.

I am wanting to hear directly from this "owner of the company" that Mo A. so freely name dropped during his hard sell. Dishonest and pushy salepeople without the coordination to deliver on bogus promises. Yesterday, Greg Brown had no idea how many hours my proposed move route would be -- and said "I thought someone else had called you back, sorry". Please.

If I could give Mover Dudes a worst score, I would. They destroyed our beautiful cherry master suite furniture. They wrapped furniture in the truck leaving it open to scaring as they carried out of one house and into another. Which is exactly what happened! They also dropped a refrigerator off the truck. After filling out claim reports and 2 months of telephone calls, it was determined that the cost to repair damaged furniture was just short of our deductible by a couple of dollars - very suspicious! Would strongly recommend not using Mover Duds.

Stay Away! I contacted them via Yelp. I had a general response pretty quickly saying they would be glad to help and they would call me. It took 24 hours for them to call me and respond to the date I requested. Simply put they said even though it was over a week away they could not fit me in. I called back and left a message as to when they could fit me in and my call was NOT returned. I went with another moving company that was amazing, fast, and communicated!

Please do not make any arrangement with this company. I was requested to use my credit card, charging me a fee of $75, to hold a moving date. He didn't tell me that the $75 was nonrefundable. He emailed a contract that was an underestimation of the cost to move and I immediately knew that I was dealing with a dishonest company. His last words were, " you should be careful who you give your credit card to". Please don't use this moving company.

I am in the middle of a divorce, and needed someone to come out to my husbands house to remove my furniture for me. I was in a wreck in December and still cannot lift allot of weight. I received a prompt response to my Yelp Inquiry, and was able to work out an estimate. The day of my move my husband had gone out of his way to make every aspect of the move difficult.

He had been living in the house for 5 months tearing it up with trash everywhere, letting the cats urinate on the floors. it was filthy. The cherry on his revenge sundae was keeping the a/c off the entire time. So it was a hot box of horrible. The movers who came out assured me everything would be taken care of, and they did it. They worked in the 80+ degree temps, with the amonia smell for several hours without complaint.

Our troubles unfortunately didn't end their. When we got to the storage shed, they found a baby cotton mouth inside. Just my luck! They still took it in stride, with help from my dad the snake was removed and my furniture got stored safely and efficiently in my container. Thank you so much for being their for me and helping me with my move. Recommended A++!

I needed help moving a heavy couch and several other 2 person lift pieces of furniture so I sent a quote on yelp and mover dudes had one of the better rates and responded quickly. Their scheduler called me promptly and was very helpful in setting up the details and getting the payment knocked out over the phone. On the day of the move, the 2 movers showed up on time and were professional.

I showed them the apartment and the furniture I needed them to move and they started working right after that. They ended up damaging my couch from dragging it on the ground, which pulled the armrest up from its metal tacks into the wood frame and also knocked it against the wall leaving a large dent that broke drywall. I understand moving large furniture is difficult, but this is also the reason why I decided to hire professionals, so I was frustrated when I found the damage.

I made the mistake of not inspecting the furniture before letting them leave, which is something I'll ensure to do next time. Overall, the service was good, but the actual work did not meet my expectations. I will probably shop around more next time to find a better company.

They called once to gather information within 30 minutes, said they would call back with a price and never did. It's a shame because chances are they had the business. We have since gone with someone else. Kory, sorry you should check with the person who left the message, I only have one phone, it states my name, there was not a message left. Can I ask why it was not followed up by an email? Again response time and questions were right on cue.

Sigh well here we go: 1. They were 3 hours late 2. I called and apparently our move was not on the books. Although they called to confirm the day before. 3. They arrived in a Uhaul Truck (not a Mover Dudes Truck) that was too small 4. They did not do a check to make sure every room was moved. So they left without moving our basement and we had to move it ourselves.

Along with other small pieces of furniture throughout the house. 5. The dresser chest: Was too hard to move down the stairs of the old house (previous movers had no problem) and too hard to move up the stairs in the new house (so they left my dresser chest in the living room). We had to pay some off duty movers from the previous moving company to move the dresser upstairs took them less than 8 minutes.

Used earlier this year for a move across town, they had the lowest quote (they beat the next lowest quote by almost $200!) & I was admittedly a little skeptical at first, but they FAR exceeded my expectations. The movers that came out were very very VERY professional, courteous & thorough. All of my items & furniture were wrapped, protected & secured exceptionally well, they were careful & conscientious about making sure that everything was done properly.

It took longer than I expected, but knowing that the reason for that was to ensure that nothing was damaged during the move, it didn't bother me at all. There were no hidden fees or charges, they stuck to their quote even though I substituted one item (that I'd listed in the initial quote but ended up moving myself) for another that I wanted them to move for me.

It was a very very smooth process, maybe the smoothest move/movers I've ever dealt with. Now that a friend is moving, I'm going to recommend them & I'll DEFINITELY give them a call the next time that I need moving services. Cannot recommend them highly enough, I just wish I could remember the name of the guys who did my move so I know exactly who to ask for next time. Great job guys, thanks!

If you want your items stolen off of an unattended truck and to be overcharged hundreds of dollars, this is the company for you! The move itself took over 7 hours for moving 5 blocks away with only 1 bedroom of furniture and 10 boxes. Still not sure how it took this long. During the move out, the movers left the truck unattended and one of my neighbors saw a person jump on to the truck and run away with my clothing.

I had to fill out several forms to get my money back for this item, the first form was incorrect and I was sent yet another form to fill out. Next, the company does inventory-based quoting. Fine. I moved 30 of my 40 boxes prior to the move, so down to 10 boxes and moved several other items on the quote I moved myself as well. Everyone from sales to the movers themselves assured me the price would be adjusted down for the actual inventory.

It was not. I am now dealing with accounting and trying to reconcile the incorrect inventory. It has been three weeks of dealing with this and emailing the COO repeatedly when I hear nothing back from them for weeks. I was told most recently that I was being sent checks for what seems to be random amounts that do not total the over $200 I am owed. Further I requested a discount for my trouble with the company and found today that they are offering a pitiful 5% for my inconvenience. The training of staff, communication from them and between them, and quality of service were awful.

This review is long (read below for details) but in short: I would NOT recommend Mover Dudes due to poor communication between front office and movers (echoing other reviews), poor quality of moving (many scratches on furniture and poor preparation on part of movers) and overall not a price discount once everything was said and done. For the long story: contacted mover dudes to move my 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom condo from Richmond to D.C. Called three weeks in advance for a moving date on 7/1 and received no return communication or estimate. Had to call multiple times and then the one time I did get an estimate for 7/1, I asked for ONE hour to consult with my husband and the date was gone by the time I called back.

They didn't even do me the courtesy of holding the date for a short time. VERY unprofessional. They basically forced our hand into moving two weeks early and my husband and I are still moving our belongings ourselves two weeks later. By this time, we had lost dates with other companies as well. I then called them back to update our inventory, and it was very obvious when the movers arrived that they were caught off guard by our furniture.

The lead mover, Stephen, scolded me for not telling him that my furniture was IKEA and would need a different set of disassembly (how would I have known that? Perhaps the front office should know to ask that screening question). I also told the front office we had a large sectional and the movers did not arrive with shrink wrap and there are now multiple scratches on the our leather sofa.

There were also multiple scratches on the furniture and our new house floor, which Stephen explained was due to "our poor quality of furniture, " obviously not his moving skills. Thank you for insulting our hard earned purchases. He was then extremely frustrated throughout the move and let it widely known; granted, there was obviously more stuff than the movers expected (should not have been projected onto me), and we had difficulties with access to the townhouse due to cars being improperly parked (shocking, city govt was slow in responding). Our move took 9 hours and once the additional inventory was added, the cost was increased significantly. Do yourself a favor and hire another company.

Mover dudes were amazing! They gave a specific time frame for when they were going to arrive and arrived well within that time frame, so I didn't have to wait around too long. I had rented two storage units and they were able to fit all of my things into one storage unit so I even got a to save money and get a refund from the storage unit I didn't need.

The whole entire process was finished in less than three hours. Not only were they professional and efficient in their work, but they were also really friendly, nice, and funny. They made the seemingly dreadful experience of moving so much more pleasant than I imagined it would be. Oddly enough, it left me with that warm and fuzzy feeling. Highly recommend them for anybody who's moving!

First time using professional movers and we will never go the old route again of bribing friends with pizza and beer. Watching Ben and his colleague (Nick?) work was like watching performance art. They were literally sprinting to and from the truck at times. Incredibly nice guys with superhuman strength that made the usually horrible experience of moving a breeze. It's 2pm and we're already sitting in our new home, minds blown from watching how smooth everything went. There is no question on who we'll be calling for the next move.

I had researched a few local movers before I made the decision to go with Venture Bros. Setting up my appointment (through Yelp) was fast and easy, and Ben got back to me within 12 hours and had me on the schedule that weekend. Most moving companies I called needed like a 2 week heads up but I was so grateful to get someone that fit my schedule, not the other way around.

All three guys showed up and got my furniture loaded up in 30 minutes, and unloaded in about the same amount of time. I never felt like I was being rushed, or that this was a stressful experience like my other previous moves with other companies. Walker and Joshua were hilarious and charming, and I highly recommend them for your next move!

If you're looking for movers, you found them! I can't recommend Venture Bros enough. I've used several moving companies in Richmond in the last 5 years and Venture Bros was superior in every way. They are fast, careful, friendly, and affordable. They moved my 1 bed room apartment to my new home in under 2 hours. They were really friendly throughout the entire move.

They arrived and within just a few minutes, they were putting blankets on furniture and loading the truck. They have an affordable flat rate with no hidden fees at all. They have a two hour minimum and my bill was exactly what it should have been. If you're moving, give Venture Bros a call.

Karl, Nick, and Aaron. These were the guys who helped me move from Williamsburg to my new apartment in Richmond. Like one of the other reviewers mentioned, these guys were machines. They finished packing an hour earlier than I anticipated and I was sitting comfy with all my boxes moved into my new apartment a couple hours earlier than expected. I'm not sure what else I can say about a move, but the one thing that set them apart was personality.

The entire experience was enjoyable -- they were super kind and kept throwing jokes left and right. They even called one of my canvases dope. Made my day. On top of all this, they gave me helpful tips on cool places in the neighborhood and gave me a history lesson of the city. I've never felt more welcome. Five stars and will always be using Venure Brothers for my future moves in and out of $$$mond. You should, too. More efficient than Skynet.

I am amending my previous review. It appears that Venture Brothers is out of business, and has been purchased by Mover Dudes (or something?). I've tried several times to just talk to them about moving us (get a quote/set a date) and I can't get through to them. They haven't responded to an online request for a quote, I called once and got disconnected, and called a second time and left a message.

No response or call back from them to date. This is NOT how Venture Brothers did business. So my guess is this is an entirely different organization and my previous review (copied below) is no longer valid? Previous review. These guys were amazing! Josh, Karl and David were the crew that moved us and they were fantastic. They are hard working, strong, and highly professional.

They really know how to move and have all the equipment needed to make it happen. Even better, they have an outstanding positive attitude and work ethic. They are incredibly hard workers and their positive attitude kept our spirits up even as we were closing in on a long day and a major thunderstorm. These guys just get the job done. They speak highly of the company owner too, which is always nice to hear. We can't say enough positive things about them. I'd give them more than five stars if that were possible.

A big shoutout to Venture Bros for their amazing job today. Carl and Walker were timely, and personalable and took great care of all of my stuff. Thanks so much for making my move an easy one! Hands down, I would recommend Venture Bros to anyone.

These guys are machines. I never realized how much stuff I really had nor did I think it would be a problem fitting it all in a 16-foot truck. We had hired 2 guys and thought it wouldn't take more than a couple hours. The only problem was that our movers were initially late due to a previous job going over-time. However, the owner and another helper came to the rescue to get things started so we'd remain on-schedule.

Then the original guy showed up and even though we now had 4 guys moving us, they still only charged us for the original 2. That's just the most amazing customer service. But as I said, we never realized how much stuff we really had and fitting it all was a challenge. But these guys played the most intense game of Tetris ever and fit just about everything on the truck.

They were careful and agile and handled all of our belongings with care. It's a shame we no longer live in RVA and can't use them again, but I can't recommend them enough.
