Microchip

Microship just helped me with a recent move from a one bedroom apartment to a house. They arrived early which was great and took great care when wrapping up my furniture. Everyone was professional and great to work with. Definitely recommend! Great price for the services provided!

I recently moved from Illinois to Oklahoma and Microship made it a very easy and stress free process. The communication with the movers was very efficient and the communication with Doug, new management, was better than ever. Throughout the whole process they eased my mind and got everything done professionally. Not only was the service fantastic, but the price for the move was as well.

The movers and company made sure to keep in contact from the moment they left to when they arrived. We had a lot of valuable items being moved and the movers took their time to make sure to wrap them efficiently so they would be safe in the truck while over the road. Everything was on time and because of this nothing was delayed along the way. A great company that works with you to make sure that they get your move and anything you need done without worry. My family and i were very with our time using Microship and will definitely be referring them moving forward.

After dealing with many other moving companies and getting no where i knew that Microship was going to be my best option and i was right. My friend referred me after her great experience and how much she boasted about them. The communication with the office and movers was fantastic, like she said it would be! Everyone within the company answered all the questions i had and made me more relaxed, i had a lot of questions and everyone who i spoke with was very knowledgeable to what i had asked and needed done.

They even gave me better ideas towards how to handle my move. I had a small move and everything was treated with care and the movers were extremely professional and efficient. I will definitely pass their business on to others just like it was done for me. My move was stress free and i could not be happier with the service.

MicroShip Inc. was amazing and they provided outstanding customer service from the Owner, Mary, Reggie and all others that hauled all the boxes to the truck, Kept it in storage and delivered it to Scottsdale Az six months latter. We had a unique situation leaving Illinois and Settling in AZ 6 months latter. The boxes and furniture that arrived were flawlessly clean and there were no bugs, no odors, etc. nothing was missing or even broken. They gave our personal stuff tender loving care and I would highly recommend them to anyone that is moving.

Great company to work with, good staff and friendly service. The moving crew got my things safely from place to place without damage as well. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking to move locally or cross country.

Just used them for the third time over the past 10 years. Moved things from CA to FL. moved things from FL back to CA. then moved things from FL to Indiana and IL. Each and every time they exceed expectations. This is a company that is reasonable, reliable, trustworthy, and NICE to deal with. Isn't it wonderful in this time of stressful Covid that some businesses still shine? So happy with their service.

We recently moved and I couldn't have been more satisfied with Microship. They were prompt, extremely diligent in wrapping my furniture, and the out of my home/into our new place was flawless. They worked long hours, but were patient and professional. I would definitely use them again and certainly recommend them!

I recently moved from Westmont to Atlanta and needed to move my stuff. The movers where very nice and the priced they quoted was very good and when it arrived the stuff was fine. All in all my wife and I where very happy and would recommend them.

DO NOT USE MICROSHIP. I had the worst experience moving from Chicago to Boston. I contracted through Atlas Van Lines, with Microship coordinating and executing the move. After being quoted $2,400 for the move (including packing/materials and labor), I was charged $5,000+ due to "excess weight." Upon inspection of the estimate (which took 2 months to receive), it appeared that the weight estimate was based on the assumption that my furniture had negligible density, which was not only dishonest but fraudulent. Further, pick-up was delayed two days due to their own internal scheduling conflicts, and drop-off was delayed 10 days past the originally scheduled delivery date. Additionally, items were damaged, boxes were reused from previous moves (which I was still forced to pay for), and customer service was horrific. Microship was not only unprofessional, but also dishonest and fraudulent. Do not use them under any circumstance. I would give them 0 stars if I could.

We had a small load of 14 boxes and a few pieces of furniture going to Fort Meyers FL. The price and service was fantastic. We were not in a hurry so they loaded and held for about 10 days until they had a full truck. Called to let us know when it was leaving and arriving. Worked out great for us. Thanks Everyone at Microship

Microship did a great job for us twice, first moving from a house to storage units, and then from the storage units to a new house. They sent 2 trucks and 6 men, got everything in safely and did all the unpacking we wanted. The men were hard-working, responsive, pleasant, flexible and careful. We have used Microship for small jobs in the past and this was the first big job. They passed with flying colors.

While the actual pick-up/delivery men were skilled and appropriately careful as well as respectful, we were disappointed with the pricing. We had furniture moved from Lake Forest to upstate NY. We were led to believe that an add-on piece of furniture would be far less than it turned out to be. We found out about the charge when the bill came. We called, since we were sure it was a mistake.

It was not. We felt we were significantly overcharged and therefore were taken advantage of. We will not recommend this company in the future and will tell the real estate agent who recommended them to us, not to do so again. This was a disappointing financial experience.

I can honestly say I will never be using this subpar at best moving service anymore. All they care about is lying about the weight and collecting your money. Rob Kaye tries to be this low key smooth talker but he knows how to play people. Plus 4 or 5 of my items delivered were dented and broken. And when I called to ask about getting a refund they said they'd call me back and never did. They're unprofessional, they use kids to work at their warehouse tossing your stuff around like it's nothing and pay them 10 bucks an hour.

If you're Lovie Smith or some high profile person hauling a 100k baby grand piano and you pay them a 20k premium fee you may get the red carpet treatment. Otherwise average schmucks like me and you get whatever they give us. My recommendation is for you all to pass this shit company up and go with one of the bigger outfits. Microship, Rob Kaye.you suck!

Tony and John (the movers) were wonderful! They were very professional and efficient. They were super friendly. They helped my husband and I, and they were patient as we navigated the move with our infant daughter and dog. I'd give the two of them five stars - though our experience with company leadership wasn't quite as stellar.

Spend the extra money and have Mayflower, United or one of the bigger companies move your stuff cross country. I completely regret not paying the extra money and accepting Woody from Mayflower's quote. This is the worst moving company I have ever used. This company lost multiple screws and pieces need to put back our furniture even though they took it apart.

They only sent one guy to move and assemble the stuff at destination. So he couldn't get to all our stuff before he had to be back on the road again. If you have anything from Ikea or that is made of particle board it will not be cover by the insurance they provide that includes there high level insurance that you pay extra for. They will also wait to tell you this until the inventory process when they have everything loaded on the truck.

You will have to constantly call and email if you want to be sure of where your stuff is. They will lie to you so unless your stuff is being off loaded. Do not trust their dates at all.

I used Microship back in May (2017) when I moved to my new house. Working with the professionals at Microship was the easiest and least painful part of my move. Their moving professionals were on time and moved all of my furniture and fragile items quickly and safely. From the time they arrived at my old home to the time they were unloaded in the new house it was a total of 4hrs.

Nothing broke and everything was moved with care. On top of it their pricing cannot be beat. I will absolutely use Microship in the future and I have already recommended them to a few friends.

Microship did an outstanding job moving a small order from Chicago to Cleveland. Mary was quite helpful, Rob was very clear and communicative, and the mover, Dicky, was very professional. Everything came as I had packed it, and each box was delivered carefully into my new condo. I thought the price was quite reasonable, given my request for expedited shipping. If you have to move a small order, this is absolutely the company to use. I am very, very satisfied with Microship's outstanding service. Thank you!

Microship did an excellent job with my move. I called an talked to Mary who was very kind on the phone then Rob returned my call the same day with a quote. It was a local move but treated me like I was moving across the country. The window for delivery was met and my stuff was fine. Good crew of guys too.

I recently moved from Chicago to Madison, WI, and had an excellent experience with Microship. Their quote was by far the most reasonable of all the companies I considered, especially since I was only moving a few pieces of furniture. They took about an hour to pack everything up and even less to unpack it and carry it up my narrow staircase. Friendly, professional, and all around great to work with. I recommend them for anyone looking to move a small amount of furniture long distances.

Excellent service with friendly staff. I used them from California to Chicago and then Chicago to Baltimore. Great prices and perfect delivery. I would use them again if I needed to move a small amount of furniture or anything else. I highly recommend them as an alternative to large impersonal companies

I've used microship twice to move in and out of my apartment and it was the smoothest moving experience. No one enjoys the stresses of moving and these guys made it that much easier. I was moved in/out within 2-3 hours and that included the 45 minute drive to get from place to place. No damage, affordable price. I will be using them every time I move from here on out.

I needed to move a bookcase and highboy dresser from Elgin, IL to Hiawassee, GA. Microchip came out when the said they would, picked up both pieces and delivered them in perfect condition exactly when they said they would and all at a reasonable price. They kept me informed each step of the way. I have recommended them in the past and will certainly recommend them in the future. This is my third time using them.

They're really great, moved my items in with ease! They worked very efficiently and did so without damaging any of my goods. I really appreciated the quality of work the movers were providing me and my family with. I will for sure be using you guys in the future. Thanks. Also everybody in the office was easy to communicate with, great feedback so we always knew where we were at in or stressful process they made less stressful. To a great team, cheers!

When choosing a moving company to move us from Chicago to Texas, I was overwhelmed with the poor Yelp reviews I read from many different companies. Moving is overwhelming as it is, and moving across the country is extremely overwhelming. We were beyond satisfied with Microship. Robert was very easy to work with, and the crew he sent out was beyond professional. Antonio- who has been with Microship for 10 years (I think?) was one of the best movers I have ever had.

Not only is he strong (!) but he is professional, reliable, and as nice as they get. He picked our stuff up in Chicago and promised to meet us in Austin 4 days later at 1 pm on a Sunday. At 12:30 pm, he texted that he was on time and would see us soon. So above and beyond what we expected! He brought someone to help us with the unpacking (we paid extra for this- something we asked for) that was incredibly helpful.

If I owned this company, I would treat this employee like gold- he is that good. It seems a lot of their crew has been with them for a while- which says a lot. The only issue we had was a math error in calculating our weight. They overcharged us, but promptly answered us and said they will issue a refund for the difference- which I feel will happen.

If not, I will respond to this. Moving companies seem to get a bad rap online. I am told there are fake reviewers from competitors, etc. I assure you I am a customer and a very pleased one, at that. If you are looking for a company to move you across the country and take care of your things- you are in good hands. I would like to add- not one item was broken-- no chips, scratches, etc.

They are professionals and will take great care of your belongings. Thank you for a great move! Please don't review this business if you received a freebie for writing this review, or if you're connected in any way to the owner or employees.

Microship delivered our household items from Chicago to Denver 5 weeks late, many were broken or missing and when the drivers were finally in route they got pulled over in Iowa and the driver got arrested for a suspended license. Customer service was nonexistent and they were unapologetic for the distress and inconvenience they caused. Use a real moving company, you get what you pay for with these guys.

I was so stressed about moving. I was moving by myself cross country. They had the best attitude. When they walked in it was like a ray of sunshine, and all my stress was gone! Use these guys!

I hired this company based on a friend's recommendation. They picked up the furniture on 11-21-14. I paid them approximately $1,100. They said it might take a couple of months. I've called and been told soon. Finally yesterday I sent a letter to MicroShip. They called today and said they need $400 MORE before they would deliver. After beIng paid and after sitting on this for FOUR months they say they won't deliver until I pay more.

They said it's because they underestimated the shipping weight. They wanted a credit card payment over the phone. I asked that they provide a statement, then I'd pay. They balked. I'll pay it, but in the future I will AVOID THIS COMPANY! I simply do not trust them.

My 3 siblings and I hired Micro Ship to move our mother's furniture to our respective homes in Illinois, Colorado, Wisconsin and Maryland. We chose this company because they were by far the cheapest on all 4 quotes. I received my furniture today which consisted of a triple dresser, headboard, 2 night stands, 2 bookcases and a dozen other smaller items.

They wrapped all the furniture with blankets and plastic wrap and removed it all when it arrived. Everything arrived in the same condition as when it left Chicago. Rob was the person coordinating the move and he did a great job making sure everything got to where it was supposed to go (a houseful of furniture and misc. delivered to 4 different states) and was up front about the timing of the delivery. Antonio and Johnathan were at my house to deliver my stuff exactly at the time they said they would be there. They were also VERY professional and extremely personable. I couldn't have asked for a better experience!

****** Do Not Use****** Packed my belongings on May 16th 2013 and still do not have my furniture including my bed! I originally contacted Mayfower moving because of the reputation they have. I have heard and read many horior stories regarding moving cross country and did not want the same thing to happen to me. Mayflower sub contracts out so they put me in contact with Quality relocation whom uses Microship Inc from my understanding.

My originally date to pack was may 21st, I believe, which they ended up asking me the night before if they could pick my things up the next day, May16th, and I told them that would be fine. I originally signed a contract that stated 2-8 weeks for delivery and then when they arrived I signed another contract that stated 2-21 business days for delivery.

I never have received any calls regarding when my things have left Chicago and or when they plan to arrive in California. I called several times and spoke to Judy, whom has been very helpful. I was then told they would leave on the 14th of June and still nothing. I have had to call them several more times to get updates or try and get answers regarding my possessions.

I leave out of the country on August 1st and have family coming into town this weekend with no bed to sleep on. I am completely dissatisfied with these services and would like a refund. I paid with a visa credit card and the full payment was deducted from the company before belongings ever left chicago. As of right now I still do not have my furniture including my bed! Do not use, I have even contacted the BBB and filed a complaint with them as well.

I hired MicroShip to transport a formal dining room table and chairs from Chicago to New Jersey. They told me they make this particular trip all the time and that it would only take 2-3 weeks after pickup. While they picked up the furniture promptly, I didn't hear back from them about delivery. I called their office two weeks after pickup and was told they'd return my call. Nothing. Finally, one month later, I was told by the owner that the furniture would leave Chicago the following week.

I explained that the paperwork had been misleading since I expected the furniture earlier. He essentially told me that I had misread their crystal-clear contract. About 15 minutes later, he called me back to apologize (for calling me an idiot), explaining that they had misfiled my paperwork, which is why the furniture was not shipped out earlier. (No one told me that.) When the furniture finally arrived, 7 weeks after pickup, the hardware connecting the table leaves was missing, and one of the $500 chairs had a broken back support.

After submitting my claim, I received a letter saying they had forgotten to charge me for the insurance premium, but the cost of repair was less than the premium--so they would do me the favor of not charging the difference between the repair and the premium. In addition to the annoyance of the missing hardware and the broken chair, I noticed on the shipping label that the people who picked up the furniture marked every piece as damaged, scuffed and scratched - to prevent claims on the other end.

Since most of the furniture arrived in pristine condition, one can only assume that drivers are instructed to make these blanket claims re: condition to reduce the incidence of claims. I was very disappointed in the service and lack of professionalism by Micro Ship and would recommend finding another option - or covering all of your bases since this vendor is more interested in CYA than in customer service.
