Atlas Van Lines

Chris came and gave us an estimate was very professional. Wilma, Delmi and Robert were amazing, they moved our family from Long Island to Connecticut and everything went great. They were very careful with our furniture from wrapping it to, unpacking it. and they made a second stop to storage unit. I would definitely recommend fir your relocation.

So happy we went with the Avatar team for our move to a new house. From the initial meeting with Chris for an estimate to the team being on time and ready to roll on move day, it was nothing but a pleasant experience. I didn't have to think of anything as they were well prepared and professional. They took well care of my very fragile, thin-glassed china cabinet and disassembled and reassembled our platform bed with no problem. The team was very courteous and always moving. I would recommend them to anyone looking for quality services!

These guys are great! We recently moved from Long Island to Pennsylvania and decided to hire Avatar after meeting with and receiving an estimate from Chris, one of the owners. On moving day, Rob and his crew showed up promptly at 8am and by noon had loaded our entire 3 bedroom home onto the truck. They met us the next morning in PA and just 5 hours later had unloaded some of our things into our new apartment and the rest into 2 storage lockers that are located about a mile away.

These guys work their tales off. They are professional, respectful, honest, friendly and well humored. When it came time to settle the bill I was told that our "load" came in 600 lbs. underweight which saved us a few hundred bucks off the estimate. They didn't have to do that, but it speaks to the honesty and integrity of this company. I could not imagine a better moving experience.

Avatar Relocation out of New York (Long Island) was an extremely favorable experience. They say moving is one of the most stressful times in a person's life, but I have to say that "Danny" and his crew made it so simple and reassuring. They did an awesome job packing our house and loading everything into the truck for our move to California. The delivery took place about a week later and couldn't have gone smoother. Danny's leadership and attention to detail was outstanding!

All our items were delivered in excellent condition without a single scratch and nothing was broken. My wife and I were so impressed with the professionalism that I asked Danny if I could keep his number for future moves. Since our move to CA, Danny has been our "go to guy" for my brothers' moves and Danny recently moved my parents from GA to MN!

Incredible service, great communications, punctual, and you are treated like family. Danny's demeanor and charisma make you want to become his friend! We certainly hope Danny will be available when the time comes to venture back to the East Coast! Five stars, two thumbs up, and a huge smile for Avatar!

So after 45 Years in the same home we decided to move. The easiest and BEST part of the move was selecting Avatar Relocation of NY. Chris came to our home to speak to us ( he offered a virtual ) and do a walk thru and was very accurate and deliberate in informing us what he would do. We received a detailed estimate that was easy to read and understand.

Our move was delayed 3 times and there was no issue with rescheduling. We were also received a call from the lead man who would be in charge of the move, and would supervise the actual move. That was comforting to know that someone that aware of my situation was on site. (I had a heart attack just 10 days earlier) The move went so smooth, the arrives on time, pack up and dissembled all the beds and packed our belongings as if it was theirs.

We left the house that we lived in for 45 years. We arrived at our new home in Bay Shore (closer now to our kids and grandkids) and they were very helpful it reassembling everything and allowing us to put new pads on every piece of furniture if we requested it. They were carful and attentive not to do any damage to our new home and our furniture and placed every box as I directed.

When it was all over and was handed the final bill the actually lowered the price based on the number of items and boxes actually moved. So Like I said in the beginning choosing Avatar Relocation of NY was the BEST decision we made.

I highly recommend Chris N. and his exceptional company for your next move. During the process of preparing to move from Long Island to Florida I interviewed 6 moving companies. I read every review, called some companies multiple times to question their policies and how their process would work. I called Avatar movers last as I became frustrated at how sleazy all the other movers made me feel.

Well that feeling ended when I met with Chris Noblit at my home to get an estimated quote. He was very professional, honest and upfront about the whole process. His policies on downpayment and final payment were the best I could find. I also was able to put the whole cost on my credit card which was fantastic and safe. Chris gave an estimated weight based on what he saw at our home and I couldn't believe that he was accurate within a few pounds. Amazing!

On moving day the most polite, hardworking crew arrived and my wife and I immediately knew we had made the right choice. They took care of every detail and were gentle and caring with our stuff. Danny the driver was excellent and gave us his cell number. He told us we could call him at any time and get informed about when we could expect him to arrive.

I also need to point out that Avatar is not the cheapest, nor the most expensive. Their price was right in the middle. They have the fairest policy on weight charges and it's all very upfront, fair and honest. I was surprised at all of the hidden fees and tricks other movers employ and felt safe using Avatar. I am a very good shopper and try hard to vet every company and vendor I use. I can confidently recommend Avatar moving for your move without hesitation.

We had a wonderful experience with my move from Long Island to South Florida. We received quotes from a few companies and all said that Avatar could not deliver in such a short time frame. I confirmed with Chris if they could do it and he said yes. Sure enough we got our home delivered right when he said. It was imperative as we had two babies to take care of; that we get our items ASAP, and they delivered. Additionally the weight of the order was significantly less than estimated which was reflected that with a notable discount over what was estimated.

In both instances of trust which is so paramount in movers they delivered with flying colors. We had them do a full pack up of our home and everything came in pristine condition. Their packing crew was wonderful and got everything done so fast. I would highly recommend Avatar to anybody looking for a moving company. We are so happy we selected them.

We did a move from Long Island to New Jersey. I can say enough good things about Avatar. Chris came to our house was very friendly and thorough, gave us tips and advice. Wasn't pushy and pricing was very good. The guys who moved us were excellent- showed up on time - were very careful with our furniture and boxes. Polite, clean, professional and prompt. I can't say enough good things about our experience with Avatar. I would definitely recommend them.

So far so good! 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!

I hired Chris and his crew to move a less than full truckload from Long Island to the Berkshires in July of 2016. As I had plenty of time they picked up the items several weeks prior to their being delivered which was fine with me. The pick up crew was a great group of guys taking every care with my possessions which included furniture as well as boxes of belongings.

When the delivery date was determined I was given ample warning so I could be at the site that day. The delivery crew was amazing. They were just as pleasant as the pick up crew and were very helpful. My experiences with Avatar Relocation of NY were exemplary and I wholeheartedly recommend them for any moving project, large or small. From beginning to end everyone was amazing and helpful. Offers to save money by doing certain things myself were made when practical.

And I think more importantly we were treated well even though we were moving "against the grain" in a northern direction instead of southern. Thank you Chris and crews for a most wonderful experience!

My husband and I moved to Florida from Long Island in Aug. We had never used a moving company before so I interviewed 3 companies. We picked Avatar because Chris was the most honest man among them. He told us things that the others did not regarding our rights as customers. He was always there to answer any questions or go over things. The day of the move the movers actually came early and the crew were nice, respectful and did a great job.

We did most of the packing ourselves but besides the furniture we did have them pack mirrors, glass tops, TVs, and an antique tea cart. The day the truck arrived at our new house everything went fine. All the things that they packed and our furniture arrived in great condition. I would definitely tell anyone who is moving to use Avatar Relocation and if we ever move again I will be calling Chris!

Even though we were only moving 1.5 miles away, the whole process can still be stressful. Not so with the guys from Avatar. 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.

Avatar movers were pretty good. We were able to finish a local move within 4 hours, which was excellent. Avatar provided three movers and a truck big enough to accommodate my move. We did move on a rainy day and Avatar brought some old boxes to protect my carpet. They did their best not to dirty the carpet. The movers were very helpful and worked hard to get the move done ASAP. Everything ended up were I wanted it in my place and nothing was broken. All in all a great job.

[Update] Since my last review, the owner of this company called to apologize for the mishandling of the paperwork and provide a full reimbursement on the cost of extra paperwork preparation and delivery fee on my end. He was very listening and valued customer's feedback. He reassured that proper training on staff in handling cross-country move will be reinforced. Again, I would still recommend this company to anyone who's considering moving locally or within-US.

They do give accurate estimates and ensure your properties are arrived on time and in good condition. Hopefully, with this experience, they can improve their competence in any cross boarder moves. [Original]This review was written in regards to my move in February 2015 to ON, Canada. Due to the mistake in handling the paperwork and designating a wrong recipient in transporting my furniture to my family in Canada.

I had to obtain a power of attorney to correct the mistake, which caused extra cost (notarization fee and expedited courier fee of the original documentation to be sent to Canada) and a 2-week delay in releasing the goods at the border. When I decided to hire Avatar to handle my cross-border move. I trusted their expertise in handling the customs issues.

But that's not the case. They were not knowledgeable and misled me to think that no extra paperwork and duty were required (which was not the case, I had to prepare invoice of my furniture and pay a significant amount of duty fee). I really wish that Avatar Relocation can be more careful in paperwork preparation and be able to answer customer's questions more thoroughly for cross-border move to avoid unnecessary delays and misunderstanding. Nevertheless, I should still say that the loading day went very smoothly.

The moving crew came to my house on time, packed everything carefully, and loaded everything in a careful and organized manner. They demonstrated high level of professionalism. Also, no loss nor damages on the items was found. In terms of this, I would give a very high rating on this moving company. In all, I would recommend this company to do any local or within-US moves only.

I would not recommend them to do any cross-border moves. You would either have to do lots of your own research on importing/exporting across the border or hire someone else that has that expertise.

Our experience with Avatar Relocation was an excellent experience from the estimate of cost to the final delivery. Chris was very professional, and explained in detail what we could expect. Dan, our truck driver, was great. He made sure that all furniture, boxes, and misc items were protected at the time of loading. We were able to contact him from the departure to delivery to verify an exact time of delivery. The loading teams at pickup and delivery were extremely careful to prevent damage to our possessions. We would recommend Avatar for your moving experience.

Great moving company. The service was excellent! 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.
