Global Moving Systems Reviews

★★☆☆☆
I can't endorse this moving company. Maybe they're great in doing local moves, but our cross-country move was definitely bad. Pros: the packing crew was nice. They were on time as well as the delivery. Cons: You could tell what boxes were packed carefully and others were not. Some things were thrown into a box with some packing paper, while others had items that were wrapped 10 times over. Our brand new sofa was scratched and dented. Some pieces were just plain crushed. The record keeping was also bad. A few sheets were meticulous, while others were a mystery. The boxes were also unmarked. We even provided the crew with sharpie markers because they had none.
- Joann B.

★★★★☆
Positives: They communicated what time they would show up and they came on time. Nothing fully broken. They asked after each room if they had gotten everything. They were friendly. They have straight forward pricing of $145/hr plus 1 hr travel time with no hidden costs. Cheapest movers I found in the area. Nothing broke. They wrapped most furniture really well to protect it. Needs work: They came in masks but then took them off all day (I didn't mind at my house because I'm vaccinated but they never asked if it was okay to take off masks at my apartment complex where everyone wears masks at all times). When they delivered items they did not reassemble bed or desk even after asking me if I wanted them to. I labeled boxes and they ended up leaving a bunch of boxes in the wrong place. I asked them to put storage room boxes in the hallway and they packed them into the room. Overall they moved our stuff but it wasn't with the care I would expect for such a highly rated company on Yelp. You get what you pay for I guess. You need to make sure to micromanage these movers and look after their work before they leave and you should be fine.

GMS made my life a whole lot easier when the two gentlemen helped migrate everything from my old place to the new within 2.5 hours. They came very prepared with all their equipment to ensure nothing was damaged and made sure the big ticket items were deconstructed to avoid any damage to walls. Highly recommend these folks for the value. Pro Tip: schedule a move for the mornings to avoid any delays

I'm giving 5 stars for the actual men who did the moving. Rush, Andrew and Guliermo were professional, efficient, friendly and hard working. I would give 1 star to Yuri the guy who promised we could do the whole move from NC to DC in one day. He under estimated greatly how long it would take to move out our 2 bedroom condo's worth of furniture and thus we lost our reservation at the loading dock at our new place. This caused us a lot of issues. When we called to talk to him, he pointed blame everywhere, told me he would call me back once he talked to someone and he never called back.

All in all good people and an excellent value for your money. Helped out with a commercial move from VA to NYC that involved following many specific instructions. They were very attentive to the requests of my staff and did an amazing job wrapping all of the items and fragile electronics. In the end, the move was completed in a professional and timely manner with no hidden surprises, upcharges, or drama. As we've settled into the office, I still hear from my staff how amazing these guys are. Hopefully, we don't move for a while, but when we do - Global Moving Systems will be the go-to movers.

Global Moving systems Team of Enkhe and Dagoberto were the best of the best! They moved us just this morning and were timely, efficient, courteous and took great care with our furniture. If the rating had 10 stars , we would gladly give them that! We will surely ask for them whenever we move again.. we couldn't be happier! Thank you Enkhe and Dagoberto! You are a great team and Global Moving systems are lucky to have you! EILEEN and M B.

I used GMS a few weeks ago for a cross country move (VA -- CA). I'll break the review down by location. Pick up in VA: 5 stars. Flawless. Basically all I had to do was stand there, look pretty, and hand out water bottles. I packed everything myself and even took the bed apart / wrapped my mattress to expedite things. Manuel's team (3 guys total) was in and out in just over two hours. Drop off in CA: 3 stars. Poor communication. The 2 guys were about 3 hours late. I later realized it was because they were shuttling my things off the semi truck onto a smaller Uhaul. But it would have been nice to get an update rather than just be sitting by my door on standby. Manpower was an issue. 2 guys were not enough. My apt building had stairs. It was in the 80s that day. I ended up helping w the "unpacking" -- removing all the blankets etc from the wrapped furniture. By the end of it, I was drenched in sweat and exhausted. Not exactly what I was looking for when paying for a service. Bonus: My things were mostly undamaged and the stuff that was, wasn't so broken that it's worth mentioning. Also, everything arrived way ahead of schedule. My estimate was 8-15 days. I figured it would be closer to 15 but it ended up being 8! Pleasant surprise there. Things to keep in mind: although you can pay the deposit online w a CC, make sure to have a cashiers check or money order for the remainder because there is a 6% CC fee. I was kind of annoyed that this wasn't made clear and I had to run to the bank on the pick up day (I no longer had my car at the time and was lucky that there was a bank within walking distance). Overall: 5 stars considering the cost was about half of what the next cheapest company quoted me (no shuttle fee at origin, and no minimum weight requirement).

This team was great to work with. We used to try to skimp on moving costs, but found in the last couple moves that it's important to pay for quality service. Global worked with us in moving out our first house and putting things in storage. They guys were professional and prepared. They even were able to assess the ideal space for storage to order while we waited on next move. Today, a new group of the same company helped us move into our house. Rush Bina, Henry, and another team member were awesome. They were fast, very communicative, and precise. They treated our furniture with care.

As a first time customer, I have nothing but high praise for Global. The process for reserving my move was very efficient, I received emails confirming my date / time as well as reminders as the day approached. My movers (Nagi and Big Nagi) were very professional, they texted me their eta when they were headed out, they worked hard and diligently, and all my stuff arrived in the same condition it was in before the move. I've been moving about every 2 years, and I'm familiar with the cost for moving services, and Global is priced competitively. I recommend them without reservation!

★★★★★
We just moved from a 2 bedroom apartment to a 4 story townhome. The crew at Global Moving Systems were very careful with our belongings and got everything to its destination without incident. The effort lasted longer than the company anticipated so the final bill was a few hundred dollars higher than we were quoted, but I believe this is completely understandable given the challenge presented by the stairs and the heavy weight of some of our items. Side note: We tipped our crew heavily given the difficulty of moving our furniture up several flights of stairs. I learned that some of our neighbors, who moved into the same style townhome, did not tip at all. I feel awful for their movers. Please... tip these guys! They are putting tremendous wear and tear on their bodies for our benefit, the least we can do is make sure they are receiving fair monetary compensation.

★★★★★
Our movers were awesome! They were lightning fast, friendly, and very professional. They wrapped our furniture perfectly and were so careful maneuvering everything up the stairs and around tight corners, they never even got close to scraping any of the walls! These guys were pros. I shopped around quite a bit before choosing Global Moving Systems, and I could not be more pleased. I would highly recommend them to anyone needing to move in the DMV area!
- Christina M

★★★★★
We actually had two moves with Global and we needed storage for 7 days between each move which Global provided at no charge. I highly recommend GMS as the movers were very professional, efficient & respectful. They also explained the process before they packed & loaded the truck. Many thanks to Tyler, John & Nanji, Bat & Mike.

I just used Global Moving Systems and have to say that they are Fantastic! Many thanks go out to Naagi and Bat for amazing service. They were fast, efficient and courteous. We moved from VA to TN and they drove down a 500 mile trip and arrived at 1pm the next day, then turned around and went back 500 miles. Global Moving Systems has an easy online system and the price is wonderful. I highly recommend.

Very prompt professional company from start to finish-would highly recommend or use again myself! Attention to detail, very careful with all pieces and explained the whole process at the beginning. Good teamwork exhibited at all times! Great experience

★★★★★
Responded immediately with a quote, which was very reasonable. Very professional. Communicated clearly and kept me updated. Were transparent about potential add-ons that I requested during the move. Took extra caution with my belongings. Very thorough, timely, and caring. I would definitely hire them again!

★☆☆☆☆
12 hours for 3 guys to move a one SFH to another SFH 8 miles away . I provided list of items . They brought small truck and two trips to kill the item. They suppose to bring big truck . They did very slowly . They are rude and scratch on my new home . Did not fix lot of my cup boards , dining table . I will not recommend to any body this movers . Spend $1250 for this horrible move. I was thinking could not have done myself hiring outside guys. Called office and complained about double trip there was no response from them. I will not recommend this moving company
- Rao S

★★★★★
The employees worked very hard and never stopped till completed. I made sure they had plenty of water being it was so hot and had no complaints. When they delivered my stuff nothing was damaged or broken and they put all items where I told them. I highly recommend them to any one moving from one state to another.
- James R

★★★★★
I relocated to another county (approximately 40 miles) and had a wonderful experience with Naagi and team from GMS. They arrived within the specified window, provided notification 20 minutes before arriving, and immediately got to work. All bulky and fragile items were well wrapped and cared for in the move. Naagi and team were friendly and efficient! They completed the move an hour earlier than quoted and expected. I will definitely use them in the future!
- Angela W.

★★★★★
Yizhak and Dave were my movers today and they did an excellent job moving all my heavy furniture up two flights of stairs into my new townhome! Everything was well protected and they were quick and courteous. Very happy with them and will definitely recommend to friends and family.

★★★★★
Today I moved using their services for the second time. Alex's team was amazing! They were very courteous, respectful, organized and helped me greatly with all the objects that were not in a box. They disassembled all the beds and assembled them back perfectly, same as the desk. Everything came into the new house in perfect conditions. I recommend Alex or Bakha's team anytime.

I find that the most stressful part of moving isn't packing nor unpacking, but rather it's finding the right movers to do the job. Moving companies often outsource their people so one person might have had a great experience with their guys but that doesn't mean you will get the same people. The only thing you can do for yourself is clearly communicate your budget and expectation for your move. The rest is really a little bit of luck and ensuring that the company you hire has insurance, and professional owners/managers. Since I've moved 4 times in the past 6 years, including cross country, let's just say I've become somewhat knowledgeable and know what to expect from good movers. I spent a week looking through all the diff options on Yelp. Reached out to about 6 companies for quotes and ended up booking Global Moving Systems. I exchanged messages with their owner on yelp and once I confirmed that I will book them, someone from their office reached out to me the very next day to confirm details. After the phone call, I received an email with a link to put down my deposit. It was fast, simple, and convenient to book them. My movers arrived on time, knew what they were doing, and they went straight to work without wasting any time. My bigger pieces of furniture were carefully wrapped and they disassembled my bed frame as well as the brass legs to my sofa to avoid denting them. Once we got to my new home they were just as efficient in moving my items in. Stacked up my boxes nicely and asked me where I wanted each item of furniture. They even helped me put up my curtains and ensure my rug and rug padding were straight and aligned in my living room. As I am unpacking and settling in, I did notice a small scratch on my tv stand and one on my bed frame. They are not big enough for me to be concerned about. If you're going to move, just expect to have some flaws from wear and tear. Overall, the move went as efficiently and smoothly as it can be. I'm very happy with them and would definitely use them again.

Outstanding! From the beginning Global Moving was great to work with. Yuri was prompt and professional while booking my move. He answered all my questions and his recommendations were spot on. The 3-person moving crew was on time and meticulous. As retired military and experienced mover, I rate this crew as one of the best in my 15+ moves. They took care to ensure my belongings were well packed and safe, while carefully navigating through homes on both ends. Very professional and damage free move!

Updating review: The owner called me and personally apologized and offered to reimburse me $100 for the additional hour of labor. He truly cared that I was satisfied with choosing his company and I really appreciate the customer service. This company was ok. I gave them info about the size of my apartment and list of items and they quoted me a certain sized truck and time. All of my stuff didn't fit in the truck, which I understand they can't predict exactly, but I was hoping they would know what size truck would be needed based on moving experience. They also came at 10:30 when my arrive time was scheduled to be 9-10. They called ahead to let me know, but was still stressful because I had a time window for my loading dock reservation with the building.

Excellent interstate moving experience, David and Nagi were wonderful! The movers were on time, were considerate in moving fragile items, and made every effort to accommodate. Would highly recommend!
- Alexander S.

Moving is always so stressful, but these guys got me through the day. We had issues w cars parked in our designated moving truck spot, but they still managed to pull through by parking down the street and pushing our stuff up an incline. Thank you so much Naagi and Naagi!!

I have moved plenty of times and this was one of the best experiences I've ever had! The movers were so efficient and treated my belongings with respect. The prices are very fair as well. If I need to move again, I'll definitely use Global Moving Systems.

I used Global Moving Systems to move out of my house and into storage, as my lease was up and I'm quarantined out of state. I was anxious about having to facilitate them packing and moving my things without my being there, but overall, the company was very responsive leading up to my move, answered my questions ahead of time, and performed the move within the estimated number of hours. The reason for only three stars was the timing of the movers arrival and the lack of communication on move day. The movers were supposed to arrive between 1-4, and call me ahead of time so I could walk through what needed to be done with them. I moved meetings around at work, facilitated street parking, and friends to meet the movers assuming this window, and then heard nothing. Ultimately, after I called, I was told their earlier move had gone long--but they didn't arrive until 5:30pm and I had to keep calling the main line to get the movers status. There was no automatic updating on their part and it unfortunately made it stressful. I would recommend the crew, they were excellent and even FaceTimed me to make sure they had everything, but overall, the move day experience from the main management wasn't handled professionally.

Moved us out of the area. Very organized and efficient crew! They worked hard and never slowed down. Highly recommend!

This was my THIRD time using Global Moving Systems, and it is was a great experience! I hope not to be moving for a long time, but I would certainly use them again and I highly recommend them. They were able to provide me with a quote very promptly and scheduled my move day. The movers were quick, courteous, and hard working. All our things made it in the same condition, they even finished up early. Thanks for the great service!

These people are amazing. If you're stressed about picking a mover, let this be the end of your search and hire them ASAP. We were moving back to NYC from DC - which doesn't sound like a super far move, but honestly is rougher than it seems - unless you have the right team behind you, which we did. I searched Yelp a TON for different moving companies and got many quotes. Ultimately I chose Global because of their responsiveness, friendliness, ease of booking, great reviews, competitive pricing and ability to accommodate our needs. We asked if they could provide packing services (yes this is bougie but once you have it you can't go back) and they were happy to make it happen. We didn't lift a finger, they packed everything perfectly and safely (dishes, art, clothes, everything). What I was most impressed with was their positive attitude and ability to adapt when the going got tough. We ran into a few issues (totally unrelated to our movers) and they weren't phased. Examples: - Our building only allowed them to park for 2 hours so they had to find street parking and walk our furniture there - Traffic was WILD getting back to NY - We didn't arrive in NY until close to midnight and they made it work, still moved us in fully and didn't seem bothered that it was an insanely long day - Some psychopath on my street was yelling at them and they just laughed it off like pros They also dealt with my type A-ness of wanting the rug switched around multiple times until I liked where it was placed. Both guys were young and skinny but STRONG AF. Loved them. Anna is also a gem and was so easy to coordinate with. I pray we don't have to move again for a LONG time - but if you're in the DMV area (or prob anywhere!) and looking for a mover - your search stops here.

From the get go we had a really good experience with Nagi and Kenny. They called ahead of time to let us know they were coming. They were flexible with the DC street parking situation. Super efficient, quick and careful while packing. On top of it all they were really friendly. I would definitely recommend Global Moving Systems and I would use them next time I move!
- Adri N.

Bakha and his team did a fantastic job helping us to move from one house in DC to another. They truly went above and beyond. Both houses had challenging staircases and they navigated our furniture up and down them with no problem. There were a few larger pieces I was worried about, but they were able to carefully lower them from the second floor porch without batting an eye. When our box spring posed an issue with getting it up the stairs, Bakha and his team worked with us to figure out a solution and were able to get it through an upstairs window. Even with all of that, they were still in and out of both houses in ~3.5 hours (making the move also very affordable!). On top of all of that, Bakha and his team were extremely friendly and made sure to wear masks. Would definitely use this team again!

They did it again. The second move went very smoothly. Had some tricky pieces that needed attention and it was handled very professionally with zero bumps, scratches, or damage. Furniture was taken apart and reassembled perfectly. So pleased...gave each of the three movers a big tip! Being consistently good is hard to do. Recommend highly!!!! Nagi and Bat were amazing but disappointed in the fact that I ordered 3 men and a 24 foot truck and only 2 showed up. The company should have had a back up. It was not fair to Nagi and Bat and definitely not fair for the customer (us). I would expect an apology and some type of accommodation maybe on my next move. Poor Nagi and Bat had to lift a super heavy massage chair to the second floor. It is a miracle that they accomplished the feat without getting injured, damaging the chair, or damaging the house. Kudos to these two guys...buying them lunch and tipping them was not enough to make up fthe fact that two had to do the work of three men. I am raising my review to 5 Stars. After the move Evgeny from Global called and apologized with an explanation that their scheduled 3rd man got injured last minute. He even sent me a screen shot from the worker that morning. Evgeny was so professional and the customer service matched the excellence of his movers. Evgeny explained that they could not just send a replacement day worker because they only use reliable prove movers who will not damage my stuff or my house, which made a lot of sense to me. I am scheduling another move next month and Evgeny game me a discount which I am very grateful for. Btw 6 years ago I hired Global to do an office move when we acquired a small company. Now I can recommend them for both office and residential moving. If you are in the DC Metro area, this company is a Best Value Gem. Nagi and Bat were amazing but disappointed in the fact that I ordered 3 men and a 24 foot truck and only 2 showed up. The company should have had a back up. It was not fair to Nagi and Bat and definitely not fair for the customer (us). I would expect an apology and some type of accommodation maybe on my next move. Poor Nagi and Bat had to lift a super heavy massage chair to the second floor. It is a miracle that they accomplished the feat without getting injured, damaging the chair, or damaging the house.

I decided to use Global Moving Systems based on all the good yelp reviews. While I was filling out the online quote request form, they gave me a call right away to get more specifics on our apartment inventory! I also liked how after my quote was confirmed, I could still update my inventory just in case I forgot something over the phone. I also liked how they emailed me a 5 day reminder and a 1 day reminder before our move day. Come move day, the crew called me with their ETA! Usually I don't get calls from movers until they've actually arrived so I was pleasantly surprised! They moved all our boxes out of our apartment so quickly and they wrapped all of our furniture with blankets to make sure nothing was scratched! When we got to our townhouse, they did a great job moving our furniture up all the stairs without scratching our newly painted walls! I highly recommend using these guys!! Thanks Global Moving Systems for making our move into our first home stress-free!

Working with the two movers sent to perform my move, Naagi and Naagi, was very easy! They moved everything quickly, efficiently, and carefully despite having to move in the middle of the Covid pandemic.

Best customer service I've ever experienced from a moving company. The owner Eugenie bent over backwards to help me when my PODS delivery was delayed. Truly a lifesaver. Highly recommend this company!
