Blankenship Movers

Really disappointed. From the moment they arrived there were issues. They took 2 hrs to get to a location that was 45 mins away, movers smelled like alcohol, they scratched, scuffed and took CHUNKS out of our brand new home. I’m so upset. Bent my husbands brand new Blackstone grill so now he can’t use one of the shelves on the side. Wrapped our mattress wrong so now it’s lumpy and uneven, lost pieces to our bed frame and had the audacity to ask for a tip. They also showed up with an extra guy then told me I just needed to pay for it. I would not recommend & honestly hope someone gets back to me so we can talk about some sort of refund because there is so.much. damage

They helped us move from city to the suburb, and I was unhappy with the service. Initially the quote for the move was approx. $1100, a 5 1/2 to 6 hour job. I gave the owner a video walkthrough of my apartment to get an accurate estimate. The move manager (on the day of the move) also surveyed the apartment and estimated 5.5 to 6 hours. In the end, it took 9 hours to finish the job. I found their move method, organization, load and unload activities to be inefficient and the time it took to finish the move says it. I saw multiple movers take a single box at a time (light boxes like a humidifier box or a toy box for the kid). Their process, speed, effort was quite slow (once again, 9 hours!). The mover manager said there were more boxers than anticipated and some of the boxes were not labelled. That should not add 3 hours! There was no official box count given and we directed them to the right rooms if something wasn't labelled. Beyond that, after the move they dumped previous moves garbage into our garbage can. It was full of junk, from boxes, to throwaway tools, food packaging and what not. It took me an hour to sort everything out (garbage vs recycle) and clean the can. One of the movers was not comfortable wearing masks. I asked twice (directly and also instructed the move manager) to have everyone wear a mask, especially when they are inside the house. One of the movers said I can’t breath wearing the mask and his mask was off for most of the move. Overall, they showed up on time, were professional and courteous but had major misses in other areas: - Took 9 hours and I ended up paying a lot more than initially estimated - Move organization, process was inefficient - Threw other people’s trash into our garbage - Didn’t take COVID precautions, knowing there was a senior citizen and kids in the house - Didn’t do a thorough job with the reassembly of things (bed frame didn’t have all the screws in place)

This company helped me out in a pinch when another company had totally screwed a family member. The owner of Blankenship kindly helped me understand pricing, exactly what his company would do, and found a spot on his calendar. Very good customer service.

3 successful moves in the last 4 years with these guys! They do not joke with their claim to white glove service. From the customer service upon quote to the actual moving and packing process, I will never use another moving company ever again. Thanks for everything you guys have done!

I sold a house and bought a house this spring. We downsized and streamlined. The team at Blankemship is amazing! Sean made sure all my concerns were addressed and gave me the best pricing. Excellent communication throughout. His team worked quickly and took great care of our belongins and were so kind.
