Island Moving | Grand Island, Ne Moving Services

Highly recommend. Went above and beyond! Would definitely use again!

See my Yelp review for the full long tale and photos.

I reached out to Island Movers ten days after the move, to give them a fair chance to respond before I left reviews. Four days later was told they had not spoken with their crew yet. Inquired again two weeks after the move, but they never replied, so here we go.

Very short version is they left two family heirloom chairs they unilaterally decided were junk outside by the trash, that didn't get found until the next day (thank goodness trash wasn't picked up that morning!), they packed several items poorly that led to damage (including an irreplaceable memorial for a pet), packed perishables with other unrelated items but didn't label them accordingly so stuff rotted before we found them during unpacking, appeared to have deliberately hidden some items to avoid packing them, and they left a BUNCH of stuff behind in the old place that we had to go move ourselves (small furnishings and various belongings). Good thing it wasn't a cross country move and we could go finish their job, imagine if we had moved across the country and didn't get back into the old place to see the stuff they left behind.

Value was not great compared to my past experiences. It cost us $3470 to move a 3BR townhome two miles across town, when I've spent less than that moving a larger household over 2,000 miles in the past.

All I can say for positives is that scheduling was easy, they arrived promptly when expected, and were done by the end of the day. Although most of the crew reportedly worked steady from what the wife observed, one guy seemed pretty whiny, repeatedly asking things like 'do we have to move this, too?' Yes, you're a MOVER. Is it marked to not move? No? Move the things!

If you're not put off by the cost, and if you can closely supervise, you'll probably be OK. If they eventually get back to me, I'll update this review.

I'm sorry to say that, after a good experience with this company last year, I requested a quote for loading services well over two weeks ago and still haven't gotten a response. I ended up going with someone else local who was immediately responsive to my request.
