I worked for a moving company through college so I can say for sure that this team was very professional and did an outstanding job. From the virtual estimate with Mary to working out the schedule with Jill and, working with the movers the whole experience was stress free. Special thanks to the crew Kirby, Jose, Matt and Miguel. You guys did a great job! I would highly recommend John’s and use them again for my future move.

I reached out to multiple moving companies regarding a quote for a local move from the Cary to Raleigh area. John’s Moving and Storage was the only company that not only had a real person answer the phone, but was able to walk me through the process and relieve all stress for my upcoming move. I had the pleasure of speaking with Jessica who gathered all my information and asked all the right questions to genuinely understand my needs for my move. It was clear from the beginning that what was important to me was the utmost importance to them. Jessica was incredibly positive and helpful. After our phone call, Jessica quickly emailed me a quote breaking down all expenses which clearly reflected what we had discussed for my specific move. John’s Moving and Storage has clearly set the standard for customer service, but also have the best rates by a long shot. After reaching out to several companies, I know that John’s Moving and Storage will do what it takes for my move to happen smoothly and efficiently. I’ll never have to call around again for my next move as I now know John’s Moving and Storage will take care of everything!

John's Moving & Storage were lifesavers in helping me arrange a family member's move in record time. Having a crew of 3 resulted in a speedy emptying of the apartment contents and quick loading of the truck. The crew of Matt, Omar, and Miguel were exceptional and their customer service was top notch from the placement of my first call to subsequent follow-up conversations finalizing all the details. I was very, very pleased and can proudly recommend them to anyone making a move.

I used John’s for move from Wake Forest to Cary and I cannot speak highly enough about the crew, company, and overall experience. Stan and Shawn wrapped up all of my furniture and you could clearly tell these guys not only had a boatload of experience but also took an immense amount of pride in their work. Not a scratch and they even finished under estimate, saving me $200! I highly recommend giving them a call for your moving needs!

Debra March

This is the second long distance move I have used Johns Moving in a year. All four crews were hard workers and intent on getting the job done efficiently. They were very methodical in packing my belongings into the truck. I would advise anyone to use them and would again if needed.

Amanda Rokkam

★★★★★

Best moving company I have ever worked with. The movers were super nice and were very open to feedback. They moved us from a 2500 sf home to a 3100sf home all in one day. Nothing damaged! I recommend anyone looking for quality, professional, reasonably priced movers to contact John’s Movers!!

Mitzi Scarborough

I was highly impressed with this office move. John's Moving & Storage team was responsible for picking up the furniture in Durham, NC and relocating to Greenville, SC. The 3 guys that handled our delivery and installation of furniture were professional, kind, nice, and personable. I felt very comfortable around them all. They worked proficiently and quickly! I would hire them again.

Taylor Allen

★★★★★

My wife and I worked with John's Moving & Storage when we moved out of our house and into our new house. Having the ability to store the furniture is a huge advantage. Both moving teams were on time and worked very hard to finish on time. If there was any confusion, the team would ask me before they moved anything. That gave me a lot of trust in them! Magan was very helpful in communicating times and schedule. Highly recommend!

★★★★★

We learned about John’s Moving and Storage from our realtor and could not have been more pleased. Office staff Jill and Jennifer are great when it comes to responsiveness and accurate estimates. The moving team, which we have used on two occasions now, is incredible. Polite, professional, extremely careful with items, and adept. And there were no surprises when it came to financial settlement. In fact, on both occasions actual charges were less than the estimate. We can recommend John’s without reservation.

This is the second time we have used John's moving...they were right on time and very professional. Both times we used them they finished at least 2 hours earlier and refunded us the difference. this is the only time I have used a moving service twice, and highly recommend them.

Beth Breeden

★★★★★

We have used John's Moving and Storage for several moves, both personal and professional, and have recommended them to family and friends. They are prompt, courteous, extremely well organized, and do a great job.

JB B

★★★★★

Johns moving associates were responsive and easy to communicate with. The team that arrived were strong ( I have some very large heavy furniture) and able to determine the best angles and methods to move the furniture without damaging it or the walls or doors. I’ve had some horrible experiences moving this same furniture in the past that required cutting holes in the walls or movers that broke the doors or punched holes in the wall trying to move it. . So this isn’t easy furniture to move. They made it seem easy. They never complained about the heavy, odd shaped furniture Once. They were very polite and I highly recommend them.

Bill R

★★★★★

Our experience with John's Moving moving was great. They helped us with a local move in June 2020. The guys were took their time wrapping every piece of furniture so it would not get damaged in the truck, and were very careful when moving everything into the new house. They even hauled our heavy exercise bike up to the third floor! They finished our move in less time than was originally quoted, so our bill was less than expected. I would recommend for a local move.

Kevin Bell

★★★★★

We had a great experience with John's moving company as we moved into our new home. We chose John's by way of a friend's referral (we used another company in 2019 to move into an apartment while kicking off a home build, but that company left minor furniture damage and nicks on the walls - leading us to a choose a different company when moving once the home build was complete this year - 2020, so we chose John's per the referral). John's did not disappoint! The crew was right on time, moved faster than estimated, took care of our furniture and our walls, and the crew was very pleasant and professional. Kudos to John's and to Ryan, Stan, and Jameson for a job well done - Thank you!

Sonia Decker

★★★★★

We recently used John’s Moving & Storage for our move and we were very impressed with how courteous and professional they were. We had our stuff picked up one day and delivered several days later. Both teams made sure to introduce themselves to each of us upon arrival. They had everything quickly loaded up on the truck. The day of delivery, the team again very quickly unloaded everything and had it all in the assigned rooms. There was no damage to any of our belongings, which was impressive because we have some very heavy furniture. I would recommend this company to anyone needing to make a move, they were so easy to work with and very accommodating.

Ryan (Mailbox)

★★★★★

Deon and his crew were great. Hiring them was worth every penny. They took care of our belongings and were very friendly in the process. If you are looking for movers give John's a try for sure.

Johns Moving recently helped us to move out of our home of 30 years. They were recommended to us by close friends who had a great experience with them. While moving is never much fun, especially after spending 30 years in a home, I would like to say that everything, from the initial contact and estimate thru to the execution of the move went very smoothly. The guys, Eric, Ryan, Stanley and the rest of the crew were cheerful, careful and professional. Super nice guys!On the day of our closing, we discovered that Buyers had specified in the contract that they wanted our refrigerator (which was now in storage at Johns Movers). A mistake by me! The response by Johns Movers to get the refrigerator out of storage and delivered back to the house that we sold was handled quickly and cheerfully. I give the 5 stars all the way!Glen B

From the moment I first spoke with Tyeishia and met with Jamel, I knew I was in good hands. Tyeishia has the patience of a saint as she handled my worries and packing questions , over and over as sometimes my mind was too full to understand the first time..lol... Jamel was very thorough in all the details and was willing to negotiate to meet the terms of another moving company because we both knew John's Moving was the better fit. When the young men came on moving day, they were on time, so polite and friendly and very careful with our things. Both days the men worked hard and consistently, and very much appreciated our buying them wings for lunch 😉 A couple times they noticed us struggling with something and quickly offered help. When there was an accident with a couple pieces, they were quick to tell me what happened, even though it was no big deal (and I didn't even see it)....in other words, they were an honest bunch of guys that I hope I get when we move out of storage into our new home. Granted, there are a lot of choices in moving companies but we are so glad we went with John's and highly recommend them. This is our 6th move and I would say, so far, it's been the best.

I am a real estate agent and I recommend them to all my clients. They have personally moved me twice and I could not be more pleased. They go above and beyond. This last move was quite stressful and I was so thankful for them. 🙂

I used John's for a short move and could not have been happier! The staff was very professional, and arrived on time move day. Highly recommended!

Pamela Williams

★★★★★

Such a wonderful moving experience! Arrived on time, explained all paperwork and responsibilities in detail, delivered contents to new home with no damages. I have never used a moving company before and didn't know what to expect. They deserve 5++stars - you won't be disappointed!

Jon

★★★★★

Absolutely fantastic for long distance moves. I used them to move from North Carolina to California. I did all my own packing, then did all the heavy lifting and transporting. Nothing got broken, it all arrived in great condition. The crew was clean and worked extremely fast while also being very careful with my belongings. Their prices were extremely competitive, especially for the level of service. They even transported both of my cars in the same truck as all my stuff, which was fantastic. Delivery was exactly as scheduled. Literally, the driver said he would be to my house at 8 am for pickup and delivery. He showed up at 8:03 for pickup and 7:59 for delivery. You just can't get better than that. John's used ts Van lines for the actual transportation of my belongings. They were equally as great. I would happily use either company again and would recommend them to anyone planning a move. Moves are incredibly stressful and John's did everything they could to make it a pleasant experience for me.

A Baldzikowski

★★★★★

After contacting multiple moving companies, John's Moving and Storage gave me the most thorough information and responses in order to make my decision. Hands down, they were my first choice and I could not have been more pleased with the result. The movers were efficient and very pleasant and delivered in the time frame that was estimated. I highly recommend them and would certainly engage them in the future. Great job and compliments from a satisfied customer!

Marc Sirkin

★★★★★

A pleasurable moving experience? Yes! These folks were excellent to work with - from the quote to the move. Awesome. Ours was a local move, but from the sound of it from our great crew, John's can also do regional and national moves as well.

Maria Apostolides

★★★★★

They did a great job.

Carol Caruso

★★★★★

Deciding to move after being in one location for nearly 18 years, I was a bit lost on the best movers to use. They were the only company that came out to my place for a visual inspection before they gave me a quote; therefore their price was accurate and there were no unexpected charges when they came to pack me up. Their pricing was very reasonable. They were prompt, fast, careful and very friendly. I felt very comfortable with using them. I did do most of the packing myself to save cost there; however they took apart several pieces of furniture with my first move and put everything back together perfectly at my new place. We had a fun time together. It felt like family helping family without the complaining and whining! 🙂 I strongly recommend using John's Moving and Storage.

Eric and his crew from John's Moving moved us on Monday, May 13, 2019, and they did an amazing job. There was intermittent rain that day and our furniture was wrapped in plastic to avoid water penetration. Furniture was also heavily padded to ensure against possible damage from nicks and scratches. The second story of our former house is accessed by a staircase with a landing and a turn half way up. The crew lined the walls of the landing with large sheets of cardboard to protect the house from possible nicks and scratches.Over my lifetime I have moved many times but never with the level of care provided by this crew from John's Moving. There was not a single mark on any kind on our furniture or on the walls and doors of either house.Thank you.

★★★★★

This was the 2nd time we used John's Moving Company, and just like the 1st time it went great. Now I admit they were delayed by another job, but they sent out an additional mover to get us back on time with the move.All the movers really nice, and professional. Highly recommend John's Moving Company.

Jim & Debbie Glasier

★★★★★

Our move went very smooth with John's Moving & Storage. We contracted to have our furniture moved and not our other belongings as we were able to move those things ourselves. The 3 men that did the actual moving worked great as a team. They reviewed what was to be moved, had a plan on what to move out first and worked hard, efficiently and carefully taking things apart, moving our furniture out to the truck and later at our new home putting things back together and moving our things in. They even arrived a half hour early and our actual final cost was less than the estimate.

Alice Crockett

★★★★★

I utilized John’s moving when we sold our house and bought a new home. They were very professional and kind! They were upfront with cost and services. Very flexible and willing to work around your needs. I needed them to keep our things overnight, because the house had to be cleared out the day before we signed over the house and bought our new house. They took care of everything! Highly recommend them!

Alicia Hester

★★★★★

Could not be happier with the service from these guys! We have used them twice for an entire office relocation and were VERY PLEASED with them. Also recently used them for a home move and they were AWESOME!! Reasonable rate and very courteous - HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Suzanne Pomrehn

★★★★★

Great experience! Jamal came and calculated price. Was able to give me 3 price options depending on how much/little packing we did ourselves. When closing dates changed they were able to store my entire household for two nights at a fair price. It poured rain on both my move out and move in days and they were so considerate of my home (s). And all of the moving guys were so, so awesome!! Special shout out to Cedric, Wayne and Omar! They made a stressful time fun, were quick and most important careful. Worth every penny!

Real easy to do business with this company l needed to move a day ahead of my schedule date called them and there was no problem for them to come and move me a day earlier also they did not charge me the full price they had coated me because they were finished 2 hrs earlier l give this company a 5 star rating and l will use them to move to my new home when it is done Highly recommend John's moving & storageBob

This was the second time we have used John’s Moving, and going forward they will be the only movers that we use. They are courteous, professional, and careful with our furniture and boxes. Our family enjoyed having the crew around because they laugh, joke, and had great attitudes. They made a potentially stressful day very easy. From the staff at the office to the crew that moved us, the experience with John’s Moving is five stars all around.

Gennell Kessler

★★★★★

The men showed up on time and were very friendly and pleasant. They assessed the situation buy looking at what had to be moved, formulated a plan and got busy moving all my things.They worked well as a team. When we arrived at my new place to unload that went great too. Looked inside and started unpacking the truck, never once compained about some of the heavy pieces of furniture I had and always asked where I wanted to place the furniture. And took loads of boxes upstaris but always asked if furniture was in the correct place, they wanted me to be happy!

John's Moving Company made moving easy. They were very flexible when my closing date changed. We were really pleased with their service. I would use them again for my next move.

John Milholland

★★★★★

We have moved several times over our almost 50 years of marriage and this was the most professional, smoothest move we have ever had. The men doing the hard labor were careful to wrap all the furniture, which we've never had in the past. (In the past furniture not wrapped would be wedged between mattresses and other wrapped furniture). They were also polite and personable and punctual. The office staff doing the estimating and arranging were also extremely helpful and honest. In fact, the cost of the move was below their estimate. I can recommend John's Moving without reservation.

We could not have been more pleased with our move by John's Moving. The guys got to our house at 3PM. Knew they were tired from the previous move that day but they had an amazingly cheerful attitude. Finished by 8PM and they did a great job, nothing damaged. Would definitely recommend John's moving.

Sherri Ragazzo

★★★★★

John’s Moving was the best I have worked with by far. Very courteous, worked with our schedule. Very prompt and moved all our office furniture carefully. The office staff was very polite, helpful and got all the information I needed quickly. Would highly recommend using them for any move.

Jamie Gasparini

Working with John's Moving & Storage was so easy and took off so much stress from moving. From the moment I called and booked our moving to the time the crew left after completing our move, we were treated with care and excellent customer service. The crew that moved our personal belongings were extremely careful and very professional. Such a great overall experience!

Heather Sorenson

Used them to move our research lab from Florida to North Carolina... I have never worked with such a professional group as this one!! Everyone was so friendly and helpful and knew what they were doing! They packed everything perfectly and got our stuff to lab in a timely manner. We had equipment worth thousands of dollars and everything arrived in perfect condition! I highly recommend using John’s Moving!!!!

We've used John's Moving for our last two moves. We've found them to be courteous, hard-working and respectful of our property.When the owner is considering a new hire for one of his crews, he has the crew members interview the candidate to be more certain of a good hire.Their rates are competitive and they give you a $50 credit toward their boxes.They maintain an A+ rating with the BBB.

Christine Letcher

★★★★★

John's movers went above and beyond to make sure our furniture, walls and floors were all protected. They were professional, timely and very pleasant. The guys even re-taped our front door and put floor protection down for a different washer/dryer delivery that showed up right as they were packing up.

Emily Jessee _ Staff - FuquayVarinaHS

★★★★★

John's Moving & Storage was amazing for our recent move. We called a month out unsure if they could accommodate us. They came out the next day to assess our needs. We were very pleased with the level of professionalism from start to end. Each room and pieces in the attic were noted and our estimate was accurate to the final check we wrote. Each employee involved in our job was kind, gentle and careful. Examples to the level of detail, rubber mats were put down to protect newly stained and polished wooden floors, door frames were wrapped and heavy furniture was handled by all movers present that day. My highest recommendation is given.

Jen Savage

★★★★★

From my very first call to the moving truck driving away. Our experience with John’s Moving and Storage was great. My estimate to the final bill was very accurate. The moving crew consisted of 3 guys who diligently work to ensure everything was securely packed. I highly recommend John’s Moving and Storage for all your moving and storage needs.Jen Savage

The movers we're polite and professional.They worked very hard and were careful with our stuff. When put refrigerator would not fit through the door, they worked together to solve the problem.

We used John's Moving and Storage to move from Fuquay-Varina to coastal North Carolina. This was the second move we arranged through John's. We chose John's because we had an excellent experience with them on our first move from Apex to Fuquay-Varina. We find them economical and professional. The estimate process was very straightforward. There were no surprises. Packing was through. The crew making delivery and unloading were very accommodating about putting items where we wanted them. I'm happy to recommend John's to others.

Joe Smith

★★★★★

I am very grateful to have used John's Moving & Storage for my move in December. After waiting for them to arrive to pack up my home I realized I had given them the wrong date for my move. I called to see if they could somehow move me on the day that I called. Fortunately, they were able to assemble a team at the last minute, which saved me all kinds of trouble. Despite the rain, the team was extremely, polite, knowledgable, and hard working. They truly saved me a world of trouble and did so with such a positive attitude. I would highly recommend them to anyone seeking a move or storage.

We have moved over 8 times in the past 25 years and by far this was one of the best experiences we have ever had! We had an unusal circumstance and had to literally go day to day to have our move date confirmed. We were able to confirm the date ONE day before we were to be out of our home! From the first phone call to the truck pulling out of our driveway....Jamel, Jill, Deon, Ron, Gregory and Justin....we can never thank you ENOUGH for being patient with us and loving our "stuff" with tender-loving care!! God Bless ALL of you richly!!!

We used John’s moving company for our recent move from Raleigh to Wake Forest. The estimate visit was professional. They walked through the house quickly and was able to prepare the estimate immediately. Prior to moving day, correspondence was made to best fit my schedule. On moving day, the guys were timely, efficient and got the work done effortlessly. I don’t’ even know when they took a break. When they arrived to the new house, they were nice enough to move something for me that was there as well. I would recommend John’s moving to anyone needing moving services.

Vickie Adams

★★★★★

We chose John's Moving and Storage because of their excellent reputation, and we were not disappointed! They were very professional - from the initial estimate to the actual move and beyond. My furniture was wrapped securely and handled carefully. They even moved our piano! Our job was tough, as it required dropping off half at a storage facility and the other half up two flights of stairs to an apartment, but there were no complaints! I definitely plan to use them on our next move!

I would use them every time. They were on time and very professional! Hands down, the best moving company I've ever dealt with. Thanks for being so professional!

Dennis Zazem

★★★★★

The guys were on time and ready to start the move. They were courteous and I could tell right away that they knew what they were doing. In other words, they weren't just day laborers. They were full time employees . The lead guy explained how they were handling different items of furniture. I admit I was a little concerned when they were coming down the stairs with a 89 inch leather couch that reclined on each end. That thing was heavy but they pulled it off seamlessly. Things went just as smoothly at the other end when they moved us in to our new place. When it came to pay the bill, I was pleasantly surprised to find that they came in under the estimate. I would not hesitate to recommend this company to anyone looking for a moving company.

Liz Robinson

★★★★★

We were so happy with the service we got from John's Moving. Their office staff were great to get us scheduled. The move came in under what they quoted us.
