I have moved with Old City Movers twice in the last two years. For both moves they worked efficiently and gave me great value for my money. The two different crews that I had for my moves were friendly and responsive and were able to move my heaviest furniture through narrow staircases without damaging the furniture or the walls. I would highly recommend their services for anyone that needs to move.

Pros: Efficient, friendly and accommodating

Cons: None

I recently made a move from Philadelphia, PA to Alexandria, VA... I used Old City Movers and my move went perfectly. After quite a bit of Internet research and countless phone calls with other moving companies, I finally decided to use Old City Movers. With Old City Movers, I received the personal service and attention I needed to make my move successful. Many of the other companies I considered have clearly over-complicated the process of moving! I called the POD company and they were not only terribly expensive but they also estimated my move taking three days! I needed to make my move in one day. I called some of the other large moving companies out there and again, I was amazed at the over-complication of what is a pretty straightforward process. I am very thankful to Old City for making my move simple, affordable and absolutely perfect. They have set the industry standard as far as I'm concerned. The other companies out there need to get back to basics or they are going to lose a lot of business to Old City Movers. One point to be made is that the success of any move is dependent upon your preparation. I did the best I could over the three days that I was packing my belongings to ensure that everything was packed and boxed appropriately. When the team from Old City arrived the morning of my move, I was ready and the rest was up to them. Do yourself a favor for your move... Call Old City Movers! Thanks Max Green... A very satisfied customer

Pros: Personal service. Kept it simple. Affordable. Experienced. A pleasure to work with.

Cons: None

We recently hired Old City Movers to move us from University City out to the burbs, and I can't recommend them enough. Our movers arrived on the appointed morning, only to find that someone had hijacked our building's loading dock and freight elevator. The guys took it all in stride and moved us out quickly through the passenger elevator. Even though they arrived an hour and a half after her guys, and even though we had more belongings, the Old City Movers still got done first. These guys were polite, fast, and very very efficient. I would recommend them to anyone, and should I move back into the city, I'd use them again in a heartbeat. There is no downside to using these guys.

Pros: fast, efficient, polite

Cons: none

I had these guys moving me this weekend, one word that sums it up “FANTASTIC"! These guys were such professionals. Quick, affordable and thoughtful are a few more words that describe this company and the 3 guys that came out. I would like to say that I do not work for nor have any relationship with this company. I would recommend these movers to anyone thinking of hiring movers. They made moving so painless. The job I had them do, I thought would take 3 hours, they did it in 2 and even put together some items once it arrived at my new place in that 2 hours time span. I am still in shock how good they were. They new their job and did it. They took care of everything. These 3 guys worked well together. The spoke between each other to get each task completed, from sizing up the house to how to get in on the truck in the most effective way and careful also.

Pros: Best moving experience

Cons: nothing bad to say

I've moved several times over the last few years, with my most recent being a local Philadelphia move this past weekend. I used Old City Movers after reading their positive ratings here and on other sites, and all of it is 100% true. They were easy to communicate with leading up to my move and always gave me the answers I needed right away. They were on time and moved really quickly, I was surprised at how smoothly everything went. I moved from a third floor walk up in the 'burbs to a midrise in the city in 30 degree temps, and the three movers I had (Mark, Matt, Adam) were professional, efficient, and really great people. I can honestly say I've never had a move go better than this one did, and I 100% would recommend them to anyone....they're fantastic!!!!!

Pros: easy to reach for questions, accurate quote, quick, efficient, knows what they're doing, personable and professional

These guys are easily the best movers in town. I'll only use Old City Movers from now on, and I've used most of the local companies to help with my many moves in Philly. I only wish that I had known about these guys sooner. You will definitely be happy using them. Oh yeah, great prices too.

Pros: Experienced, Quick, Cheap, and able to do what a different company said was impossible.

Cons: None

Moving is stressful, but these guys made the actual packing/moving of our stuff a breeze. They showed up on time, told us exactly how much it would cost per hour, then proceeded to immediately start carting stuff out. Overall, just a good moving experience. For once.

Pros: efficient, friendly, prompt

Cons: credit card payment costs extra
