-
Well organized and orchestrated move. Minor issues that were addressed and solved right away.
-
All personnel from the movers to the office help were pleasant and professional and very thorough addressing all aspects of the move.
-
The three people we dealt with (Dave MacDonald, Michelle Harris & Dave Pike (driver)) were all professionals in every sense of the word.
-
Dave and Michelle were awesome. I was in the hospital when the movers loaded me in Cambridge, but my wife said they were efficient, courteous, and professional. The three movers who unloaded my belongings were the best. Careful, efficient, and pleasant to work with. I cannot adequately describe my gratitude to Humboldt and to United Van Lines.
-
I was very pleased with the crew of workers and their helpful manner. They worked very hard on a very hot day.
-
Initial pickup at 160 River was good. Delivery at 1 Lakeside Dr. was very good
-
The overall move went well, but there were attention to detail issues on both ends of the move, both packing and unloading.
-
Overall, United handled the cross country move well. Lots of logistics to work through and the coordinator, Elizaire Denis, did what we said he was going to do and was very professional throughout the process.
-
It was stressful and overwhelming to pack but once the movers got here, it went smoothly and they were very kind and personable. For me, it was well worth the money spent.
-
Excellent service. Very professional. Movers took care to wrap all of my fragile items.
-
Estimator, coordinator, and truck crew were excellent, packing crew was average
-
The move crew was excellent. The only area of improvement I could see was to do more prepacking the day before. It would have made it easier on the moving crew
-
Best sales presentation compared to other carriers.
-
Very efficient and careful. The Massachusetts Humboldt team leader especially stood out as a person who took careful inventory and care of our shipment.
-
I was apprehensive having 2 inexperienced guys removing antiques from house. Overall it was ok at both ends.
-
We had a great recommendation but our move had some problems that were quickly resolved.
-
All of our estimates were the same... Keli was confident, knowledgeable & professional! She made the difference!
-
Punctual and ontime pick up & delivery. Nice streamlined process and communications. Overall very nice experience.
-
Excellent experience from original contact with United Staff to delivery in Texas
-
The entire move team I dealt with was professional.
-
Our items are currently in storage. When moving our furniture and other items out of our home the process went smoothly.
-
Our move from Boston to Maryland was a good experience. Everyone was very professional and friendly. Our belongings were stored for months and delivered in excellent condition.
-
So easy!
-
Bill MacRae was excellent, handling the estimate in a timely fashion and doing so at a storage facility when I couldn’t be present. I was very appreciative of his efforts. Bethany Feiter was great, letting me know how things were going throughout the move. But the star of the show was Andre, my driver. Andre is TOP NOTCH!!! He packed up my storage unit and hauled it across the country. He was friendly, thorough, he knew items that were packed in boxes that even I didn’t know what was inside! He seemed to really care about doing his best job for me, and the crew he found to help out was also very friendly and STRONG! My husband and I can’t say enough about Andre. He is a credit to your company, and you are very lucky to have employees such as him. We sent him on his way with a care package full of snacks and treats. We were very impressed and would certainly recommend UVL/Humboldt Moving in a heartbeat!
-
Michelle was amazing. The movers on both ends couldn't have been nicer or more professional.
-
Every person who worked with us at United were clearly seasoned professionals and knowledgable about the moving industry. This created a sense of comfort and confidence. I especially want to thank Dave MacDonald. I cannot imagine a better manager.
-
This was our first out of state move and had gotten many quotes. The sales rep for United came to our house and gave us a firm quote. We set uo the delivery date and we wwre kept informed from start to finish. So glad we chose United!
-
Very professional personnel, all the way through my total experience. Each gave me a secure comfort level. Each move was done efficiently and expertly. I had no worries at all. Thank you!
-
wonderful service
-
From the beginning to the end of my move everyone was professional and courteous and handled all my possesdions as if they were there's.
-
Very pleased witk the loading snd unloading at both ends. Problem was the time interval. Picked up o 1/2/19 and not delivered until 1/17/19. Humbolt management was responsive and accomodating which saved the rating.
-
To start out, when ask what i was going to pack and what you were going to pack it was not mentioned if I packed it I had to provide the boxes, paper tape for the price I was given would include all of that. it was not, you should tell people that. Then I paid to have things packed that did not include unpacking? They took a part the beds and put them back together, but unpacking is not included. Things like this need to be told to 1st timers, We are older but had never moved liked this. I chose United because you are nation wide. Over all the move was good Bob was a great driver and kept us informed. Good Job
-
We were particularly impressed with the timely service of pickup and delivery. The estimator, ve coordinator, and loading crew were particularly excellent for us.

Moving is always stressful. Our movers helped to alleviate some of the stress. They were careful, helpful and accommodating. They were easy to work with.
-
Move was well executed from estimates to final delivery. All personal where great nd very helpful! They did what they said and the pricing was right on point ! The auto division was ecellent as well, no surprises and on point !
-
Your Humboldt partnership is excellent, affording an accurate estimate and very coordinated timing and follow up. In the MA office, Keli Morford and Michele Harris are extremely detailed and truly do make the move easy. The packers and loaders in the 2 phases were polite, efficient and very fast. THANK YOU The truck was driven by CLIVE M. Id# U40639 the delivery went extremely smoothly and his knowledge of the contents on his truck was very impressive. He did the physical and the accounting part at the end to ensure that everything was delivered, and personally went back and followed up on some boxes that I had not identified. His knowledge and professionalism needs to be recognized. THANK YOU I highly recommend Humboldt and United. Thank YOU.
-
The pickup by Andre was without an issue as well as the drop off. He was courteous and could not have been more helpful. You are lucky to have him in your employ....Excellent worker and I am so happy with everything!
-
timely and efficient pickup/delivery. great customer service and follow through. Considerate attention through out. Pickup and delivery crew were professional.
-
The moving staff and driver were very polite, calm and careful with our belongings. Everything arrived safely and in good condition
-
Our driver was AWSOME !!!!! His team both north and south showed up on time or even earlier which was fantastic! Moving is stressful enough yet they made it so much better than we ever anticipated . Please pass it on to our wonderful driver how much we appreciate him and his professionalism
-
It was great. The company was great to work with in bidding out the move...very efficient and detailed. Also the movers both in Boston and on the Minneapolis side were top notch and very professional and thorough.
-
Everyone we worked with on our move was fantastic. What excellent customer service! The team was responsive, flexible and understanding of the stress that comes with a move. I couldn't be happier.
-
Move went great. Only negative is that it took almost 3 weeks.
-
We were advised that we had about 3 crates full of stuff, so should order 3 crates, or 4 crates to be safe. We estimated our total cubic footage with a ruler, realized the true total was about 1 full crate, and went with 2 crates just to be safe. Everything almost fit in the first crate, with just a little left over for the second. It is fortunate that we disregarded the estimate we were given, and so did not purchase way more space than we needed. So no harm done in our case! But I imagine that many other customers might follow the advice they are given. If "within a factor of 3" is the most accurately you can estimate how much stuff someone has, you should just be honest and say you have no clue, rather than making up what essentially amounts to a random number of crates. Everything else went very smoothly. The movers who arrived day of were extremely competent, and did an unbelievably amazing job! We would definitely hire them again.
-
good move no issues except on arrival. Driver needed a certified check but someone forgot to tell us about it. would have been nice to know in advance since we were in Florida a week before our goods arrived.
-
Easy to work with. Everyone was very pleasant. It was nice that the driver knew when he would be in Oregon and stayed in touch with our daughter fir delivery.
-
Movers were courteous, professional, and fast. Fee was reasonable.
-
men were well trained and supervised throughout, Each part went well. Delivery to our new address was on time and done well.
-
The move was fine. I learned the difference between a packer and a mover. The movers did some packing and didn't do as good of a job. Probably because they aren't usally doing that portion.
-
We had a dresser and end table get slightly damaged but we were reimbursed for our troubles. The movers were professional and prompt. We were pleased overall.
-
I got 5 or 6 quotes for my move and United's was the highest. You were, however, the only company that sent a consultant to my home, that did not blatantly lowball the weight of my items, and the only one that did not ask for a deposit in advance. The rest of the process went smoothly. My moving coordinator was always reachable, the movers arrived on time at both places, and nothing was broken or damaged along the way.

pickup was fine at my home as usual but delivery to my new home was sloppy. One delivery person (the white guy) gauged the floor in several spots (with an electric fireplace delivery) and refused to deliver some packages to the storage area. So pickup and packaging was great but delivery just Ok. Delivery schedule was also great and the delivery notification was fine
-
Excellent service from the first phone call to delivery of my belongings.
-
Very great experience
-
quick and painless. Our stuff arrived much faster than we ever thought possible.
-
The best part is that Humboldt lived up to its motto: relax and get moving. Truly did a great job taking care of everything! Only negative experience is that I requested the 2nd stop in Middleton MA after the main stop in Portsmouth NH. I did this from the very beginning as I was worried I might need to send a few items from Portsmouth to Middleton. The day before the move I learned that you decided to go to Middleton before Portsmouth which then necessitated a 2nd move day trip to Middleton. That change should not have happened without discussing options with me first. Otherwise PERFECT move!

The entire process from making the first call and inquiry was handled methodically and so professionally. Enjoyed working with the Humboldt Group. From the owner to the estimator to the logistical person and the movers themselves. Pure excellence
-
Service was very good. Movers were very polite, professional, and hardworking. 2 pieces of furniture have chipped surfaces from the move but I think that is a reasonable result given the size of the move. I also REALLY APPRECIATED Eliza’s ongoing communication throughout the process. His prompt follow ups reduced my stress level materially! Thanks Eliza!
-
The movers were professional and caring.
-
Overall, the move was well coordinated. The driver and support staff were very careful with the boxes and furniture.
-
Our Driver was outstanding. Hard worker. Great communication. Felt very comfortable with him.

-
The movers in both RI and SC were amazing, congenial, and helpful. Bobby, our driver, was well organized and very pleasant to work with. Our furniture arrived on the day and time we were told.
-
The crew was well-organized despite the changing makeup from day to day and all worked very hard to ensure a smooth and efficient move.
-
We had a great experience with United. We moved about 1000 miles and the driver kept us posted the whole time. He called the day before to let us know what time he would be hear. Best of all he showed up early.
-
Super pleased with all aspects.
-
My driver Mike was very helpful on both ends. His helpers were very kind and respectful and efficient.
-

It took 3 days longer for furniture to arrive than it took us, which seemed a little too long.
-
Great experience. Rodrigo and his crew were very professional and worked very fast.
-
Company was in constant contact with me and reassured all is good with the move. Movers were awesome and very professional
-
Everyone from your company who was involved in our move did a great job. We never were left wondering where or when our cars or household items would be delivered. What an unstressful move it was in a very busy time, moving out of state.
-
a very complicated move that you all carried out without a misstep.
-
Wonderful men movers. Polite and extremely careful packing our home.

Very professional from first interaction on phone to set up appraisal to meeting Dave McDonald to moving day and communications from HQ. everyone was courteous, prompt and organized.
-
vERY FRIENDLY/ Team respected team leader (Bob), fast, all work, little play. Accommodating. I was happy to see Bob when he got to Florida- it was as if I ran into an old friend.
-
I wasn't on site during the packing and moving days, nor on the day the van arrived at destination; but was involved in all communication. My experience in that regard was excellent.
-
Very good experience. No issues at all
-
Professional caring movers at Humbold

On both ends, the move went very smoothly and we were pleased with the skill of the movers.
-
Everything went great. Just as quoted and planned.
-
The crew was fabulous. They were quick and efficient with no down time. I am very pleased.
-
All employees were extremely courteous and helpful. Our move was to a storage unit while our new home is being built. Because of this, we have not been able to unpack all our boxes or to check out the furniture to ensure there was no damage.
-
Great experience. Driver Steve Clark was fabulous. Team of loaders great too. All professional, polite and hard working.
-
A great job. Arrive on the early side both for pickup and drop off. Everyone was incredibly nice. The stuff arrived pretty well in tact, 1 dresser was slightly damaged and a few lamps, but to be expected. Everything else looked great. Everyone was really friendly and helpful. Really impressed that what we were quoted is what we got. Overall, very satisfied with United!
-
the process was painful because everyone was direct and friendly. The documentation was clearly written and timely. The follow up throughout the process was effective and reassuring,
-
Overall very happy. Some damage and we are filing claim, but everyone we dealt with wad wonderful!
-
Great customer service. Thank you for everything. All went smoothly. I did notice at final delivery, some heavy boxes were placed on top of lighter ones, resulting in some crushing of boxes. Not all boxes have been unpacked yet, so if any damage to goods, I am not aware of it yet.
-
Very good
-
Caring and professional and aiming to please. Humbolt movers terrific and personable, provided quality service with personality. Would highly recommend. Keep in constant contact, even after the move.

We are very satisfied.

From the initial estimate to the final step of the move found Humboldt to be responsible and responsive.

I was concerned items would be list or misplaced when loading smaller van to large transport and back again to smaller van. I was concerned about breakage as well

Stressful but necessary. You helped to de-stress things.

Mover crews on both ends were excellent and Richie the driver was a pro all the way, checking everything in and then accounting for everything out of his van.
-
Was disappointed when the two dates I offered were not able to be accommodated.
-
Great service at a good price, despite a few hiccups (damaged items)
-
Terrific from start to finish. Follow up was excellent, never a question as to what to expect. Exceeded expectations!
-
Moving is a confusing and stressful experience, but the physical moving done by Humboldt was relatively easy. the process was explained well when I first had a representative out to my house. The actual packing day, moving out day and moving in day were straightforward. I just had to be there and relax. The packers and movers were efficient and friendly when I asked questions.
-
Everything was great, all the movers were very personable, and the customer service was wonderful. They took great care with all of our things
-
Nothing I have ever experienced before.
-
Excellent job
-
Overall this was a great experience. From the first contact to the final delivery of my belongings. If other companies that United Van Lines uses is as professional as Humboldt Storage & Moving is I will be giving a lot of recommendations to people looking for a mover.
-
All fragile items were properly wrapped to protect against damage, and arrived in same condition. Very impressed with their professional manner and the handling of all our possessions. Steve did a wonderful job from start to finish.
-
Pete, the driver and main person on the job, was amazing. He was professional and personable and managed his crew well. He explained the specifics of the job and kept us informed and answered questions every step of the way. Also, the man who came to the house and gave us an estimate was thorough and professional and was available to answer questions as I decided which moving company to hire and once we did hire Humboldt, he was gracious and answered all my questions. Also, Michelle, our advisor for the move was terrific. Everyone we worked with from United/Humboldt was professional and personable and helped make this emotional and complicated move from Boston to SF as easy as possible.
-
Steve, Steve, Cory, & Bobby made this long distance move that was very overwhelming for me into a worry free move. They took me srep by step thru everything they were doing answered all of my questions and made it a smooth transition. Michelle kept in touch with me thru the whole move. David walked me thru everything at the walk thru of the move. A very professional team from beginning to end. I couldn't have asked for a better moving experience!
-
We had a great crew moving us, Willisome and Brian went above and beyond to make it as smooth and pleasant as possible.

The entire move including several deliveries in N. H. And Vermont went timely and efficiently.
-
movers arrived 3 days late.Truck broke down on route? Salesman said that a large van could get to my house thus eliminating extra loading and unloading of my property. This was never the intent and just a lie to get me to choose United. On the other hand, the drivers and movers on both ends were very nice and very skilled. Also there was no significant damage to any of my items.
-
We have moved across the country on several occasions. This is by far the best experience. Top notch crew.
-
Sales/quote process was great Packers were great loaders were OK Unloaders were OK Driver was OK
-
I have moved with United two times across the country. Each time they're wasn't any problem with the move.They kept me updated. The last time I moved my antique furniture, baby pictures, sentimental ceramics,all things I loved, and hadn't seen for 8 yrs. And I was pleased with conditions of my stuff.
-
Great job Steve and crew were great. Did a great job packing and labeling all boxes
-
Excellent service, went the extra mile for me. Great job all around.
