Metropolis Moving

Amazing movers! Moved everything out of my studio apartment into my new one in four hours total. Super easy working with them! Can’t recommend them enough!

Metropolis moving company is truly amazing. From my first phone call to Metropolis, Matt was extremely communicative, professional, and helpful. I reached out just a week prior to my move, and Matt kindly accommodated my moving date. I was on a tight budget, and he gave me an excellent price. I was able to tell from initial interaction with Matt just how honest and courteous he is. On the day of the move, Alan and Jerome were our movers. They arrived closer to the beginning of the time window, which is amazing considering the crazy NYC traffic. Alan and Jerome went above and beyond of being professional, helpful, friendly and all around wonderful guys. They wrapped, packed, and loaded the truck with such great care and high level of efficiency. They drove the truck to a storage unit in New Jersey, and knowing that the storage facility was closing at 10 pm, they first unloaded and brought everything upstairs, to make sure nothing was left behind at closing time. Once upstairs, they loaded our seemingly small unit incredibly well. Alan and Jerome were excellent with space consolidation, and were able to carefully fit all our stuff in a 10×10 unit. I’m certain everybody knows just how incredibly stressful moving can be, and Metropolis moving company eased that stress beyond measure! I highly recommend Metropolis, and will surely be using the company myself in the future! Thank you kindly Metropolis! You guys are the best!

Metropolis was recommended by a good friend of mine who had used them before. Their price was much more competitive than any other moving co. I looked into, and their svs was great. Matt was very responsive and kept in touch with routine updates and confirmations. Pricing was upfront without any hidden charges or sudden changes to the final charge. My movers Chris and Radik were great — very professional, super fast, friendly, and they packed everything up nicely. Very smooth and painless experience overall. Overall, extremely pleased with their quality of svs. and would highly recommend them (and will certainly use them again in the future). Best to contact them on their website first to get the quickest initial response and an immediate quote.

My boyfriend and I moved from a ground floor apartment in Greenpoint to a fifth floor walk-​up in Gramercy and we used Metropolis. First off, this company is great with communication. They responded quickly to emails and provided us with all the information we needed for our move ahead of time – even our movers’ phone numbers. Alan and Nick were fantastic. They arrived early, worked efficiently, and were very pleasant to work with. Four flights of stairs make for a difficult move and they did an excellent job. Furthermore, this company offers a flat rate for services and was the cheapest I found in my area. We lucked out! I would definitely use Metropolis again and recommend to any friends who are moving. Thank you!

I can’t say enough nice things about my experience with Metropolis. I didn’t use them for my entire move, but hired two of their movers to help load and pack my rental truck. I had to reschedule a couple of times, and had a lot of questions, and the owner Matt was always friendly, immediately answered my calls or emails, and was extremely helpful with everything. I got the flu at the last minute and couldn’t even be there on moving day, but movers Chris and Radik helped my dad pack up the rest of my stuff, moved all of my furniture safely and quickly into the truck, and not a single thing shifted during the 2 ½ hour drive to Connecticut. Every single person was very friendly and did an amazing job. And they were less expensive than some competitors, to boot! Thanks, Metropolis – highly recommend!

This company was highly recommended to me by a co-​worker who used them during the summer. I looked around at many other moving companies based on recommendations from friends, but each company was double or triple the price that was quoted to me by Metropolis, so I went with them. My decision was great. Matt was extremely professional and timely in his responses when I inquired about the price. Also, he was able to accommodate me even though I had only reserved less than a week before (and at the end of the month). The price never changed ether, even though I added on (and e-​mailed) a few extra boxes the day before my move.
My movers were Chris and Mikko, and they were fantastic! They called me with their ETA before arriving and even waited in the truck for about 15 minutes (while I was finishing up a few boxes). They quickly and professionally wrapped and moved of my furniture, and were extremely fast. They were also really friendly and accommodating! It was overall a great experience.
I had a LOT of stuff, and it took less than 4 hours from Manhattan to Brooklyn, which was great!!! highly recommend!

Metropolis Moving was highly recommended by my close friends who hired them over the summer. I shopped around a bit and was immediately impressed by Matt’s timely thorough responses, patience with my questions, etc. I’ve had some bad experience with movers in the past, so I wanted to be totally sure that I made the right decisions. I was pleased to see all the great reviews on Unilocal.I did end up getting a *slightly* lower quote from another company, who didn’t have as great reviews, so I was hesitant to use them anyway, but Matt kindly matched the price, which was really going above and beyond. (The quote he’d given me was already reasonable and one of the best we’d gotten, but he clearly understands what it is to be on a NYC budget where ever dollar counts.)
Our movers were Chris and Mikko, and they were fantastic! Communicated their ETA before arriving, took care of all of our furniture, and were fast and honestly made it look easy. On top of all of that, they were just really friendly and nice, which of course is important when you are trusting somebody with your belongings! It was overall a great experience.
We’re not planning on moving again soon, but when we do, I know my first call will be to Metropolis. I’ll be recommending the company/​specific movers to any of our friends/​family moving, too!

Metropolis moving was recommended to me through Nooklyn and I was not disappointed. The whole process was so simple and professional. The online quote was simple and easy to use and I got a quote in under an hour after I submitted. My movers were Alan and Milton and they treated my stuff with more care than I treat my stuff! The price was a low flat rate and after calling for quotes all day they were the most competitive. You can rest assured that they’re a legit moving company that won’t be here today and gone tomorrow. Definitely loved their service!

Metropolis Moving was recommended to me by a co-​worker who has moved several times with using several different companies. He said they were the best.
I went through the website to request a quote – filled out an estimated amount of things that needed to be moved as well as the two locations – and Matt got back to me in under an hour with a highly competitive fixed price. If I had any changes to the inventory being moved, it would be an easy email to update him and he will adjust the price accordingly as long as they were notified a day in advance. I had a couple of questions concerning the preparation of the move (i.e. mattress bags, assembling /​disassembling furniture) and he was very patient and very detailed in giving me answers. he provided a comprehensive list of things to keep in mind before they arrived. If the other reviews on this page are anything to go by, then the professionalism extends to moving day as well.
Unfortunately, my moving plans ended up changing (got rid of most of our furniture, didn’t really need to move anything). However, I’ve had a such a painless experience with these guys so far that I will definitely be keeping them in mind for my next move.
P. S. Their website has a lot of helpful information and tips to help anyone preparing to move.

Thank Goodness that I check reviews, I used this Metropolis Moving Company because of the great reviews on Unilocal.These guys are great Chris and Mikko came on time and did an awesome job. Thanks Matt for walking me through this move and for always, and I mean always getting right back to me when I had questions. I will DEFINETLY use these guys again. Highly recommended. I will pass on to anyone who needs a moving job well done. Thanks Chris and Mikko… Rebecca

I have to say we have used moving companies in the past. BUT METROPOLIS MOVERS ROCK!!!
The care they take is superior. It is as if they were moving their own pieces. Matt is an awesome business owner and will guide you with your moving needs.
Will definitely be calling Metropolis and highly recommend them to anyone who is in need of moving!!!

I recommend these guys 1000 times!
Super efficient, reliable, honest and friendly service.
They were on time and very cordial.
Moving can be so stressful and for sure they made the experience a lot easier.
Matt was very helpful over the phone and Chris and AJ were the best team to move my stuff. They were very cautious, specially with my dear sewing machine.
Seriously, hire these guys, best service in NYC!

Heard about Metropolis through a friend of a friend. My roommate and I were moving from our old apartment in the East Village to our new one in Mid-​town east, overall we had an excellent experience. They were efficient, professional, and in constant communication with us through out the whole process. Would definitely recommend and/​or use them again.
Booking — They have you go through and check off items you will need moved (bed frames, dressers, boxes, etc.). The list is pretty comprehensive. They then base their quote off of your checklist (move is priced by items not per hour). They were really flexible about adjusting the inventory and updating your quote based on any changes (additions or subtractions). For example, my roommate and I severely underestimated the number of boxes we had but we just emailed them with updates.
Move — The day before they sent us an email with the contact info of the two guys who would be moving us. They guys showed up on time to the move and were very courteous, efficient, and professional.
Price — Among the moving companies I reached out to, they were one of the least expensive ones. They were completely upfront about any price changes as we adjusted our inventory list (turns out my roommate and I had more stuff than we thought!). Day of we paid by credit card once the move was complete and the price did not change from their last quote.

Prompt, friendly, and efficient! A pleasure to work with from beginning to end. Hired them to load a U-​Haul prior to a cross-​country trip and the 2-​man team got everything done in a matter of a couple hours.

We could not say enough about Matt and his crew — they are true life saviors. Besides the fact that they are cool, calm and collected they gave us the best deal for our move from Williamsburg to Bushwick. They are also crazy creative when it comes to problem furniture.
Case in point: Our sofa would not fit through the front door of our 1^st floor apt so they took it upstairs and moved it through the back window while Matt stood on a freaking latter trying to catch it. It got into our apartment from the backyard unscathed.
They are really incredible and will recommended them to evryone!

These people are amazing! I moved from Flatbush to Harlem on Monday and the experience was seamless. Matt was extremely responsive throughout the process and took care to make sure I had all necessary information prior to moving day. The movers came within the assigned timeframe and were very energetic and friendly. My move was completed quickly and efficiently with no damage to my property.
Fantastic company, I definitely recommend to all my friends and to you too :-)

I recently made the cross from Brooklyn into Manhattan and this was my first time hiring movers instead of bribing friends with beer and pizza. I decided to go with these guys and could not have made a better choice.
The turnaround time for my quote request was fast and the quote itself was very reasonable. During the weeks leading up to the move, Matt was easy to reach and always got back to me quickly. The morning of, I requested a window of 8:00 — 9:00am and they showed up around 8:30am. Let me tell you, these guys are QUICK. I was on my phone ordering an Über and next thing I know the entire apartment is cleared out. And they were just as great when unloading. Quick and efficient, even with the narrow stairwells of the new building.
These guys are friendly, professional and damn good at what they do. I had a great experience and would definitely hire Metropolis again.

Hands down the best movers ever! I was moving from Hoboken to Brooklyn and they handled the move seamlessly.
Extremely reasonably pricing, which is quoted based on the items they are moving and the number of floors, and great customer service.
Matt, who I believe is the owner, was consistently available for contacting and made the process extremely smooth. Then on the day of the move, we had two movers (Steve and Chris) who were extremely professional and efficient considering the number of items we had. They took time and extreme care in wrapping all my furniture and handled all my items as if they were their own. Nothing was damaged at all and there were absolutely no complaints.
If you are moving to or from the NY Metro area… these are the guys to use!

Metropolis was recommended by a friend and I couldn’t be more pleased. The website made getting a quote easy and they contacted me promptly with a very reasonable price for my move. The day before I got an email to verify that they were coming, a nice reassurance before moving day.
They arrived at the early end of the time window they gave me and promptly packed up my items, even a large, difficult wardrobe. On the other end of the move, Matt joined the other 2 movers to ensure the trip up to my new 5^th floor apartment went smooth and quick. They were all friendly and professional the whole time. After unpacking, it’s nice to find not a single item was damaged or broken.
Great team of people, great price, and very professional. Definitely made moving day a stress free experience!

Could not have been a more positive experience. I’ll start with the website which is probably the most straightforward moving website available. Filling out the inventory was a piece of cake and I was quickly contacted with an online quote. The quote was one of the lowest that we received which was great, but always raises an eyebrow. I ended up emailing Matt back and forth many times with questions and he supplied quick clear replies to all of my questions. After looking at 5 or 6 companies we decided to go with Metropolis.
The week of the move, I realized that we weren’t taking as many big furniture items as we had originally thought but we were going to have more boxes. I emailed Matt to tell him of the changes and he gave me a new quote which was less than the original. I should note that if you stay true to the list, the quote is locked in and will not change on moving day.
Moving day greeted us with a couple of inches of snow. Despite the weather the movers (2 guys) were on time and in good spirits. We had originally planned on taking some items to our new place in our own car, but because of the snow that became a problem. I asked Matt if they could add the extra stuff and we quickly worked out a cost adjustment that was incredibly reasonable.
The move itself was extremely smooth. I’ve never had movers take so much care with my property. Everything was wrapped and protected and despite the weather everything made it safely and dry to our new place.
I hope that I don’t have to move again for a long time, but if I do, I will absolutely call Metropolis Moving. Best movers that I have every dealt with!
