Bohrens Moving and Storage

Very sketchy company. I had arranged for them to come give me an estimate on moving a 1 bedroom apartment and 2 storage units next to each other from Langhorne PA to Stroudsburg PA. I never once said NJ. I took time off work to meet with them, they inventoried my apartment, followed me to my storage units and inventoried them. He said I would get the estimate that day. About ½ hour later I received an email that they cannot do it because they cannot do intra state moves. They knew all along that the move was entirely in PA. I believe they were just checking to see if they could do the job with minimal risk of getting caught doing work in PA, when they saw that they were not, back pedaled and said they cannot do it. Thank you very much for wasting my time!!!

I have had Bohren’s move me twice now. The first time, I was working exclusively with the Robbinsville office. They were great — fast, responsible, efficient. No complaints, even hefting my tons of stuff up to my 3^rd-​floor walk-​up!
The second time, I had them both pack and move me. I needed an extremely last-​minute move, so to accommodate my schedule needs, I had the Robbinsville office pack for me and the Parsippany office move me. Both crews were fantastic. Can’t say enough good things about them. I was incredibly stressed and frazzled due to complicated lease negotiations, but everyone with Bohren’s was patient, professional, and efficient.
I’m sharing this on the Unilocal for both Parsippany and Robbinsville, since I worked through both offices and had great service from both of them.
After a REALLY BAD experience with a certain state-​focused local moving company, working with Bohren’s was a huge relief and I would recommend them without reservations!

I had the worst moving experience of my life. Having hired moving companies many other times I can tell that what I had experienced with them, I can assure that I will never use them again even if it was free of charge. I was scammed big time when in June of 2014, the drive simply refused to drive down the town road that enters my property saying that his truck «would not fit». I mean two months prior I had the same size truck and a a 16ft PACK-​Rat storage drove down the same road with no problem. Then they took my stuff into their storage unit and I had to pay over $ 500 a month for 12 months plus all the add’l charges for delivering and unpacking then packing again until I finally had my place ready 1 year later. TOATL SCAMMERS. During delivery movers broke a chair and I had a lot of items in some of the boxes broken. They are a true nightmare.

Be careful when choosing this moving company and also be prepared to sign a waiver if they scrape your walls going up and down the stairs. The company will hold your furniture «hostage» until you sign a waiver claiming they are not responsible for the damage. The excuse that will be used is that the stairs are «risky». Of course, they are too lazy to hang anything on the walls to prevent scraping. Company accused me of trying to «extort» money from them, after requesting $ 85 to paint numerous walls and to purchase supplies. Also, the ramshackle moving truck that was sent was broken down, during the move had to stop at a gas station, after the move, had to drive movers to get oil for the broken down truck, was not reimbursed.

Bohren’s is a horrible business that does not honor their contracts. They delayed our order beyond the «last» date of delivery in the contract because they had a larger order come up last minute. Our contract promised 9 wardrobe cartons and they only sent 1 so the movers threw all my neatly hung up clothes haphazardly into regular boxes. These boxes were not sealed correctly and arrived opened and with clothing missing. All clothing was wrinkled and dirty. A dresser was broken into many pieces as a result of not being secured (movers showed me how it looked in the truck). A lamp was missing. Our boxes looked like someone took a bat to them. There were huge holes in them and they were crushed way above and beyond normal moving wear and tear. If you are looking for a mover, use Steven’s International in the same general area. They moved me a few years ago and there were no problems at all. I wish I used them again this time. Al, the salesperson who seemed so congenial when making the sale, has not returned my 15 phone calls
