  1. NJ Elite Movers are SCAMERS!!

    DO NOT USE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES!!

    I was quoted a move of $75 per hour, 3 men 1 truck. My items were being moved from a storage facility already wrapped and boxed. The "movers" or as I referred to them as the "takers" arrived one hour late. They did not call, I had to call to question where they were. When they arrive the movers looked like guys who had run out to get a cup of coffee, more than experienced movers. The quote quickly went from 3.5 hous of work to a 6 hour job that included over $300 worth of "moving materials". When I called their "customer service department" I was told that the quote was just that a "quote that was not legally binding.
    The worst part of it all is that you have to pay these "robbers" the money before they unload your items!! I was not told of all of the additional costs such as using an elevator (who has ever heard of that) and long distance walks(from the truck to the elevator) was an additional cost, separate from the labor charge of $75 per hour! This company is nothing more than a scam job that takes advantage of people during one of the most stressful time in your life.
    To be told that you can not get YOUR items until you pay is absolutely crazy.!! I refused to give them cash and made them wait until I went to the bank to get a certifed bank check. I intend to see what action can be taken against this company. They need to learn a lesson about bait and switch!!

  2. Do Not Use!! Worst Ever!!

    I was quoted $265 to use this company, they sent a confirmation email with everything included and it says "materials are additional"..which was fine. But, if your going to include that materials are additional in the email why on earth wouldn't you explain everything else that is additional? I explained to the girl that I had 1 flight of stairs..her response "ok-no problem". Yea, OK..$950 later!!

    To top it off, when you call the place whoever they have working there would never be hired by anyone in their right mind. They are the rudest, most unprofessional people that I have ever dealt with in MY LIFE. I couldn't even believe what I was hearing. I asked for 2 things- a copy of the contract (that the foreman wouldn't give me) and to speak to anyone else besides for the girl (Tara-I believe) I was dealing with. She refused to do either and laughed at me. Really? This is who you have representing your company?? I guess I can't be that surprised!

    They got the wrong person mad this time. I am going to that company with my lawyer and see to it that something happens.

  3. Liars And Theives.

    DO NOT USE!!THE WORST OF THE WORST!!They sent me a quote on a move and and the price winds up more then double what I was told.When I told them not to deliver the bedroom, because I didn't have all the money they kept my furniture.

    all for a bedroom that was being moved 1 block away.

  4. They are theives, do not use.

    These people are thieves. They quoted me $75/hr to move 4 items. I specifically asked them the night before if there was a minimum number of hours. They said no. When they got here they put all the stuff in their truck said there was a 5 hour minimum and got me for $575. Thats $400 over the quoted price tip.

    I spoke to a supervisor who blamed me for signing the contract without reading even though I told her the foreman rushed with it. These people are theives.

  5. Late but did a good job.

    I used NJ Elite this past weekend to move me about 3 miles away. I scheduled them for 8 am and they were late. One thing I appreciated it was their foreman called me and let me know he was going to be late, this allowed me to run some errands. When they did show up an hour later they went straight to work. The guys were very nice and knowledgeable. They didn't take any breaks, even when I offered them sandwiches. They got me to my new house in 5 hours which to me was fast. I have alot of heavy furniture and tons of boxes. I was most pleased that nothing was damaged or scratched. The bill was a little more than I expected but well worth it and a job well done.

  6. NJ ELITE MOVERS - Not as bad as they are made out to be!

    I am writing this review due to the fact that these negative reviews are giving a pretty honest and decent company a horribly tainted name. I had my move a few days ago, and I have to admit the overall outcome of the move was excellent. The quote they had given me was 75 dollars per hour, WHICH THEY DID HOLD TRUE TO! As opposed to the four hundred and fifty dollars I expected, it did come to about six hundred. But, this is understandable. It wasn't an EXACT estimate. The movers were early to the move, very nice and professional, and did not ask for a penny when the tipping time arrived. Even when I offered them money, they refused!
    What I am trying to say is this: whether or not these negative reviews are true (they are probably being written by another moving company to boost their own business) the company is an honest and true company. I would move with them again if I had to.

  7. Bait and switch tactics.

    This is a very dishonest business. They "bait" you with a quote of a flat hourly rate. Then they do the "switch" when they arrive "late" and saying by the way there is a "5 hour minimum" (my move took 2 hrs) and other outrageous charges. Then when you point out the fact their quote, and email confirmation, did not say anything about a minimum and other charges, they hold your belongings hostage. Threaten to steal them and charge a storage fee. People like this are the reason why moving is one of the top stresses in life.

  8. Scammers.

    All -
    This got into the media today.

    http://www.usatoday.com/news/nation/2011-07-25-moving-company-scams_n.htm

    If you got scammed by this company like me, please

    1. Send a letter to BBB

    2. Report to NJ
    http://www.nj.gov/oag/ca/ocp/moverscmplt.pdf

    3. Send a letter to Garfield Mayor/ Senate

    4. Report to IRS
    http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f3949a.pdf

    These folks should be in jail for ever.

  9. Never Showed Up!!

    DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!! I made that mistake ..

    Looking to find a reputable and reasonable moving company to help us move our furniture and belongings from Princeton, NJ to Cherry Hill, NJ, I came across the Billy.com website. Never having done anything like this before, I input my information and shortly thereafter was contacted by three moving companies. Each gave me a quote on a per hour basis, and NJ Elite Movers came out with the best price. I confirmed the use of their services and received a confirmation email on July 13, confirming our move for Saturday, July 23rd at 11 AM. Additionally, on Friday, July 22nd, I received a phone call and again verbally confirmed the next day's move.

    On Saturday, July 23rd about a quarter after 11 AM, when no movers had showed up, I placed a call to the office. I gave them my name and wanted to learn the status of the movers. I was placed on hold for an unreasonable amount of time. I hung up and called back a few minutes later. This time around I was speaking with a "supervisor". She had informed me that someone had called earlier that morning and rescheduled our move to Sunday, July 24th. As shock was setting in, I explained that neither myself or my fianc.

  10. Focus on services than writing review.

    This movers are good for stealing your money, damaging your furniture and. Stealing your stuff.
    They will take your stuff and will demand at least 5 to 6 times than the initial quote.
    They write their own good reviews instead of focusing on their services.

    People who have some bad experience, please check back in couple of days. I'll not stop till we all get justice.

  11. Very Bad Experience.

    I had an horrible experience with this movers.
    The initial estimate was 65$/hour.

    They showed up at 9.30 AM though I was schedule at 11 AM. The foreman said he was informed that my move was at 9 AM.
    Foreman said they will come back after 10 AM, They started at 10.15 AM for the move.

    The bad part on my side is I signed in the papers which the foreman ran through quickly, which was highlighted about the hourly rate and insurance.

    After loading my items in the Truck, and making those items as hostage they demanded me with the estimate of 1580$. The Move started at 10.15 AM and ended at 2.45 PM, Hardly 5 Hrs. Based on the service provided ( 5 * 65 = 325$).

    They charged me for packing material. They didn't even said they are going to use their materials. I was not given/communicated for any price point for these items as well. I had all my item well packed including my furnitures (covers for mattress, sofa) and provided my tapes, bubble wrap.
    They used their material for the sake of using materials, just to charge me.

    All this time, I was trying to reach any one from the company, but no one responded. When I called from different number, they even disconnected the phone, in the mid of the conversation.

    I was even charged for the time ( 2 hours), that it will take them to go back to their headquarters. I was initially told that they are from my local town Edison, NJ.

    in short, A 300$ move ended up in 1200$.

    On top of this, Foreman didn't gave me the receipt, When I asked for it, he wrote it as a flat rate. It was never discussed as flat rate at any point of time of this move. The foreman attitude was very bad, he intendionally hit my enterance door everytime he got some stuff inside my new home.
    They have broken lot of stuff and my home door as well.

    Whatever you do, DO NOT GO WITH THIS MOVERS.

    I am not sure what else I can do other than writing this review. This thing should be definetly stopped, so others are not going through this.

  12. Class action suit and reporting them to IRS.

The IRS is always interested in cash only companies, So start by filling out that form. I have lawyers on standby ready to take this company to court!! Please Send me all your contact information Plus a brief description of how they did you wrong. I WILL NOT LET THIS REST UNTIL JUSTICE IS SERVED!!

    Thank you,
    Mike


    My story short

    I have a 1 bedroom, lady quoted me on the phone $250.00 I only had furniture they moved, it took them 2 hours to move out, and 2 hours to unload (maybe less) they charged me over $1700.00 cash only and refused to take my stuff off the truck. and they broke my bed set too!!

  13. Worst Moving Company Ever!! Big Scammers!!

    Do not believe ANY of the postitive reviews that you see online. I'm sure the staff at this company gets paid to write those positive reviews.

    By far this moving day was one of the worst days of my LIFE!! My boyfriend and are both students so of course we were looking for the best deal available. Boy were we WRONG! They quoted us at $285.00 to move our small studio from NYC into Brooklyn. The movers arrived at 7PM. They were scheduled to be at our building at NOON. We called their office multiple times and got hung up on, on several attempts. After waiting and waiting we decided to do the move on our own but all the uhauls all over the city were already rented. So kept calling. Finally the secretary said they were on their way and they showed up at 7PM.

    They showed up in a RENTED truck (not their own company truck) they were not wearing any type of company logo or uniform & the contract that they make you sign had no letterhead on it. We were skeptical, but felt forced to sign since our stuff was on the street and it was already 7PM at night! It took them less than 2 hours to load everything up! Little did we know that the paper we signed said that they charged for EVERY FOOT THAT THEY WALK! EVERY ROLL OF TAPE!! $75/HOUR/GUY of labor. They make you pay them BEFORE the move it completed..;once all of your belongings are already in the truck! The amount came to $1200!!

    We did not have that kind of money. I started Crying! They refused to give you back your furniture unless you pay them IN CASH! Otherwise, they take all of your stuff with them to some "STORAGE" which i'm sure does not even exist!

    The 2 mexican guys that work for the "foreman" only get like $11/hr & they pretty much do all of the work. It would be cheaper to rent the truck and hire those two guys (give them $100 bucks each!!) The foreman & his "boss" keep the rest!

    Moral of the story..DONT SIGN ANYTHING UNLESS YOU READ IT ALL!! DO NOT GO WITH THE CHEAPEST QUOTE EITHER!!

    DO NOT BELIEVE ANY OF THE REVIEWS ON HERE!! THEY ARE SCAMMERS!!

    On top of everything..they also broke several of my pictures & lost one of my mirrors!

  14. Frauds And Scammers!!

    I was quoted $70 an hour for my move about 10 miles away from my old place to new place and was told there will be no charges for stairs when I specifically asked because I was coming out of a second floor and going to a third floor. My appointment was cancelled and had to reschedule and guys still arrived two hours late and said it will be $75 an hour, a $250 cancellation fee, and charges for materials which included blankets and tape. They hide the sheet they were carrying with prices, wrapped all my stuff and demanded $1719 in cash or money order at new location or they would take my belongings to their warehouse and charge $350 for redelivery. Charged me hour and half of travel time back when the reservation lady (Tina) said they were local in same town as me. 8 hour of labor, $475 of stairs that was supposed to be included per Tina, and $605 for packing materials. They claimed to use so much tape, blankets, and cut open boxed to safeguard the furniture with glass including $250 for cradling a glass dining table top. None of this was mentioned to me and was only told of tape and blankets in addition to the hours. I was forced to pay them $1500 in cash after hours of arguments and phone calls. After receiving $1500 in cash, I was not given a receipt of the breakdown or that I paid $1500 in cash, they left my furniture on the ground which my neighbors helped me bring up, and did not wait for the police to arrive for a report. Searching online, they have done so many scams with so many people recently and basically robbing people for their own goods. This needs to stop. My sofas were damaged and also fine Chinaware which the guy refused to put down so that I can make a claim for it.

    Many scams done per these sites:

  15. Guys Were Great.

    These guys were great. Took all the big stuff and didn't scratch or break anything. I was really impressed with how quick and careful they were. The guys were friendly and polite but most importantly they were extremely professional. I can tell they knew what they were doing. They wrapped and protected all of my furniture. The guys were on time and took zero breaks. I highly recommend NJ Elite Movers. I had everything packed up for the movers. And I purchased my own materials for the movers. I had no hidden fees on my move. They did a great job.
