Nine years ago we used Brownstone Brothers for a "small" move of some of our belongings from one apartment to another four blocks away in Manhattan. Now, when we had a much more complicated move to accomplish, I remembered that they had been efficient and pleasant so decided to try them again. I am an Army brat and have moved countless times in my life, including in my adult life: once I moved five times in ten years. Moving is a hell that everyone dreads. This particular move was going to be especially difficult: combining belongings from four different locations (storage and city apartment) onto one truck and moving it all to a country location. Even the destination was difficult: two structures, a house and a converted barn twenty yards apart with deep snow in between. And finally, I had to do it alone: my husband had to be out of town for work and couldn't help. Brownstone Brothers was amazing. Halona, in the office, calm and courteous, helped me figure out how to make the move work. On moving day, the five men arrived right on time. They were simply marvelous! Cesar, the foreman, was efficient, a tremendous leader of his team, extremely well organized, and above all, patient, even kind, to me as he made sure every box was labeled for contents and for the specific room at the destination. The whole crew was wonderful: five extremely pleasant men who worked together with the efficiency of a machine. Cesar personally labeled at least fifty boxes from my dictation with his clear handwriting. Somehow they got the things in the apartment packed, moved furniture and boxes from three jammed storage units in different locations, and all into the truck in less than eight hours. I was astonished. I hadn't believed it could be done in one day. The following day they arrived on time at the destination and here we worked closely together to make sure that every object and box went to the correct location. Again, Cesar worked closely with me to make sure every label was accurately read and properly dispatched, while also working with his men to carry countless boxes himself. I got to know the whole crew better: Josh, good humored, using his tall height to carefully wrestle the biggest boxes to where they had to go; Mike, who worked on the truck at lightning speed grouping objects for the others to carry away; another man named Mike, whose charm and easy-going smile made the hard work seem easy; Nurudeen, quietly efficient. And from the previous day, Maurice, who helped sort and move scores of boxes out of storage. I hope I haven't forgotten anyone: they all deserve mention. This is a group of men who have worked together for years. They trust and like one another, are able to work at remarkable speed without dropping or breaking a thing, all with the best possible good-natured attitude. Finally, at the conclusion, the price was exactly as had been estimated by Halona. Moving is hell, everyone agrees. But when this move was over, I was truly sorry to say goodbye to these wonderful men. Thank you to Cesar and to his whole team for turning a dreaded task into a pleasure. I cannot recommend them too highly.

We contacted Brownstone Bros. for our recent move upstate. We had such a good experience with them 20+ years ago, we figured why not give them another go round. Sarah provided an onsite assessment and a cost we could work with. The fellas, Josh, Sean and Kevin arrived on time and finished the job all in one day, moving us to the Catskills without a hitch. Great friendly crew, got the job done in one fell swoop. Thank you Brownstone Bros.

I'm a professional organizer and recently had the opportunity to work with Brownstone Brothers and it was an awesome experience. I have worked with several moving companies in the past and none of them has been as organized as Brownstone. It made my job so much easier that the movers were mindful while packing and labeling each of the boxes. This cut down my team's unpacking time and ultimately saved the client money in the long run. Their overall organized process would be especially helpful for anyone working with these movers who is unpacking themselves. I would highly recommend working with Brownstone Brothers.

I had the opportunity to use Brownstone Brothers for a furniture move of some stuff from my apartment that I need to be put into storage to make space for a baby. It wasn't what I would call a "big" move, but we got to experience their really unique service and I'm excited to use them for our upcoming "big" move. What I did get to see firsthand was that they really do an accurate job of pricing out an estimate, and making us feel comfortable with our options. They helped us navigate what we needed to let our Co-op building know before we took out the Furniture to be replaced with the new stuff we were getting. On the day of the move, their team was excellent. They laid the planks down and even wrapped cushioning around the glass-table which definitely made me feel better! Their team worked fast and it was a relief to pretty much be done within an hour! (Again, we weren't moving a ton of stuff out - just some bigger pieces that we were clearing out). I was thrilled with the experience, and I'm actually excited to use them again to get the stuff out of storage and the overall apartment move. Thank you Brownstone Brothers! You have our business as long as we're in NYC!

Brownstone was highly recommended to us by a friend, and we're so glad she did! Everyone on the crew was skilled and confident. It was comforting to see how swiftly and painlessly the entire process went. They were on-time, friendly, and just knew their stuff. The foreman Maurice was really impressive. They took incredibly good care of everything (we have LOTS of breakables and a baby grand), and there was absolutely no damage from pick-up to drop-off. I would absolutely use Brownstone Brothers again and am already referring them to others.

I hired Brownstone Brothers last month to move my grandmother from her very large, very full Upper West Side apartment to her newly-remodeled home in Connecticut. I was anxious about the move for months, because my grandmother is very, very particular, and has a lot of expensive, delicate art pieces. That is, I was anxious until I called Brownstone. From the very beginning, this company was so helpful and kind. The people at the office, the estimator, the movers, everyone not only treated me and my grandmother with so much patience and respect, they even listened to me when I broke down over a negligent contractor. The crew was really the greatest, and a month later we've finally unpacked everything and I can't believe nothing was broken.

Straightforward, honest, and easy to work with. Sarah came by before our move, assessed our belongings, and gave us not only an estimate, but a play-by-play of how our move would go. On moving day, the truck and movers arrived exactly on time. There were some complications with our new building when we discovered they hadn't reserved the elevator for us at the right time, but the foreman was quick on his feet and just changed the plan to accommodate it, no complaint, nothing! At the end of the day, the move took 2 hours longer than expected because of the building's slip-up but Brownstone didn't charge us ANYTHING extra! They stuck with the original quote, because that's how they do business. I recommend them for any and all moves!
