Angel Movers & Storage Ltd

My rating for Angel Movers & Storage is based on my experience hiring various professional movers for the 9 moves I've made over the past 15 years; 2 cross-country and 7 within cities. My latest move is the third time in a row hiring Angel Movers because I've been so impressed with them (I've not done that before with any other company).

I prefix the following with background information: my latest move was from Ontario to Quebec and was done in 2 parts: First part was to load my belongings from my home and then off-load to a storage facility. A direct move was not possible as I needed time to house-hunt in Quebec; Part Two, two months later, was to load my belongings from the storage room in Toronto, then drive and off-load to my new home in Quebec - the month happened to be January 2017! Needless to say, there was no snow in Toronto; later that day when arriving in Quebec they were greeted with lots of snow and ice! :O

Angel Movers are simply the best and here is why:

1) Anna, the Administrative Customer Care Associate – I contacted Angel Movers in October 2016. From the moment of initial contact, Anna was a joy to work with. She is the most organized and caring individual – a true “McGyver” in coming up with solutions to any logistical challenge. Always flexible, she provides you with several options in an efficient and timely manner. You are always “in the loop” with her; she is 2 steps ahead of you and often before you even know that you needed to know - LOL! A real Gem on Angel’s Team.
2) Johan, Owner of Angel Movers – having several years of experience growing up in the family business, Johan is a wealth of information and has encountered every possible situation. He actually accompanied his moving Team to Quebec on this move, and that impressed me greatly. He ensures you understand the process and truly listens to what you have to say. His quotation was very prompt and what I consider to be extremely reasonable, even with the additional expenses involved in moving long distance with his Team.
3) Excellent Moving Team - A big thank you to Robert, Darren and Joe for the wonderful job they did. When employees are happy with what they do, it shows – you can tell in how they talk about Johan – they noted that Johan is a wonderful person to work for and makes every move a joy with his great sense of humour. I know they all had me laughing many times – it was obvious they work really well together. :)
4) Highly Efficient - They are so fast! What took another firm (the slowest I’ve ever seen!) 8 hours for 1 move, took Angel only 8 hours to load and off-load for what amounted to 2 moves (not including driving time, but includes dis-assembling and re-assembling furniture that required it). Nothing broken or damaged, everything arrived as I packed it, everything works. I take some responsibility as well in being very prepared, packing everything in boxes very well (when you pick up a box and shake it, you shouldn’t be able to hear anything make a sound - everything needs to be well wrapped).
5) You are treated with respect – Your belongings are treated with great care. I chose to have my furniture wrapped where required, given the distance it had to travel, and the Team used large, thick blankets to do so. In addition, flooring is covered for protection, large pictures are placed in special boxes, large items are bagged, loose glass from table tops, etc., are well-wrapped in blankets; everything loose is packed up so the pieces don’t get lost. The Team moves gently, not abruptly, so nothing is destroyed by getting knocked over or dented, for example.

To sum up, there is no drama with Angel Movers; they are an extremely professional Team in their presentation as well as their personal manner; they work with a sense of humour and seem to truly enjoy what they do. Moving day becomes fun again, and not the stress-filled time I knew previously. I wholeheartedly provide this review with the highest recommendation possible. Thank you.
