This was by far the smoothest, easiest move I have ever experienced. The crew was professional, lighthearted and friendly. They carried all my things with care, and I could tell that it was more than a job for them - they also made sure I was secure with the move and not stressing, making jokes and conversation. 10/10 would recommend and hire for future moves - thank you again!
Thank you so much for your feedback! It was our pleasure servicing your move!
They did a really good job and I am so happy I hired them. I moved out from home a few years back and this was my first time needing to hire a company so it was super cool they walked me through the whole process and stayed in contact every step of the way. I thought the experience would be way more nerve wracking but these guys were super nice the whole way through and made me feel secure in my decision to trust them. Wonderful team here!

Empire did a wonderful job with my move, really. I have no complaints and everything was straight forward and simple with this team of pros. They came along and picked up three bedrooms worth of belongings and made sure everything was fastened in a way that it wouldn't come loose or become damage during transit. On the back end they did a fast job of getting everything into the new place and made sure they didn't forget anything by doing a triple check through the check and house to make sure I had all my things. They were great!
Awesome team that really knows how to handle business and they handled it extremely quickly. The gentleman on the phone gave me a direct quote and that quote never changed all the way through which I can appreciate. There was no funny business involved in the gathering moving and dropping off of all of my belongings. When they unloaded the truck at the destination they helped with some assembly which was very convenient for me. They did a wonderful job start to finish.
I can't give enough stars here. I typically never leave reviews but these guys really made me feel comfortable and welcomed. The gentleman on the phone double checked everything to make sure I had a truck coming that could fit all of my things and the drivers stayed in contact with me through the process so that I wasn't left hanging. It's always concerning to see your life drive off into the distance under the care of strangers but these guys really know how to alleviate any concerns you may have!
Empire Moving really helped eliminate the stress I was dealing with when preparing for my move. I got so many calls from different moving companies and the person I spoke with at Empire was the most kind at explaining the details of the move so I understood the process. They gave me a very reasonable price for the move and the movers were absolutely wonderful when they got to my home. My items were delivered quickly and I was overall very satisfied with my experience with them. Definitely recommend!
They did a stellar job. I had a 5 bedroom house I was moving over to a new spot in Lake Mary Florida and Empire Moving Group is what made this whole ordeal possible for me. Other companies were too much or too long and these guys made it happen exactly how I needed it. 5 stars for them!
5 stars and two thumbs up to this team of professional servicers and movers. The phone representatives were extremely helpful and nice and did a wonderful job of treating all of my needs. The movers were excellent as well and made sure that everything was done correctly.
I booked with this moving company, come to find out later they are not a moving company, they are a moving broker. I was told when initially booking they could move my items in 2-3 days from Illinois to Florida. Later, when trying to reschedule my moving date, come to find out they are only a broker, and they can only deliver in 2-14 days that they need to find a moving company to deliver my items. If I need my items in 2-3 days now I would need to pay an additional $2000 for expedited delivery.
I was completely misled when paying for my deposit, they were extremely friendly when booking and after when an issue arises they pass you along, or ask for you to hold and never pick back up. This moving broker company is so unprofessional do not book with them, make sure you book with a moving company that is actually going to pick up your items and drive straight to the destination, not pick up, drop off at warehouse, then re-pick up and deliver in 2-14 days. So unprofessional and unacceptable.
Two words: BUYER BEWARE! We are a retired military family and have used numerous movers over the last 25 years and these guys are by far the WORST moving company we have ever used. They lied to us almost the entire time! They contract the work out so that they have NO accountability for their actions. Let me tell you our story: It started with Kyle trying to figure out how many cubic feet we would need. He quoted us very low, which I knew was not correct because I had a couple other companies give us quotes using pictures of our for sale listing of the house. They do this so that the price initially seems low, but then on drop off they can say, "No, you had more cubic feet so now you owe us more." Luckily, I had him raise the cubic feet so we didn’t get screwed on the end.
Next, came the pick up fiasco. We had a two day window, which is fine, but makes it hard to schedule cleaners and such. They couldn’t come the first day as they originally said, but said they would be there on the second day at 8:00am. That was fine, the cleaners were coming at noon so we thought it would work out. We hear nothing in the morning and I call at 8:00am asking where they are. Oh, they won’t be there until 12:00pm. So luckily the cleaners were flexible and could come right away and clean the house. But, we had to move all of the furniture and boxes into the garage so that they could clean. We were paying them to move our stuff and we ended up having to move it all into the garage. Very frustrating! Next thing you know, no movers at 12:00. So, WE have to call. "Oh, they will be there at 2:00," and then "oh, they will be there at 4:00," and then for sure 5:00 at the latest.
Just excuse after excuse as to why the time kept changing…lies! They finally showed up around 6:00 with one guy! One! It was freezing and the guy was wrapping and loading from the garage. He had no gloves so he had to take many breaks to warm up. It took forever! Now for the worst part, the drop-off. We requested drop off and were told that it would be there next week. We were so excited! The dispatch lady didn’t even ask for our drop off address, lol, so we knew they were lying. Next thing you know the day before they were supposed to drop off they said oh sorry it won’t be there until next week. This literally went on for 6 weeks! SIX WEEKS it took to get our stuff! Six weeks of being told it would be there on Monday, then oh no, it will be there on Wednesday, and then oh no, it will be there on Saturday.
Six weeks of scheduling time with work to be there when they said they would. Six weeks of not being able to travel for work when it was required, six weeks of sleeping on an air mattress. Six weeks of eating out. Six weeks of them saying it was at this location or that location. And then the next conversation it would change, oh, no, it was at this location. Six weeks of being lied to! Six weeks of stress. I was getting frustrated with the dispatch lady and reached out to Kyle. Because Kyle told me he would be there for us through the whole thing. He had no idea what was initially going on and made no moves whatsoever to find out.
At week four I was very upset when speaking with the dispatch lady because it was obvious, she was lying to us. She very rudely told me they legally had one month to get us our stuff. I just had to laugh because we were at week five. I wanted to threaten legal action with her at that time, but honestly was afraid she would delay our stuff longer. So, I called Kyle to see if he could help, maybe just find out what was really going on, or where they really were because it was very obvious, we were getting the run around. He said, "Yep, we legally have one month to get your stuff to you." I said, it’s been 5 weeks! Do you know the response I got? Silence. Absolute silence! What could he say? So, I said maybe it’s time to get a lawyer because they were so kind in telling me the laws.
Next thing you know, our stuff is delivered the next week. Oh, and customer service is a joke! Very rude and NOT helpful. Most of the time they never even called back. Do NOT hire this company. Because they contract this stuff out, they have no idea what’s going on and take no responsibility for any of it. Stay far away. Don’t say you haven’t been warned!
Big move for the business I had near Detroit, to Chicago. They had made everything very simple and easy for me and I just did not trust my people to move things safely or carefully. They did a fantastic job and made sure nothing would be broken upon arrival.
