Questions for this shipment: 

Question: Hi, we can do your move in Brooklyn, on June 1-st (morning hours), we will professionally pack all you furniture with moving blankets, load your shipment to our moving truck, deliver to the new apartment, unload, unpack, re-assemble everything, what we disassemble on a pickup. Licensed, Insured. Looking forward for your feedback. References available upon request. Our price is FINAL and includes everything described. NO HIDDEN COSTS. NO SURPRISES. Is that OK with you ? You moving from the 3-rd floor walkup to the 4-th floor walkup, is that correct ?Please let us know if you would like to reserve the truck or have any additional questions. We will move your furniture on a 24' ft truck, can you describe parking conditions on pick up and delivery locations. Thanks, 1stMoving (5/19/2009)
Response: Hi, On the description page for your company you mention a Flat Price option, how can I get this? Im more comfortable knowing exactly what Ill be charged ahead of time as Im working with a very limited budget. Also there will be nothing to disassemble and reassemle at either location only wrapping 2-3 items in moving blankets and heavy lifting. I plan to box almost everyhting myself and move alot of it to the ground floor ahead of time. Parking at the pickup is hit or miss, Ive seen most people just double park unless there is a large enough opening for the truck by the hydrant in front of the building. The new location is on such a quiet street that double parking should not be a problem. Let me know what you think, Ill be avail this weekend if someone could come by for a real no surprises estimate? Thanks (5/19/2009)
Response: Thanks for response, what is you budget for this move ? Thanks, Vlad 1stMoving (5/19/2009)
Response: I wanted to stay at 375ish knowing that tipping each guy 50 would bring me to 525. Is that crazy? Im just moving 2 neighborhoods over. What I listed in my ad is very accurate to whats truly in my apt. Again I will do almost all packing myself as its all clothes books and a few kitchen items. I was planning to move the light boxes to the first floor on my own before anyone got there. I really just need the guys to wrap a few items in blankets and move the large items for me. (5/19/2009)
Response: Thanks for being honest, the best I can do is FLAT $ 500 , tipping is optional (100 is enough for 3 guys). The only problem is, you have to stay by the truck while we loading, unloading and try to avoid parking ticket ($115). if we get one it's either on you or we have to share it. Thanks, Vlad, 1stMoving. Also, if you go with us, we will prefer to start 8 am or even early. (5/19/2009)
Response: Vlad, I want to think about it. even though Ive gotten lower Bids the comments on their pages havent been as good as yours so I get the Value in paying more, its just more than I had anticipated/can afford and really need to decide if I can come up with the cash. I will definitely let you know soon, pls do not withdraw your offer. Thanks for understanding. (5/19/2009)
Response: Thanks, I will be on your job personally and can promise you top service for a very competitive rate. Have a Good afternoon. Vlad, 1stMoving (5/19/2009)
Response: Hi Vlad, So Im just about ready to accept. 500 Flat rate? I will pack as much as possible myself. Heavy lifting is on you. Also I am wondering if you'll have those blankets available to wrap my tv and mirror in as well as a nice cabinet with glass? Also if I have something odd like a lamp would you have a few extra boxes with you the day of the move for any last minute items I dont have a box for? Let me know Id like to finalize this before the weekend if possible. Thanks, John (5/21/2009)
Response: Hi John, yes we always have moving blankets on a truck, and yes if you need x-tra boxes we can provide them as well. Just try to make your decision faster, because the schedule filling up really fast ( everybody try to move on 31 or 1). Please, let me know if you want to reserve truck and time. Thanks, Vlad, 1stMoving (5/21/2009)
Response: Ok Im in, so how does this work now?? (5/21/2009)
Response: You have to accept our bid and right after that I will e-mail you our moving agreement with all info. Thanks, Vlad (5/21/2009)
Response: OK, so even though the bid is in an hourly rate the agreement you send will be wht we discussed? Also the deposit reqiured that goes toward the 500? Sorry to be so dense about this, Im just nervous about anything online. -john (5/21/2009)
Response: John, don't worry, you have to give deposit to Uship and we will deduct it from your total. Everything will be as I promise. Also , after you accept our bid Uship will provide you with all our info. That's their rules. Thanks, Vlad, 1stMoving (5/21/2009)
