Yes, i debated giving them only 4 stars, but that wouldn't be fair just because i had to get up early for several days (8:15 for them arriving at 8:30am) :) .It is now a couple months after the move. I prefer to wait to write so the dust can settle. We have several areas to look at - price, packing, loading, delivery and unpacking.Price: If all you've done are inter-state moves, prepare to be shocked on your first intra-state (same state) move. The opening estimates from three movers to move from FXBG to the Virginia Beach area were as much as i paid to move from Palm Bay, FL, to FXBG (Fredericksburg). Then their rep, a gentleman named Rich, came over to take an actual physical inventory. I provided same opportunity to the other two firms; one did not respond and the other kept being so confused that i couldn't tell if they were intentionally trying to deceive me or if the rep was just really confused.We went with J. Barber. Though their quote is firm (will not go up nor down depending on actual vs. estimated weight), i knew it was good from knowing where the other companies were coming in.Packing: Yes, they were there promptly at 8:30am... but they were polite, friendly, cleaned up after themselves, organized and efficient. I am sorry to say that with other movers that is not always the case!Loading: While i sat at my at-home desk, it all happened so fast it took me by surprise when they were done.Delivery: Glad my wife was at the destination, because they were done well before i even got there. My wife raved about how polite and kind they were and willing to accommodate getting the boxes to the correct rooms. My view was that other than a few errors probably due to language issues, they were spot on.Unpacking: As usual (We have moved seven times in the last 20 years), i am amazed at how much paper and how many boxes movers use to protect all of our belongings. We still have some cardboard to get rid of but everything arrived safe.In the end, i'd have to say 5 stars. Thank you folks at J. Barber for a MUCH better experience than five out of the six prior moves over the last couple decades!
We have used them twice for our house moving needs. Their drivers and crew are top notch and pay attention to all of your details.From the initial meeting and going over each specific item and any special considerations, to the delivery was the most painless process I have encountered yet.They understand these are your valuables and memories they are handling and they treat it as such.They bring the correct size crew and equipment based on the job and work extremely efficiently.We would never hesitate to use them again or recommend them to family and friends. Is it worth every single penny!Thank yall again!
If you are looking to move, this is the company for you!! Don’t waste your time looking around and getting other quotes. You can trust these movers are the best!! Beverly is so kind, caring, efficient, punctual and HONEST!!! She took great care of me from my first phone to the last. I changed my dates so many times and she never once got impatient or upset with me.The guys who moved my items were incredible. They took great care in loading and unloading my things. They always asked where I wanted things placed and if I changed my mind they were more than accommodating to move them around.Best pricing too!Thank you, JBarber Movers for making my move the easiest part of a new life!
I was completely pleased with J Barber. Moving is a hassle no matter how you cut it; however, J Barber made it as pleasant and smooth as possible. Beverly Denny, the Relocation Manager, was always responsive and answered all questions promptly. The movers themselves were extremely careful with the furniture. Each piece was wrapped individually and handled with care. They worked as hard a humanly possible! Definitely a five-star company.
Update 2022:We finally found a house in Richmond after 2 years searching and again reached out to J. Barber for the move. Same experience as before...not one box or piece of furniture was damaged. Every part was tracked and everything was placed perfectly, even when I changed my mind about rug and furniture placement. Even in 90+ degree temps, the crew was respectful and courteous. From booking to the actual move the whole staff maintained excellent communication. Once again, a FANTASTIC experience from start to finish!Original move 2020:We recently moved from one historic home with many antiques and over 6,000sqft to another home a mile away which was equally as large. The whole experience from start to finish with J. Barber was top notch! Kate was checking in and keeping me informed throughout, the gentleman doing the survey was respectful, the quote I received was fair and competitive, however, the best part was the actual move. It was well into the 90s and the team of 6 never once complained. Everything was moved and wrapped to perfection, furniture was disassembled and reassembled while keeping track of parts, floors and doors were protected, and they wouldn't let me move or lift a finger and wouldn't leave until they were sure everything was placed exactly as I wanted it. I will never use another moving company again...J. Barber is the best!
