Firemen Movers reviews (445)

You don't have to read many reviews about movers on this site to see some real horror stories, but I can tell you there is no horror dealing with Firemen Movers, from my first contact with them on the telephone to the empty truck driving away from my new home every step of the move was a pleasure. First off our inquiry started with leaving a voicemail for the company. Their outgoing message said that all staff were on a full day of training and they would make every effort to contact me that day. Within two hours I had a call back from one of the company owners, Doug Harper. We arranged for Doug to come out to the house to provide us with an estimate, on a Sunday morning. Doug was there on time which was surprising since he is an active fire captain in Etobicoke and had been up battling a motel fire the night before. He was very friendly and explained everything that Firemen Movers would do for us. We were impressed and coupled with the excellent reviews here on HomeStars we booked the move with him. Two days before moving day we had a call from the office confirming the move and providing us with an arrival window of 1/2 an hour. Moving day, the shiny red truck arrived on time with three young men on board; Curtis W, Chris T and Jamie. They all introduced themselves, then asked to see what would be involved in the move. Then they got to work and never stopped working the whole time they were with us. We have moved many times before and were used to movers disappearing regularly during the move for a smoke or some other break. Not with Curtis, Chris and Jamie. They wrapped all our furniture in plastic wrap and blankets and packed it carefully on the truck. Everything was secured with tie downs and I swear the truck could have tipped over and our furniture would not have moved. At the new house they carefully laid red runners everywhere and then started the unpacking process. Again they never stopped moving. Doug had estimated 7 1/2 hours for the move but Curtis, Chris and Jamie did it in 5. Nothing was scratched or broken. Doug warned that damage is inevitable but he was wrong. Moving is a stressful time, but Firemen Movers don't add to the stress, if anything they alleviate it. Great company and I do not hesitate to recommend them. You won't find better!!!

I was extremely pleased with the service, it is often scary and uncomfortable when using movers. So many stories of dishonesty, but Firmen Movers was recommended to me, and my friends were just as pleased as myself. I have since referred them to other friends. Great hard working young men.An excellent experience.

Trained firefighteres awaiting placement. Jesse D. & Jamie moved me from Toronto to Brampton on Aug. 28, 2012. Great packers - shrink wrapped all mirrors, dressers, etc. Assembled bedframe at destination - absolutely NO NICKS when transporting dressers - courteous, punctual & wouldn't let me lift a finger. Would use them again & recommend them to friends! Thanks guys! You were the best! Donna

Absolutely the best - very hardworking, well organized, friendly and extremely efficient. We moved in July 2010, and I just have not had a chance to say thank you to them earlier. The 3 strong guys came 15 minutes ahead of schedule, and on the way to our floor got a superintendent to put the building elevator on service. They carried our bins two or three at a time, and many of the bins were full with books and so heavy, that I could hardly move one by pushing it, not to mention by lifting it. When we arrived to our new house, and realized there was not enough free space for the truck, they went to our future neighbors and offered to rearrange their parked cars instead of waiting for us to figure it all out. They did not break or damage a single thing, all the furniture was carefully wrapped in plastic and blankets, including some old staff I would not bother to wrap myself. They refused to take any breaks, although it was more than 30 degrees outside. The whole process took no more than 3 or 4 hours. Given our previous experience with other companies we expected it to be at least twice as long, and prepared to carry quite a few odd boxes ourselves - well, they did not give us the opportunity.:) Thank you, Firemen Movers.

For everyone who has been through a moving nightmare, try Fireman Movers. Andrew B, Moses R and Ahmed S were ultra-efficient, very organized, respectful and personable. I really felt that my belongings were in safe hands through the entire move (all furniture is shrinkwrapped and then blanketed). They worked really quickly & efficiently to ensure that they didn't go over the estimated time, and when the move was done, they sat down with me to go through everything in detail. I highly recommend these guys

We had a difficult moving problem, but the 5 man team did a spectacular job. The arrived on time and new exactly what to do. They finished loading two trucks on time and finished in Orangeville ahead of schedule. The team were well trained and careful with our furniture. The house we moved into had a difficult entrance with stairs and sharp turns. They managed it all without damaging anything. On top of that they went the extra mile to make sure we didn't have to lift or carry the many extra boxes we had. It was "Can I carry that for you", or "I'll take that for you". Friendly, efficient and effective. You can't ask for more!! Highly recommended. I will use them again.

When we were looking for a moving company we came to homestars.com and the Firemen Movers came as the highest rated. On our moving day we found out why. When Chrissy, Kyle and Daniel (Dan), showed up they wasted no time at all evaluating the situation and getting down to work. They took every bit of care with all our furniture, Kyle is a wiz at taking apart and putting it back together. They had the truck pack in no time, and were off to the new house. Even thunder storms as the move was coming to an end did not dampen their attitudes. Everything was moved in and was kept dry and clean. We have and will continue to recommend the Firemen Movers to anyone who is moving. Again thank Chrissy, Kyle and Dan you all made our moving day run soo smooth. Kevin and Geoff

Excellent experience from beginning to end. Had three quotes but easy decision. Prompt response, no guessing with quote, and helpful in preparing for move. Showed up on time and started working immediately. Great team that were friendly, considerate, and interacted with our two kids. Worked efficenlty and finsihed job in 7 hours versus 8 hours quoted. Would use again and recommend strongly to anyone. THANK YOU FIREMEN MOVERS.

I would like to thank Firemen Movers for giving me a stress free day of moving. Cody, Jesse and Kyle were efficient, polite (except about the age remark that Jesse and Kyle should remember - lol) and I was amazed how quickly they were able to complete the task at hand. You could certainly see that the three of them had a great working relationship. Even when I was having second thoughts in regards to the placement of bedroom furniture they told me take a minute to decide and if I wanted to change the room around they would be happy to do it for me. Janice and Doug were great and made you know that you would have no problem on the day of the move. I have boasted about the Firemen Movers to numerous people over the last few days since my move. Thank you guys so much. It is about time this city has a moving company of this quality.
