I have used Intense Movers twice for moves within Brooklyn and Queens and have had great experiences both times. They are very transparent with their costs. I had several fragile items that increased my costs but I knew from using them before that I could trust them to get things done smoothly without any lost items or damages so I didn't hesitate to book with them again. My three movers were great and got my 1 bedroom apartment loaded and unloaded in about an hour each leaving me the rest of the day to get settled. Santos was in touch the evening before to check in and the morning of to make sure things went smoothly. I highly recommend them for your next move!

I found out about intense movers from quick google search, and also read up on Reddit about them. Nothing but good things were said.
Shot them a quick email with a very basic list of things that had to be moved along with few things that had to be disassembled like tv wall mounts and bed frames. I usually hate emailing companies for quotes as there tends to always be a delay in response. But intense movers were “intense” with the speed of their response times. Sometimes within minutes! On reviews I did read that their pricing was extremely good and it almost felt like one of those “too good to be true” moments. Shoutout first of all to the office team for their professional responses and turnaround times and their accuracy.
I did end up having to send back edited list of items as we couldn’t really figure out what were throwing away and taking with us but each and every single time, they were extremely nice and professional and sent us back updated estimates. We ended up hiring them for both packing (the day before the move) and the moving itself.
We’ve had santos for 2 days. 1st day he came with someone else for the packing portion. Second day was the move day and he also showed up.
Santos, Jay, and Kojo were the movers today and I don’t even know the word to describe how excellent they were. They were really friendly, courteous and helped us with basically EVERYTHING. They made sure everything was boxes, wrapped and transported safely, and moved to our new place. They did not leave until they triple checked with us that everything is where they should be. I mean I just don’t know if I could have asked for a better experience. Moving for us was a lot of stress and we instantly felt so much at ease knowing that they were the ones helping us.
I’d recommend intense movers and santos if he’s available to anyone and everyone. They deserve more than 5 stars Google allows us to give.

I’ve used Intense Movers for all of my moves in New York and, up until recently, I was always very satisfied with their professionalism and care. Unfortunately, my most recent experience was extremely disappointing.
The crew didn’t bring enough furniture blankets, which left several of my furniture pieces scratched and chipped. Even worse, because much of the furniture was left uncovered, one mover’s heavy sweating left all of my dining chairs and desk chair with large yellow stains and an odor that I haven’t been able to remove.
When I raised these issues, Intense Movers told me they would reimburse me for the damages if I sent photos. I did so promptly, but after that they stopped responding. I followed up multiple times and was ignored.
What makes this so frustrating is that I was a loyal repeat customer who trusted them to treat my belongings with care. Instead, I was left with damaged furniture and no accountability. Sadly, I can no longer recommend this company.

I had such a seamless and wonderful experience with this team. Communication was easy and they were very clear on expectations. Their quote was the most reasonable out of other companies.
Thank you Flanagan and Antonio!

I’ve used these guys over five times for moves and every single time they’ve been amazing. From getting a quote to the end of the moving process replies are quick and everyone that works there is so nice. 10/10 recommend using intense movers

Intense movers made my move so smooth and stress-free! They were very responsive over email when I first reached out and gave a very competitive flat-rate quote. When the actual movers came, Frankie and Antonio, they handled all of our furniture and delicate items with care and made sure everything was padded and quadruple-wrapped in plastic. Their motto was to handle our furniture as if it was their own which is rare in the moving business. I would highly highly highly recommend Intense Movers to anyone moving within NYC, they will not let you down.

Intense Movers is hands-down the best moving company in NYC.
I’ve worked with them five times since summer 2014, and I doubt I’ll ever hire another moving company as long as I live here. Even though I love them, I’m still thorough — I always do my research and collect estimates — and yet, year after year, they continue to offer the most competitive prices.
This company is detailed, communicative, and reliable. The guys show up on time and are always SO NICE. It honestly feels like buddies are coming over to help.
Just this week, we hired them to move several items within the same home, including a piano. Moving a piano is a whole thing, and they handled it with so much thought and care. They took time to strategize, choreographing their steps like a dance — a dance around tight corners and down 17 brownstone stairs. And they nailed it.
I’m so grateful to these guys and can’t recommend them enough.

This was our third time around working with Intense Movers and we cannot recommend them highly enough. The team asks deeply detailed questions and prepares thoroughly in advance to ensure they know exactly how to make the process go smoothly on the day of. We hired Intense Movers to help us do some of the packing this time as well, and they did not disappoint, ensuring everything from unwieldy art to heavy pots and pans got packaged and squared away safely. The team was patient with us when we were far from ready at the start of the moving day, and then when complications forced us to stay in our original destination far longer than planned, the movers safely delivered and unpacked our belongings at our new apartment building without us even being present. The pricing is clear and transparent, and well worth the investment in protecting your belongings from damage, your bodies from injury, and your blood pressure from spiking!

I’ve moved three times with Intense and it’s been great every time. Communicative, efficient, and fairly priced. I renegotiated my lease start date to ensure that I was able to move with Intense, that’s how much I trust and value them.
