I moved from GA to MA and never has a mover been a more central part of such a life change! Richard Lewis is one in a million. He personally works every minute of the job and never stops. He puts himself in the shoes of his clients, anticipating their needs and concerns. He is meticulous, honest and sincerely caring about not just your ``things``, but your well being. Not a single commercial carrier can compete with him in ANY respect. Not with personnel, price or perfection. He remains the very best in the industry! I am now a Berkshire girl and could not have done it without Richard and his company.
Richard has moved my family household cross-country twice (Georgia to California and back again). We were so delighted with his service the first time that we couldn't imagine working with anyone else for our return trip. Richard was very communicative as we planned and executed the move. He managed all the logistics with seeming ease and endless energy. I have recommended him to others and will continue to do so without reservation. And on a personal note, thank you again for moving us safely back to Atlanta. We're finally settled in and are glad to be back in our old home. Thanks also for the coffee!
Our move from Atlanta to Greensboro was not something we were looking forward to. We lived in a high rise condo, and the building was in the process of replacing the elevators, which meant only one elevator available for both residents and the move, and the usual loading dock was taken up with equipment for the elevator work. This meant that there would be difficult access for truck parking and loading.I met with the usual well-know movers, and while their sales people were very nice and accommodating, their prices were extremely high, and I knew from past experience that the crew would be complaining non-stop about what the sales person said they would do. I was lucky enough to get a referral to Lewis Van Lines, owned and operated by Richard Lewis, from a good friend who I trust implicitly.
Here are the key differences we found between Lewis and the rest. Richard, the owner, surveys your home, gives a very reasonable, well thought out and well explained quote, and is with his crew the entire time, from packing to loading to delivery and unpacking. He deals with the unexpected (which always is to be expected in a move) in a professional manner without complaining - he just figures it out. His crew is equally professional and very pleasant to work with. All of our property was treated with care, and Richard did not try to sell/use anything that was not needed. His insurance coverage for our goods in transit without an additional charge was an added bonus. While I hope not to have to move anytime soon, I will never move with any other company!
This is a review on our recent move from Atlanta to Charleston SC using Lewis Van Lines. From the moment we called Richard Lewis (owner) to let him know his company was chosen, he began to tell us ``you can relax now, your move will be stress free!`` Well, in fact - it was!!!! (imagine, a stress-free move!). He first said he'd call us every Friday before the move as a simple touch base and in fact he actually did that (most comforting). He and his team showed up on Monday morning of move week bright and early as promised and immediately began the packing process. Richard was literally with us every moment of every day - packing, loading, driving the truck to SC, and unloading at our new home. His crew (two other men) was professional, responsive and very hard working. And whether is was during packing, loading or unloading, Richard was just as actively involved with the work as his team. We also quickly realized that you don't have to mention something to Richard more than once - he doesn't forget a thing. He moved our entire house, including lots of crystal, china, antique tea cups and heirloom Hummel figurines without a single bit of breakage. On top of all this, Richard was quite personable and cheerful - a very upbeat, ``no worries`` type of guy. If you want a high quality, on-time, stress-free move, Lewis Van Lines is your pick!
Richard Lewis, Lewis Van Lines, was referred to us with an outstanding recommendation by a close friend who had also completed a cross-country Atlanta-Denver move. We were extremely pleased with the entire process. Richard is every inch the professional. His work crews are efficient, fast, thorough and well supervised. We hit several “bumps” due to time delays forced by weather, and Richard handled them all personally and quickly. Richard is also a gentleman. Always available to listen to concerns, treating his crew with respect, and responding quickly to every question about the entire moving process. He made a cross-country move much easier for us as we followed blizzards and storms from Georgia through and across the Rocky Mountains to the western slopes of Colorado. I recommend him highly and would be glad to be contacted if you have any questions.
Moving is stressful -- give yourself the gift of Lewis Van Lines and a tremendous weight will be lifted! Richard and his team are the most meticulous, efficient, and pleasant crew we could ever imagine. Perhaps most impressive was that Richard was physically present every step of the way, overseeing packing, loading, and unloading, and even driving the truck himself from Texas to Connecticut (laden down with our 25,000 pounds of precious cargo)! Nothing was lost, nothing was broken, nothing went wrong. We have moved more times than we care to count, and we never knew a move could be so flawless and movers could be so responsive, responsible, and easy to work with. Richard exceeded our expectations and then some. He is the best in the business, period.
Professional, hard-working, highly competent, fair and dependable are some of the words we would use to describe Richard Lewis, Owner of Lewis Van Lines. My husband and I have moved 4 times in the last 8 years and have used several of the “major” moving companies. All with poor experiences. From the first meeting to the last box off the truck, we could not have been more pleased with our decision to hire Richard. The key reasons we decided to hire Richard - 1) we knew he would own the move from start to finish 2) he only works with the best packers and loaders in the business 3) he quoted a fair estimate. The key reason’s we’d hire Richard again and highly recommend him - 1) NOT one scratch, dent, broken or missing item in the entire 23,000 pound load 2) completely reliable (on-time and and responsive) 3) his loading and unloading teams were outstanding 4) he is a good bloke :-). We hope we never have to move again but if we did, he’d be the first and only call we’d make.
We cannot say enough wonderful things about Richard Lewis and his moving business. We moved from our Atlanta/Sandy Springs home of 20 years to Eliot, Maine. While interviewing the ``big`` name moving companies, we never felt comfortable that there would be one person in control of our move. Then we found Richard Lewis of Lewis Van Lines. Richard visited our home, looked at all of our belongings, gave us a more than competitive price. And it WAS the final price, no estimates or surprises! Richard came to our home as promised before 8 am the first day and began the packing with three other amazing young men. They protected all of our floors, wrapped all of our furniture (even our patio furniture!) and carefully wrapped all of our belongings and precious antiques and treasures. Richard and his crew then loaded HIS beautiful 18 wheel truck and drove the 1200 miles to our new home. He arrived before 8am again at our new home and by 530pm, all was unloaded, the furniture was unpacked and put back together and our beds were ready to make up. AND, not one thing was broken, no floors or walls were scratched! Richard Lewis is the concierge mover. He was incredibly easy to work with and with Richard, he is the company and there are no middle men to work with. Please feel free to contact us if you need more information. 404-784-7755. Richard made one of the most stressful times in our lives not only bearable but easy.
Richard and his crew were very professional. They just moved me from an 8,500 sq ft home in Marietta, GA to a 3,369 sq ft home in Boca Raton. They were very meticulous about packing my fragile and valuable pieces and were very good about breaking down and reassembling large pieces of furniture. My new home has a very narrow winding set of stairs to the 2nd floor. It was very difficult to get large pieces of furniture upstairs, but they managed without any damage to the furniture or stairwell. The price for the move was very good (about midrange of the quotes I received). If I ever move again (I hope not), I wouldn't hesitate to call on Lewis Van Lines.
I recently used Richard to move me from Atlanta to Durham and I can not say enough good things . Having been in the corporate for almost 40 years I have moved countless times and this one was one of the smoothest I can remember. Richard was professional, meticulous and very careful! Highly recommend him as he is a great person.
I wanted to thank you for the excellent care and customer service you and your team provide for our recent move. You obviously cared about our belongings and went the extra mile to ensure they were safe and sound during the move and also while in storage. I know it took a lot of work, especially when you had to essentially load twice and unload twice but it was obvious that you thought this way was the best way to ensure everything arrived in good stead, which it did. Your crew was also excellent, continuing their careful wrapping and protecting on that first day even though it was late and they were very tired. Please give them my thanks as well. Thank you again Richard. It was so great to see that excellent customer service still exists and that people take pride in their work. You and your team are a fine example of that.
Richard moved our four bedroom home & SUV the 2500 miles between Atlanta and San Francisco. He was in every way a pleasure to work with: friendly, communicative, easy-going yet efficient, careful, and thoroughly competent. His truck arrived promptly and there were absolutely zero lost or damaged items. Not a ding or scratch on the walls or floors of either home. He assembled good teams for both the packing and unpacking phases. Richard's attitude is very professional and he is also fun to work with. I highly recommend Richard for your moving needs!
Lewis Van Lines is the way to go. I have moved many times in my life and this was the smoothest ever! No need to worry about anything, Richard Lewis handles every little detail. All you need to do is relax and let him do his job. He was punctual and neat throughout the move and everything arrived without any damage whatsoever and we moved lots of crystal and china. I would recommend anybody looking to move consider Lewis Van Lines.
Richard and crew moved my family of six from Atlanta to Houston in May 2016. Absolutely amazing experience - fast and detailed, courteous, considerate and professional. Richard was knowledgeable about all aspects of moving and it showed throughout the move. The team was careful in handling all of our items, including antiques and high dollar pieces, with no scratches or breakage. Lewis Van Lines exceeded my expectations and I would highly recommend to all!
If you have a big move coming your way, use Richard Lewis with Lewis Van Lines! He goes above and beyond, you won't be disappointed! Best moving company around! Very professional and efficient. If you need to move, Lewis Van Lines is the company to use. We liked them so much, we used them TWICE!
