We contacted Bates to handle our move because we had heard good things about the company. We are so happy we did. They arrived to pickup our household items on time and the driver was very helpful and professional. Once loaded they stored our items for us as our new house wasn’t ready. When we closed we again contacted Bates to deliver our stuff. Again, they arrived on time with a crew of folks to unload and place our items where we wanted them. They were very patient with us as my wife changed her mind a couple of times. All in all, a great experience. I highly recommend you talk to them. Ask for Jenny, she is our favorite employee and helped us with a lot of information.

United agent Bates Moving in Salisbury, Maryland did a fantastic job for our inter-state move from Maryland’s Eastern Shore to southeast Virginia. The preplanning, estimating, delivery of packing supplies all went smoothly, as did the actual Moving Days. Our full house required two vans and Bates went out of their way with staff re-scheduling and overtime to provide drivers and helpers to make sure we were out of one and into our new house on schedule. Highly recommend Bates!

Bates Moving is incredible. They moved my elderly parents from their home in Ocean Pines to assisted living in Philadelphia. This was not a straight forward move as some items were staying in their home and others were being moved to assisted living. Donna in the office and with whom I shared numerous emails and phone conversations, was very personable and efficient. I felt very reassured that Bates would make sure that everything went smoothly for my parents and it did. On move-In day at assisted living, the personnel loading the items into their apartment were very helpful in positioning furniture, even to the point of locating a bed so so that vents would not be blowing down on my elderly mother.

The office staff is extremely friendly and everything was performed fast and timely. Two guys loaded a two-bedroom place in about an hour and unloaded at the new place in the same amount of time. Rates are a little high, the movers are a bit impersonal, and your email address is used for spam. However, nothing broke and everything went smoothly!

They arrived exactly as promised and scheduled. And they were fantastic. They managed to fit everything into 2 containers as I hoped. Did an excellent job. Very polite and efficient hard workers. Great hard working crew. The best moving crew I have ever experienced. And I have moved many, way too many, times.

I could not be happier with my experience with Bates Moving & Storage. I used their services several years ago and when I contacted them for a second move, they exceeded expectations. The entire team was professional, helpful and communicated every detail regarding the move of my furniture. The team took amazing care of my furniture and were a delight to have in my home. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone who wants a fantastic and easy moving experience. Thank you for everything!

Bates accepted and stored online furniture purchases for my new out of town condo for 6 months. They kept me informed with each receipt, and rejected goods that arrived damaged. They delivered the furniture within a week of my request when the place was finally ready. I couldn’t have asked for a better system.

Bates moved our belongings into their storage and then to our new home two months later. Everything arrived in great shape.

Bates moved me here to Ohio from Delaware 6 months ago. I should have written a review before this, but … stuff happens. This is the best company for moving that I have ever experienced. And I’ve moved A LOT. The entire crew – office, driver, loaders – treated me and my property with the utmost respect. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Bates Moving and Storage are 100% top notch professionals. I’ve used them for several moves and overall was very satisfied with their services. The movers arrived on time and were very polite and professional. I would highly recommend them for a local or interstate move.

We used Bates Moving/United Van Lines for a move from Grasonville, MD to Atlanta, GA in early summer 2018. They did an outstanding job from providing a very thorough estimate to having an extremely knowledgeable moving crew who took great care with my parent’s treasured possessions. They answered any questions and provided much needed assurances throughout the moving process and Donna Bates who works in their office was such an asset!! Even their packers were awesome. I cannot say enough positive things about this family owned business. Everyone I worked with throughout the process was extremely professional and pleasant to work with. If I have another move, this is the first company I’ll call!! Many thanks to Bates Moving for their excellent moving services!!

Absolutely the best decision I ever made with this move. They were highly recommended to me and I can see why. From the initial call for info until the truck pulled away after delivering my furniture they were indeed professional. They took such care with each piece and even all those boxes. Polite beyond words ! Hadn’t moved in 24 years but if I ever do this again they will be the only ones I call.

Bates did an outstanding and quick job packing us for a United Van Lines move from Maryland to California. Nothing was lost or broken. Only quibble was that maybe they were TOO careful, wrapping metal cookie sheets in several pieces of paper.

Given the shaky reputation moving companies have, we approached our cross country move with trepidation, especially since we were moving some hard to replace items and small boats and motors.

The sense of confidence Bates left with us was justified. Everything arrived intact and on time. All the personnel we dealt with were competent and cooperative.

I recommend Bates and the delivery people very highly.
