District Relocators

My experience with District Relocators was great! I was moving from one apt in DC to another across town, and moving a few big items into storage. The 3-man moving team showed up on time, got the job done quickly, nothing was damaged, communication was good, and the price was fair. I have no complaints. Would 100% recommend.

My boyfriend used this service for his move yesterday and had a great experience. The mover team, Dre, Jamaal, and Chris arrived on time and immediately got to work. They wrapped his things up and provided furniture covers before putting his things into the truck.

We met them at his storage unit and when we thought the storage unit would be too small, they looked it over and said they could fit everything. They meticulously maneuvered everything into our unit and got it all to fit! Because of this, they saved us from having to pay more money for a larger unit.

We honestly had a good experience from start to finish and are greatly appreciative for their assistance. Plus, their pricing was incredibly reasonable. We will definitely be using them again.

Look elsewhere if you care about receiving your belongings in good condition. The walls of my apartment were also damaged during the loading process (pic included), so I'd only work with them if there are literally no other options. You'll probably be better off renting a UHaul.

I had a straightforward 1BR move from NoMa (DC) to Brooklyn (NY) that was quoted for $2k+. The largest item I had was an IKEA floor length mirror -- all of my other belongings were packed into new boxes. Thankfully I grabbed a picture of my loaded items before they drove off.

Imagine my surprise when they began to deliver my boxes, and...they all appeared with water damage. It wasn't "oops I spilled my water bottle on this" bad -- it was as if my boxes were left out in the rain overnight. Then stomped on. I was especially confused since I made sure to not pack any liquids in the main boxes.

Initially I received a phone call from their office stating they were aware of the destruction and that they'd "immediately look into it." However, DR began to drag their feet when it came time to compensate for the damage they caused. Big surprise.

In most cases I would move on and take the blame for not purchasing their insurance policy. But I wasn't aware they'd take my belongings out during a flash flood without protective gear or alerting the customer. Please learn from my mistake.

District Relocators were very responsive throughout the whole process of scheduling my move. They were reasonably priced and made the move very easy. Other than a couple scuffed walls, they did a great job and were efficient. I'd definitely book them again for a move.

Punctual, professional and fast. Would recommend using them. Was loaded and unloaded in under 2 hours. Staff was fun and friendly.

I got a referral from a friend for District Relocators. They came highly recommended and I booked them about 6-8 weeks out from my move. They responded very fast, and even when I had random questions throughout, the response was always less than 48 hours. The day of the move was stressful until they came along. I pretty much stayed out of the way and let them do their thing. They were so fast and efficient. They even moved things that I hadn't expected which was a huge plus! Everything was moved in a little under 2.5 hours. The pricing was fair and worth it. I would definitely recommend their services and plan to use them when/if I relocate again in the DMV.

I've had the team take care of 2 moves in the past 3 years and they do everything as advertised. They show up on time, the guys work hard, and they made things work when issues with the loading dock happened.

I had a wonderful experience moving into my new place. Tony was very responsive when scheduling the appointment. The movers were great and extremely helpful throughout the entire process. I highly recommend using them for your next move.

Easy to book and good communication (mostly via emai) before the move but I was really blown away by the moving crew. Driver Dre, Don, Jay, and the rest of the crew were amazing. great attitude, made sure they knew what needed to be moved and got to work. The communication among the crew was outstanding and they seemed to just know who needed to do what and when. Can't speak highly enough of these smart, professional, and fun team. Highly recommend.

This was one of the rudest companies I have dealt with. I highly advise that anyone considering working with them stays away. There were several logistical concerns with what they proposed us. For example, they wanted to access to our home for packing on a weekday when we were working at the office so they could fit in other mothers on our moving day. On our moving day, they wanted to carry the furniture down the stairs (ten flights!) because our freight elevator was not available during the only 2 hour time frame that worked for them, despite us having booked them for a 4 hour time frame. This concerned me that furniture would be damaged during the process.

Beyond the above, the greatest concern with this company was the tone they used during our interactions. From the minute I first introduced myself to them on the phone and explained our concerns I was met with hostility and rude responses - they also said "it's not a problem we know what we are doing" without giving simple explanations or answers to my questions. I explained that if I did not understand some of the logistics behind it I would be concerned about continuing with them. They told me to find other movers and ended the call.

EDIT (11/17): The reply below is false because I did not call the day before. Our move was scheduled for November 6, while my review was posted on November 2. Since I cannot respond to the below directly, I'm editing my comment here to include the email from them as proof.

We only asked about the painter as a convenience. We never stated that November 6 would not work if it could not be changed. The only reason I called after learning the day could not change is because our apartment building did not have the freight elevator available at the arrival window they provided (it had nothing to do with the painter). After receiving the attached email and learning the day could not be changed, I called to explain that we had the elevator booked 12-4 pm. Considering smaller items could be moved first, the only request at that point was for them to come one hour later than what they proposed. They refused. We were fully prepared to move on November 6 and happily went through with our move using a different company.
