I have had many moves and thus, many experiences with moving companies. These include corporate movers and cross state movers. Grasshopper Movers is HANDS DOWN the best moving company I've worked with. Maybe because they are local and small, or maybe because they're just committed to providing the best service possible.

EVERY single person I dealt with at Grasshopper has been customer focused and professional. They are clearly a company that is focused on meeting customer needs versus up-selling or lengthening the process.

I would have even considered myself a not ideal client in that I contacted Grasshopper last minute and used them for storage far longer than anticipated AND asked for delivery and received it within 2 days of the request (meaning they didn't get to milk more money out of us just because they could.).

DC is filled with lots of competition and these folks are just old fashioned in their approach - they have pride in their work. Finally, they also had the best price based on my extensive research (which I do professionally). If only they provided services outside of moving and storage - housekeeping? mobile phone service? Wifi & cable TV? OK, now I jest, but you get my point.

Call them and sleep well. (FYI: I rarely write these because I seem to not have time, but I was motivated because of how awesome they all were to me - it's the least I could do.)

These guys are great.  Steve is the best.  I was working inside a really tight window (a picky condo unit that would only let me move in during certain hours).  These guys made it work: they showed up on time, were funny and courteous, handled my stuff with great care, and got the job done.  Very reasonably priced to top it all off.  Another guy ended up having to join to move in all my stuff within the allotted time period, and they did not make me pay extra for that.  Moving sucks, but they make it as enjoyable as possible.  Highly recommend.

Grasshopper Movers were great for my 1-bedroom size move. They made the entire process stress free and, dare I say it, fun! The prices were competitive and transparent, the staff was friendly, and they did a great job moving and protecting my stuff - actually wrapping entire pieces of furniture in cloth with tape rather than just draping it on corners. They charge a flat transportation fee and an hourly rate, which is similar to other companies but here they don't charge extra for stairs (really?!) or have any hidden fees. I will be sure to use this moving company for any other Washington, D.C. moves. In total, my one bedroom move took just under four hours.

I just wrote to Steven to re-hire Grasshopper Movers for a new job, and I realized I never provided an outstanding review for their original work for me, in June 2015. Suffice it to say they are the first people I am calling now, 2 years later, because the quality of their work back in 2015 was just exceptional. From scheduling, to planning, to move-in day, the professionalism was unparalleled. The actual move went flawlessly, with not even a smudge on any wall as they carefully maneuvered large furniture items around our narrow stair landings. Clearly, I would recommend as I am hiring them again myself!

Steve, Ben, and their staff are amazing. I cannot recommend them highly enough. Not only were they fast, professional, and provided work of the highest quality (no damages to anything), they are flexible and reasonably priced to boot. I relied on them to help me move from DC to Philly. They were extremely kind and responsive through several schedule changes as my closing date kept moving and loft renovations were repeatedly delayed. They just rock. I will definitely call them again next time I move.
