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.)

Steve and Ben and their team are great. My move from DC to PA went insanely smoothly - no hiccups at all, and ended up being faster than we'd thought! It was so much easier working with them than a big moving company -- both in terms of logistics/timing and price. They made it work on my schedule, and were transparent about everything. Couldn't have asked for anything better for my move!

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.

This is an excellent moving company! Communication was always prompt and informative. The owner named Steve is extremely friendly and knowledgeable. They arrived literally to the minute that they said they would and were the fastest most efficient movers. I highly recommend grasshopper movers to anyone!

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!
