One of the best things I found about Stevenson Transfer is the fact that they will come pick up your furniture & then store it until you are ready for it. You pay for storage of course, but they take exceptional care of your furniture & boxes of belongings in the meantime. This all is counted as one move, so you arent paying for the move to the warehouse & then again from the warehouse to your new residence. The employees from office to movers are all very professional & courteous. No wonder they have been in the business for several generations. I highly recommend them.
We used Stevenson Transfer for a local move and had a great experience. The crew was careful and courteous the entire time working non stop through thunderstorms, heat, and a power outage. We had a tight squeeze getting furniture into a loft area. They figured it out quickly. It was impressive to watch! We highly recommend Stevenson transfer to anyone looking for moving services. You wont be disappointed!
This was the best group of young men who came and packed my house and moved me.. Unbelievable work ethic these 3 young men displayed. From the time they arrived at my house till the last thing was loaded onto their truck they didnt stop.. Thank you Mike and Angie for sending Brett, Brett, and Tyler they did a superb job..
Stevenson Tranfer crew members were very courteous, attentive, and worked very hard to help us place our items where they needed to go. We had painting going on, and they moved around them. My husband and I would highly recommend this moving company!!!
We needed help unloading heavy furniture from the borrowed moving trailer. They were great and made everything so easy!!! They knew how the pop the backs off the heavy recliner sofa and move it in so much easier than us middle aged ladies could have done. Worth every penny! We will definitely call them again when we need any kind of moving help! They were a dream to work with!
They did a great job moving a piano for us, incredible care and they were extremely fast. Called them later to move a heavy table, and it was the same: they were right on time, very professional, communicated clearly, the whole job was done quick as a wink. I also appreciated that they wore their masks when they came into my home.
Very professional, they took excellent care of my belongings. Moving is stressful, but their employees made me feel at ease with the process. Previous companies Ive used have not gone to the lengths that Stevenson Transfer did to properly protect, pack, and transport my belongings. I highly recommend!
Service was absolutely great. Movers were so accommodating. Everything arrived in the same condition as it was packed. We had several glass cases that are family heirlooms and they packed them so carefully. All were in perfect condition at delivery. We would not hesitate to recommend Stevenson!
I was so impressed by the incredibly polite and helpful men that moved my washer and dryer. They did a very careful job of moving and were very quick. Im so glad I found this company on my Google search. Will definitely use them again!
Having lived in Chicago and moving more than a handful of times through the years I thought I had experienced “good movers” before. Well no one even compares Stevenson Transfer. We are so thankful we found and used this company. The booking process was easy, informative, transparent. The men that moved us were professional, courteous, and super skilled. Worth every dollar. Thank you Stevenson Transfer!
Stevenson Transfer was a miracle on my recent 100 mile move. They showed up exactly when expected. They were very kind, thoughtful, and helpful! They did the entire move with travel before the end of the afternoon. I cannot recommend them enough for your next move!!
The guys were friendly and professional. They were efficient and got our stuff loaded quickly.
Honestly, the best decision I made was to use Stevenson’s. They handled everything professionally, were kind and took the time to listen. Nothing got broken and I was amazed at the speed in which everything was moved and I sure had a lot of “stuff”. Don’t hesitate to hire them. It was worth every cent!
Great job! Entire crew was perfect gentlemen
AMAZING company. Angie, Cindy and Mike - and of course, your crew both on both ends of the move - thank you so much for handling a very complicated move with ease and calm. To be clear - they were not the cheapest bid, but honestly? They werent the most expensive, either. They were right in the middle. The team was fantastic, there was no guess-work and we knew exactly what to expect with every step of the move. We used Stevenson to pack us up - which Im grateful we did. Their crews of professional movers always wore masks, followed very rigorous safety protocols and everything arrived safe and sound. And they even were able to deliver everything one day early! I would highly recommend them!
Have used Stevenson twice and they are the best! Highly recommend to anyone.
Great! They moved me a few years ago from Chicago to Atlanta. The movers Ive used since fell in the mediocre to good range.
Our move by Stevenson Transfer was exceptional. Everyone we came in contact with at Stevenson was terrific! The two movers were professional, friendly and got the job completed in such a timely fashion. We definitely recommend Stevenson Transfer!
Excellent staff...quick...efficient...even came in under estimate! Highly recommend.
Orderly and efficient. I had a lot of things to move and they did the job without a hitch.
Mike, Kevin and Bill were amazing. So professional and courteous. Hard workers. We love that Stevenson Transfer is a family owned business and it’s very obvious they take pride in their work. Thank you!!!
We used Stevenson Transfer for our move from Ottawa, Illinois to Michigan. They did a great jo loading and unloading. Both crews made the move a lot less stressful. Angie and her staff were flexible and helpful when move in dates had to be changed. Mike and Angie Stevenson made the whole process seem easy. Would highly reccommend them! Dont forget to invite them to your Christmas parties.Darryl and Margaret Anderson
We had a great moving experience, the guys were right on time, professional, courteous and hard working. The job got done ahead of estimate which was a nice surprise considering the whole moving adventure can be a bit daunting. Would highly recommend!!
We used Stevenson Transfer for two long-distance moves within one year: once when we moved from Chicago to Denver, and again nine months later when we realized Denver was NOT for us and moved back to Chicago. Thankfully, Stevenson made these very stressful processes far less so by being a dream to work with.Blindly searching for a long-distance mover is always a gamble, but Stevenson had good reviews and their office staff, Angie and Lorna, were very communicative and quick to respond when I first inquired about working with them. Before the first move, someone came to assess our place and what we were planning on moving in order to provide a very accurate estimate. Due to this level of service, we decide to hire them for our move.In the time leading up to the move, their office was on top of everything, reaching out to me to confirm addresses, times, loading dock access, etc. before I could even worry about chasing them down to coordinate logistics. On the day of the move, their foreman, Kevin, was right on time with a crew of movers who quickly got to work wrapping our furniture and loading up the truck. At no point did we see anyone being reckless with our belongings or feel like they were stalling to get more hours in. We took a few days to drive out to Colorado, and Kevin (who was driving the truck) was available via text or phone the whole time. He was at our new place exactly when he said he would be, and the new crew he was working with on this end quickly unloaded the truck and set up everything to our specifications.When we decided to move back to Chicago I was worried Stevenson wouldn’t be available for our move as they are not based in Colorado and I would have to do the blind search for movers all over, but I took a chance and reached out to ask, and they were more than happy to move us again and didn’t charge us anything extra for not originating in Chicago this time. We even had Kevin as our foreman again, who remembered us and was just as great to work with a second time around. Everything with the second move went just as smoothly as the first one, from the office staff communicating and coordinating to the moving crew doing the heavy lifting.Now that we are back in Chicago to stay, we plan to use Stevenson for any local moves we may do in the future. But hopefully not for at least a couple of years; we’ve had enough moving adventures to last us a while.
They never returned my email inquiry.
Everyone I dealt with from Mike to Angie to the moving crew were extremely professional. I had to move quickly due to a job transfer and they worked me into their schedule immediately. Highly recommend!
Stevenson staffers were accessible and easy to work with through the whole process. They took time to understand my needs and made a slightly difficult move pain-free. The movers were courteous and efficient. Great experience, would highly recommend.
Wonderful company to work with. Quick with call back. Movers were very professional and careful. We had one very large heavy item to move into basement and they treated our treasure with extreme care. I would recommend them highly for one item or whole house.
Working here currently, very friendly and efficient movers. 10/10
From the initial meeting to the final move, everyone we dealt with was professional and very personable. Highly recommend this company.
Very professional and took extra care in moving of furniture! Defiantly recommend!
We moved across town and they helped our transition be smooth and efficient. Everyone was polite, friendly and very hard working. I would highly recommend their service to anyone getting ready to move.
I have made a number of long distance moves, and Stevenson Transfer is my favorite! Excellent communication, no guess-work, and very professional and yet personal. From the very start to the day we received all our items, everything was smooth sailing. Nothing was damaged in the move.
Everyone at Stevenson Transfer was pleasant, helpful and professional. We had things going to different locations at different times and it was well coordinated. Our crew was respectful of our possessions. They packed, loaded and unloaded quickly and efficiently. They were good to work with. Much thanks for their help in a stressful time.
I contacted Stevenson based on the excellent online reviews and had a great experience. From the time Bill came to our home to do the estimate in Chicago until Dave, my crew chief, drove away after delivering in Denver, I honestly didnt spend a second worrying about our stuff. I just knew I was in great hands. They were extremely careful with our possessions, worked tirelessly for hours, delivered in Denver right on schedule, and were just a pleasant group of people. I thought the price was very reasonable - and I even got a refund at the end when the weight of our stuff came in a little lower than Bills estimate.
Friendly people, easy to work with.
I had a large China hutch to move along with a smaller cabinet and a few misc boxes. But mainly the China hutch - it belonged to my motjer. Very big, very heavy. Wouldnt fit in the front door, had to go through the kitchen. The 3 men that came were wonderful. Professional, efficient and nice. Really nice. So worth the cost. I highly recommend this company.
Our electrical contracting business - Ott Electric - in Ottawa uses Stevenson Transfer as our warehouse. They accept our large deliveries, check them, log them and email us when they arrive. They also -- hassle free -- deliver them when and where we need. Their warehouse is huge and extremely clean and their Team of workers are amazing. I highly recommend them for household moves, business moves, or warehousing your home items or business. Whether local or across the country, Stevenson Transfer moves your memories carefully and on time!
They treated us like family, from the initial estimate through the packing/loading/unloading process. We received helpful, responsive service from the office staff as well as the moving crew - which helped alleviate the stress of an interstate move after living in our home almost 30 years.
This is the 2nd time in 3 years we have used Stevenson Transfer. We would never think of using anyone else! Mike Stevenson, the owner, is actually the one to come out to your home to estimate the cost of your move. He is so friendly and kind and very professional. We had our quotes pretty quickly. Lorna in the office sent us an email detailing every aspect of our move. For this last move, we even came in under weight and got a small check back. Every little bit helps! I had to call Lorna and email her with questions, and she was always prompt with a reply. Our previous move was a few miles down the road, so we only used their moving service. Unfortunately, we underestimated the amount of stuff we had and needed a 2nd truck and crew. I was so upset not expecting this additional cost, even though it was totally our fault. Bill Stevenson, Mikes dad, actually came out to our house to assess what was going on and only charged us for the extra truck and not the extra manpower. He even pitched in wrapping some last minute things for me on his own! Talk about customer service! This last move was out-of-state, so we needed packing and moving service. Both crews - Dave, Shane, Mark, Bill and Kevin - were so friendly and efficient. They wrapped all our belongings with extra care. They obviously took pride in their work and it showed. Shane is the fastest wrapper Ive ever seen! Both days the guys were here, we chatted and talked like we were all old friends. Again, so friendly and courteous, yet very efficient. This move we had a couple things that got bumped around, but Dave, the driver, took pictures and immediately sent them to Mike. They apologized profusely and totally owned taking care of things for us as far as getting things fixed for us. What other company does that? Everyone should, but that doesnt always happen anymore. I think that alone, offering to fix things immediately, speaks loudly of their professionalism and business ethics. I thank them all so much - Mike, Lorna, Dave, Mark, Shane, Bill and Kevin - for moving us TWICE to our new home and, for their awesome customer service. I would HIGHLY recommend them in a heartbeat!
We used Stevenson Transfer to move our furniture to Florida and they did an excellent job. From the minute I called to get information from Angie to Mike coming out to give us a quote, til the actual move...service was outstanding! Mike actually came out a second time (which was an 90 minute drive and he had to go to 2 houses) to quote because we kept adding items to our move.I have used Stevenson Transfer for several local moves but wasnt sure if they did more than local moves. They do and they are professional. Our actual cost came in under the actual estimate. Thank you Stevenson Transfer in Ottawa, IL
We used Stevenson Transfer with our move from Chicago down to Orlando and could not have been more happy with the moving process. From the beginning Angie was super responsive to our questions and was kind enough to send a rough estimate over so we could compare quotes from different vendors. Bill, our cost estimator, was extremely friendly and his estimate was on point. We actually sold some of our furniture after the estimate and the weight came in under so we received a credit! Lorna was our move coordinator and would communicate with us frequently to give us a status on where our items were and the estimated delivery date. The entire process was a breeze. I was worried that a cross-country move would cause me a lot of stress but I didnt stress one bit and it was all in part to hiring Stevenson Transfer as our movers! I highly recommend!!
Have not yet used services. Person was extremely informative, straightforward with pricing, and services.
If you deliver here, plan to wait even if you have an appt! Locals take priority. Why even have an appointment then?!!!
Great caring staff
Great people to do business with!
Prompt return call with info, little on the pricey side.
