When we were looking for a mover we noticed that another couple from Clifton Park were using Mabey Movers who have been long established in the Capital area. We were from Waterford right next to Clifton Park. To make a long story shorter we both wind up going through this organization for our moving needs.

Mabey works with Atlas Movers and in checking with the other couple we learned that everything went well. We contracted with Mabey/Atlas and had most items boxed for when they arrived. They packed what we didn't, mostly larger pictures and then loaded their semi vehicle, taking an inventory as they went along.

We moved down in October and they arrived ahead of when they anticipated they would and on the day after my wife arrived and were at our home when I later arrived. The only things that were broken that we are aware of are items we packed ourselves.

Knowing what we now know, we would hire them again. You can contact them if you wish and they will come to your home to give you an estimate without a commitment. At least I would think they will go up to your neck of the woods!

Here's their website address: http://www.mabeys.com/about.html

BTW, they weight their semi trailer before they arrive to load then weight it again afterword. That's how they calculate the final fee you get charged. When you get an estimate and fee is based on the weight, it could go up substantially like ours did, but not necessarily. We were underestimated by about 25%. Didn't surprise us though. Esitmating was difficult since we had so much to consider and we weren't even sure of everything going at the time of the estimate!
