Unbelievable cautious the 2 worked well as a team Thane and Robert Reasonable for all that they did Accomplished move quickly
Matt, and his company took the time to help move my son's lego ship (18 feet) to Texas Children's Hospital for display. I am greatful and so appreciative that he gives to the community. THEY MOVED A LEGO SHIP IN ONE PIECE (impressive)! Please support this company!!
Had a great experience moving with them! Brandon and Kenan did an amazing job. It's been a few days since I moved and it looks like everything was moved quickly and in perfect condition. Plus they were personable and gassed up my mom who was helping me move. Definitely recommend!
Definitely recommend! Our move with Not A Hobby was amazing and smooth! Matt the owner is really cool and straight to the point and up front. Brian and Jordan did a fantastic job the day of the move. They were fast, hard workers (even with the elevator breaking and having to use the stairs), and are really cool and…
I needed to move some outdoor furniture immediately. I called Not a Hobby Moving and they were able to get me in their schedule as quickly as possible! Great experience! If you need help moving anything do not hesitate, CALL THEM!!!
Great service, thanks again!
My movers did an amazing job (Brian was one of them) !! They packed everything very carefully and worked quickly. It was one of the hottest days of the year and they worked so hard! Thankful for them helping me with my move
WOW! This was the best moving experience I've ever had, truly. Booking was so easy, Matt called me within an hour of my email inquiry and got me booked on the phone - no back and forth. Thane and his crew were absolutely incredible! So thorough, extremely careful with our furniture, and fast. Not one thing was…
Matt was easy to schedule with. Josh, Nate and Keenan showed up on time and were were amazing - super professional, efficient, and personable. We will definitely use Not a Hobby Moving for our next move.
Fast and efficient. The guys kept it professional and brought a good vibe during the move. Furniture and house wise they packed and protected everything better than expected.
Great experience. Easy to book, affordable, professional. Josh and Jordan went above and beyond to help me and my family move. They were patient and thorough and efficient. Highly recommended!
Josh, Thane, and Brandon where so efficient and easy to work with. They never stopped moving until the job was done. The best movers ever! Good job!
This was my second move with Not A Hobby Moving, and just like before, they made the move as easy as possible. Highly recommend.
Brian and Keenan were both quick and friendly! They got everything done in 2 hours! I definitely recommend them for your moving needs!
I've used Matt and his team for multiple moves in Austin. They do an excellent job and I have never had any issues. Highly recommend Not a hobby moving.
Not a Hobby Moving Company did an outstanding job with my move in Round Rock! I called them on a Monday; they were there on a Wednesday and covered the furniture to prevent damage. The team was professional and efficient and took great care of my belongings. They completed the job within an hour, saving us from possible injuries and stress.
We decided to give Not a Hobby a shot after my wife heard about them. Our experience was fantastic. The guys that moved our house were absolute professionals and did an awesome job. They worked quickly and got things done without creating damage in their wake. We will be using them in the future and recommending them widely.
The 2 man crew arrived late, to our 2 story home on Alvin High Ln a yr ago, tired at 3pm after finishing a hard move earlier the same day. They didn’t properly wrap framed pictures which broke. The glass had to be replaced. They scratched the top surface of a dresser, which after their handyman tried to repair,…
A very smooth move— Keenan and Devon were excellent!
Great mover I hired for two local moves. They arrive on time, communicate well, work fast, and do a great job protecting your items for a reasonable cost. Highly recommended!
Outstanding service. Fast and reasonable prices. Professional. Best moving company I’ve used in the USA.
Not a Hobby Moving absolutely exceeded my expectations from start to finish! Moving is very stressful itself, but their team, Jordan, Keenan and Brian made the entire experience smooth and efficient. On top of the move, it was pouring rain. The guys made a point to protect our belongings as best they could. They…
Let's face it, moving sucks! This move was smooth, efficient and as painless as possible. Great crew who handled my move professionally, personably and efficiently. Would highly recommend!
This was our second time using Not a Hobby moving and they were great to work with both times! Matt and the two guys who helped with our most recent move were friendly and efficient. We really enjoyed working with them and they made the move as fun and smooth as possible. We will absolutely be using them again in the future!
Brian and Jordan were fantastic! They took great care of the furniture and even though it was raining they got it done on time. They were very friendly as well!!! 10/10
Really a super experience. From the initial chat with Matt to spec out the job, to his follow-up and the great team that came. It wasn't a long move, but I have a lotta stuff and there were stairs. It was super smooth and without incident. I also appreciated an inventory system where I could really get concrete…
Great service! Careful with my belongings, very friendly and professional staff, really felt like they took care of me - would use again and can highly recommend!!
I had a major move with complicated access. Every company I reached out to insisted on doing a virtual call and bid. Matt actually took my call and understood my concern. He met me onsite advised me on where to drop pods, and gave me a very a good bid. Matt and team are moving machines! What I thought would take two…
Josh, Dave and their partner were very Professional and did an outstanding job with the move they were very skilled and I would highly recommend them to anyone and I am recommending them to family and friends. Great work!!
This is an email I wrote to the company after being prompted to provide feedback, and they never responded. Hi Matt & company, As I've finally had some time to unpack this past weekend, I noticed that some of my furniture was damaged by the movers. I made it clear that I needed them to wrap and protect all my…
I’ve moved a lot in my life. This was the best moving company I’ve hired hands down! It was a team of 3 guys, they were all very respectful, quick, and friendly. And FAST! Extremely reasonable price and they don’t have hidden fees like all of the other companies I’ve checked out and used in the past. Hopefully i…
Brian and Jordan were fantastic! They were super friendly and beyond helpful. Even with two rickety flights of stairs and several large pieces of furniture, they handled my move quickly and efficiently. They even helped reassemble some furniture items after getting everything moved in to my new place. I can’t recommend them enough!
These are the best movers I’ve ever had, and I’ve moved around a load! Hands down, you’ve found your movers. I’m reached out to Not a Hobby to help move my Dad, who has a lifetime of stuff, multiple safes, garages, you name it. We had five guys, two trucks, a 10+ hour day. Each person was so considerate and kind -…
Last minute reservation, good guys, great service. They move fast. And everything during my move went great. Thank y’all!
Thank you to Not A Hobby, my move went smoothly! Customer service and professionalism was spot on by both Matt and Josh!
Had an excellent experience with this company. The guys who helped me were professional, punctual, and timely. They were very commutative of expectations and services provided. They provided padded blankets to transport my tv and wrapped my couch to prevent scuffing while moving it. They placed all the heavier items…
I initially planned to pack my belongings myself and have Not a Hobby Moving handle only the transportation of my furniture and pre-packed boxes. However, due to an unexpected work obligation, I was unable to complete the packing as planned. Not a Hobby Moving was able to adjust their schedule to pack the boxes themselves and keep the move on schedule.
Returning customer with Not A Hobby Moving Co. Matt (Owner) and his crew went above and beyond once again. I used them about 5 years ago and again this past month. Both of my experiences with them were painless. Communication, promptness, quality, and price exceeded my expectations and made my stressful move a…
Crew was on time and respectful. Made sure to take their time to prevent any damages. Would definitely recommend!
