4/12/2010	"I wanted to say how pleased I was with the services rendered. The movers I was provided with on Friday were courteous and efficient. The overall process went seamlessly and I commend your staff on providing excellent service."
2/26/2010	"Just a note of thanks for the wonderful movers. The men came early and did what it took to get the move done. They cleared a path in the snow from the previous evening to make sure the piano was moved safely. They were very careful and efficient. They made the two delivery stops as requested and would not eat anything until after the move was completed. The price quoted was the price I paid. I would definitely recommend Ben Hur and would use them for future moves."
2/14/2010	"... My wife and I were very satisfied with the services. The movers were excellent, careful with our personal property, courteous and professional in their duties, as well as accommodating. I took the liberty of recommending BEN-HUR to a neighbor… Thanks from a satisfied customer."

2/3/2010	"... It was one of those moves where we didn’t have a whole lot of time to plan. After couple of bad experiences, and also all the horror stories we've heard I was extremely skeptical about using movers. But Ben Hur exceeded all our expectations. We got quotes from 6 different movers, and Ben Hur's quote was one of the cheapest. But Ben Hur guys were extremely professional, extremely careful in dealing with our stuff. They were able to deliver the stuff within the promised timeframe, and didn't cost us an extra penny. I highly recommend Ben Hur for all your local and long distance moves."
2/2/2010	"I had a great moving experience with Ben Hur and would definitely use them again for any future move. The foreman was obviously very experienced and organized. They were fast, efficient and thorough. I was also surprised at the strength of these average looking (build) guys! I was very relieved also that the company sent 3 guys to handle my move - as I was on the 5th Floor of a building with no elevator. Thank you very much Ben Hur for your excellent service."
2/2/2010	"I found Ben-Hur in the Yellow Pages, went on your website to find a quote, and Ben-Hur called me back within 10 minutes. That's what I call quick response! Fortunately movers were available for that same day and came by my place in about 40 minutes. The three of them were quick, courteous and professional. They wrapped up the furniture and had it up from Manhattan to the Bronx in about 30 minutes. I was VERY pleased with Ben-Hur movers - efficient, quick and moved and handled the furniture without any dents or scratches. When and if the need arrives, I would definitely use you all again, and I will recommend your company to anyone else looking to move."
1/30/2010	"Your movers were great and had such a positive attitude all day. They stayed until the job was completed on a very cold NYC day. Thank you so much. I could not have done the move without you guys. "
12/17/2009	"The move from the apartment was smooth and very satisfactory..."
12/2/2009	"We had a great experience with Ben Hur! Louis was in charge and worked quickly and professionally. His team was hard-working and polite. I would definitely use Ben Hur again and will recommend it to friends."
12/2/2009	"I normally do not send in opinions, however, your guys were very professional.. Let me say it again VERY, very professional, fast, careful and really protected my furniture.. I'm going thru a very difficult time right now in my life and I really appreciated the time they took to ensure that my belongings were very well protected."
12/2/2009	The team that moved us on Monday was out of this world! They were quick, careful, kind, professional and they did an unbelievable job. I would recommend these movers to anyone looking to relocate.
11/26/2009	"The experience was wonderful. Your movers were very professional and speedy. I would definitely refer friends or give you my business if I move again!"
11/24/2009	"I have used Benhur moving for the first time for my 83 year old mother in law. Everything went very smoothly. Her valuable electric organ and grandfather clock were wrapped securely and reassembled perfectly. The two moving men were very professional, courteous and efficient. I would highly recommend benhur."
9/17/2009	"I have used them three times in the past. Great experience for a large move!!!"
8/3/2009	"The team was very professional and did a great job in wrapping everything with no single broken piece! I have already started recommending your services to other people."
7/18/2009	"Thanks for getting back to me so quickly. This is another example of why your company has the reputation it does for quality and efficiency. You guys are really head and shoulders above your competitors."
7/13/2009	"I used Ben Hur to move in 2001 & was extremely happy with the work. Unfortunately, when I had to move again in October 2005, I used another company a friend liked, thinking a mover is a mover. Wrong decision on my part; not all movers provide the same qualtiy service. I didn't know the time of day the movers would come until the actual move day. Some of my belongings were damaged & there I was working with the movers at night in the dark. Not good at all. So, when I moved this time, July 10, 2009, I called Ben Hur again & was even more impressed than when I used them the 1st time. Tito & Morris are the best; efficient, professional knowledge & experienced with how to move items. We had a particular challenge getting my Kitchenaid fridge into a small space, but Tito & Morris got the mission accomplished. Again, I ca't stress enough professional, fast, & very hard working with good communication. Thank you, Tito & Morris ; I can't reccommend you enough!!!! "
7/10/2009	"I recently hired Ben Hur to help me move my three-bedroom household from one part of Astoria to another Astoria neighbor twelve blocks away - to a third-floor walkup. From the moment I contacted Ben Hur online to the point where I said goodbye to the team who moved me, I had a great experience. When I first contacted Ben Hur I knew when I was moving but not where. Then I told them of the new location - then I had to change it when that deal fell through. And then the move date changed. Through it all, the staff at Ben Hur was friendly and professional. Finally, I couldn't have asked for a better, more careful and more respectful moving crew than the one I had. These guys really worked hard, bringing my heavy furniture up three narrow flights of stairs. The supervisor did a great job of managing his crew. And, by the way - straightforward pricing, no bait-and-switch, no jacking up the final price over the estimate. There was a slight increase over the estimate when my new location turned out to be one floor higher than we had all thought, but everything was clearly explained to me and was reasonable. I don't want to move agai for a long, long time. But when I do, I'll be calling Ben Hur."
7/8/2009	"I would like to thank Ben Hur moving staff and customer service for their hardwork in performing my move. The packaging was detailed and the overall move was smoothly performed. Anthony and his team were attentive to all the requests made and were very friendly in approach. I would definitely recommend Ben hur to my friends if they were to ever move."
6/24/2009	"my experience was very smooth...it was a stressful situation and they were understanding and fast moving. Will recommend them in the future to anyone who needs fast and honest service."
6/24/2009	"My experience was very smooth...it was a stressful situation and they were understanding and fast moving. Will recommend them in the future to anyone who needs fast and honest service."
6/9/2009	"Your team packed up our apartment, and they were fast, efficient, and very organized. The team leader was very polite and accomodating to my needs, as I was there with a newborn baby while they packed. During the actual move itself, they again worked quickly and were very careful with our belongings. The men were very careful to not bump any walls, etc. which was very impressive."
6/9/2009	"My move was easy and very affordable thanks to the guys at Ben Hur. The movers were very sweet, hard working and curtious. They showed up early and worked steadily. In fact, after they were done, had been paid and were leaving the building, one of them stopped in the lobby when he noticed I was getting a large delivery and took time to bring it upstairs for me - without me even having to ask! It was a very positive and stress free experience and the price was more than fair. Thank you."
3/23/2009	"I want to thank you for bringing excellent movers, the only request that i have is that you assign the same crew to the apartment that i will be moving into when i find a place. also, i would like to have a tshirt if possible, i like the logo. thank you again!"
2/20/2009	"I had such a great moving experience with Ben Hur. The men were so efficient. I appreciate Ben Hur for making my move a smooth transition."
2/8/2009	"Our move with Ben Hur in Astoria went very well. this is the second time we have used Ben to move in NYC. Both experiences have been very good! no complaints at all. Men were very professional and polite"
2/4/2009	Good things come to those who wait...Except I didn't have to wait. The crew that came to pack and move me were professional, timely and extremely organized. I couldn't believe that what I thought would be an all day event was completed in less than 4 hours.
2/3/2009	I have used Ben Hur moving service twice in the last three years. The workers are curteous and professional. They go above and beyond. I was very worried that my furniture would not fit in my new location,the supervisor assured me that it would. I could have kiss him for his reassurance. Quess what the furniture fit perfectually in to all the areas I had invisioned it would'nt. I would recommend to everyone who is relocating to a new town,city or apartment to use your company.
