Moving Company Recs?

Hi Ladies,

I am moving in two weeks from Falls Church to Woodbridge. Do you know of any good moving companys in the area? I recieved a quote today that was for almost $900. I was trying to stay in the $600 and below range. Its not like I have a lot of stuff. I only live in a two bedroom condo. Is $900 an average for movers?
TIA

I priced out movers before I moved into a studio apartment a couple years ago.  I only had bedroom furniture, a sofa, loveseat and a small kitchen table and chairs+clothes etc.  I got quotes around $450, so your $900 quote doesn't seem too far off.

Don't have any specific company recs though, sorry.

I've used Commonwealth Movers twice and have been happy with their services.  I think they were round $150/hour with a four-hour minimum, and their estimate was around four hours for my one-bedroom apartment.  DH and I paid about $2000 together about a year ago to move two apartments (one one-bedroom and one two-bedroom) into one two-bedroom apartment.

My clients have good things to say about Town and Country Movers and Gullivers Movers.

we have used able movers and rec'ed them to several people. ! friend has used them 2 times now. www.ablemovers.com We moved from Manassas to Bealeton. We had a 3 story townhouse and moved to a 2 story single family home. They quoted us at 1,400 as estimate but due to less time needed for them to finish it eded up costing 1/2 that.
