Martin S. to McCorquodale Transfer
Scheduled moving 3 days prior. They arrived 15 minutes early. We're very professional, fast, and clean. Didn't take 1.5 hours. Prices are very reasonable. Would highly recommend. Next time I move, they will be my first and only phone call.

Excellent movers and people. Many of my friends have used them in the past and recommended them to me. They showed up right on time and nothing was damaged. I can't say enough good things about this group!

I've used McCorquodale Transfer 3 different times to deliver antiques from New Orleans! I've gotta say they did such a great job! They really know how to take care of one of a kind pieces. Always on time with a smile on their face they are definitely the highest of high end moving at its best!!! I would recommend them to anyone who wants a great experience and that wants all of their precious belongings in the best of hands!

The same EXACT thing that McCorquodale did to Mary C and Ellen M, they also did to us. They refused to repair or replace a brand new $2,000 upholstery item after they dropped it and ripped it. Our story is basically identical to the others. This company claims to be insured, but they refused to file a claim for us. We were actually told that they would prefer to settle this without contacting the insurance company. They sent us a check for $199 and expected us to go away. That check is now in the hands of attorney. If there is anyone else out there that they have done this to, please contact me.

Let me just say this...moving is super stressful, we all know this!!! I found this company through a business associate, and all I can say is WOW! These guys were on time, super fast, and did an excellent job packing all of my valuables. I am a huge collector of antiques, so I was super impressed with their attention to detail. I HIGHLY recommend these guys! 5 stars all the way

I used McCorquodale Transfer because I had some valuable antique furniture that I wanted to receive special care. They damaged several items (some looked like water damage though it was not raining that day??!!!) and broke the marble top on an antique chest. They did not want me to get an estimate on the repairs--oh no, they had their own special guy who could repair everything. He came out and started running all over the house spraying something out of a can on all the furniture with water damage and some things that weren't even damaged, before I stopped him. Then he took my marble top, which was in two pieces, and returned a few days later with it glued back together. There was glue all over the marble, the two pieces did not line up and all--it looked like a 6 year old had done it. It would have been comical if it had not been a cherished heirloom. I tried to contact the owner numerous times during this period and when I was able to get through to him he gave me the complete runaround. It finally took a letter from an attorney to get him to pay for a new marble top, but of course the same type of marble is not available anymore which was a huge disappointment, and the water spots are still on my furniture. Run from these people!

My wife and I moved from the Nashville, TN area to the Birmingham, AL area. We have moved 5 times prior to this move and this was by far the best experience. Leading up to the move, Seneca was always quick to respond to any questions. On moving day, David and his crew were on time, worked hard, and worked efficiently. I highly recommend these guys for anyone needing the services of a moving company.

Some friends in Liberty Park sold us their dining room suite, treadmill, and stationary bike. While David and a friend planned to move everything with a rental truck, I hired McCorquodale to speed up the time. David and Robert were prompt and hard working. They got the job done in 2 hrs and my husband worried it may take 3-4 hrs!! All of our new furniture was well taken care of and I have these guys to thank for it. Don't look any further Birmingham, these are the locally owned movers you will want to hire!!

I recently used this company for an retail store move. Everyone on the team was so efficient and polite. Adam was my crew leader and he has been with the company for over 9 years. From the estimate to the end of job, I was impressed. Moving is not easy and McCorquodale Transfer made it very pleasant. I would use them again!

I have used McCorquodale Transfer on a number of occasions when I needed to move some high end furniture moved to a few locations in the Birmingham area. The movers were always prompt and very professional. Nothing was scratched, dented, or even rubbed the wrong way. What I thought would be an all day move just turned out to take about 5 hours or so saving me time and money. Their office is conveniently located within Cahaba Heights so they can get to almost any area of Birmingham in very short order. These guys come highly recommended and will do a wonderful job for you, your family or your business.

I'm disgusted. Broke my grandmother's table, showed no remorse, ignored phone calls, offered $30 on the $1200 estimate we got to fix the table. Details below. McCorquodale was recommended to me, and I used them on 2 occasions. The first was to move a piano - no significant issues, but I felt like the movers acted almost irritated with us, and that they dragged the move out to take more than the time necessary (the piano was moved 1/4 of a mile, involving no stairs or difficulties, and we were charged for over their minimum charge time of one hour - by my clock it took 1 hour and 10 minutes from the time they left headquarters). I have no idea why I used them a second time, I should have listened to my gut, but we were moving things that were important to me and I didn't have any problems with the way they had actually handled my piano. The second time the movers seemed careless. One of the items we had them move was a table, handed down to me by my grandmother. The movers turned it on its side, allowing the slate center to slip out and break. No apologies, just mention of how he had thought it was glued in and that it was charcoal, not slate. We were told to get an estimate to fix the table, which we did by taking a broken piece to a stoneworker (who confirmed it was slate). After providing that estimate to McCorquodale we were offered $30 - the estimate was for $1200. My biggest issue was in how things were handled after the break. I understand that things happen (especially when you are careless), but I expect people to stand behind their actions and to demonstrate integrity when things go wrong. One mumbled sort-of apology with a shrug of the shoulders as the workers were leaving, being told the table wasn't worth anything by the workers, and such an insulting amount offered to fix the table by the owner. AND, the workers had me sign something saying that the damages would be covered at 30 cents per pound AFTER it had been broken. The worker said that signing was to indicate that the move was complete, that they may be covering damages at 30 cents per pound but that if we got an estimate and it was worth more the owner would handle it. He was callous enough to mention that it was only "nicer furniture" that was covered over the $0.30/lb. I was devastated, and shouldn't have signed - that's on me, but I'm disgusted that the owner did not even attempt to fix the problem. He didn't even return any of our phone calls for MONTHS. So disgusted. With the carelessness and the apathy.
