Review of Augusta Movers
Summary: We were moved by Augusta from Pickering to Niagara Falls on December 18 & 20. The move was a great experience with no issues or damage. A great Augusta team of 4 (Dave, Spec, Anton (both days) and Nick & Justin (one day each) was greatly appreciated. The actual cost of the move was just over $3,100 but below the estimate. This included loading two trucks the first day, storage for two nights (on the trucks) and unloading in Niagara Falls on the third day. We would not hesitate to recommend or utilize Augusta again.
Strong points:
- We chose Augusta because Dinko (Founder) was very responsive and provided an on-site estimate within hours of our call. Others promised in their ads on-site estimates but they directed us to complete their online form. We did not feel comfortable with their process and wanted a higher level of assurance on the total cost. The real added benefit of Dinko’s walk-thru for us was his packing tips, how to organize boxes and specific examples from other customer moves.
- The moving team was great to work with. They arrived on time each day, were efficient and very careful with our furniture and boxes. They worked well together and were not shy to ask questions as to where an item should be placed. This was really appreciated.
- One of Dinko’s examples which we used was to color code (sticker) the boxes and provide the unloading team with a map i.e. green to basement, red 1 to the master bedroom. It worked very well.
For us, we had stressed about the move and our possessions. However the packing suggestions provided by Dinko helped along with and the caring and the professionalism of the loading and unloading team (Dave, Spec, Anton, Nick & Justin) went a long way to ease concerns. In the end, no issues, no damage and a lower cost. Life is Good!
- Approximate cost of services:
- $3,100.00

Thank you for your detailed review of our work Terry!
We are very happy when customers take our advise on how to prepare for a smooth transition. As you can see, it pays off :) You guys were estimated for almost double of what you paid and this is not because we worked faster and harder than our usual pace, but because you guys were extremely organized and very well prepared!
Thank you once again for being our valued customer!
Our team wishes you all the best with your new home!
