Apparently, this company doesn't have a website. At least I couldn't locate it on any of the search engines.

- 7 trucks
- Address: 1983 Marcus Avenue, Lake Success, NY 11042
- Phone: (516) 437-1777
- The information in the Safersys.org report indicates no problems with their license and insurance.
- Inspections section shows alarming statistics: both vehicle and driver out-of-service rating are higher then the national average, giving them only "Conditional" rating.
- Members of the BBB
- Original Business Start Date: 1/1/1919

- Long Island Moving & Storage Association (LIMSA): listed as a member.
- MovingScam.com: the company is mentioned only few times, no bad (or good) reviews.
- RipoffReport.com: didn't find any article about this company.
- Other sources: found no other mentioning on this company anywhere.
Summary:
This company has no reported complaints and the only red flag is their safety record. We would generally recommend using this company, however in case of a long distance move before making your choice you should ask them the following questions:
- Who is going to deliver your stuff to the final destination? This company is not an agent of any major van lines, so they either have their own interstate trucks, or they use a subcontractor.
- If they use a subcontractor it will still be OK to use them - as long as you run a similar investigation of the company they plan to subcontract your job to. Get the name of the company they use for delivery, however keep in mind that there are hundreds of independent truck owners that small and medium size companies use as subcontractors.
Good luck with your move,
