Stress-Free Moving with College Hunks Moving and $50 Cash Giftcard Giveaway @CollegeHunks #CollegeHunksOrlando

Moving in any aspect (residences, business, relocations etc) can be challenging and time-consuming.  Having to organize, condense, and pack sometimes a life worth of belongings into boxes seems often to be overwhelming.  As a military family, we understand the logistics of moving and occurring within a short amount of time.  My family moved to Florida almost 3 years ago after having lived and worked the last decade in the Washington D.C. area.  We were basically given 4-5 weeks to move from the Washington D.C. area to Florida as my husband was selected to start a new military based position.  In that short amount of time we had to move states, find a home, find schools for (at the time) pre-teen son & toddler identical twin boys, find doctors, pack all of our belongings, and everything that goes along with a move.  Fortunately, my elderly parents owned a home near the Central Florida location we were moving to so we did have my parents nearby and I was able to find us a home to rent.  During this time in Florida, we have been able to really experience the area and we recently had the extreme blessing of being able to build our family a new home in a new subdivision of Central Florida.

Growth (and Tips) in 2011

My husband and I were both used to interstate, government, and long distance moves and unfortunately were familiar with the complications of working with a moving company.  Personal effects being destroyed during the move or missing,  unreliable moving staff, overcharging for work not performed and more are just some of the difficulties that can occur during the move.  As always, I researched to try to find honest, dependable, and affordable movers.  I was open for a national moving company chain as well as a local business since the move for us this time was going to be local.  During my search, I came across College Hunks Moving and College Hunks Hauling Junk.

Their official twitter handle @CollegeHunks was following me on Twitter and I was able to find out that College Hunks Moving and College Hunks Hauling Junk has locations across the nation.

What started with two guys trying to earn extra money with a borrowed van has grown into a multi-million dollar junk removal and moving franchise network with a national presence. College Hunks Hauling Junk  and College Hunks Moving is a national junk-removal, labor services and moving company, with franchises serving 45 markets in 25 states, including areas such as Central PA, Chicago, Dallas, Denver, Indianapolis, Los Angeles, Northern NJ, Tampa Bay and Washington DC. College Hunks tagline is The University of Stress-Free Service, speaking to their commitment to provide a superior experience compared to traditional service companies.

They offer a full-range of services that include local and long distance moving (office or residence); junk removal; donation pickup (including helping to find an organization to donate your items, if you don’t have one); portable storage solutions; home staging assistance; light demolition; and more services.

College Hunks Moving and College Hunks Hauling Junk tagline is “The University of Stress-Free Service” and it shows. The “HUNKS” stands for Honest, Uniformed, Nice, Knowledgeable Students.  Their website is very user-friendly, detailed explanations of services provided, live chat with CJ (customer service), easy to locate any of their U.S. locations by zipcode, and their list of Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) answers many of the often asked questions about moves.

It was a BIG plus for us to know that every College Hunks Moving location is fully licensed, bonded, and insured.  They are also Certified Packers/Loaders and ProMovers by the American Moving and Storage Association.  They also offer free, no-obligation estimates on all their services and have won numerous customer service awards including 2011 Angie’s List Super Service Award and 2012 Franchisee Satisfaction Award.  (I also appreciated that they support and employ veterans).

I contacted the College Hunks Moving and College Hunks Hauling Junk Orlando location and was immediately able to reach Johnny Ansari (johnny.ansari@1800junkusa.com) (321) 299-2544, a franchise owner of College Hunks Orlando.  Johnny was very knowledgable, personable, friendly, and answered all of my questions.  There was no hidden costs or fees to worry about with College Hunks and their Orlando location.  Everything was discussed upfront and the end-result was very AFFORDABLE.

I was happy to receive text message confirmation about the date and time of the move (which have not been my experience with other moving companies).  Johnny and one of his excellent staffing partners, Brandan Underwood, arrived on-time and in uniform, and came with moving equipment and additional accessories to ensure protection and care of our belongings.  They worked quickly, efficiently, and were very friendly to my family.

As I was creating live social media postings on Facebook and Twitter during the move, I was able to observe their professionalism, dedication to the work at hand, and their sincere interest in making sure that everything was taken of to create a 100% stress-free environment.  My family and I were EXTREMELY PLEASED with their service and overall experience and HIGHLY RECOMMEND them to all.  (Download a free digital copy of the “Ultimate Guide to Moving and Junk Removal”: http://www.collegehunkshaulingjunk.com/faq/ultimate-guide-moving-junk-removal).

With a new year approaching, any kind of move can occur professionally or personally.  As a way of continuing to provide resources and tips to our Mami of Multiples audience (and to promote the great services of College Hunks Moving and College Hunks Hauling Junk), we are offering a $50 CASH GIFTCARD giveaway to help on your next move (or of any of the services from College Hunks).

  1. I would be interested in having the junk hauled away from my garage.

    I saw these guys on Millionaire Matchmaker a few years ago! LOL! One guy brought his date to haul junk.

  3. I like their haul-away service! Near me, they salvage furniture to sell and the profits go into a college fund!

  5. I would like to use the donation pick-up. It would be convenient to schedule pick-up from my home at a time that is convenient to me so I can donate more of my families good conditioned items. Great review!

  12. I liked Mami of Multiples Facebook Page and “Liked” the College Hunks giveaway posted on the Facebook Page.

  19. What a great company idea. We could use this company for help with picking up for donation some furniture.

  29. We’ve been looking for someone to tear down my Mom’s house for a long time,and they sound like they could help!

  36. I think this is a great idea. So many times moving is so expensive and this is a great way to move and help out!

  50. I would love to have them haul away junk in our garage!
    Entered the Rafflecopter form as “Wild Orchid”

    Thanks for the chance to win!

  59. I would be mostly interested in the Appliance Removal & Recycle Old Appliances service.

  61. Over the lact 20 years, we’ve had pretty much the same moving experiences you describe. As we are facing another (local) move soon I went ahead and requested a quote. Their website says all the right things and your recommendation helps. Wish they had given you a promo code.
    Thanks for the info!

  64. Well before I moved a month ago, I would have said donation pick up. Now I really am very limited in everything I have. 🙂
