Provided by SuperpagesI was moving AGAIN but couldn't afford a high priced moving company. Most of the places I called either gave me a price of well over $500.00 or required that you leave your name and phone number for a return call and never called back. When I spoke with Marc, he gave me a price of $60 per hour because I was moving from such a small apartment. He said that the move would probably take no more than 2 hours. I packed the boxes and let Josiah and Cody do the rest. They did a phenomenal job! They were efficient and so courteous! There were torrential rains that morning but that didn't dampen their upbeat attitudes and willingness to get the job done. And the move took about 2 1/2 hours as expected. I have already given the companyto several people and will continue to highly recommend them! Extremely satisfied!!

Provided by YP.comWe called Marc for a move in Santa Fe. On the day of the move he texted at 7:30AM asking if he mentioned the additional fee of $120 to come to Santa Fe from Albuquerque.. He hadn't, plus during our early conversations he said the hourly fee included everything. We split the cost but really had no option if we wanted to move that day. Two young men (boys) showed up half hour late and were extremely slow in packing. We had everything in boxes and furniture broken down. The boys were polite but lacked experience in wrapping and packing, and again, worked very slowly.We ended up having to hire 3 more friends to assist if we ever wanted to get the move done at a decent hour. As it turns out they damaged much of our furniture (nicks and scratches), smashed a lamp shade and cracked a mirror. We contacted Marc and let him know of the damages to the mirror and lamp shade only, and discussed getting a quote for the mirror. Although disappointing, damages to the furniture we accepted as casualties of using inexperienced movers. We got a quote for the mirror, contacted Marc and he became defensive and accusatory and refused to pay for repairs. Supposedly he has insurance. I asked before the move and he confirmed that he did. I cannot recommend using Marc or his team for a move. He doesn't take responsibility for damages and uses young boys with little experience.

Provided by YP.comMarc and Dominic were very courteous upon arriving at my door on time. I had everything very organized, with all my boxes ready and my beds broken down already. I was amazed at how fast and efficient they were at emptying out my 2 bedroom apartment on the second floor. They do not charge for stairs to my relief. I was working on a budget at the time. I ended up paying $150 total for the move, and ended up giving them a $30 tip at the end! I was very impressed with the quality of service at magma movers, and will definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a move on a budget. They are always on the classifieds under labor and moving in the Albuquerque craigslist.

Provided by SuperpagesThis was my best move yet. My place was a mess and I wasn't really ready for the move. Aside from me being scared because they needed a new paint job on their AWESOME 32ft truck with a lift gate, Dominic and Eric were very FAST and very professional, even cracking jokes along the way. Both are very strong men and one is a Marine. They accommodated me very well and did an awesome job even with the mess. I hate moving, and most people do, but these 2 made it all the better. They feel like friends and I will recommend them to all I know in Albuquerque and Rio Rancho. You can't beat the prices for what they accomplish, so keep a couple of $20's handy when they are done. You won't regret it. Thanks guys.

Provided by SuperpagesNo frills kinda place, but really best rates of any similar "two men and a truck" type businesses. Marc and Dominic were both flexible with scheduling and easy to work with. They also list on Craigslist. A couple of nice guys, very helpful...Recommended!!
