Negative Anchor Moving & Storage Inc. Reviews
Yelp
The movers were great but management did not replace a table that was damaged. They said I would be called back and reimbursed. No call weeks later.
Frank Dallago, Google
A few pieces of furniture were damaged during the move. I submitted my claim to the Anchor office over two months ago and have followed up with calls and emails. NO RESPONSE.
Darlene Freeman, Google
The workers were unprofessional. They damaged walls and broke the banister going upstairs and tried to hide it. I received no response from the owner.
