Cannot recommend enough. We had a last minute move and booked same day, and THANK GOODNESS they were available. They were extremely responsive, great price, quick.
Negative Catfish Moving Co. Reviews
R P., Yelp
Movers arrived 30 minutes late, and we were happy until we realized they had broken our TV. They promised reimbursement, then ghosted us for two weeks.
SJ, Google
No one showed up for my 9:30 am appointment. I was given a 2pm time, but no one arrived until 4pm; only two movers came, and I had to help unload.
Jasmine Brown, Google
The move was quoted for three hours but took 5.25 hours. The movers worked slowly, took a break after 1 hour and 45 minutes, and asked for tips while I helped move.
Neutral Catfish Moving Co. Reviews
Belle Oliver, Google
The movers were very friendly and provided great customer service. The move was efficient, but the final price was $904.15 after an original quote of $587.50, causing sticker shock.
Maria Himebaugh, Google
We had a piece of furniture and the floor damaged, and after almost two months there was still no resolution. They seem unorganized and need to support customers after the move.
Rebekah Stewart, Google
The crew arrived three hours late, but loaded my truck efficiently and caused no damage. The owner refused compensation for the delay and was rude on the phone.
