Gen T., Yelp
Moved from SF to LA. Movers were very efficient, helped pack and wrap our belongings and completed delivery ahead of schedule without any issues or damage. Communication with the moving team was great. I'd definitely recommend.
M K., Yelp
Transparent pricing and clear communication throughout. The co-owner personally completed the walkthrough and provided a proper estimate, then followed up quickly on my questions. The movers were efficient, kind, and finished my one-bedroom move in under two hours.
Nicole F., Yelp
The movers handled an expensive, one-of-a-kind art collection with care, while the office staff stayed patient and solution-focused. The owner followed up with me and my client to ensure we were taken care of.
Negative Gentle Giant Moving Company, Inc. Reviews
Patty Hughes, Google
A Baker mahogany table arrived severely damaged. The claims agent said repairs would cost less than the deductible, and six months later the issue remained unresolved despite the replacement-value insurance.
mari vitale, Google
The delivery window grew from 3–14 days to a month, with no delivery date or driver assignment. The most frustrating part was the lack of communication, leaving us stuck.
M F., Yelp
The interstate contract contained errors in hours and mileage, and repeated questions went unanswered. The owners talked over me, and I found the process exhausting and unprofessional.
Neutral Gentle Giant Moving Company, Inc. Reviews
Douglas E., Yelp
Personnel were friendly and knowledgeable, and their price was fair. They completed the work on time and at the agreed price, but a worker broke my $600 TV; insurance paid less than $50.
