Process to arrange services was simple and efficient. Movers were great! Took great care in not damaging the property as furniture was being removed. Understood what was going where, adapted many times!!
Negative Joey's Movers Reviews
Gwen Fiske, Google
Communication with Joey’s Movers before our move was very poor, with some messages not getting any response at all. No one showed up for our appointment to get an estimate, and no one contacted me.
Nicolas Wieczorek, Google
Joeys movers broke several of our items and after a year of back and forth with documentation they then failed to pay us the money we were owed. Will not use again.
Cathleen F., Yelp
Movers didn't show up until 8pm!!!!! Can you imagine expecting to move at 8am and not having a team until 12 hours later? Once the movers got there, I will say, they were great. Super efficient and very nice guys.

My experience wasn’t too great. The movers were actually not very professional. I was moving a large sectional sofa into my new apartment. The two men arrived without measuring tape and they didn’t even wrap/protect my couch!
Lauren R., Yelp
Billy & Angel rocked it but when it came to my couches that took an hour just for two pieces... Plus they damaged a few items which I will be filing a claim soon.
