Negative Wherley Moving Systems Reviews
C Bender, Google
They quoted a certain number of containers (4 large) and sent two large and two small (equals one large) and wanted to charge us the full amount for 4 containers.
Tom S., Yelp
I noticed that my albums were missing and had been replaced with Italian Opera and Harry Belafonte albums that weren't mine. I also was missing several boxes.
Ruth M., Yelp
Their insurance is about weight..NOT VALUE. Be sure if you have something of value, insure it separately.
Neutral Wherley Moving Systems Reviews
Jensen Bloedorn, Google
Disappointed with the lack of mindfulness with some boxes. My babies teething toys and rattles packed with dog toys.
Conrad Beaulieu, Google
They may provide a best price quote but they may significantly increase the amount charged after the move attempting to get the moving person to approve the up charge.
Deborah Morse-Kahn, Google
Wherley partners with GoMinis of Duluth, not good combination for ease of communication and clarity of billing.
