"6th Man Movers exceeded all my expectations! Communication up to and on moving day was excellent. The guys who moved us took great care with all of our items. We had no mishaps during the move. I thought the final cost was reasonable."
Sample negative reviews
"Furniture pieces were left unwrapped even though I told them to wrap everything...To replace my damaged items (what can even be replaced) would be $1200. They offered me $130. In summary a move that cost me more than TWICE what was expected and damaged many furniture pieces and shattered several dishes..."
Rachel B., Yelp
"They moved us into an apartment and somehow managed to lose at least 10 boxes...Movers also dropped our coffee table on concrete and damaged it...I called and they said they'd call me back same day and get the key back. It's been 4 days - no call."
Yelp
"They broke a ton of stuff. Tossed things every which way into boxes including framed pics...did not accurately label any boxes...One vintage chair was completely broken. There were scratches All over furniture... It was also exorbitantly expensive."
Sample neutral reviews
Yelp
"They were easy to get a quote and schedule in short notice. I experienced great customer service during the quotation and scheduling process. The day of the move, they called ahead to advise that they were short a guy, which subsequently turned out into a longer moving day(they get paid by the hour) and at that point I couldn't reschedule because I already had taken a vacation day and planned everything to move that day.The guys that showed up were nice and courteous and worked hard. My only complaint is that they left my couch laying sideways with the back on the floor and it was missing a foot. I had already signed everything and they had been gone for about 5 mins when I noticed. I tried calling both the main driver and the supervisor, left messages and no one returned my call. They didn't even follow up with a phone call the next day."
Yelp
"They did a good job wrapping everything and protecting larger items so they didn't get damaged, so no complaints there, but there was no sense of urgency at all, they moved pretty slowly all day...there was a $48 charge for moving supplies."
Yelp
"Firstly, I want to say that I LOVED these guys. They were courteous, funny, kind, and handled every piece of furniture with care. I would likely hire them again, but there were some issues that need to be addressed. To start, they only came with 1 truck that was not nearly big enough to handle a move of our size...Our entire patio set, 5 racks of metal shelving, along with about 40 boxes were left sitting at our old house, so we eventually had to rent a u-haul and borrow a friend's pickup truck to finish everything over the next 3-4 weeks."
