Negative Apple Moving Reviews
Jeremy Duty, Google
The packers used mislabeled boxes, packed carelessly, and a 65-inch TV arrived damaged. Empty boxes were also left behind.
Judith Bloom, Google
Furniture was damaged, boxes were not placed in the right rooms, and items were still missing. The company did not respond to repeated requests for help.
nicole franklin, Google
The movers were late, lacked proper materials, used a truck that was too small, and damaged multiple pieces of furniture. I would not recommend them.
Neutral Apple Moving Reviews
Robert Paulson, Google
Tatiana, Natalia, and Carolina were punctual, professional, and very nice, but months later I found little care had been used when packing garage items.
Michelle Cook, Google
The packers were professional, but labels were basic and the inventory was too vague to identify high-value items or missing belongings.
Tyrone Anderson, Google
The packing personnel worked well, but changing the schedule from three days to two delayed delivery by eight days for a 26-mile move.
