Negative Apple Valley Transfer & Storage Reviews
The workers showed up and immediately took a 1.5 hr lunch break. Worked for an hour took a 40 min break. Then they left an hour early.
Yelp
It was not a good experience with our moving process at all! We had two unprofessional young workers that were moving our furniture and they didn't even know how to move things properly and therefore our furniture was damaged.
Yelp
They broke my door, they rolled a dolly through brand new carpet without laying down a cover, and they didn't take the boxes with them like they're supposed to. Super unprofessional company.
