Negative Bos Moving & Services, Inc. Reviews
"Our experience with Bos Moving was horrible. They ruined furniture, dropped and broke items, crushed boxes, then refused a refund and owner would not fix broken items. Company is unreliable and dishonest."
"Quoted for an 8 hour move. They sent 3, not 4, so our move took 12.5 hours. Movers threw household items, broke a trinket, scuffed walls, and hid the damage. Owner made excuses."
"Moved us, but later discovered missing items and broken furniture. Have waited months for any resolution or compensation, had to involve an attorney. Would not recommend, they don't stand by their work."
Neutral Bos Moving & Services, Inc. Reviews
"The men did a good job and worked hard, but I wasn't told it's customary to tip. Make sure you have cash on hand!"
Yelp
