From my first phone call to Elsa at Braun Moving to the last piece of furniture placed, my experience with Braun was fantastic! Our dates kept changing, and Elsa was flexible and agreeable.
Negative Braun Moving, Inc. Reviews
Yelp
Many items were missing, and they broke an armoire glass door and a Chinese cabinet. Repeated calls and emails brought no resolution, and the owner later stopped communicating.
Yelp
The move itself was fine and the workers were very professional and courteous. They broke the glass door of my China cabinet, and no claims representative ever contacted me.
Sally Anderson, Google
Items were not properly packed, resulting in breakage of dishes. My printer was ruined, and a coffee table and children's toys were missing. I filed a claim and followed up, but received no response.
Neutral Braun Moving, Inc. Reviews
Although most everything of value and importance arrived safely, many items were missing. Braun assumed no liability or responsibility, even when provided photographic evidence.
Yelp
Braun moved our household items well until the final bill. We were charged extra travel and gas fees that were not included in the quote.
The movers were great, but I later found a few damaged items and two missing boxes. I will be contacting the company about how to proceed.
