Neutral Cowboy Moving & Storage, Inc. Reviews
Yelp
"My bill at the end of the day was $940 for a one-bedroom apartment move. Outrageous. Customer service has been really great, but they’re still pretty expensive...not sure I will use cowboy again purely due to cost."
Yelp
"Was informed that movers would arrive at 9 am. Arrived 30 minutes late. Did a good job. One mover smoked while on job. Movers left personal trash. Charged incorrectly for lunch. Owners need to take more responsibility."
Yelp
"If you have the money, they did the job. This company is VERY pricey and rounds up per hour. Work was substantial, movers were friendly. The price is significant. Be prepared to break the bank."
