Negative Elite Moving & Storage Inc. Reviews
Tracy N, Google
Quoted me around $500 and ended up charging me $1,300 for a small one-bedroom move. They also charged high prices for boxes and tape.
Alexis Cawley, Google
Cost was far higher than the original estimate: 9.5 hours versus 6 quoted. They left several items behind, and I had to make three trips to collect them.
Yelp
Movers were careless while handling items. They forcefully shoved paintings into boxes, chipping the frames, and scratched an almost new fridge.
Neutral Elite Moving & Storage Inc. Reviews

Omar and the team arrived at 8am exactly. They wrapped everything my first mover hadn't. Total cost was over $1,300, including $600 for packing film.
Tami Hunt, Google
We had specific storage needs, but the crew rushed and packed items we did not want stored. A $350 supplies fee was also unexplained.
Yelp
Truck and three movers arrived within the scheduled time for an easy local move. Items ended up scratched and broken.
