Besides the most affordable price, the company also had the best communication among others, with quick and up-to-the-point responses.

Farah Tasneem, Google

They completed the task faster than they originally thought, so we ended up paying less than our quote.

Negative Flash Moving Reviews

Yelp

The quote was way off and my Vegan sofa was destroyed. Rather than make restitution, they blamed me for the damage.

Yelp

The movers refused to wear booties or lay down plastic on new carpet, which they ruined, and they handled fragile boxes carelessly.

Yelp

I waited almost a week without a response after providing my contact information, then asked for the courtesy of a reply.
