Their professionalism and knowledge of how to pack and move my antique dressers, mirrors, and upright piano, exceeded any moving company I have ever used. Nothing was broken or lost.
A large item that was difficult to move into a bedroom was planned out and given a lot of thought and they figured out a way to get it in the room successfully. Price was right too!

Highly recommend! Great service! They take exceptional care of your belongings! Their packing services are efficient and thorough. Excellent communication with the moving coordinator throughout the entire process.
Negative Guardian Moving Systems Reviews
During the move some valuable items were damaged. These guys have been non responsive and unprofessional. The original salesperson Ed Watson won’t return phone calls.
Four weeks later still no quote or contact, even after calling the office after week three.
Yelp
I am on day 15 of not having my household goods. They still have my stuff. They won't email back, won't return calls, and no one knows what is going on.
