Billy Littlefield, Google

Terrific experience with Kora. They moved our 2BR within SF in about 5 hours. Crystal clear communication from the quote through move day, hard working crew, and great organization.

Negative Kora Moving Reviews

Paige McGee, Google

Our move was cancelled 40 minutes before the scheduled start time. The company initially offered options, but communication stopped; texts and phone calls went unanswered, leaving us without a solution.

Rocio Amado, Google

It’s been over a month since one of my closet drawers was damaged during the move, and despite their promise to repair and return it, I still haven’t received it.

Michelle Kim, Google

They arrived late (originally supposed to arrive between 12-1PM; day of, they called to say they'd arrive at 1:30PM; in actuality arrived at 2:10 --only because I called them at 1:50).

Neutral Kora Moving Reviews

Claire Schachtschneider Tasoff, Google

Reliable company but movers were late, worked very slowly, and I was overcharged significantly from my original quote. Luckily, they were very careful with items and wrapped furniture well.
