Negative MVM Moving & Storage Reviews
Yelp
We were quoted WAY LESS than we ended up paying, and I had to contact them about billing errors several times. The movers themselves were nice and accommodating.
Kathleen Clark, Google
Movers worked hard to unload. Estimator sorely missed the amount of time/trucks needed. Packers packed maybe 30% of house contents. Moving took a day longer than promised.
Tomy Rhymond, Google
There was some miscommunication between the leader and crew. Because of that the crew came unprepared. They left several things, and we had to move them ourselves.
Neutral MVM Moving & Storage Reviews
Yelp
The movers started off by wearing masks, but by the end of the morning their masks were gone. I was charged for 3.5 hours because billing starts when the crew leaves and ends when it returns.
Our move did not go as expected in several different ways, but it goes a long way when the company cares enough to reach out to ask how they can improve and make it right.
Cindy Lloyd, Google
Disappointed that Columbus mover was over an hour late. Left Toledo mover to start unloading by himself. Missed walk thru to know where things went.
