Negative Need A Hand Movers Reviews
Yelp
The move took more than one truck load and an extra 5 hours. I was charged $800 more than quoted and $700 more than another company quoted.
Yelp
A coffee table broke during transport, and the movers made three large scratches on my new floor. The crew became sloppy from exhaustion.
Yelp
Two of the three movers said they were new, and one did not know how to use the hand cart. I would suggest more training.
Neutral Need A Hand Movers Reviews
Yelp
The first crew was amazing, but the second crew was outright bad. They went to the wrong storage unit and charged us for the extra drive. It is hit and miss.
Yelp
The phone estimate underestimated the truck size, so we moved the rest ourselves. The movers who showed up were great, but the truck was not large enough.
