Negative Simpler Moving Reviews
Jake, Google
"Beware - under quote and under deliver! Job quoted at ~$500, came out to ~$950. Despite all info provided, they under quoted by nearly 100%. Owner was dismissive when I complained. Go with another company."
"Unfortunately my experience was extremely negative. Movers damaged my couch and bed, arrived unequipped, took much longer than my previous moves and cost more. Very unprofessional and careless."
Yelp
"DO NOT HIRE SIMPLER MOVING!!! Used them for packing and moving, paid $3421.80. Several items damaged—owner promised partial refund, but I never received it and follow-ups were ignored."
