They did not appropriately pack a valuable picture; the glass shattered. Many sentimental ornaments never arrived; containers went missing. I would never, ever recommend them.

Disappointed: Called for help unloading our UHaul, but were curtly told, 'We don't do that.' Will not call them again.
Neutral Stuart’s Moving & Storage Reviews
Professional and friendly. On time and efficient. Packed with care, but the price was twice the other quote I received. Damaged a piece of furniture and a glass lamp shade, which was not acknowledged. Satisfied but will choose another next time.
