Yelp
"I have used student movers twice & they were great. The second time they forgot a lamp shade but, took the liberty in calling us, and delivered it on their own time after hours. You don't find too many honest movers. Thank you Student movers"
Negative Student Movers Inc. Reviews
"Moved quickly and they were super nice but caused a lot of damage to my apartment (running into the walls and causing massive dents, chips in the door frame, and pieces of my door being torn off)...Tried to reach out and get some help with the damage since I was charged by my apartment and was told it’s not their problem if they cause any damage to the apartment/house."
"Do not trust them with your furniture at all. When it comes to moving furniture these guys are the laughing stock of the barrel...paid over $1,000 to be moved when we was quoted a price of $450...and not to mention broken furniture...This was a movers nightmare!"
Yelp
"I had to be out of my apartment on Friday. Thirty minutes before the movers were supposed to be here they called to say one of my movers was sick and they were canceling me until tomorrow. Not even caring or understanding, I HAD to be OUT TODAY! Horrible customer service"
Neutral Student Movers Inc. Reviews
"I managed to hire two movers from this company at the last minute, which is a plus. It cost a good amount of money (approx. $400) and they will KEEP all of it, regardless of the timeframe it took to move. "
Yelp
"I have mixed feelings about these guys...They got everything loaded into the trailer in about an hour...In all, what I expected 2 movers to do in 3 hours, they took about 4.5 with 3 movers. The rest was friendly enough but...pieces of furniture were dinged and scratched."
Yelp
"We were originally scheduled from 9-10 AM...The crew didn't arrive until 11:00, with the only English speaker providing nonsensical excuses as to why they were running an hour late. Got started and ended up being fairly quick...but lacked punctuality. Probably wouldn't go with them again."
