The move went like clockwork. There were no problems, nothing broken, and a Sanders family member answered the phone whenever I called.
Our estimate was very close to the actual costs. The people handling the boxes and furniture were careful to take care of our things.
Sarah was great at answering all my questions and communicating during the process, and the crew were fast, efficient, but still careful with our items.
Negative Ted R. Sanders Moving & Warehouse Reviews
Several things were damaged, including family heirlooms. Two years later, I discovered five missing foot pegs from a sectional sofa.
Wardrobes, large boxes, a TV box, washer/dryer service, and lamp packing were promised but not provided. Movers also scratched the washing machine and dented the refrigerator.
Yelp
The movers lost a piece of my son's crib, forcing us to buy a new one. A second truck arrived ten days later, and customer service did not impress us.

Cost $2,000 more than expected. The movers were great, but the final amount was disclosed only the afternoon before delivery, leaving little time to prepare.
