Review Analysis
From the first phone call to move-in day, Unicorn Moving & Storage impresses customers with fast, careful, and upbeat crews who handle belongings responsibly. Reviewers single out their efficiency, meticulous care for items, professionalism, and clear communication—qualities that are frequently missing at other moving companies. Most moves are completed on time or even faster than estimated, with fair and transparent pricing.

On the downside, some customers reported property damage, late arrivals, or higher-than-quoted final costs. These complaints often highlight trouble reaching management or unresolved claims. While issues are relatively uncommon compared to competitors, repeated concerns about follow-ups and last-minute price changes suggest that potential clients should clarify estimates, insurance coverage, and timing before booking. Out of 552 reviews, 85.5% were positive, showing that Unicorn’s strong reputation is well-earned, but some drawbacks are possible.
