Negative Up & Down Movers Reviews

"They quoted us $500 and tried charging $1,467 and change, after the move...completely damaged most of the furniture because they just wanted to get it on and off the truck as fast as possible and had little care for the quality of their job."

Yelp

"Please pay attention to the negative reviews and do not hire Up & Down movers if you care about your furniture....company had a reimbursement policy in place. However, as soon as I mentioned this...they began to avoid my calls and stop answering my e-mails."

Yelp

"My sons TV's screen was cracked during the move...Numerous calls and emails over the past 2 weeks resulted in no response from Aaron...company is not insured...A reputable company stands behind their services. That is not the case with this company."

Neutral Up & Down Movers Reviews

Yelp

"They were okay..I used them to move from new haven to Hamden. Saw my guys on their cellphones and they took way to long to get from my old apartment to my new one. Positives: friendly, prepared, no damage, reasonable cost."

Yelp

"The movers were good, service good, only advice is make sure they make it clear to you how they are going to charge you for everything because they are not very clear and you will be overcharged if you are not careful."
