Negative Bellhop Moving Reviews
Yelp
The move was rescheduled, but the promised 25% discount was not applied. The move itself went well, though the billing issue remained.
Yelp
The movers damaged drywall, door frames and furniture. Customer service offered only half the repair costs, and communication was difficult.
Yelp
Only two of three scheduled movers arrived, the job took longer, and I was billed for the extra time despite calling during the move.
Neutral Bellhop Moving Reviews
Scott Simcox, Google
The truck was too small, two movers were rude, and the team left items behind. Tayler Dupler was professional and worked hard.
Andrew Holztrager, Google
The moving team was great, but I was overcharged $140. Bellhop said it would issue a refund.
kim hood, Google
They miscalculated the job size and changed the price three times.
