Negative Bellhop Moving Reviews

"The other mover threw one of my side tables on a dolly carelessly and broke the top and bottom, he did not seem to care that he damaged someones personal property. I currently have a damage claim open... also our front door is damaged."
Katie Dobbins, Google
"We have had an absolutely horrific experience with this company. We hired them to have 4 movers plus driver for 6 hours, we ended up with 3 movers and a driver for about 3 hours. What we ended up with is extensive damages to BOTH homes and our furniture."
Peter Kaples, Google
"Worst experience ever! No communication ever, even tho the moves were scheduled days in advance our movers were 2 1/2 hrs late. No response from bellHop at all. Labors just showed up and said they never got the job till 1:45."
Neutral Bellhop Moving Reviews
Devon McCarroll, Google
"The movers who assisted were great. Not enough arrived to help so we had to physically move most of my things up and down my stairs-only apartment. Follow up with company has been nonexistent. Wouldn’t recommend."
Miranda C, Google
"Got a great groupon deal. But they broke my lamp and made scratches on the wall which I noticed after they'd left. So the job got done, but damages were made."
Daniel Perez, Google
"Used Bellhop for a local move and I had a mixed experience. They showed up on time and made very quick efficient work of my items and furniture with minimal nicks/bumps on the walls of the apartment. However, towards the end of the move the team lead confirmed with the rest of the crew if they had gotten everything out of the truck, to which the crew had said yes. A couple minutes after they had left I realized through the clutter that I was missing key pieces to assembling some of my furniture, which were by no means small. I called the team lead and he had confirmed that the truck was empty, so I went to check my old place and double checked my new place and they were nowhere to be found. In the middle of filing a claim/complaint a couple days later with Bellhop I was contacted by the owner of the moving truck (not affiliated with Bellhop) to set up a time and place for me to get those items since they actually were still in the truck. Up until finding out some of my items were missing my review would have been 5 stars. I’m not certain I will be using Bellhop again, but if I do I’ll likely have to check behind the movers (which I’d rather not do since I know it’s best to stay out of their way to let them work efficiently)."
