Negative Fairprice Movers Reviews
joe m., Yelp
Three movers arrived in a pickup truck without wrapping materials, delaying the job. We were charged almost $500 for overpriced materials and four hours of labor.
Maxine M., Yelp
I was charged for unapproved boxes, my marked boxes were scattered, furniture was scratched, and the final bill was double the quote.

The movers were very fast and professional, but I was not told about the cash discount and paid nearly $30 in credit-card processing fees.
