Positive Pearson Moving and Storage Reviews
"We recently had the pleasure of using Pearson Moving Company for our move into our new house, and we couldn't be happier with the service they provided. From start to finish, the experience was seamless, professional, and stress-free."
"The entire process from booking to moving was stellar. Couldn’t have been happier with the movers. They carefully wrapped and blanketed my furniture. Never did they assume where anything went and always asked us where it should be placed. Highly recommend."
"My experience with Pearson Moving was 5 star because of fair pricing, and good and responsive communication and flexibility with Bryan in scheduling. The movers that showed up did great work with what was supposed to be a 9 hour day turning out to be a 12 hour day. They were professional, polite, congenial, responsive, flexible and efficient."
Negative Pearson Moving and Storage Reviews
Yelp
"Though the furniture was wrapped, we ended up with multiple pieces of furniture with chipped and gouged legs. Our stainless steel fridge door now has a noticeable dent. Our fabric sofa was torn. Reimbursed only a small amount without adequate repair."
Yelp
"Pearson Moving did $6,400 worth of damage and refused to take responsibility. Our custom couch was destroyed, wood furniture chipped. Claims were denied. Owner did not help."
"A week after move-in we discovered our 65 inch TV had a huge crack. Claim resulted in $27 refund. No offer of extra insurance before move. Not recommending this company."
Neutral Pearson Moving and Storage Reviews
"The scheduling process was easy and Brian was helpful, but the move was disappointing—two broken items including a glass lamp left in the driveway, issues with item assembly, and it took longer (over 5 hours for less items)."
"Second time booking with Pearson Moving, staff is nice and the movers were amazing both times. I gave 3 stars because I was misquoted both times and ended up paying way more than the quote I was provided."
