Nathan and Julian arrived right on time, communicated well, protected our walls and doors, and placed furniture carefully in a tight storage space.

Negative TWO MEN AND A TRUCK Reviews

The movers damaged my oak stairs, walls, and furniture. Management did little to replace or pay for repairs.

Google

The company charged from the time movers left the shop until they returned, creating extra travel-time costs beyond the move.

Google

Movers forgot furniture at pickup, then said I would have to pay $195 per hour to transfer it. They also assembled the bed with stripped screws and never returned calls.

Neutral TWO MEN AND A TRUCK Reviews

The disposal was not included as promised, and the office requested another $175. They agreed to handle it after I objected.

Yelp

The movers were nice, but seemed unprepared, brought minimal equipment, and scratched our bed. The service was weaker than past companies.
