Negative Meathead Movers Reviews
Dechamp189, Google
The movers were great, but the quote was very low and the cost doubled. My one-bedroom move into two storage units was extremely overpriced.
T P, Google
My TV was damaged beyond repair. After weeks of dealing with corporate, they offered 50% of the price I paid. Won’t be using them again.
Yelp
The truck blocked most of the street and sidewalk without cones. I saw the crew argue with a neighbor, then leave by doing a burnout.
Neutral Meathead Movers Reviews
Yelp
The movers were friendly and efficient, on time, and almost everything arrived in good condition. A treasured piece of art disappeared during the move and was never found.
Yelp
They were prompt, professional, quick, and handled my things well. I felt overcharged because a small one-bedroom move was scheduled across two days with an overnight hotel stay.
Yelp
The movers were excellent: fast, diligent, and careful. The packers left cabinets and garage items unpacked, and a promised partial refund never arrived.
