We moved from MD to CA. They packed everything well, and the price is very reasonable.
Negative Silver Star Moving and Storage Reviews
Terrible experience. They quoted me $300 a month for storage fees and I received an invoice 1.5 weeks later for $580. This was in addition to the original invoice.
They quoted me around two grand. On the moving date, they said the estimate was not correct and the new estimate was $6,500.
Miggy U., Yelp
I had this company move my house and some of my stuff went missing. The movers was very unprofessional, and the supervisor was very rude.
Neutral Silver Star Moving and Storage Reviews

5 stars for the movers, always very friendly and professional. Nelson and Sean get a big thumbs up. 2 stars for the office staff. They got my move date wrong twice, causing stress.

I didn't hire Silver Star, but they called every day multiple times after I requested quotes, even after my moving date had passed.
