Review Analysis

High praise for Road Runner Moving & Storage centers on their swift, courteous movers and seamless moving process. Over half of feedback highlights staff professionalism, efficiency, timeliness, careful handling of belongings, and helpful attitudes, setting a standard many other movers struggle to match. Customers frequently mention quick turnaround, friendly interactions, and attentive service. On the other hand, nearly as many complaints call out property damage, inconsistent communication, and unexpected charges. Some customers reported unresolved damage claims, lost or mishandled items, and issues tracking down staff after problems occurred. Negative experiences often note significant costs, broken items, lack of accountability, and ignored calls or emails. Taken together, feedback reflects that while many customers enjoyed a stress-free moving day and respectful crew, others faced damages and poor follow-up that overshadowed their move. Compared to similar companies, Road Runner stands out for polite staff and speed but falls short in reliability and post-move accountability.
