Review Analysis

Moving with Mentors Moving & Storage means working with a crew known for speed, professionalism, and careful handling of items. Out of 126 feedback entries analyzed, nearly 89% highlight efficiency, courteous attitudes, communication, punctual arrivals, and gentle treatment of clients' property. Customers appreciate clear quotes, timely updates, and a team that hustles without sacrificing caution. On the downside, a handful of critical input centers on lost or broken belongings, much higher final charges compared to estimates, and difficulty resolving complaints when issues arise. A few cases mention substantial damages and lack of meaningful company response. These negatives are far less frequent compared to most moving companies in the same category. Most clients recommend Mentors for reliable, fast, and careful moves—but those with high-value or fragile items should double-check insurance coverage and written estimates.
