Positive Mentors Moving & Storage Reviews
Lexi Salberg, Google
"Mentors Moving Company made our move stress-free and seamless! The team was professional, efficient, and handled all our belongings with great care. Their attention to detail and friendly service truly stood out. I highly recommend them!"
Yelp
"The entire move was orchestrated from Florida and Daniel responded to every email, text and phone call in a timely and professional manner. Everything was handled with loving care; nothing was broken or damaged. Highly recommend Dignity Moving Company."

"Our movers arrived at my storage unit before I did. They were pleasant, professional, efficient, and everything was loaded within the 3-hour minimum. When I reached my destination 1200 miles away, everything in the truck was mostly in the same place."
Negative Mentors Moving & Storage Reviews
Yelp
"We have moved over 12 times in our life and this company did the worst job packing, storing and re-delivering our belongings. Broken and damaged items. Brand new surfboard was ruined. The list is getting longer as we unpack."
Yelp
"I was quoted 1500 for my move. They moved my things, then at my new residence told me it was 3200 dollars. No one will get back to me and they just give me numbers to speak to 'someone higher.' Would not recommend."
Yelp
"Once we paid them, the responsiveness ceased and the services were substantially less than promised. Furniture experienced significant heat related damage, crew for unloading was too small, and issues with claim settlement remain unresolved."
Neutral Mentors Moving & Storage Reviews

"While nothing was broken, the job wasn't really finished. I think they tried to take advantage by milking the clock. Things were going ok, but I ended up doing some of the work myself to keep within budget."
