The movers were very careful with moving my household items. All of the movers were very kind and helpful. They used unique moving strategies to prevent them from bumping into the walls.

They helped disassemble tables/beds, pad and shrink wrap furniture, go up and down multiple flights of stairs and reassemble all our furniture without getting a single scratch on any of our stuff.

Lenny S., Yelp

They helped disassemble tables/beds, pad and shrink wrap furniture, go up and down multiple flights of stairs and reassemble all our furniture without getting a single scratch on any of our stuff.

Lynda W., Yelp

My estimate was reasonable and fair and my move was complete in just 2 and a half hours! They are so efficient that they make moving look easy.

Negative Big Boys Moving Reviews

Martha P., Yelp

They were an hour and a half late. Charged us double the amount they quoted us for. And when it came down to it my children and husband had to help load and unload the truck.

N M., Yelp

The owner/Mike helped us with our move and he was extremely rude to me and my husband. He argued with us and was very unprofessional.

Eric M., Yelp

Broke our expensive dining room table. Then said they'd get it professionally fixed and brought it back with uneven legs. The guys took forever to wrap things as well.

Neutral Big Boys Moving Reviews

Donna G., Yelp

Tim did not explain my cost options (3 hr min w/ 2 guys Vs 4 hr min w/ 3 guys) to ensure I understood the cost difference as a return customer. Also I was not offered my senior discount.

Richard F., Yelp

The two elderly gentlemen were very efficient and took extra care of our household items, the younger guys rushed damaging my walls in the stairwell and some of the furniture.
