"The crew damaged a lamp, glass desk, and walls. Slow, unprofessional, insurance claim took months. Only $63 reimbursed after $492 in damages. Will never recommend them again."
"What happened with me is basically theft by cheating. Not satisfied at all. Two of three workers did all the work, extra charges for things not used, job time extended unnecessarily."

"Service quality was good, but my job was very small and I had to pay for 4 hours ($800) for thirty minutes of work. Turns out they’re not local to me."
Yelp
"Used their services to move within the same building. They arrived on time, but didn’t wrap the furniture and hurried a bit. The 3-hour minimum for a small job felt excessive."
Yelp
"The movers arrived on time, worked hard, and were very careful. Unfortunately, the truck wasn’t large enough, so we had to make another trip ourselves: extra costs and inconvenience."
