Yohannes and Alan showed up right on time, were super efficient. They worked quickly, handled everything with care, and finished the job in just 4 hours.
Negative Move Square Reviews
Heather L., Yelp
They are careless, snapped a foot off of my couch as putting it in the truck. O said he was going to order a new one and have it delivered to me, still waiting for it 18 months later.
Diane S., Yelp
When it got to our new home, 3 of the four sides of both couches had scratches, chips and wood dents. They also broke a glass picture that cannot be replaced.
Matt M., Yelp
The rate discount hardly made sense for losing a guy. My wife and I ended up helping unload the truck. At the end, they tried to overcharge me on hours.
Neutral Move Square Reviews
Linz N., Yelp
Good prices but you get what you pay for in speed and communication. I took on a third of the work running up stairs dozens of times sweating profusely.
