Negative Premium Movers Inc. Reviews

"The two men who showed up knew they were charging by the hour, so they proceeded to move as slow as possible. Total was DOUBLE what I was quoted. Management never called back. Do not use!!"
Yelp
"Packing was incompetent. Non-breakable items thrown in boxes at random. Several items arrived broken. I still have not found silverware and other essentials. Gave a deceptive oral bid. Hire someone else."
Yelp
"They dropped a valuable piece of furniture and claimed the insurance would cover it. Settlement was 1% of item's cost. Never using this company again—they just covered their own ass."
