Review Analysis
Silver Star Moving and Storage shines in customer feedback for prompt, professional, and efficient service. Out of 323 reviews, 85% praised courteous movers, attentive care for belongings, and swift completion of jobs, highlighting organized, communicative staff and careful handling of property. Customers found booking simple and were impressed by the team’s speed and professionalism.
Many recognized the company’s ability to reduce stress on moving day, often noting flawless transitions and reliable service that outperforms industry standards. Others commended their good communication and the skill with which they managed challenging or last-minute moves. Some users also appreciated clear pricing, though a few received prices above the industry average but felt the quality justified the cost. In contrast, 14% of feedback revealed sharp issues: customers cited unexpected charges, large discrepancies from initial estimates, unexplained fees, slow claims resolution, and cases of property damage or loss. Several found it hard to reach the office after their move or had trouble obtaining insurance settlements. Missing or damaged items and communication breakdowns stood out among complaints. Neutral feedback, though rare, pointed to excellent movers but inconsistent office processes such as schedule mix-ups and repeated calls. Silver Star consistently earns high marks for speed and moving expertise, but, like some competitors, struggles with transparent billing and reliable administration.
