Negative Emerald Moving & Storage Reviews
Dectoor A., Yelp
"Terrible customer service after you sign a contract which means they got their cut and it is between you and 3rd party movers they outsource to. Not truthful when asked and they said yes they use their own trucks and employees to do actual shipping. Be careful."
Yelp
"Bait and switch artists. Hook you in on the front and then sell you to a third party hauler that upcharges you and handles your belongings poorly. I had water damage and over $3,000 in lost possessions."
Yelp
"Terrible service. 70% items damaged in process including tvs and over extended process more than 3 weeks. And has in contract they pay Pennies on the dollar for fanged items. Find a different company"
