Negative Modern Moving Reviews
Wendy Lipps, Google
We had three pieces that were damaged. Our crew leader took photos, but nothing has come of that. That was 4 weeks ago, and I've heard nothing. I've called 5 times, and no one has returned my call.
Mark Thacker, Google
One of the movers accidentally put a large dent in our wall. Weeks passed without hearing anything, so I tried to call. I left a text message and a voicemail with no response.
Wendy Pollard, Google
Sam canceled and didn't even have the courtesy to even call me and tell me he not coming. Now I'm waiting on another company and hoping they show up.

Our summary of Modern Moving
Fast hands, careful moves, and fair prices define Modern Moving’s strongest customer feedback. Across 230 reviews, 223 were positive, or 97.0%. Customers praise affordable rates, respectful treatment of property, careful wrapping, quick responses, and moves finished ahead of schedule. Compared with other movers, many customers say Modern Moving charged less, matched estimates, and completed jobs faster than expected. The six negative entries, 2.6%, point to a serious service gap: damage claims and wall repairs often received no response after repeated calls. Other customers reported canceled or missing crews with little notice. One 3-star account, 0.4%, praised polite movers but reported damaged items and delayed follow-up, showing that support after a problem needs the same care as the move itself.
