Negative Tri-Star Moving Reviews
Brijae Cotton, Google
The movers never arrived during the confirmed arrival window. After three hours without resolution, I booked another moving company.
Tiffany Stott, Google
The movers broke a brand new table, sound bar, and dresser, and dented my refrigerator. The eight-hour job was extremely disappointing.
Brandi Miller, Google
I was charged for a lunch break and an unused fitness-equipment surcharge. The movers damaged my suede sofa by dragging it against the door frame.
Neutral Tri-Star Moving Reviews
Brittany Peavy, Google
The service was okay. One mover arrived 30–45 minutes late, another vaped inside, and none used floor or shoe covers. Nothing was damaged, but I’ll likely choose another service.
Johanna Singer, Google
They were quick, efficient, friendly, and on time, but insufficient wrapping led to a deeply scratched table leaf and omitted kitchen-sink items.
Leigh Beauchamp, Google
The crew arrived about 90 minutes late but called ahead. I found a few small furniture nicks, and uncharged tools slowed the work.
