We moved from Boston to NYC at a flat rate several hundred dollars below other quotes; the professional movers treated our items with care.
Negative Anton's Movers Reviews
The crew forced my king mattress through a tiny door instead of using the agreed rope hoist, causing tears and internal coil damage.
Ryan C., Yelp
Anton’s raised our quote by $2,000 one day before the move; the truck still lacked space, leaving about two-thirds of our storage unit behind.
K S., Yelp
Movers scratched my wood dining table, then customer service sent me to the mover and the supervisor hung up twice.
Neutral Anton's Movers Reviews
Booking was easy and the team arrived on time, but the move took over nine hours instead of six to seven; boxes were misplaced, and the couch and walls were damaged.
The crew was efficient, professional, and on time, but a lamp broke and my piano keyboard was chipped.
