Negative Anton's Movers Reviews

Jorge G., Yelp

"Their movers scratched my expensive wood dining table by putting moving boxes on top, then carelessly taking them off. When I called to complain, the representative told me to deal with the mover myself."

Google

"Hard to understand all the positive reviews...they broke our TV and offered only $600 for a $1500 TV. We’ve found other items damaged...They investigate and deny issues—hope this honest review helps."

Google

"After discovering multiple items damaged to the extent they are unusable, and spending 6 weeks trying to get any sort of help, one star is being generous. Their customer service is atrocious...I wouldn't recommend ANYONE..."
