A seamless experience from start to finish! Before our moving day even happened, they were very quick to respond to communication and changes we made to the moving day... The cost was straightforward and no last minute charges or changes.
Negative Safe Responsible Movers Reviews
Kathy H., Yelp
Tore wires off the side of my house with truck, looked at me and said 'oops.' Tore screen door, initially denied then said it was 'irrelevant' and 'twenty dollars to fix'; damaged wall and never acknowledged.
I hired these people based on good reviews, and honestly it was not great. I would not recommend. They manhandled my stuff, scraped my new hardwood floors, and broke a few items.
Yelp
I read all these great reviews so I called, and then sent an email as directed. Called again. have not heard back.
