Negative Viking Moving Services, Inc. Reviews
Yelp
"Highly disappointing, unethical & disrespectful - The crew left huge holes in walls, broke furniture, & left belongings behind. Taran ignored issues. Move in day was slightly better but furniture arrived broken beyond repair with no disclosure."
"Viking Movers lost 3 boxes of our belongings 2 years ago, and despite promises to 'look for them', they have done nothing. Their labeling practices are sloppy, and since losing our belongings, they've been completely unresponsive and unhelpful."
Yelp
"My husband and I needed to move to Texas. Viking told us our furniture would arrive in a couple days. It's been 3.5 weeks. Every time we call, we get told a different thing. Do not use this company."
Neutral Viking Moving Services, Inc. Reviews
"Taran was reasonably responsible, Giovanni and his team efficient and flexible, and the price was fair. But after reporting damage outside the 15-day policy they wouldn’t honor the claim. I wasn't reminded the deadline was so strict."
Yelp
"Team was efficient and flexible, but I was unaware of the time sensitive nature of damage claims and didn't get a reminder. Claim not honored after 15 days. Disappointed by uncommunicated policy timeline."
