The pricing was transparent without any hidden charges from the quote. Would definitely hire Oz for my next move!
Yelp
Today I moved with Oz. I had the pleasure of working with Lamont Tatum and Chris A. in my move from Queens NY to Woodbridge NJ. They were prompt. They were efficient. They were personable and respectful.
The movers were helpful and moved my stuff from storage and house seamlessly. Highly recommend!
Negative Oz Moving & Storage, Inc. Reviews
They roughly handled our boxes, damaged several furniture items (couch, stools, lamps) and damaged the buildings (broken hallway lamp and scratched walls).
They turned aggressive when we complained about the damage on the day of the move. We've reached out to Oz directly to deal with the damages.
Yelp
Over half of our furniture pieces were damaged in one way or another and it's just heart breaking to see pieces you've invested time and money in be manhandled with the strict minimum of precaution.
