Review Analysis

Customer input on O'Briens Moving and Storage Inc. shows strong points such as professional, polite staff, careful handling of belongings, efficient service, precise transparent pricing, and genuinely helpful movers. 202 reviews reveal that 46% of feedback is positive. Clients highlighting these strengths cite careful furniture handling, friendly team members, services delivered as promised, and good value for the cost as reasons for being satisfied. On the other hand, a nearly equal amount of feedback, 46.5%, details negative experiences. Customers most often mention damage to their items, unexpected extra charges, and inadequate communication or follow-up after issues arise. Users report unresolved claims, problems with missing or broken items, and dissatisfaction with remediation processes. Neutral remarks—making up just over 7%—describe moves going smoothly with minor hiccups but nothing exceptional. Compared to many moving companies, O’Briens garners both high praise for on-the-job courtesy and careful work as well as pointed criticism for accountability and customer service after the move. Those seeking reliable professionalism during their actual move are more satisfied than clients needing support to resolve post-move concerns or extra costs.
