Negative Heart Moving Reviews
"They left almost immediately without helping assemble all my furniture after getting their tips. I also couldn't find a box of my shoes worth about $200. I called but they said nothing was found."
"Their moving team kept pressuring me for a higher tip. One item was melted after following instructions from a mover, and I couldn't reach anyone afterward to resolve my complaint."
"The movers were in a hurry to leave and didn’t help assemble all furniture. I later noticed a missing box. When I called, they denied finding anything."
Neutral Heart Moving Reviews
"Heart is efficient and the movers themselves were nice if you need to move boxes that don't contain anything fragile. Artwork was damaged and I was only partially compensated despite assurances. Would not use them again."
