Negative Man With A Van Reviews

Google

"Stay away from this place - they will damage your items and refuse to compensate you. A lot of our furniture was damaged in the move because they did not properly prep it before putting it in the truck. Management has done nothing."

Google

"I moved in June, and the experience with Man with a Van was so traumatizing I’ve just now recovered to write this review. They sent too small a van for my move and unapologetically charged me for additional expenses due to their miscalculation."

Google

"They broke the floor and after I mentioned about the damage on the floor they straight out denied it. Most of my furnitures were slightly damaged, with some completely broken. Customer service has not responded after a month."

Neutral Man With A Van Reviews

Yelp

"Had 3 guys help me move my apt and my husbands apt. The guys were pretty helpful during the move especially with the TV stand and couch. The move took at least 6 hours which made the price go a little over our moving budget."

Yelp

"Everything was okay except that I made it clear not to disconnect wires from the electronics as it's too hard to figure out what goes to what. He couldn't do that with every electronic and that's understandable. Price was fair."

Yelp

"Jury still out. I had some problems but Paul reached out to me directly and he promises to make it right. I appreciate him contacting me."
