Analyzing 291 pieces of feedback, about 71% of customers detailed positive experiences, often highlighting polite movers, efficient teamwork, and careful attention to property.

Still, nearly 28% of input describes issues such as damaged belongings, unfriendly or inattentive staff, and difficulties reaching the company for follow-up or claims—complaints that are more frequent here than with some top-rated national competitors. While most customers praise the team's courteous attitude and work ethic, a notable share express frustration with damage claims being unresolved or interactions that felt disrespectful. Sheridan Brothers excels at delivering prompt and friendly moves, but reliability around damage handling and communication would improve customer trust.
