We had to move up our moving date at the last minute, and they accommodated us without an issue. Not one thing was damaged or broken.
Negative Shleppers Moving & Storage Reviews

A piece fell off some furniture. I saw the item come out of the truck unwrapped. I called shortly after, but they did not help me look in the truck.
Yelp
I booked them because they gave me a good quote; they then charged $3,000 more after packing the truck. Several pieces arrived damaged, including my vintage bar.

Things were missing and things were broken. The team was slow and unresponsive. Boxes were left unattended on the sidewalk and arrived smashed and damaged.

Shawn Campos, Google
Called to get an estimate and they made this more complicated than it had to be. Four other moving companies helped immediately.
Sabrina MzPiink, Google
Barry was professional and arrived on time, his teammate was friendly and courteous. They carefully wrapped my exercise equipment. I will update my rating when my items arrive.
Tamara Herz, Google
We had a great experience prior to the move with pricing and scheduling. But the movers damaged flooring and furniture, and months later the insurance offer did not cover one-fifth of the estimate.
