We met Lonnie and Keyvon yesterday. They are both extremely polite, helpful and thorough! They really helped remove the stress from our move! We would highly recommend them!
Negative Leaders Moving & Storage Co. Reviews
Yelp
The movers were fast and efficient, but not careful. When loading the truck, they ruined a wall and the rail on the basement steps. They chipped a door, scratched furniture, and left several things behind.
Yelp
They showed up 2.5 hours after the moving window. Their lateness led to rushing and cutting corners, and they severely damaged my 1947 Heywood Wakefield furniture.
Yelp
We discovered one large box and our glass wall fireplace were missing. This was especially upsetting because the box contained irreplaceable items.
Neutral Leaders Moving & Storage Co. Reviews
Yelp
They got everything in without any damage I've seen. My weird IKEA furniture confused them a bit, but we eventually got it together. The pricing system was confusing.
Yelp
The crew was friendly and efficient, but they left an entire unpacked cupboard and a garage full of miscellaneous stuff. I had to do more packing after an expensive local move.
Yelp
The crew arrived on time and packed efficiently, but boxes were unlabeled, furniture had limited protection, and floor mats were not used.
