Review Analysis

Fast moves and friendly attitudes set Bellhop Moving apart, with 163 feedback responses showing 69% positive and 30% negative experiences. Customers highlight the company’s quick-moving teams, professional and approachable staff, and the convenience of straightforward booking—qualities often missing from larger movers. Many found the service easy to use and appreciated clear communication, with several reporting moves done faster than estimated. On the downside, dissatisfied customers most frequently point to property damage, citing broken or scratched furniture and poor packing techniques. Complaints also reference a lack of experience among movers and occasional delays or no-shows. While helpful for simple moves and tight timelines, the service sometimes falls short on handling fragile or valuable items, losing ground to competitors with more rigorous training and consistent reliability.
