"They quoted 4 hours and it took over 6. Damaged walls and baseboards. Intentionally left a hinge off my refrigerator door without telling me. Broke the ice maker. No follow-up call at all. Wouldn't recommend."
Yelp
"Very simple move of ONE item. Had to pay for 3 hours of service to go 18 miles in Austin. Mover stated 'we didn't drop it or break anything'. I do not recommend them and would never use them again."
Neutral Firefighting's Finest Moving & Storage Reviews
"The first set of movers were wonderful. The second run had a leader that did not seem to care. All mattresses were out in one room they didn’t bring all of one bed left the vases at old house."
"My first move with them was AWESOME. My recent move, not so much. Showed up at wrong house, took too long loading, caused two trips instead of one. Crew unloaded quickly by throwing items everywhere. Gave a small discount."
"They arrived on time and handled things very well. My furniture was well wrapped and carefully moved. It all took longer than I expected and so cost more than I expected, but they did work hard and well."
