Negative Global Moving Systems Reviews
Sylvia Beck, Google
The 6% credit-card fee was not explained, the movers went over the estimate, and they left a large hole in my wardrobe. My damage claim received no response.
Gloria Burkett, Google
The team damaged multiple pieces of furniture, walls, floors, and bannisters; one mover dismissed our concerns. The handling felt sloppy and heavy-handed.
Yinka Flores, Google
My Maryland-to-Texas delivery was one month late. After promising a Saturday or Sunday arrival, the company stopped calling, and I could not learn where my belongings were.
Neutral Global Moving Systems Reviews
Jeffery Moore, Google
The estimate was $425–$675, but undisclosed charges raised the bill to $1,137; a table was scratched. The company later issued a partial refund.
Julie Xiong, Google
The move arrived on time, but random extra charges were added and a TV went missing until Eugene resolved the issue.
District 7 -Andrew Geraci, Google
Walls and boxes were damaged, and the truck hit two mailboxes; the owner later repaired the mailboxes.
