Review Analysis

Customers rave about efficient service, skilled and friendly movers, and a worry-free moving process. Across 472 reviews, 72.9% reflected positive experiences. Top feedback highlights polite staff, quick moves, consistent communication, and careful handling of belongings. Many noted how the team's professionalism compared favorably to other movers, with same-day or next-day bookings and stress-free coordination frequently cited. On the downside, clients often ran into much higher costs than expected, surprise fees, and at times, late or missed appointments. These pricing and reliability issues were the main complaints, impacting trust. Other companies in the industry tend to offer more transparent estimates but might lack the responsiveness and courtesy College Hunks delivers. Nearly three-fourths of customer input credits College Hunks with taking the hassle out of moving—though people should clarify quotes and confirm fees to avoid sticker shock.
