DOT #: 2878240

3006 South 3rd Street, Louisville, KY 40208 US

Moving with Bellhop delivers standout service for many, but does not come without its risks. After reviewing 14 customer experiences, half of the input praised quick, efficient moves, professional teams, clear communication, and fair pricing. Bellhop offers notable value compared to other movers, earning repeated recommendations. Despite these strengths, many customers dealt with late arrivals, canceled appointments, damaged items, and inconsistent scheduling. Some described issues with equipment, property damage, and delays. Bellhopโ€™s pricing and friendly staff impress, but reliability and care fall short for a significant portion of customers. Compared to other moving companies, Bellhopโ€™s affordability stands out, yet its performance can be inconsistent.

moveBuddha logo iconrating starstarstarstarstar4.86 / 5

DOT #: 2527384

Years in Business: 20

3951 Bardstown Road, Louisville, KY 40218 US

Customers regularly rave about Two Men and a Truckโ€™s polite, professional staff and efficient moves. Nearly 80% of 269 reviews reflect positive feedback highlighting careful handling, swift service, and clear communication from both movers and office teams. Many describe their belongings arriving safely, moves happening faster than expected, and prices being as quoted. Movers often go the extra mile with courtesy, responsiveness, and attention to detail, such as wrapping furniture or accommodating unique needs. On the flip side, about one in five customers express frustration chiefly over damaged items and property, bills exceeding estimates, and late arrivals. Trouble with costly moves, slow claims, or lack of clear resolution is common for detractors. Compared to other moving companies, Two Men and a Truck stands out for reliability and service attitude, but inconsistency in damage control and cost transparency remains a weak point. Thorough communication and fair billing set expectations, while minimizing damages could boost trust. Most customers recommend them, but those most dissatisfied do so for significant financial or property loss.
