2-star Google reviewEric A.5 years ago
While the movers themselves were nice, they did not have appropriate equipment for my move, and as such, the move was 3x more expensive than I was quoted. Owners couldn't care less when I questioned them - very unprofessional and made it seem like they were doing me a favor by letting them move me. Look for other movers.

My response to Chris Santas- Owner- Your team worked from bottom to top and took items that were clearly designated for the dumpster. You know exactly where the mistake happened. Professional movers have verified that your crew failed by using this technique and by not following the designated inventory sheet. Shame on you for trying to justify the error instead of taking responsibility.

The team of guys that came to my house were respectful and very good workers, however, the guy running the business is going to run it in the ground because of his greed. A move that should have cost me about $880 dollars ended up costing …

Thank you for your review, Regina. We understand your concerns and every customer is compliant with our hourly price before we start a job. It is by the hour. This 3.5 hours your referring to was a 6 hour job. Our crews never take longer than 20 minutes to eat their lunch.

I called and spoke with one of the owners, who quoted a price after I told him exactly, in detail, what we needed. I specifically stated we were combining 2 households into one large home. I even went as far as to state what specific …

Hi Kathryn, as owner of The Movers Co I respectfully disagree with your review and I apologize that your move was unsatisfactory. It is our fault that we did not go out to your home for a walk through quote as we are busy and trusted the word of the client.

Mr. Granger, we have spoken several times about your experience. Note you have left a review on the wrong google page and have not taken into account that we charge from the time we leave our warehouse, until the time we are projected to get back to our warehouse based on gps time without traffic.

Just went through my second move with this company. They once again exceeded my expectations. They were professional, quick, and able to make sure everyone was calm in the difficult process that moving can be. Will use them again!
