Wow, folks! Checkout Arch Moving "Company's" response Dr. Destiny Shanks-Reddick's other review. It won't allow me to reply to their PATHETIC RESPONSE, so I had to use my other profile. WHAT A JOKE and lack of accountability. BEFORE YOU USE THEM, PLEASE check this company out with the Better Business Bureau and YELP. Customers who got taken advantage of by this company (they choose certain customers) ALL have similar stories! Don't let that be you! Dear Arch Moving "Company", Your response to Dr.

Good Morning, Unfortunately, sending additional workers does increase the hourly rate, which was not something you were comfortable with. So sending the additional workers earlier would not have changed the outstanding amount owed. Thank you.

Beware: Nightmare Moving Experience with Arch Moving Our move with Arch Moving turned into a harrowing ordeal that I wouldn't wish upon anyone. From the onset, it was clear that things were headed in the wrong direction. We had a tight schedule, needing to vacate our previous house on the same day we closed on our new one. However, the estimate provided was significantly lower than the actual requirements, and the absence of an in-person evaluation for truck needs led to disastrous consequences.

I would not recommend Arch moving for anyone that has tight spaces or difficult to move items. We hired mover for our daughter that lives alone. She had a large sectional sofa that had gotten into her apt through a tight staircase yet the movers could not figure out how to get it out of the apt after trying for over 90 minutes and left her stuck with moving it on her own. Their rationale was getting something in is different than getting it out Never heard that but ??

I went with arch moving because they had a good price and are local. When possible I like to keep it in the community. That may have been a mistake. The movers themselves were fine. They lost my personal dolly, left the plastic wrap on the floor in my apartment, and didn't assemble most of what they took apart to move. I can manage that. But they did break my 75 in tv. When going through the claims process. I'm getting 30 dollars for it.

Thank you for your feedback. Per Missouri Department of Transportation requirements, all moving companies in the state provide standard coverage of $0.60 per pound, per item unless customers elect supplemental coverage. In your case, that resulted in $30 for the television.

Updating my review March 19, 2025: We just went into our storage unit after 4 months only to discovered that Phillip and Darrion threw our furniture and boxes into the storage unit. I have broken glass, broken furniture, and priceless items tossed into this storage unit like it was trash. They piled everything at the very edge of the storage unit door and we could barely open it. I am extremely disappointed and saddened by the lack of care.

Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re thrilled to hear that Phillip and Darrion provided such outstanding service and made your first move a smooth and stress-free experience.

We had three guys move our two bedroom apartment to a house less than two miles away. When they were finished they asked us to leave a review within "15 minutes" of them finishing because it "affects their bonuses." My fiance left them a 5 star review because, other than all of them avoiding carrying our mattress to the third floor we originally thought they did a decent job. The longer we've had to review our furniture we continue to find more marks and small breaks. Nearly every piece of furniture has a mark.

Your review: ⭐☆☆ I had high expectations for Arch Moving Service, given the positive reviews and the promises on their website. Unfortunately, my experience was anything but satisfactory. We chose Arch for our move on February 28, 2025, primarily due to my husband's recent back injury, trusting their advertised reliability. To our dismay, the movers who arrived informed us that one of the movers were still in training and seemed inexperienced.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We sincerely regret that your experience did not meet your expectations. We want to clarify that during your move, we did stop the clock to address the concerns you raised.

2-star Google reviewBrett H.a year ago
My experience with Arch Moving was deeply frustrating and disappointing. The movers they sent were clearly young, inexperienced, and unqualified for the job. Two of them couldn’t have been older than 18, and one was still in training. Their lack of skill and care resulted in significant damage: my hardwood floors were gouged, my ceiling was punctured, and my mattress was dragged on the ground without covering, leaving it filthy and unusable.
Reply from the business

Hello Brett, I’m hoping that I can address your concerns here once again. Our movers are all taken through a training program prior to starting, none of our drivers are below the age of 18.

If I could give 10 stars I would! From the initial quote to the periodic updates leading to my move date everyone was professional and efficient. On moving day Antonio K and Chris W showed up early! Introduced themselves and got to work. No fooling around or slacking. Those men put in work!! Got me moved out of my old home into the new on in 5-hours. And NOT ONE casualty to any of my belongings! I highly recommend this company and these two gentlemen in particular!

Arch Moving Review Two days ago, my wife and I hired Arch Moving to unload our 3 bedroom, 2 bath, 26-inch moving U-Haul truck into a 10x20 storage unit. The team, consisting of Antwan and Charles, arrived promptly and wasted no time getting to work. They completed the job in just 3 hours, showcasing impressive efficiency. Respectful and Careful Movers Antwan and Charles were incredibly kind, caring, and respectful throughout the process.

A Grateful Review for Arch Moving — Raekwon, Darryl, and Israel — True Professionals with Heart Moving my elderly mom from her spacious 3-bedroom condo into a cozy 1-bedroom independent living apartment was supposed to be a fairly simple transition—we were only bringing a portion of her belongings. But as moves often go, it turned out to be much more complex than expected. In the midst of sorting and packing, some of the remaining belongings created an unintentional trip hazard.

Kitty, thank you so much for sharing this incredibly moving and thoughtful review. Reading your words was a powerful reminder of why we do what we do. Raekwon, Darryl, and Israel are exactly the kind of team members we’re proud to have representing Arch Moving—professional, compassionate, and truly…
