In their own words
I hired Badger Brothers moving about 3 weeks ago to move me out of an apartment to another apartment in the same complex. DO NOT HIRE THEM!! Here are the reasons why. In the beginning, they were moving very slow. "Milking the clock" to increase their time, hence increasing your bill. One of the crew members was very inexperienced. Didn't know what to do! He BROKE MY OFFICE CHAIR; I have a 2-drawer file cabinet and he placed the drawers facing the wall; how did he think I was going to open the drawers???
The movers themselves were polite and friendly. I was given an estimate for three guys one truck $3000 halfway through the move. They recommended for safety a second truck and two more guys, and I was reassured. This was not gonna cost me more money and then it would take less time. I have a 3300 square-foot house all they had to do was move the furniture out. I did all the packing of boxes. Somehow this turned into a 12 1/2 hour job and doubled in price.
The crew we had was very kind but very inexperienced young men. They damaged our buffet table (an heirloom passed down in the family), our high top table, and the wall in our new apartment. They were honest about the damages and mentioned …
In my opinion, unfortunately my son hired them to move us from Racine County to Milwaukee County for relocation. While the two movers might have put our belongings into the truck properly, the way they put it into our storage unit is …
Hi Colleen, I'm so sorry to hear this feedback! We've tried reaching out several times, and we'd still love the opportunity to make things right. It can be difficult to fit everything into a storage unit, but the end result should always be neat and organized.
A lot of my things were damaged from them. They put tape across my fireplace which later damaged the paint among other things.
I'm so sorry to hear this! We've called every Michael R we've moved over the past several months, and they were all thrilled with the service they received. I'm guessing your reservation was under a different name. While our damage rate is … More

In their own words
They guys were incredible. Honestly, the best hands down. From an easy to follow scheduling and estimate to a flawless execution of our move, from the first called I knew we were in good hands. Lashawn lead our moving team so well but Roman and Nathan didn’t even need that much guidance. They collaborated well, hustled, were kind and so friendly and easy to talk to. Felt like family! I truly cannot speak highly enough of these young men.
Mike, Houston, and Edward were great! They moved our entire house in about 4 1/2 hours. They were efficient, careful, and quick. Very happy with our move.
Everything was excellent. Bryan was the gentleman I talked to when calling Badger Movers for information and to schedule the move. He was very informative, helpful, and answered all of my questions. He promptly emailed me a document with …
Badger Brothers Moving came highly recommended to us by friends who had used you guys to move their daughter. What we did not know is that we were literally going to get the dream team of movers! Adam, Brennan, Dom, Ayden and Owen were nothing short of amazing! They worked their hardest on a hot and humid day with zero complaints. In fact, majority of the time they were all smiling, laughing and getting along so well so it truly seems like they’ve been working together for years.
