1-star Google reviewDan L.Edited 11 months ago
Beware. I used this company for packing and moving and they were so careless with my things. It caused damage. Some examples: They put packaging tape directly on my nice hardwood furniture, which tore off the finish. They threw my used toilet brush into a box with my clothes. Nothing was wrapped, just a bare toilet brush thrown in with my other stuff. I provided a wardrobe box, but they didn't put most of my dress clothes in it. Instead they threw my dress clothes in a heap in a large box.

Save yourselves the time/money because you’re given one price when you call for a quote then get charged triple that amount when they provide you with the service. If you’re given a 5 hours service prepare to pay for 12 hours labor.

Took 12 hours to move a 2 bedroom apartment to a new apartment which was located less than half mile away. Both apartments are off of the same street. They milk it till they got their 12 hours.

We just moved out of our two bedroom apt. Dmitriy, Dmitriy and Anton did an amazing job! Super professional, arrived on time, shrink wrapped basically everything and took really good care of our items. They were courteous, efficient and super competent. Brave movers provided more competitive pricing too and Daniel, the manager is always responsive. Five stars all around!

Sam & Alex were absolutely amazing. The entire experience from the first phone call to the last box delivered and unloaded was fantastic. My husband and I moved from Boston to Philly and these guys helped tremendously. Our move wouldn’t have been so easy and streamlined without Brave Movers. The team is extremely efficient, keeps you updated on timings, very reasonable price point, don’t complain about climbing stairs, place items where you tell them, package large electronics, ensure safety of items of during the…

5-star Google reviewNancy M.3 years ago
I recently hired Brave Movers to handle my move from the Boston area to South Carolina. Almost from my first contact with Daniel, I knew I wanted to do business with these guys. First of all, they were the only company (out of the 6 I contacted) that would come to my place to give me an estimate. Some reasons I would hire these guys again without hesitation: very responsive and communicative; they are totally focused on you/your move without distractions of handling multiple moves at the same time; they gave me an…

5-star Google reviewMarrena L.2 years ago
Brave Movers were absolutely amazing to work with. It ended up costing me far less than I was expecting, because they did everything so quickly (but carefully and very professionally). I hired them because I have some very fragile antique furniture with sentimental value. Not one break or scratch, including all my packed porcelain ornaments and they stuff they packed for me--my enormous wall mirror, my large-screen television, and all my framed pictures.
