The rating breakdown

9 of the 30 ratings in Google’s published star breakdown for Canada Moving are one or two star.

Worked out from 30 ratings. That is enough to publish but few enough that one more review moves it noticeably, so read it as a hint rather than a measurement.

1-star Google reviewMichelle H.5 years ago
I moved to NB in March. When my things arrive there were 8 bins completely shattered and so were the items in it. There was also one bin missing with all of my motorcycle stuff worth hundreds of dollars…When they dropped it off they told me to contact the office and they would “deal with it”. when I filled the claim I was told it was my fault because I packed myself. I’ve been moving with plastic bins 14 times and never had one break on me like that. It takes a serious level of negligence so end up like they were.

If I could give them a minus that’s what they deserve. Moved Jan 10 2024 to a new home We are still unpacking and finding chaos with just about everything. Dining room antique set buffet hutch and table damaged beyond repair. Antique kitchen cabinet broken beyond repair china broken etc etc. sent 3 different claims into head office for all the good that did Anyway live and learn. If u have anything valuable to move. I wouldn’t advise getting HOYTS MOVING AND STORAGE unless u don’t value ur possessions.

Well let's start with the driver not arriving with tools. Expecting the customer to disassemble stuff when there tools were already packed. I wouldn't recommend them to move anything if they use unprofessional people like that.. don't waist your money here. The amount they charge for a move to pull that bs no good.

Simple job of moving a piano upstairs, job done on multiple occasions in the past with less people in way more difficult staircases. Yet that crew led by a very young and arrogant individual simply refused to do the job asking me if I was …

Absolute nightmare. Extremely unprofessional, not helpful and downright sleezey. Keep looking for a moving company - this is NOT the company to deal with.

We worked with Charles at Hoyts for a move from central Canada to the east. I picked Hoyt's over others because they communicated more professionally and had pre-house inspections at a time when others wouldn't/couldn't due to Covid. For what's a stressful exercise for the customer, it wasn't bad at all. The driver contracted was Todd and he was a straight shooter and very efficient.

Thanks Dean

Moving long distance with Hoyt's went very well, we are very satisfied. We had some art peices that i was concerned about so I sent photos in and got good info on how they would be packed. All went well, no damage to furniture, breakables or art. Great staff and crew to work with.

5-star Google reviewJulie M.2 years ago
Highly recommended. We needed some items shifted within our residence and it was done impeccably. The crew were fantastic - they took great care with everything, were very knowledgeable and friendly. They even took away some packaging for recycling that we would have had to dispose of on our own. Will definitely use Hoyt's again next time we require these types of services.
