Tyler is extremely unprofessional. The company overcharged someone by several hundred dollars. When she asked for a refund, he swore at her and called her names. He gave a partial refund after battling her for a week and a half. She has proof of what the total cost should have been in the form of communication with employees. Now, he is being deceitful and saying that he gave her a refund, despite it being only a partial one.

This was my second time hiring this moving company. My first experience went smoothly, and I had no issues paying my invoice or working with the company. Unfortunately, this experience was very different. I had concerns about the final billing compared to my understanding of the estimate and how the hourly charges were explained. I also had damaged items from the move that I wanted addressed.

Update: Tyler is now threatening to come to my house. These are two direct quotes from texts he sent me at 7:12pm, and then 7:19pm (screenshot attached). Text 1: "If you don’t understand the refund part. I am more than able to come to your …

Hi Kate, we have discussed this several times that you received your refund. Also if you look at your profile, you always seem to leave mostly negative comments on companies. At some point, you need to realize maybe it’s you, not the companies you work with.

The guys showed up about 20 minutes before our time slot but called first to make sure it was okay. Great communication and both guys were professional and friendly. They set up our furniture and double checked that all the packing was removed and no trash or wrapping was left behind.

Sam and his partner were incredibly efficient! They had everything set up and ready to go in about 10 minutes. They were both very friendly and took the time to ask how I wanted everything arranged before setting it up. I really appreciated their professionalism and attention to detail on an incredibly hot day!
5-star Google reviewDianne H.a month ago
Very professional and friendly. They handled my furniture carefully and placed it exactly in the place we discussed. A cord was missing. They contacted the store and I did get one the next they. Then, I received a text from them, following up asking if everything was ok. I would definitely contact Dan The Moving Man in the future.

They did a fabulous job and were very accommodating. I was driving from Madison to accept the mattress delivery and was going to be a little late for the delivery time. Your employees accommodated and did another furniture drop off first. We were so thankful.
