1-star Google reviewBen J.5 years ago
Service and follow up was terrible. Submitted payment that was processed. Instead of helping me investigate where my funds went (a check that was written out to the company, mailed to the billing address and processed) I got to pay twice the fee after they threatened to take me to small claims court for not paying. I wish I would have mentioned the damage on the treadmill that was moved. I didn’t as I ended up just fixing it myself. Save yourself the money and use any other company that is available.

Thanks for your feedback, however you issued a check without an active account and never reported damage until now.

I would never hire them again. They overcharge and aren’t careful. Everyone was nice and on time but they showed up with too small of a truck so they were unable to take everything, didn’t …

Very unsatisfied with this company. Like other reviews, I would have rated this a 0 if it let me. I hired this company to move all of my daughter's stuff (which was all in 1 storage unit) It took them over 2 hours just to empty the storage unit into their truck while complaining that there was more stuff to move than they were thinking it was. Once at new location, took their slow sweet time unloading the truck. My daughter helped move things with them cuz they were so slow.

I will never recommend these movers. We had them move our items to a storage unit 4 hours away. THEY were unable to deliver until the next week. We agreed to us being charged only two nights storage since it was their fault. They were very friendly at both pickup and delivery. I had the whole house in boxes except odd items that don’t usually go in boxes. (Tall lamps, concrete lawn ornaments and things of the like). They proceeded to put EVERYTHING in boxes.

Thanks for your feedback. I am sorry you fell that your experience was negative. It is very important to be fully prepared by making sure all contents are packed in to boxes. If we finish packing for you then it takes more time and materials than what was originally planned and estimated for.

If I could give this company a zero I would. They damaged a new bed frame that costed a couple hundred dollars and paid $21 for the damage. They were rude and unprofessional. They don't even return phone calls and the email responses are …

We do not have your name on record for a recent move. Do you have the correct company?

Our experience with Dreifuerst & Sons was not a positive one. The two gentlemen that came to move us were very polite individuals, but that doesn't make up for the damage they did to my floor, wall and couch. We moved into a brand new …

Janice, I am very sorry to hear about your experience with your move. Our employees always try to perform their best for every move and it seems as if human error shined through in a few ways.

We’ve used Driefirst Moving twice now in the last 18 months. Both times they were professional, informative, and speedy. Not one item in either move was damaged in any way. Highly recommend.

Movers arrived late but worked quickly. Overall friendly and clean, but there were quite a few boxes that were placed in the wrong rooms that we had to move around afterwards.
