The rating breakdown

Worked out from 43 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 reviewKimberly J.Edited 3 years ago
These people were very rude. They will block you in places where you can't get out. Then tell you that they aren't going to move their truck so you can get out. They'll cuss you out as well. The old man that works there said that the driver was being too nice by moving the truck to let us out. Which the only reason the driver moved was because the police was called on him. In response, he was not backing up when we were pulling into the bay. If he was we wouldn't have been able to get in.

Hello Kimberly. Our truck was parking into a spot at the storage facility and then you parked at the spot that he was backing into. He then just parked next to your car so they can get to their customer's storage bin. You are the one that … More

Would not recommend. Had them provide packing service but they did such a bad job marking cartons (finding bathroom items with food ) no rhyme or reason to their method so having a difficult time finding things. They also chipped my dining room table and broke a large frame on a picture I was going to hang. Worst of all, movers never plugged in my freezer all the way so we lost about $500 worth of food.

Hello Gloria. I am sorry about the service that you had. Rich did send the check out for $100 on 12/26, I'm not sure why you did not receive it. I tried to call your phone number that was on file to discuss the other issues but it was not in service.

Hello Sandra. Please call the office. I tried to look you up in our system and your name did not come up, I'm not sure if it's under a different name.

5-star Google reviewHadassa L.a year ago
Freehold movers were PHENOMENAL to work with. They showed up promptly and gave us a quick and simple estimate, which was spot on value wise, and had no confusing rates or add ons. The movers were immaculate professionals, treated every item carefully, needed little to no guidance as they know their profession like the true experts they are. They went above and beyond, helping us with things we hadn't anticipated with the warmest, most generous attitude.
5-star Google reviewDeborah L.10 months ago
I have had Freehold movers move me three separate times into two free standing homes and also into a storage unit and out of a storage unit on two separate occasions. They are absolutely wonderful very professional and very fair and reasonable and quite frankly they've never broken anything or did any damage to any of my quite voluminous furniture tchotchkes and paintings Etc.
5-star Google reviewJoe R.2 years ago
We moved from our home in nj to our new home in Pennsylvania, and i must say from meeting the guys and how polite and respectful they were from start to finish it was a very stress free move thanks to all four of them. Can’t say enough about Freehold Movers my wife and i would absolutely recommend them for anyone who is planning a move and if I had to move again they would be the only ones I call. Good Prices Great Customer Service and Great bunch guys who made the move for us under a very hot June day.
5-star Google reviewMichele F.2 years ago
5 stars all the way!! From the office team, to Richie who came to our house to provide the estimate and to the moving team (Jake, Alfie, Richie Jr and Joe). Very honest, friendly, prompt, polite, reasonable and professional. If you are looking for a moving team then Freehold Movers are for you. Definitely would recommend them.
