In their own words
BEWARE!!! Gamecock Movers DESTROYED my items and cost me so much time and money (Many of THOUSANDS of dollars!!!). They showed up late. Came with a smaller truck saying their bigger truck we paid for broke down. No tools, wheel truck, or …
This is a fake review, we have never moved a Christian Lemay.
First let me say the actual guys on the move were nice but I did have SEVERAL issues and I am still finding issues as I unpack. I explained to the company that I was downsizing from my home in Columbia to a townhome 1 hour away and that I would make 1 stop to place some items in storage in Columbia and then the rest of the items would be going to my new home 1 hour away.
Hello Ms. Whitaker, This is Brayden from Gamecock Moving. I was one of the two employees who came up … More
This company is a joke. My previous move was done by Movers Pro and they were beasts. They really need a way to be more efficient so that the process can flow smoother. 17 minutes into the job, one of the movers thought they may need additional help. Seriously, I was blown away and because of that my Dad has to help. The services offered were not the services received. They dinged a lot of my furniture, dropped my speakers. They took a lunch break and misrepresented how long it was.
Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback. We take pride in our workers ability to move efficiently and effectively, and we apologize if our service did not live up to your expectations. It’s very unusual for us to receive a complaint … More
Called and planned to have something moved and followed their steps and even had then put it down on their schedule. Took off work and even had another business at my house to help with this move. Hours before they are to arrive we call to verify everything and they tell us they forgot to put us on their schedule and were busy. Didn't want to even make it up to us and I have to have this moved today. Hung up on me and now I'm stuck relying on other companies to bail me out.
Good afternoon Nick. As discussed on the phone earlier we never received a firm date and time on your end for the move, and as a result your reservation was never finalized. Before you abruptly ended the call we were explaining we could … More
During my recent move I paid the service to breakdown and load my uhaul. Once I everything was unpacked at my new location. Couldn’t find any of the screws to put items back together. most of my furniture was damage due to them not completely covering the furniture.
Good morning Mrs. Jackson. First and foremost thank you for providing feedback from your recent move, the safety of your belongings is our top priority. Our policies are designed to ensure that your belongings are handled with the utmost care and arrive in the same condition as we found them.
We had Gamecock movers move us from Bluffton, SC up to Lexington, SC in May ‘25. They showed up 2 hours late as the team lead admitted to over sleeping. Further, they didn’t bring enough padding to wrap furniture and tried to stretch what …
Mr. Basham, We are very sorry about the damage on your move. We also do apologize for the tardiness on the move, I know there was bad wreck on the interstate that day that also contributed to it.
What I didn't like about carolina movers is that they didn't have the tools needed for the job.They had pliers and allen wrenches instead of power tools. They lost all the pieces to my 3 dresser mirrors, they had them mixed up with the …
We are sorry to hear you were unhappy with your move Mr. Brown. We strive to make every relocation seamless and as efficient as possible, but we are human and moving can have its challenges. There are a few things that factored into the feedback you've alluded to in your review.
We used this company for our first move a few years and were so impressed that we hired them for our second move this past April. Unfortunately, what you see in the photos is how they left our furniture. …
Hello Catherine and Troy, I’m sorry about the rainy conditions on the day of your move and it sounds like apparently some items on the truck received some water damage. Unfortunately we aren’t able to avoid rain in this line of work and we certainly can’t prevent it.

In their own words
Gamecock Moving was exceptional! The crew - Kyle (Lead), Lance, Donnie, Harrison, and Alex moved us 140 miles to a two story house with a lot of stairs. Kyle, Andrew, and Lance came the day prior to do a walk-through and get things staged in the house to expedite move day. They were prompt, good communicators, very polite, careful, respectful of our belongings, super efficient, and in constant motion. For the quality and efficient services provided, some of the best money we’ve spent.
Thank you for the kind review and feedback! Always happy to hear the crews are prompt and efficient, let us know if you ever need help in the future! - Andrew
Just completed our 2nd move with Gamecock movers. Great communication from the beginning and fair pricing with no hidden fees. The young men that performed the move were professional and so efficient!! Highly recommend!!
Thank you Ms. Eason for your kind review! We are so glad to hear that your move went well. Thank you again for choosing Gamecock Moving! - Dara
Gamecock Moving was absolutely amazing! I’ve moved several times—from Las Vegas to Houston, and most recently to Columbia twice — and I can confidently say this is the best moving company I’ve ever hired. The crew—Kaleb, Alex, Ben, Kelton, and TJ—arrived earlier and immediately got to work. They were professional, courteous, hardworking, and incredibly efficient. They handled everything with care and completed the entire move in just an hour and a half. The whole process was smooth and completely stress-free.
Ms. Eriko, we can't express enough how much we appreciate your business! We are so glad to hear that your move went smoothly. Please do not hesitate to reach out for any future moving needs! - Dara
Aidan and Patrick were very professional while helping us move into our new home! We scheduled the movers for 11 but had not heard from them until I called the company at 11:15. Aidan showed up and apologized that the other employee who was scheduled to help did not show up to work and he was waiting for a replacement. Patrick arrived about an hour later straight off of another job and they immediately got to work. They had everything unloaded in under 2 hours.
