In their own words
This company was so unprofessional Furniture was broken boxes were not put in the correct place although I had labelled everything. Furniture was piled up in the basement. Dressers left on their side. I paid for three men to move. It was one older guy and two 20-year-olds They took a lot of breaks to get high came back in the house smelling like weed. I asked for a TV to be taken off the wall and they dismissed me and told me there was no room in their truck for it anyways..
Thank you for your feedback. We take all reviews seriously, though we would like to clarify some of the details mentioned. Regarding the furniture, our team acknowledged the minor damage to an older item … More
So we hired these guys to move half of our house before staging and they showed up late. They did a decent job that day so we asked them if they would do the final move and they said yes. Even after a confirmation of what time they were coming they didn't show leaving us stranded on our Moving Day. After several phone calls and messages I believe to be blocked now and have yet to receive a response or anything from that day.
Hello Dan, I'm very sorry to hear about your experience with us. I'm not sure how something … More
Terrible experience with Goliath Moving. Committed to start in the morning, was told 1 hour before that they needed to move to the next day or to start at 1 pm. Agreed to start at 1 pm. Waited around past 1... heard nothing, no-one showed up. I reached out several times, kept getting told different things, was never given any clear new proposed time. This continued through the entire day... until approx. 430 pm.
Thank you for the review. Next time when leaving a review make sure you state all the facts. Unfortunately our customer the day before, thier house didn't close, all of our equipment was occupied and we had to continue the move the next day.
What satisfied customers point to
The same method, applied to the four and five star reviews. Most movers are praised for the same handful of things, so what is missing here is often as telling as what is present.

We used them a month ago. Very professional, the owner is quite transparent and prompt. He sent the workers to my house on time and they were quick, efficient and friendly. I was moved into my new home in no time. They even put together my bed, baby crib and a few other tricky pieces of furniture. Amazing work guys!! Also my mother as well as my mother in law used this company too, this past month, flawless. Thanks!!
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a kind review! We’re thrilled to hear that our team made your move seamless and took care of those tricky furniture assemblies for you. Word-of-mouth is everything to us, so we are … More
10/5 stars for this company. Never using another moving company again. I used them in July and again in December. Two different teams and they were ALL AMAZING. So professional, so careful with our belongings and very competitive rates. Cannot say enough good things about this company and their employees. Thank you Jeremy and team!!!
Great service! We had them to remove all the items left behind by a previous tenant, and they did a great job. They were professional, responsive, and efficient. The team cleared everything out quickly and made the process very easy for us. …
Thank you so much for the 5-star review! We know how stressful managing a property cleanout can be, so we're thrilled to hear that our team made the process quick and easy for you. We really appreciate your recommendation and are always here to help if you need us again!
I had them move me into our new home about 5 years ago and they did an incredible job. No added fees, Price I paid was spot on to what was quoted I am having new furniture delivered to my rec room downstairs and needed all the furniture there taken out, sofa, 2 recliners, Entertainment unit, coffee and end tables so I used them again today to have them move furniture from my Rec room in the basement. They guys showed up on time and again they did an incredible job.
