In their own words
Long story short: if you have a problem, the people at this company have no sympathy, don’t apologize, and are completely uninterested in helping their customers. The movers themselves did a great job. They were fast, careful, and courteous. But they did accidentally leave an item on the truck, and everything went downhill from there. No one at the company, except for Carrie, seems to give a damn at all about helping their customers. We moved on a Tuesday morning.
I had used them in the past with good results, But this time the experience was VERY different. I called ahead a few days before to ask them to bring a tool to remove hex bolts to make moving and eliptical easier. The movers that arrived acted as if they had never gotten the message. THEN they broke a cover off the programmable thermostat on my wall while they were moving an item. They wanted to reimburse me 60 cents per pound.
Movers were contracted to move my home at 9am and did not show up until 4:30pm! I called the Fort Wayne Manager Travis and left 8 messages. No returned phone calls. I called the owner Josh with no return phone calls. I call today and Josh the owner answers the phone. I calmly and respectfully explained how this issue occurred and how it inconvenienced my family with Here to There Mover's showing up 7 hours late.
I formally retract my offer of additional compensation for your inconvenience and i wonder why you use a fake name to conduct business affairs? After reviewing all details of the day, giving you a discount on the total, a free man to make the job go quicker once we got there and free materials for…
I scheduled my move back in January for a 10:00am move. Movers finally showed up at 5:15p. Lead mover smelled of alcohol. He was VERY lewd and rude... he even suggested the move would go faster if we helped with some of the smaller stuff. After the truck was loaded, as we were preparing to head to the new place, the lead mover was rolling a joint in the cab of the truck. I attempted to call the office numerous times, but no one would return my call. I finally called the police...
Mrs Hayhill; I'm very sorry, but i think you have the wrong company. I have no record f moving you. Or this is just a bad review from another company trying to make us look bad....
We were not happy at all. First of all, we purchased the certificate from Amazon Local, and when we set up the appointment, we were told that there was an extra charge of $25 that was not on the certificate. I asked that they movers call before they came, but they just showed up without calling. The certificate was for 3 hours, and the move really should not have taken that long. Unfortunately one of the two men had his phone and was continually stopping to talk on his phone or to look at it.
We do charge for materials used while on the job. Any packing needed or materials used to protect floors or shrinkwrap , tape is charged for outside the Amazon local deal. You are welcome to fill out a damage claim about any broken items.
Unethical company. Buyer beware! We scheduled our move with Here to There Movers. They showed up late, with the wrong number of people, and said they’d have to reschedule. We told them we needed to move today, so if they can’t do it we would make some other arrangements and get it done. It sucks, but we can figure it out. They ensured us we would be take care of and the move would happen still! Just had to get more men. The manager called and then another district manager from their corporate office called.
I have seven recorded phone calls that will prove this is just NOT true. Your wife scheduled a truck and 3 men on a Sunday. We arrived with 2 and that's our mistake. They felt overwelmed by the size of the move and attempted to reschedule.
The movers were great. Thomas, Kenny and Steve were polite and worked together to make the move quick. However, the moving truck broke down twice. Once on the side of the road but it started again after 20 minutes. Then once during a stop in driveway. We then had to sit there for 2 hours waiting for the owner or manager to call or show up, which never happened. The company completely left us hanging and really left its employees hanging as well.
Had the most upsetting experience. My movers were scheduled to be at their job at 2:00 pm. They did not arrive until 5:00 pm and I had to call the office 3 times to keep being told the time would be later than scheduled. They were foul mouthed and making fun of a cable installer I had at the home. They were more interested in making conversation with 20 year old sitting outside next door than actually moving my things.

In their own words
I have used this company for several moves. They are beyond excellent. They are punctual, courteous, and handled my items with care. I have moved what feels like a gazillion times, but by far, these are the best movers. They have the best price and the best service hands down. Even though the movers are paid by the hour, the hustle to get the job done quickly and efficiently. One of the moves that I coordinated was for my parents. This was a cross-country move.
Moved our company offices this weekend. Mike the manager was very responsive to calls and scheduling. His team was short staffed due to no shows and short one truck due to mechanical issues but Mike led his team through the move and worked into the night to see it through completion. If I was the owner I would have personally came out and helped as the short staffed crew was exhausted but all owners out here aren't savages, I get it ... The crew deserves a massive kudos. Thanks for the help.
We used 1 large truck and 3 movers for a 4BR house with a basement and 2 sets of stairs. They took care of the job in about 6 hours, which was right on with what they estimated for our quote, and actually just slightly cheaper. The movers were very friendly, and did a great job, without any damage. I'll definitely use them again when we move out of this temporary rental!
The movers were curteous and pretty careful. They were able to accommodate moving my fiance's apartment the same day, although they didn't do things quite in the order I hoped for. They did wrap all furniture carefully and very little was broken. They struggled with some of the staircases in our old Tudor home and were unable to get some of the furniture around corners, but this wasn't their fault.
