In their own words
I have used M.Dyer for many, many interstate moves (both ways between Hawaii, California, Texas and Washington) over decades. I've had items disappear (e.g., a new expensive woman's trench coat, a small framed Japanese print) and some damage and missing hardware, but for the most part I have.appreciated the reliability of the service. My current move back to Honolulu from Washington, though, has totally changed my view of the company.
Aloha Susan, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback and for the many years you entrusted M. Dyer with your interstate moves. We are disappointed that your most recent experience left you with this impression of our company.
Not sure how they received 4/5 stars. We were assigned M. Dyer Global as our TSP during a PCS move. Poor communication with little to no updates. They were 2 weeks late from the "No Later Than" date. And are refusing to let us file an inconvenience claim, which is our right. It is also stated on their website that it is our right. Very unprofessional to whoever I was speaking to throughout the whole process.
Sir, just to clarify, we are the origin agent that was responsible for your actual packing and moving, we are not a TSP. It's a common mistake because our business names are similar. The crew that packed you were Frank and Scottie, and hopefully you were happy with their performance.
M.Dyer Global contracted Olympia Moving in Austin, TX to do our packing and shipping. Olympia did an absolutely amateur job and damaged several of our furniture pieces resulting in nearly $20k in damages. The insurance company that M.Dyer Global suggested only covered $5k in damages. Among the major issues with the pack portion of the move: * Olympia did not secure furniture pieces to the dolly and one went flying down the stairs, crashing into our wall, causing damages to our home and destroyed the furniture…
Dear G W, Thank you for taking the time to share your recent experience with us. We sincerely regret to hear about the challenges you faced during your move. Your feedback is invaluable, and we take your concerns very seriously.
The absolute worst experience I've never had the displeasure of experiencing. The lady that sets up the move called me at 2pm on a Friday while I was at work and left a message and said that I have until 2:30pm to confirm my delivery date of the following Monday (they are closed on the weekends). So I call Monday as soon as they open and she tells me they are moving my things into storage. I voiced my displeasure (very respectfully) saying that she only have me 30 mins to confirm the delivery.
Aloha Stephen, Mahalo Nui Loa for the feedback. We are very sorry your experience did not meet your expectation. We have made significant improvements and M. Dyer Global works everyday to strive for excellence.
We are a dual military couple who had an awful experience with M. Dyer moving off island. We've never had to make a claim before.... And somehow after 7 moves with different contractors, all same furniture and homegoods, with no issues... this contractor went above and beyond to make our move as miserable as possible. They took a lot of our furniture apart and never packed the hardware with it We can't assemble our beds, work desks, our office chairs, shelves, and tables because the screws and parts are missing.
Aloha Allison, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. On behalf of everyone at M. Dyer, I am sincerely sorry that your move did not meet the standard you expected or the standard we expect of ourselves.
I can attest to the other review and state that this is the worst moving experience I have had in my military career. Our stuff was packed the 22nd of May and shipped from Hawaii on 28 May. It just now "arrived" at Fort Knox on 16 July. We had friends who packed out a week later than us, and received their stuff 3 weeks before us. Different movers, better results. Besides this, there was no coordination or effort on the movers part to contact us or notify us.
Aloha Jeremy, Mahalo Nui Loa for the feedback. We are very sorry your experience did not meet your expectation. We have made significant improvements and M. Dyer Global works everyday to strive for excellence.
Ran over the neighbors mailbox; used my mattress as a seat outside and uncovered and damaged almost all of my furniture. Definitely do not recommend. Workers at the house kept making deragatory jokes and did not wait to inventory items before bringing them in the house. Broke the seals on a crate without anyone present followed by unloading it and left it in the driveway / street unatended for me to find. Missing 20 plus boxes from my move.
Aloha Sean, Mahalo Nui Loa for the feedback. We are very sorry your experience did not meet your expectation. We have made significant improvements and M. Dyer Global works everyday to strive for excellence.
Attempted to receive an estimate and book an important project for the U.S. Army Museum with well enough notice. No one responded to any inquiries until I was able to speak with someone directly, who admitted they had my email but never bothered to respond. I waited several days to never hear back. Then I called them again and when "transferred" to the person I was "working with", the line went dead. Never heard from them again.
Hello Jahan, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. I’m truly sorry for the frustration and lack of follow-through you encountered—this is not the standard we hold ourselves to, and it’s not reflective of how we’ve served Hawai‘i since 1968.

In their own words
I will recommend M. Dyer to everyone I know. This is a fantastic moving service! Punctual. Great communication. Incredibly friendly. Very careful with our household goods. I felt like the moving crew really cared about my goods and feedback. They have a very fast and efficient process and were very flexible moving me out of a multi-story apartment. They packed very carefully and even cleaned things off before packing. They got the whole place packed several hours faster than other moving agencies had qouted me.
Mahalo Maurice for such an incredible review and for trusting M. Dyer Global with your move. Your feedback truly means a great deal to our entire team. We are proud to hear that our crew delivered the punctuality, communication, care, and professionalism that every family deserves during a move.
I had the pleasure of being welcomed to the island by a company with true Aloha Spirit, a true moving & professional team! We were treated as family, or Ohana, with true respect & care. They took care of my family as if it was their own blood. They were not only quick & efficient but smart & always looking out for my items that had been shipped, quick to help me document any and everything I needed to. They were smart & knew how to professionally take care of people. I would highly recommend M.
Mahalo Jessica-Lynn for this incredibly thoughtful review. We are grateful your family felt welcomed and cared for with true Aloha Spirit. I will make sure Isaiah, Ronilo, Pono, Tyson, Zander, Palie, Steven, and our logistics support team see your kind words.
Told the guys I’d give them 10/5 stars if I could, and I really mean it! This was our first PCS. I’ve read all the horror stories and have spent countless hours thinking about what could go wrong. But today, the day they packed our goods, was by far the easiest day of the process so far! Not only were they kind, personable, and considerate, but they were incredibly detailed, careful, and quick.
Mahalo Jessica for such an incredible and heartfelt review. Reading your experience truly means the world to our team, especially knowing this was your first PCS move. We understand how stressful and uncertain the process can feel, so hearing that your packing day became the easiest and most…
We had an incredible experience moving from Oahu to the mainland, thanks to the amazing team at M. Dyer Global. My partner and I both agreed that this was the least-stressful move we've ever done. Our process working with M. Dyer was smooth from the beginning - they came over and gave us a quote and were patient and helpful answering all of our questions in person, over the phone, and email.
Mahalo Mary for such a thoughtful and detailed review. We are truly honored that M. Dyer Global could be part of making your move from Oahu to the mainland such a smooth and stress-free experience.
