The rating breakdown

9 of the 27 ratings in Google’s published star breakdown for Manitoulin Transport are one or two star.

Worked out from 27 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.

Took the day off so I could be there to receive my ikea order, and when I called customer service the lady was so rude, she was like gas lighting me, telling me that the delivery drivers tried to call me and there was no answer. I confirmed that they had the right number and that I did not receive a call/text/email. The only thing nice I have to say is that the guy at the shop went above and beyond by helping me load everything in my little car. Literally don't even think they tried to deliver my stuff.

OVERNIGHT SERVICE??? So far its been 5 days(with weekend) since we requested a small pallet from Edmonton to Fort McMurray. Took 2 days just to pick it up and now we are told we have to wait another day because the paperwork from the supplier was not as expected, the VERY BEST part of the explanation was when we are told in no way was any of this Manatoulin's fault. Great customer service guys, blame everyone involved but you.

Show up without calling. Sometimes on your days off. A delivery showed up at 2PM one day and i told them i needed them first thing the next morning. They charged me double for delivery and the next day showed up at 130 when i asked for 830. Drivers are usually nice, dispatch seems unorganized. Would not recommend.

Tried to call about a quote to ship a toolbox. I got transferred to 4 different phone numbers and ended up getting frustrated and hung up. I'll bring my own toolbox in my pickup.

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.

My store in Fort McMurray receives deliveries from Manitoulin weekly, sometimes more frequently. The delivery staff is always nice and friendly. But today, our delivery person went above and beyond. Our order was very large due to our store …
