Counted across the 2 one and two star reviews we have read for Movers by the Sea. A review can describe more than one problem, so these do not add to 100%. Each share is rounded on its own.
In their own words
We used Movers by the Sea for a three-bedroom move and, unfortunately, cannot recommend this company. I have used several moving services in the past, and this was by far the worst experience. …
Mr. Eric Shanks' Review The photograph in this review shows construction debris from Mr. Shanks' own home, which had been under construction, that was already present when we arrived.
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.

In their own words
We have hired them several times because we needed to move our furniture and other belongings back and forth between our home and a storage unit. They always arrived on time with a large truck. They worked quickly and efficiently, and it was clear that they knew exactly how to load and unload everything properly. Even though some boxes were crushed from being moved back and forth so many times, they carefully adjusted and stacked everything to make it fit safely.
Movers By The Sea did an absolutely outstanding job unloading our four 16-foot POD containers! The entire team worked quickly, efficiently, and professionally while making sure every item was handled with care. They were extremely helpful throughout the entire process, and their knowledge, attention to detail, and excellent customer service really stood out. Even after a long cross-country move, they made the unloading process smooth and stress-free.
Great experience with Movers By The Sea. Tristan, Bryce, Orion, and Mikey showed up right on time, were super friendly, and kept great communication throughout the entire process. They handled all of my belongings with care and worked fast while staying completely professional. Highly recommend this team.
Charlie and Celso did a great job moving many pieces of bulky heavy furniture downstairs for us. We moved 3 rooms of furniture to prepare for painting and reflooring. They both took great care to protect against damage and worked as a team to finish the job quickly. I highly recommend their services.
Diane, thank you for recognizing Charlie and Celso by name. Moving heavy furniture downstairs while protecting the home and its contents requires care, coordination, and experience, and we're proud of the work they did for you.
