In their own words
Formal Complaint – Poor Service, Property Damage, and Unprofessional Conduct This company and its staff were disorganized, damaging, delayed, dismissive, condescending, unaccountable, careless, and overall highly unprofessional. I strongly advise proceeding with caution. My move took place on March 13th and was poorly executed from start to finish. A job estimated at three hours took well over six hours due to inefficiency and lack of coordination.
Neshay, we’re sorry to hear you feel this way, as this does not reflect the experience we aim to provide. … More

It was a mistake trusting this company for our move. 1) They broke our pictures and shadowboxes by stacking things on top of them, despite writing "do NOT stack" on the boxes. 2) I called to confirm that we needed a crew all day. They left after only 4 hours with stuff still all over and NOT packed at the old house. 3) They were sitting around, and BILLING us, while waiting for my spouse to get to the new house and pay them. This is WHILE the move was unfinished, and furniture unassembled.

One of the Worst Customer Service Experiences I Have Ever Had – Avoid at All Costs I genuinely don’t know how to fully convey how disastrous our experience with MVM was, but I’ll stick strictly to the facts. We were sold “fullservice moving”, which included: • Professional packing the day before • Wardrobe boxes and TV boxes (including one specifically promised for our 83” TV) • The largest truck available that would fit everything • Proper wrapping and protection of all items • Ontime crews • Delivery to our new…
Kaitlin, thank you for your detailed feedback. We regret that your experience did not meet expectations. We recognize there were challenges with timing, coordination, and the overall execution of your move.
I have no idea how this place has good reviews unless we just managed to catch them on their worst day in history. When I scheduled with them I was told they would be late morning/early afternoon because they had an earlier move. Perfect. By 10 am we had every piece of furniture disassembled and ready to move. 2 bed frames, 2 mattresses, a couch, a couple chairs, a vanity, and a washer and dryer. We don’t hear from the company until 4:20 pm.
Maggie, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're sorry to hear your move did not meet your expectations. We understand how frustrating it must have been to experience such a significant delay, especially on a day when you needed to be completely moved out.
Our movers worked to get everything done. However they paid zero attention to labeling of boxes. More on that later We were excited as we have used MVM twice in the past and everything was wonderful. Yesterday, however was awful and the most stressful move ever! We were promised two trucks to arrive at 9am. I asked where the second truck was and was told “it’ll be here very soon”. They loaded up the one truck and left to the new house still no truck. I was told 45 minutes to an hour around 2pm or so.
Jeff, thank you for your feedback and for your past business—we truly appreciate it. We regret that this move did not meet your expectations. … More
I'll begin with at least my son is not going to suffer long term injury due to improper moving and set up of his crib. At least this is a comfort given the circumstances. Often you write bad reviews because of damaged items but this is about more than that. As a result of our crib being put back together incorrectly our son fell through the front of the crib while sleeping and got his head stuck between the metal and frame. Panicked we had to break the front of the crib off to rescue him.
Darian, we’re truly sorry this experience was so upsetting for you and your family—especially involving your child. We understand how frightening that must have been, and we’re relieved to hear your son is okay. … More
I had high expectations when I hired MVM moving company, but unfortunately my experience did not meet the standard I expected from a professional service. To be fair, both movers were courteous, and one of the gentlemen was especially kind and respectful throughout the move. However, the overall process was disorganized and inefficient. I paid for a two-person moving crew, but one mover arrived approximately 30 minutes late, leaving the other to start the job alone.
Des, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're sorry to hear your move didn't meet your expectations. … More

In their own words
We had a wonderful experience with Joe, Jeff, and Jervonte during our recent move. They were professional, polite, hardworking, and arrived right on time. Moving can be stressful, but they made the entire process go smoothly from start to finish. We did have a small issue initially with getting our moving bins, but as soon as management became aware of the situation, they immediately stepped in and made everything right.
Anne, thank you for the great review! We’re glad our team could help make clearing out your basement easy and efficient. We truly appreciate your trust in us and look forward to helping with your upcoming move!
Could not recommend MVM moving more!!! We had a same day move from Cleveland to Indianapolis and our movers, Chris and Nick, were world-class. Both these guys were timely, extremely polite, professional, cognizant and careful with our belongings, and truly made our move so much more relaxing. Really appreciate all they did by putting so much hard work into our relocation.
Thank you so much, Bilal! We're thrilled Chris and Nick provided a world-class same-day move from Cleveland to Indianapolis. Our dedicated trucks and in-house crews allow us to provide more direct and dependable service, and we're glad that helped make your relocation more relaxing.
Moving stinks! But if you have to do it, I highly recommend MVM without hesitation. Their communication is great and the guys were so careful and really treated our stuff like it was their own. Plus they were nice guys and you can tell they’re treated well by their employer because they were engaged in their work which is really hard work. They made a tough transition of moving out our home of 27 years where we raised our children as pleasant as it could possibly be. Thanks guys!
Thank you, Lee! Leaving a home filled with 27 years of family memories is a major transition, and we’re honored our team could make the process a little easier. We truly appreciate your comments about their care, communication, and positive attitude. Thank you for trusting MVM Moving & Storage!
From start to finish, MVM provided excellent customer service. The home office was extremely flexible with multiple changes before the move even took place. The on-site team arrived early, introduced themselves and took exceptional care of all my parent’s belongings. It was a great experience all around. Omar, Kaidan and Slater did an outstanding job!
Dana, thank you for the wonderful feedback! We’re glad our team provided a flexible and seamless experience from start to finish. We’ll be sure to pass along your kind words to Omar, Kaidan, and Slater. We truly appreciate your trust in MVM!
