The rating breakdown

2 of the 23 ratings in Google’s published star breakdown for North American Moving Services are one or two star.

Worked out from 23 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.

1-star Google reviewGary L.2 years ago
If there were zero stars option that would be my rating. We moved cross country with them. Totally lied to us from the start. Delayed our loading date. Delivery date Delayed as well. I would find someone else to move you. Moving is stressful enough and a person should not have to put up with people like these. My advice is to find another company to move your goods.

5-star Google reviewChristy S.9 months ago
My husband and I were extremely grateful for the white glove service we received when relocating from Jacksonville, FL to Frisco, TX. Our move coordinator, Ian Woods was so incredibly helpful and responsive throughout this entire process. The driver Tawfeq was amazing as well. Both these men went above and beyond to make this stressful time as easy as it could possibly be. All the movers involved were hard working and handled all our personal items with care. My husband and I highly recommend this company!

5-star Google reviewValerie S.a year ago
I used this company to help move my 90 year old mother from Florida to Pennsylvania. From the initial interaction, they were able to provide me with good information and were very clear about the requirements, both for me and them. Importantly, they are an end-to-end provider, so although they do use contractors for the actual moving and transport, they utilize a very high caliber contractor. They took great care with packing my mother's furniture and kept in contact with me as needed.

Thank you, Valerie, for your wonderful feedback! We're glad to hear that the team provided clear information and took great care in making your mother's long distance move as smooth as possible. It's great to know that everything went well with her furniture and apartment setup.
