In their own words
I moved from Boston to Florida. This company name Kelly and Jerry as unprofessional as I’ve ever seen. Do NOT go with this company if your moving out of state. They sell your contract to anyone that bids on the move. Once they contract you, there done with you and have no further interest on when and how you’ll be moved. Prodigy movers sold my move to Moving express out of NY. I was missing over 10 boxes! And more half of my glass ware was broken to pieces! The cracked my 55 inch TV.

NEVER EVER USE THIS COMPANY!!! Here’s my horrible experience. I’m moving across the country. I called and spoke with a Daniel to get a quote on pricing. I was emailed over a contract, and asked to submit a copy of my drivers license and credit card to ensure it was me. They advised they have to put down 2 days on the paperwork but that dispatch would call and advise of a date and time when the movers would arrive. The first day comes. No call. No movers. I call the company. No answer.

I’ve been thinking about whether or not to post this for awhile, but today was the defining moment when I opened up an under-bed storage box and found the packers had shoved in the dustiest, dirtiest, most disgusting piece of forgotten luggage from under my bed along with my children’s toys, which were already packed nicely. Why? We were around, they could have asked us, or they could’ve used common sense and not thrown it in with an already packed box filled with baby stuff. We had boxes left over!
We are very sorry to hear about your experience and the damage and distress it caused your family. What you describe is not the level of service we expect; packing moldy items with children’s belongings, leaving items behind, and breaking a … More
I moved nearly 8 times and have never dealt with a more unprofessional company as Prodigy. My first quote was $1300 then two days later upped it to $1700 due to tariffs. Then upped it to $1900 due to more items added to list. OK I can deal with that. Then the evening before packing up my things, they called and upped what we owed to $3900. By this time the next day I have to be out of my place because it was sold. So we had no choice but to agree to it.

The movers brought our furniture last night, finally. This entire process with this company has been one mistake after another. From arriving on site to pick up our stuff and managing to tack on hundreds of dollars in unanticipated fees, putting a hole in the wall moving stuff, and claiming it wasn't there fault. To promising us a delivery date and then completely lying and arriving 8 days after the scheduled date.
you got the wrong company! we located in los angeles and we do not go out of state, another company in the east coast using our name and reputation. please remove! these criminals have no affiliation with our company. … More
We hired Prodigy to help us move a few miles down the street based on all the positive reviews. We figured spending up for the best provider would be worth it. We were wrong. Very wrong. Also, an important note regarding those positive reviews: any negative reviews my husband or I write seem to disappear when viewed on incognito mode here or Yelp, so it appears they are very aggressively managing their profile and I would be leery of trusting what your read.
Hi Bridget, update 10/22/2022 thank you for your corroboration with resolving your claim, i apologize for what happened during your move, i assure you that something like … More
I went with this company because they had good reviews. Everything was fine & they were super friendly and responsive, UNTIL THEY PICKED UP MY FURNITURE... Once they got my stuff that's when everything changed. They also lied SEVERAL times. When I 1st signed up the sales person told me they had a tuck of course going to the state I was moving to. Once they got my stuff it became a 4 - 10 days is our usual turn around... Once the 10 days past it became that they had up to 30 days to deliver.

Do not use... my assumption is that they send a link for reviews and internally attempt to filter good/bad reviews to assist in what the consumer sees based on how bad this service was. Everything was fine until they picked up. Said couches were oversized and charged 1000 more. Then said they would deliver on the 9th.... on the 26th they call to deliver and I have to cancel a flight. I sign papers and realize the next day I’m missing items. When I call they say it wouldn’t fit on truck, after I finish paying.

In their own words
I had a great experience on my moving day. The movers were on time, efficient, careful and communicative. I want to emphasize how safely they wrapped our furniture and electronics due to the heavy rain. I’d highly recommend them to friends and family and would use them again if needed. Their rates are competitive and great communication. Thank you to the team that assisted me on the day of my move and to Jose who coordinated and scheduled everything for me.
We had an excellent experience with the three brothers who handled our move from Prodigy Moving. Rafael was the lead mover and his communication style was fantastic! This was a big job—a full 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom apartment—and a long-distance move from Hollywood to Orange County, and they absolutely delivered. From start to finish, they were professional, efficient, and incredibly hardworking.
Thank you so much for the glowing review, Emily. We’re thrilled Rafael and the three brothers provided professional, efficient service and made your long distance move from Hollywood to Orange County feel smooth and manageable.
Prodigy Movers were recommended by two friends, and they exceeded my expectations! Our movers Mauricio, David, and Luis did an amazing job - they worked quickly and carefully, were communicative, and handled everything with care! Their job wasn't easy because the elevator at our new 3rd floor unit was broken so they carried everything up two flights of stairs! I'm so appreciative of their hard work! Everything arrived in perfect condition. They made our move day a breeze, and it was worth every penny.
Thank you, Casey, for the fantastic review and for recommending Prodigy Movers. We're thrilled Mauricio, David, and Luis exceeded your expectations, especially carrying everything up two flights with the elevator out, and that everything arrived in perfect condition.
Had a great experience with Prodigy and would absolutely use them again. Veronica was so helpful and made scheduling service a breeze. Fernando and his team did an incredible job moving our furniture. We had two things we were worried about moving - an oversized couch and many crates of vinyl records. They made it so easy. They hoisted our couch over the balcony seamlessly and handled crates and crates of vinyl records with care. Payment was easy and as expected. I'd recommend them to anyone!!
Thank you so much for the glowing review, Lindsey. We’re thrilled Veronica made scheduling easy and that Fernando and the team handled the oversized couch and crates of vinyl with care. We appreciate your recommendation and look forward to helping you again.
