Beware - they are unprofessional and charged us $800 over what they quoted, claiming more stuff than expected and longer moving distance from house to truck. They did a walkthrough before, shouldn't be this different Also broke multiple …

I wish I could give less just total reckless how they packed our stuff. Brand new tv led screen completely shattered. Engagement gifts destroyed. Shoes just tossed at the bottom boxes with heavy stuff on tip. Gave them a perfectly good tv box and lazily packed it some cheap crap they had. I just sit here wonder what we paid for. The service wasn’t cheap it was middle of road price. Customer service was terrible moving coordinator just as incompetent.

As someone that’s worked in the moving business, I must simply say that these guys were beyond lazy. They put in no effort packing, showed up with minimal supplies & in general a very disorganized bunch. All before, charging an exorbitant …

if you have ibs they will fire you for using the bathroom too long. They have favorites (college boys ) so if you’re not a college boy you will not be favorited & treated correctly

The safety of our drivers and crews is a top priority. Due to a number of factors, it was deemed unsafe for our crews to perform their job. We're sorry we were unable to meet your needs and wish you the best of luck with your move.

5-star Google reviewMatt J.6 months ago
Had another fantastic moving experience with Schroeder Moving Systems. This is our 4th move with Schroeder (2 cross country and 2 local) and each has been completed in a timely and professional manner. The moving coordinators did an outstanding job before, during and after the move. We appreciate their patience as we had to apply changes to the move just a few days prior to their team loading our home. The moving crew did a fantastic job as well.

Had a tricky load on a tricky desert gravel road out here in New Mexico. Mike made it look easy and got in and out safely. Communication was always open and extremely reactive which made things even easier. I watched the care given to the load in and tie-down - extremely professional. Well done Mike & Thanks!
