In their own words
I am not one to bash companies, but please read this before you hire them for your move. We were quoted for a 6 hour move and disclosed all of the items being moved, so there were no surprises on move day. The move itself took 6.5 hours, and that was only because we had disassembled all of the items prior AND actually helped the movers offload the truck ourselves, PLUS unwrapped all of the items. Had we not done this, the move would have been another 3-4 hours easily.
Would not reccomend. Over all everything was done professionally and well until the movers broke our marble table and we received basically zero compensation. We specified in our intial inquiry that we had a marble table. At the time of the move we were very adamant that it had to be moved very carefully. After the movers wrapped it up the table broke into pieces. Once we called the moving company they stated they had no liability for marble materials.
I am utterly in shock, disappointed and disgusted on how this company treats their clients. Everything prior to booking the move was disclosed yet the estimate we were given was way off from what the invoice was. When we questioned the invoice we were given a run around. We asked multiple times to speak to a manager and until today still have not spoken to them. We were told that the furniture we wanted to get rid of would incur a fee IF the items could not be donated.
Reno: Move out, store, move back. >> Easy to quote, book and pay up front. Added storage requirements and accommodated. Pickup was great. Everything packed and moved out well. Phone staff very friendly. Delivery not so great. Team friendly up front and protected the house. Would not own up to damage clearly not specified at pickup on a dresser. Blamed each other then original crew. Did not own up to it. Did not remove heavy dresser drawers and placed it down on newly finished stair.

I don’t understand all those glowing reviews. I had one of the worst experiences in a very stressful time. I had selected Six Moving because they were located just one street from where I was movjng, thinking it’d make things easy. When I first reached out, Melody was quick to respond and at first seemed professional. I sent a bunch of pictures of my furniture and she told me she’d send a quote by the end of the day. Then… nothing. It’s like she went AWOL.
Thank you for sharing your feedback about your experience with Six Moving. We appreciate your perspective and apologize for any inconvenience or frustration caused. We understand that moving can be a stressful time, and we regret that our communication with you fell short of your expectations.
I used Six for both packing and moving. My experience heading into the move vs after where in stark contrast, and based on how they (Zara) handled things afterwards I cannot recommend them. The packing was great, there were some invoice mistakes but they corrected once I flagged to them - definitely take a picture of the contract/inventory you sign! Their communication leading up to the move was also excellent - they were thorough and professional.
Would not recommend: They were late to their alloted time by 3 hrs, meaning we missed both buildings elevator slots. We were so late that the new building had to make an exception for timing. The company took 4 hours to move an studio apartments worth of items within 1 km away. Everything was already packed and ready to go before they arrived but they were taking their time. (I was able to walk from my old studio to my new place before they left the first buildings parking garage).
Hi Tori, we can't locate this job from the name here, and a three-hour late arrival isn't something we think we've ever had. We'd like to check properly rather than guess. Could you email us at [email removed] with the move date and pickup address?
They were extremely shady. It took them twice the amount of time they quoted me (I was quoted 5 hours and it took them 9.5). They said it was because I had things that I did not list in the quote (which is true, a couple of lamps etc that I have never listed in moving quotes--definitely not 5 hours worth of belongings). They refused to list those things with/for me (as it clearly would have showed that it wasn't enough to warrant 5 extra hours) and just kept saying there were things I had not listed.
Hi Nikki, We apologize for your experience, we wouldn’t want anyone to feel this way about us, we work really hard at changing the negative image of our industry. We feel it is important to share our recollection of events to provide some context.

In their own words
This was our third moving company to try in Toronto - and by FAR the best! Moving at 36 weeks pregnant the team made the whole move stress free and over all as enjoyable as moving can be! They arrived on time, were so careful and respectful of our belongings (not one item damaged) and it really couldn’t have gone any smoother! The administration team were great and very communicative! I found Six moving to have competitive and fair pricing with no hidden costs! Special shout out to Fuoad, Moh, and Isaiah!!
Thank you so much for your incredible review Sharon! 🥰 We’re so glad our team could make your move easy, especially during such an important time for you! 😁 Your kind words and recommendation truly mean a lot to us! —Your friends at Six Moving 🩷 …
I found Six moving online, and I arrange a consult with them. I was really nervous about my move as I had a bad experience with a different movers previously. I had expressed my concern and I had a lot of questions about the process Six moving follows. Serene was the representative who was taking care of my account, she was very kind and clear with her communication. She share the quote with very detailed and clear information that I agreed to avail their services.
Thank you so much for taking the time to share this experience with us Ankita! 🙌 It means a lot that you trusted us after having a difficult move in the past. We’re so glad our team could make things clear, supportive, and stress-free from start to finish 🥰 We’ll be here anytime you need us again…
### Great Experience for Our Second Move with Six Moving This is the second time we’ve used Six Moving, and once again, we had a great experience\! They were timely, responsive, respectful of both us and our belongings, and very helpful throughout the entire move\. We were able to prioritize what we wanted them to move and they were accommodating and willing to help wherever they could\.
A second move with us means the world! Thank you so much for trusting us again and for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful review. We'll make sure the team sees this! We look forward to being there for move number three whenever the time comes! 😊 - Your friends at Six Moving 💕
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I had a great experience with the entire team! Jessica was incredibly accurate during the initial assessment. She quickly understood how much I needed to move and provided all the information I needed upfront, which made planning much easier. A special shoutout to Zara as well. I accidentally booked the wrong elevator time and was honestly quite stressed about the situation. Zara stayed calm the entire time, reassured me that they would figure something out, and somehow actually made it work!
Chloe this made our whole team smile so big, thank you!! 🩷 The elevator situation sounds like it could have been a whole thing, and we are so glad it all worked out in the end. Reviews like this really do mean the world to all of us. We'll make sure everyone sees this one!
