2-star Google reviewJacqueline K.4 years ago
Overall disappointed with the service. Have used another franchisee in the past with much more professional service. It's my belief it was some of the movers first day on the job. Careless moving, many of my wood furniture has dings or mars on it now. A large antique wood table which should have been moved by 2 men was moved by one. I had to tell the kids when to grab a dolley, showing no training had occurred.

We just had the worst moving experience with this company. We went through the estimation process listing all the items we wanted to have moved. They suggested 4 men and 5 hours total moving time. They sent us 4 men who had never worked together as a team before and it was a complete disaster. They were constantly arguing with each other which slowed things down significantly. They were the opposite of efficient because of their dislike for one another and we are the ones who payed the price.

Hi Victoria! We appreciate the honest review and are also disappointed in how your move turned out. We have a good amount of movers that we employ and it's rare that a crew doesn't jive well.

1-star Google reviewDiego Z.2 years ago
Can't complain't about the service. It's the unethical practice that threw everthing out the window. Some how my sister-inlaw debit card ended up with them by end of the move. They decided to charge her debit card at a gas station. We moved to Central Illinois, and the charge was the night of the move once complete, in Planfield. Keep in mind my SIL was no where near Planfield for months. Again, everything that happened went out the window, very unethical from this company.

I have used two men and a truck several times over the years and felt they were good and reasonably priced. Never again Truck wouldn't hold all the contents of my home, causing me to rent a box truck to finish. Count on whatever they estimate as your minimum final cost. I got quoted just over 2k to move 10 miles. I find that cost completely ridiculous. I was assured that the final cost would be based on time and might come in less. One crew member boasted they got me 500.00 under estimate.

Mike, I truly appreciate you sharing your experience and understand how frustrating it must have been to deal with the unexpected costs and the need for a box truck. It's great to hear that our crew was nice and careful with your belongings, but I apologize for not meeting your expectations in…

2-star Google reviewAurora C.4 years ago
I am not giving this business one star only because the administrative staff and the movers themselves have a friendly disposition. However, the way the young men packed the truck was careless, even reckless. When our items arrived to our new destination, our boxes were crushed (including those that were clearly labeled FRAGILE), two of our mattresses were not wrapped as requested so they were filthy, one of our TV sets was completely shattered, our plates were broken, our diploma frames and paintings were…

We are so sorry your move didn't go as planned... we try our best to continually exceed customers' expectations. Please call our office to discuss, as this is the first we are hearing about this.

2-star Google reviewGina C.10 months ago
The movers were nice enough and nothing was damaged. However, a 15.7 lb box of 7 books was somehow lost in the process. Although staff at the office initially seemed concerned about the revelation, I was never informed about what I could do to recoup the $258.93 loss. The response was simply a shrug and "we'll keep an eye out and let you know." Followed by no contact until I physically showed up at the office multiple times.

1-star Google reviewGlenda J.7 years ago
I spoke to a Lori her customer service was subpar to say the least. She was so busy fast talking me that her listening skills went straight out the door. She went on to explain how she had been doing her job for 14 years but not once listening to the actual items that were being moved just going by the size of my storage unit . I spoke to someone else prior to her and she gave me one estimate Lori however triple her estimate. So be careful who you speak with, they seem to determine the price.

Thank you for your feedback, Ms. Johnson. The original hourly rate you were provided was for a 2 man crew. After going through the detailed inventory of the items that need to be moved, and considering our limited availability to accommodate your move with short notice, it was determined that a…

Worst company ever! We spent 5K moving locally, and had to reschedule when the1st days crew couldn't finish the move. Office was told size of move & number of boxes needed. Crew never showed with ANY boxes, and were going to charge for any boxes used? They took over several unnessary days & we had to finish up ourselves with a Penske truck rental. Some guys were fine, others weren't, but the company overall isn't good! Do not work with Two Men and a Truck! They will rip you off!!

5-star Google reviewEdwin S.4 years ago
The Two Men and a Truck team were very professional, prompt and courteous. I was able to reserve and schedule a moving date the same day once the short inventory form was filled out. Greg and Stormy kept me in the loop regarding the moving truck's schedule and arrival times. The moving crew; Erin, Sterling, Jeremy, and Kevin, were exceptional. They worked quickly but were careful to move and insulate all of the boxes and furniture into and out of the truck.

Thank you so much Edwin!! We appreciate your referrals!

5-star Google reviewPatti F.6 years ago
From the quote to the actual move I felt absolutely valued, and protected by people who actually care about their clients. I was concerned the storage space wasn't going to be enough for the storage needed to stage the house for sale. Nope. They were consummate professionals on their advice. Ricky, Nick and Dan were able to move things carefully and easily and worked with me every step of the way.

5-star Google reviewKaren H.3 years ago
We used Two Men and a Truck to take items from Naperville to Lake Wildwood Friday May 19. Our team of Jake and Robert were outstanding! Jake called to let us know when they would arrive. They reviewed everything to be moved, determined best placement on the truck, and carefully wrapped all furniture. They were careful as they moved items out of the house and garage, working efficiently and carefully. They reviewed the checklist with us and made sure we knew about the charge for a second stop.

5-star Google reviewCharlette M.a year ago
I moved on 6/20 on what had to be the hottest day of the year, there was even a heat advisory in effect and despite the intense weather, Two Men and a Truck delivered an incredible experience! Collin and Robert were my movers, and I can’t say enough good things about them. They were patient, careful with all of my belongings, and moved everything thoroughly and efficiently. They even moved my 65-inch TV and king-size bed down from the second floor of a house with a lot of stairs and did it with ease!

Thank you, Charlette, for your wonderful review! We're so glad to hear that Collin and Robert provided you with a seamless moving experience, especially on such a hot day. Your kind words about their professionalism and care mean a lot to us.
