Horrible service. Rude attitude. They don’t know what they are there to move after getting a list, and they forgot my sons basketball net during the move. Mind you the older man tried getting out of putting the beds back together several times as well. Would NEVER use this company again.

2-star Google reviewMercedes R.Edited 3 years ago
Our move took much longer than expected. We contacted them a week before and finalized 2 days before but almost cancelled because they were not available in the early afternoon. Jacqueline told my mother they could come mid afternoon. Last minute they said they could start earlier but we didn’t know soon enough so they started the allotted time. Not an hour early as they may claim. I did not confirm an early start as Jacqueline only told me about an hour and a half before that they could start early.

Hello Mercedes, I had suggested to your Mother that three movers were the best for your relocation as it was a full three location move, this took longer due to her request of … More

Enlisted them to help move a large piece of gym equipment. After sending me a confirmation letter saying everything was good to go, they waited until the last second to tell me payment had to be in cash. The initial request to have this …

The Umbrella Movers team apologize that we could not go forward with the pick up and delivery of the apartment sized manual elliptical trainer simply due to the fact that it is company policy that all payments are to be received through our POS machine with debit or credit card in hand or cash…

Iam sorry that you feel this way. You had called us to do this relocation from your place of worship to move 1 single safe, I expressed the importance of knowing the details of this safe as it was more important to know the weight and size to determine the correct vehicle and amount of movers…

What satisfied customers point to

The same method, applied to the four and five star reviews. Most movers are praised for the same handful of things, so what is missing here is often as telling as what is present.

Friendly Staff, Great service and Reasonably priced. The snow storm didn't make it easy for our move. They were delayed a bit due to snow Storms we had over the weekend, but kept me informed the whole time as to the situation. Would recommend to anyone looking for movers.

I would recommend Umbrella Movers to any of my friends and plan to use them again for any and all future moves for me. Jacqueline and Latif were superb, making sure that all possible scenarios were covered and thought through even before moving day. On moving day, Latif and his team showed up exactly on time, despite it being 5 AM in the morning, and were so extremely kind and easy going that they made a stressful process much less so.

April 2022: Another great move - thank you! Latif kept everything moving well with a positive "no problem" approach - always a smile even though a hectic day.Thanks to all 3 movers & Jacqueline bringing it all together. February, 2021: I had experienced the performance of the moving company when helping a friend with his move - that sold me! The movers were professional, polite, asked questions re direction & placement. They overcame a snow issue with a smile. A job well done - will be recommending to others!
