Customer Highlights

Mar 04, 2026

The whole experience was so pleasant

After living in the same house for twenty years, I had accumulated a lot of random items in the attic and the shed. The movers were very patient while I decided what needed to go into the truck and what stayed behind. They worked hard to fit everything into one trip, which saved me a lot of money on fuel costs. It was a long day of heavy lifting, but the crew stayed energetic and helpful until the very last box was unloaded.

10/10 would use again.

10/10 would use again. We were moving my daughter into a 3rd-floor apartment with no elevator. The guys from M Company carried every box and piece of furniture up all those stairs. They never slowed down or complained. They even helped her unpack the heaviest boxes. The whole job took about 5 hours, which was less than they quoted.

Very hard working group of guys

The day I moved my piano was the day I realized I needed real professionals. It is an upright piano that belonged to my father, and it is very heavy. I booked Howards Van Line just for that one item and a few fragile pieces. John came to check the stairs before they started. They wrapped the piano completely and moved it slowly.

Terrible Service.

The move took much longer than promised, which caused unnecessary stress. I had difficulty getting updates, and the overall coordination could have been much better.

Highly recommend this moving crew.

Highly recommend this moving crew. I had a bunch of musical instruments, including a keyboard and speakers. They wrapped everything tightly and secured it in the truck. No bumps or marks when it arrived. You can tell they know what they're doing.

A Scam from the start!

This company called me after I searched online for a Movers for my relocation to Florida from North Carolina. The representative advised me that if he could give me a decent price for my 1 bedroom apartment move, would I consider it and I did. He stated that they already had a move near by in the area so the cost would be minimal at best. I agreed and we did the financial part with ACH bank transfer (which you cant get back after 5 days). I didnt hear back from them until 3 days before the move and then was quoted a new amount which was double the amount. I declined, then was called back by their quality assurance person & with adjustments, I agreed to continue the contract...long to short, when they picked up my things, they only could take half the items...now I've been in Florida for 2 wks and they have no idea when or where my things are....and they still expect the last payment from me also. This was a scam from jump...even their moving people were like..."Sue if you can, they do this often".

Unforgettable Experience

The move to my new place went fine because the workers arrived at my old house exactly at 8 am. I had about fifty boxes that were sitting in the living room, and I got them all out to the truck in under two hours. The guys were careful not to hit the door frames while they were walking back and forth. We made it across the city, and they put the boxes in the garage. I am finished with the work, and the price was what we talked about.

Very frustrating experience.

Several boxes were handled carelessly, and a few belongings arrived damaged. The crew seemed rushed and paid little attention to fragile items. Very frustrating experience.

The experience was disappointing.

I expected a smoother process, but there were several issues along the way. Customer support was difficult to reach, and concerns were not addressed promptly. The experience was disappointing.

I was impressed by how smoothly everything.

I was impressed by how smoothly everything went during my move. The crew arrived right on time and knew exactly what to do from the start. They handled parking, paperwork, and unloading without needing any help from me. Everything was done quietly and efficiently. It’s rare to see that kind of preparation and teamwork these days.
