Daughters dresser
Kenny R.

Let me start by saying I have moved multiple times and used moving companies everytime without issue....until now. First my broker company lied about the delivery time so that's one thing that went wrong at first. We paid for economy moving apparently which gave them 1-24 days to deliver. On day 20 I am told the truck my things are on is broken down in Salina Kansas. Two days later I get a call from the owner saying my things were never loaded on the truck.....they had forgotten them in the Pacific northwest. So now que the horror story. Owner says he is flying to Seattle to verify my things are safe and get them coming to me(a lie). 3 weeks later my things are finally on the way here with delivery guaranteed in 4 days, a week later my things finally arrive after the driver kept only driving 3 hours in a day. Day of delivery My furniture is all practically destroyed, my 6 months old daughters brand new Graco crib is busted and scratched to an unbelievable state. Our sons dresser apparently sat in water and the wood swelled, all televisions broken, pieces missing so far to several beds. And to top it off the driver Ken showed up drunk as a skunk, when confronted about it he ran out the door threw the rest of our stuff in the driveway and proceeded to attempt to hit me with the truck. Long story short this company has been the worst company I have ever moved with.

If you are looking for a moving and storage company, you should absolutely call Allen and Son. From the on-site estimate to the first moving day, the team was outstanding! They are storing my things until I move in another month. I have no doubt I'll have the same experience. The level of service was TOP NOTCH. Thank you to Mr. Robert, Allison, Mrs. V, Nigel, Pete, Mr. Reggie and "Beast" (when you see this man in action, you'll know why they call him that!) You all are the BEST! I love how well everyone works together. I look forward to working with you all again next month!

Long, narrow driveway was no issue for these guys.

See all

There prices have gone up quite a bit - just this last month my rent raised $66. No heads up. No…read moreemail. No notice. A straight $66 increase - with no reason stated. The unit itself is decent. They have handcarts that are free to use and that's a nice gesture. However, loading and unloading are a pain because you need to put in your code each time you come in and out - and if you're literally in process of moving from the dock to the unit, the door needs to be closed in between each run (this happened when the moving company I hired was moving me in - even though they had their guys in the truck on the dock, the door couldn't be propped open while they loaded into the unit.) This means you'll need to be at the door letting your movers in and out the entire time because the door opens by bluetooth code only. Really a pain when you likely will need to be at your unit organizing / directing where things go. Another big negative - they have motion sensor lights above the units. So when you're in your unit, and you're reorganizing or looking for something, roughly every 30 seconds the lights will turn off above you. You'll need to motion them in just the right way to get the lights to come back on. VERY inconvenient. I asked the property manager at the front desk what the deal with that was and she simply said "sorry, we can't do anything about it." You... can't put properly functioning lights above the storage units? The one you're raising my rent on for $66 out of the blue for? Come on now... I don't recommend this storage unit.

I come trundling back with an over- and awkwardly loaded cart. Stuff falling off, bonking the walls. With no detectable attitude of, "You dumbass" that I deserved, Anthony offered to help and did--for about ten minutes, until my cargo and I were packed safely into the elevator. Later, because this is the kind of day it was, I broke the key off in the lock. Anthony smilingly to the rescue again. With a paperclip, a few deft taps, and well-placed fingernails, he coaxed the key carcass from its sarcophagus. He sold me a new lock and said If I can retrieve the other key and return it with the lock I can return the one I bought. His manner is gentle, genial, professional. I would recommend this facility--which is also clean and well-run--to anyone for whom it's remotely convenient.

It is not often that you get great customer service nowadays. My first interactions were with Ell…read moreand Josh. Ell was very helpful and have a thorough explanation of the rental process and she did it with a genuine smile that you could feel that she was happy to assist without any hesitation. I was able to get the units I needed in the time frame I was looking for. I have to say that it was the team work between Josh and Ell that made that happen. Josh assisted and was able to find the units that were becoming available. He and Ell made this process such a delight when I was expecting it to be somewhat stressful with the time frame I had. Not only was this experience a breath of fresh air, but it continued each time I was at the facility. The maintenance and care of the facility is just as nice. Each time I have made a trip to my unit I see all of the crew doing something around the facility and each time they make eye contact and greet you with a smile. Josh was painting on one occasion and stopped what he was doing to acknowledge me and say good morning. You do not get this kind of acknowledgment anywhere these days and when you do it's definitely recognized. Thank you Josh, Ell and the other extremely kind and helpful maintenance helper that all I can remember is he has been with them for 4 years . I didn't want to get his name wrong. Keep up the great work and keep smiling . We need more experiences like these.

I should've listened to the reviews on this company that were so low. Unfortunately, we were in a…read morepinch needed to move quickly after another moving company canceled. I spoke with someone on the phone who gave a low quote, had immediate availability, and I understood the terms of the quote which were they charge a full hour just to come to your house for travel and then a two hour minimum. Our move went two hours over the minimum. This was not helped by the fact that they insisted on taking their time to wrap everything in plastic wrap even when we had some cheap stuff that we said just throw it on the truck we don't care, and disassembling things that really didn't require it. Our house was only 900 square feet and we did not have all that much and were moving less than a mile away, not across the state or country. We had to finally stop them and say this is getting to be too long and decided to dismount and move our TVs and bed frames by ourselves the next day. We were fine with paying for the extra two hours. Then comes the surprise: A $400 FEE FOR MATERIALS. What materials? Plastic wrap and packaging tape, and I suppose depreciation on their moving blankets? Seriously folks, this company will get you one way or another. Make sure that you have wrapped up everything yourself. Their workers were personable and hard-working, but the business model here is to ensure you go over the two hour minimum and to charge an exorbitant rate for materials. Do not be deceived on the phone when making the initial appointment by their very knowledgeable and reassuring booking staff. That's why I thought a two star rating must have been a mistake. I was talking to a real person. The text messages that were sent seemed to have prepackaged responses and I ask if I was talking to a bot they said no. They claimed their Yelp rating is low because they "don't pay for reviews like other companies." Well, I'm a real customer and have paid dearly to provide you, the unwitting consumer, with this review. Moving is stressful enough. Getting ripped off is just insult to injury. Their phone number will come up as spam on your phone, and if you've made it this far reading this review, you can understand why. If you're desperate and have lots of cash to burn, this company will be great. However, avoid if you can!
