We were worried about not having enough room in the mover so Josh came before our move to plan out what size trucks to get to make sure that everything would fit. They worked really hard to Tetris everything in the moving truck and even helped us get the utility trailer on the back of the 26 mover. Josh even texted before we had the movers come to unload our truck on the other end to remind me things to warn the other movers about so our stuff didn't get damaged. A+, I would absolutely use them again!

Wow was I impressed with the Denoyer Brothers Moving Company! I asked my Coldwell Banker Schmidt…read morereal estate agent, Bart Ford who he would recommend for a local move within Traverse City. His said he used Denoyer Brothers for his own move and that was more than enough for me. I went to their website and requested a moving quote and within a few hours, Greg called and we setup a visit at our home. At my appointment, Greg, my wife Jackie and I went room to room, floor from floor, outside deck/patio and storage shed. We also told him that we have a few heavy items in a local storage facility. Soon afterwards, I got my estimate from Greg and signed the contract for that move. A day or two before our scheduled pack-out, Greg called to confirm the time of their team showing up at the house. That five-man team was led by Tony and what a great team they were! They took great care of all our items and took extra care with our floors, stairs, and walls. We went to the storage facility, picked up three items and then were off to our new house. The same care was presented when they delivered and placed our items throughout the home. Do yourself, your home, and your household goods a big favor and call Denoyer Brothers Moving for your next move! You will not be disappointed. Bob B.

The worst moving experience that I've had, I don't recommend this company to anyone…read more The kids (teenagers? early 20 somethings?)they sent to move us, while nice enough, were careless and ended up breaking a number of my items based on how they carried them out of the house. They literally hadn't moved a dresser out the bedroom before they pried it apart in to pieces. Meanwhile, I've moved it several times myself without issue... I also paid them to package a number of more fragile items, like lamps, that ended up breaking based on how they wrapped, boxed, unloaded and stacked it in to a storage unit. I purchased insurance to help offset any potential damages during the move. But, the company gave me little to no direction on how to file a claim, other than sending me a blank form only AFTER I requested it even though they knew they had already broken things when loading the truck. They knew I was moving in to a storage unit, but didn't tell me that my claim would need to be filed before I moved it again. So somehow, I'm expected to sort through each box in a storage unit to be able to file a claim. But of course, that is not realistic before moving again, at which point they absolve themselves of responsibility for damage. By the time I had my things moved in to my home and unpacked everything, I file a claim when I've evaluated my property. After several weeks of no communication, I had to call and email the owner Steve for an update. He finally emails me to say they were denying my entire claim because it had been moved by someone else since they touched it. Okay, I can understand that -- I can't prove they broke the other stuff because it was moved again by another company (which I watched diligently handle every item with care). But, here's my REAL problem: Steve Denoyer (owner) was rude and completely dismissive. He could have been apologetic and understanding about the situation; a little grace and understanding would have gone a long way. But, instead he was defensive and arrogant. And in regards to the items his workers damaged and broke in my presence? Apparently, that is was the inherent risk of moving. I'm not even that mad about my stuff being broken, I'm more upset about how the whole process was handled. So, in summary, I have no confidence in this company at all from the owner all the way down. I can't recommend their business at all based on how the employees handled my property, and how the owner handles customer concerns.

Affordable Movers - Traverse City, MI Mark Weber is one of…read morethe most responsive and considerate persons I have worked with. He is a clear communicator. He responds to calls the same day. His estimate, based on an hourly rate + transport costs, was upfront and clear. the closest competitor took a week to process a bid and came in 100% higher, with a two week delay in scheduling the work. Mark's 2 person crew were young, strong, hard working, amicable individuals. Coordinating the move from a wall to wall, floor to ceiling, end to end tightly packed and secured PODS unit in Grandville, MI to Traverse City was not simple nor easy. The transfer from POD to trailer took five of us 2 hours. There were several pieces of nice furniture and many tubs and boxes of fragile items. Not a single item was scratched, scuffed, or damaged in any way. Transfer into our residence went more quickly and in 1.5 hours they were done. I couldn't have been more pleased. Mark is an experienced mover. I would use Affordable Movers again and again.

Not a professional experience. Booked a month in advance and they did show up on time. It took them…read more3.5 hours to unload a professionally packed 16 foot truck, walking 50 feet to two empty storage units. One of the two kids (they had to be 18yo max) was sick so he basically moved one tiny thing at a time while leaving his older brother to do all the work. In addition they wedged fragile WELL MARKED BOXES in the middle of giant stacks of items. I dread opening these items. It was also not explained to me that I would be paying travel time etc and they do not take CCs so I literally did not have enough money to pay them (as I anticipated 2 hours MAX!!!). When I explained my frustration to the boss (Mark) he told me "you can't win 'em all". I had to pay one of the kids girlfriends via Venmo to complete the transaction. I was supposed to use them again at the end of the month when I move into my new home, but that's a HARD PASS.
