    Cancellation email

    Culmer moving was SUPPOSED to move me from 8am-12pm Saturday March 23rd. After approximately 10 calls starting at 10:09 am ,between my wife and I , we were unable to reach anyone. The main number was forwarded to another phone number where you could only send your number to them as the mailbox was full and you could not send any kind of text. After 2pm, after I already called around and got College Hunks (412-226-0859) moving last minute, I finally get an email as well as another email for another person. Apparently this is the blanket message (pics below) they send to everyone when they are hungover and don't feel like working. Do yourself a favor.... if you need to be out of a property on time, skip Culmer and call College Hunks, they were at my place in an hour ready to work. At least Culmer returned my deposit, I've read other reviews that they kept some deposits.

    Three Lazy Men in a truck. the owner has no drivers license and no truck had to use a famlily member obtain a truck for my Move on 4/30/2023. The arrival time was between 8am and 10 am did not arrive until 12pm. They took my furniture apart to add more time on to the job. They took the legs off of my tables and chairs another tactic to add time on to the job dented my refrigerator that was brand new purchased, and when I said something about the dent I was told it was already there and true brand new refrigerator again they or three lazy men and a truck they didn't even put the furniture where they were told to. They didn't even know how to get the furniture into the new house. Had to hire another company to get the remaining furniture in the rooms don't ever hire this company.

    4 hours late. Damaged walls during the move. The movers were very nice but the damage and the late arrival is tough to get past.

    OK, before anyone freaks out here with the 5-star review, I hired these guys to move about 600 sqft…read moreof oak flooring (~1,800 pounds) from my garage to the room above my garage. No packing, wrapping, boxing, or prep work required. Just the stairmaster-from-hell. And they had to be careful not to damage the walls going up a stairway with a U-turn landing while carrying 60 lb bundles of 7' flooring. The two gentlemen they sent were great, got to work right away, and moved the entire batch in exactly one hour. I could not be happier. My back REALLY could not be happier (I moved the first 600 sqft myself and am still paying the price). Zero complaints, good hard but careful work. I will give you a caution when you set this up. The first estimate you get will be nice and low. As you move through the system, times and costs will grow. Gently remind them of the original quote for # of hours, minimum travel time, materials, etc. that you received. I did and they honored their original estimate. They had added a materials charge which I had them remove (giving them the benefit of the doubt, it's a large-ish company and whoever was processing my final invoice probably didn't get read-on to what the job entailed). So, no vases to pack, no mattresses to move, hence I can't judge them on that. But they accommodated my schedule, came when they said they would, did a great job, and charged me the amount I was promised. I would absolutely use them again for this type of job. My back agrees.

    TL;DR - Movers held our items on the truck until payment was made prior to unloading. Movers had no…read moreexperience moving items (uncovered mattress, face down on the sidewalk with the mover on top of it) They did not understand how to load a truck (small items were loaded first and not stacked). Claimed truck was 'full' despite being half full. Movers were instructed not to unload our items at our destination, UNTIL payment was made (which how can that be if time to unload was not accounted for?). Damaged walls and items. Had to call 2 friends to help unload the truck. Hands down the worst company I have ever worked with.We used them for a move on April 2024 to move our items from our townhome to a house that was 0.3miles away. The move took 6 hours longer than expected, despite having already broken items down and made them easily accessible. The moving crew had 0 equipment and were extremely unskilled in moving the most basic items, including a mattress. They called a week before the move to get an estimated list of items that I would need moved, during which on the phone call that I explained I was currently travelling and can only list of what large items come to mind and approximately 25-30 boxes for the miscellaneous items. There was no follow up email sent to gather a formal list of all the items needing moved. On moving day, movers were 2 hours late and 2/3 workers showed up in an unbranded moving truck that did not have a ramp. I walked the movers through our townhome and showed them everything that needed to be moved. However, it became very apparent that the movers had no experience in how to move out a house. They were unnecessarily wrapping things that didn't need to be wrapped, and did not know how to move a mattress as it took around 30 minutes to get it down 2 normal flights of stairs. It wasn't until hour 2 of 6 of moving out that the third mover showed up. They spent a total of 6 hours trying to move our well packaged and organized items out of the townhome. I spoke with Michael Dunne who asked me what is going on and why is it taking so long to move out. I explained that the movers were disorganized and lost with this move out process, and that the truck did not have a ramp. One of the movers came back to me and said that they couldn't take half of the items I showed them because it was 'not on the list' - the estimate list that I read out over the phone while travelling. We were 5 hours into this move out process that should've taken no more than 1.5-2 hours with any other company. They also claimed the truck was 'full' even though nothing was stacked. I also had to help them move some of the bigger items into the truck myself. 6 hours into the move, Michael Dunne called one of the workers and said they had to move onto the destination right up the street and start unloading. Extremely frustrated at this point, I agreed to move on and we'll come back for the other items ourselves - Michael Dunne got me to schedule another pickup in a few days, during which a $100 deposit was made. When we arrived at the unloading destination, the movers were instructed not to open the cargo door until a full payment of $2081 was made, PRIOR to unloading the items. This was around 2x what was quoted as they were charging for 'extra time' due to their inability to support a proper move-out. How do you know what to charge hourly if you haven't done the unloading process yet? They parked on a very busy street and not our driveway, despite me requesting the drivers to park in the driveway or even our front lawn. They refused, stating "we are not a traffic company, we are a moving company. F**k the traffic". Multiple items damaged, walls damaged, it took until 9:30pm (9.5 total hours) to have 75% of our items moved out of our townhome that we can still see out of the window from our new house. It took multiple emails and phone calls to cancel the follow up move and receive my $100 deposit back. I never received the signed contract at the time payment was made, and emails and phone calls have not been answered.

    They rip you off--be careful…read more That is the estimated price that I got from them before movning. - Around USD 1300 : for 15-20 funiture/ 2 TV screens/ around 30 boxes / they estimated 6 hours with 2 staffs -What it really costs was USD 3000 : around 30 funiture / 30 boxes + several more items / 11 hours with 3 staffs (We moved the two TVs ourselves.) Even if I had more furniture ( I didn't count my chairs and it was my fault ) I still don't understand it took them 5 more hours with 3 staffs instead of 2 staffs!! I am pretty sure that the company takes into account the time it typically takes when they estimate a price. I simply cannot comprehend, by any standard of reason, how the move took 11 hours. It also took one guy over 90 minitus to assemble a queen size bed & one dining table while other 2 guys were just haning out. Why didn't they splite the work so that one person handled the assembly while the other two carried the items? It is very unfair that they charged me for the labor of three people for those 90 minutes. Did they handle things and charge me in such an unreasonable manner because I am not American?

    If I could give six stars I would. Amazing experience... Extremely hard workers, efficient,…read moreflexible and professional. Closing on my house, then purchasing a new one, followed by moving all in one day was very stressful. However, the actually moving process with Home sweet moving was so smooth. Their positive energy was contagious. I would without a doubt recommend this company to anyone moving.
