    No uniforms, sign literally taped to the truck.

    Would give 0 stars if I could. My signature was forged on documents that I did not see until afterwards. I sent the below email to them, and their response amounted to "sorry you're frustrated, nothing we can do, thanks for understanding." No. Here's a copy of the email I sent to them, for context: "Hello, That is not my signature. I did not see or sign this document. Options A, B, and C were not addressed with me on 8/31/26. On 8/31/26, Joshua Quigley did not arrive until at least 1:11pm. The document you provided shows the start time as 12pm. I already informed Jeff Sailaubek of this at the time of payment, and this should have been updated. Further, I was quoted 3-4 hours at $140 per hour. Quigley tried to charge me for 8 hours. I informed Jeff of this at time of payment also. I also explained to Jeff what happened during my move. Jeff told me that he could discount 1 hour, and that I would have to contact Goat Movers directly to dispute this charge further. I am disouting this charge now. I did also speak to someone named Sarah, I believe, via phone on the morning of 9/1/26. She told me that the information would be passed on to management. To recap, movers were scheduled to arrive between 8 and 9am on 8/31/26. Instead, I had to call for a status update at 12:35pm after hours without any communication from the moving crew or from Goat Movers. Quigley arrived at my apartment at 1:11pm or later. At 4:37pm, I contacted Quigley after not hearing anything from him for over 3 hours. At 4:44pm, Quigley texted back saying they were about to head over. Quigley then did not arrive to my new apartment until after 6:17pm. I have since been informed that the original movers sideswiped a car in my neighborhood. My understanding is that this resulted in police showing up at my apartment while Joshua Quigley and whoever he hired were there. Quigley had told me that he took so long to finish loading my belongings and arrive at my new apartment because the police were asking him questions. Quigley told me that this resulted in the man that he hired loading the moving truck by himself while Quigley spoke to the police. The clock should have stopped until the issue with the police was resolved and started again when Quigley and his hire were able to resume. It is unreasonable and absurd that Quigley charged me for the time that he was talking to the police. Quigley's hire had driven separately in his own vehicle, and Quigley also waited around for him to get there instead of at least beginning to unload the truck. While waiting, he harassed one of my new neighbors, including shouting at her and repeatedly calling her "baby" and "sweetheart." When Quigley's hire did arrive, he was visibly under the influence. He slurred his speech and could barely get a word out, his eyes were glassy, he could barely walk without stumbling, and he could barely push the dolly back and forth between the truck and my apartment. While unloading the truck, Quigley and his hire took 5-10 minutes in between each trip out to the truck and back. Please note that my apartment is directly next to the half-flight of stairs, which is directly next to the entrance that the truck was parked in front of. I did inform them of the elevator, and they chose not to use it. They spent that time standing around talking by the truck in between bringing in loads. At one point, Quigley texted me asking if I would run down to the Plaid Pantry down the road and get the 2 of them something to drink because they were dehydrated. When I did not respond, Quigley's hire disappeared for at minimum 10 minutes, presumably to go to the Plaid Pantry. This meant that again, I was being charged for 2 movers while 1 of them was not working and the other was averaging 1 load of 3 boxes at a time every 10-15 minutes. Between finally unloading the truck and waiting for me to complete the payment with Jeff via phone (Quigley asked me to call Jeff to make the payment while telling me that he did not know the name of the person I would be talking to), Quigley and his hire did not leave until around 9pm. They finished unloading around 8:15pm. Quigley did not tell me the cost or show me any paperwork before or after I called, spoke to Jeff, and made the payment via Zelle. When I went back to my previous apartment to clean and return my keys, I also found that multiple items had been left in my closet (2 small boxes and 3 nested litter boxes), meaning that despite taking an excessive amount of time to load the truck, they still did not load all of my belongings. They had asked and I had confirmed several times that everything needed to be loaded and transported to the new apartment. My apartment was packed and ready to load when they arrived. Additionally, I have found at least 1 item that they damaged during the move. This job should have taken the 3-4 maximum hours as quoted. Instead, I was charged $930. 3 hours x $140 per hour = $420."

    Sofa damage Oct. 28

    Warning: Property damage & No Accountability We hired Goat Movers on October 28, 2025 to move our last few items. They requested a $100 deposit over the phone with no contract or paperwork. When they arrived, the two movers were in street clothes with no uniforms or ID, and the truck had no permanent branding--just a magnetic sign on the driver's door. After the move, we paid the remaining $425 balance in cash. No receipt or proof of payment was provided. During the move, multiple items were damaged, including furniture, a floor lamp, and the threshold at our new home. They even clogged our toilet by flushing baby wipes. We have photos documenting the damage in this order: 1. Threshold damage 2. Sofa/furniture damage 3. Floor lamp damage - front view 4. Floor lamp damage - close-up 5. Cushion stain from wet driveway This service is not a professional moving company. There is no accountability, no documentation, and a high risk of property damage.

    Our dishes were wrapped in cling wrap. On the bottom are the glasses with the heavier items on top.

    Do NOT use GOAT Movers. We used them to pack our house. They arrived without tape guns. They didn't have markers to mark our boxes, we had to give them ours. They took statues that were displayed in a glass case and put them in a box without wrapping anything around them. Two are now broken. They wrapped all of our breakable dishes in cling wrap and put heavy items on top of them. They failed to tape the bottom of a box sufficiently and when I lifted it, the contents spilled out onto my garage floor. They used bubble wrap on two items, yet charged me $50 for a roll of bubble wrap. I spent my weekend redoing their work. I asked for a full refund, they said no. I asked for a partial refund and they said they would get back to me. It's been weeks and I have heard nothing. I have pictures to demonstrate.

    Trey and Michael were fantastic. Not simply at effortlessly hauling house contents up a boat ramp,…read morebut in their friendly 'can do' attitude which really reduced the overall stress (something others have commented on). Scheduling was easy and the cost very reasonable. I cannot recommend highly enough.

    Two moves, and I'm going to be very generous with 2 stars…read more The first move took much, much longer than it should have with three guys, and they unfortunately didn't realize I grew up speaking Spanish (I'm mixed but white presenting) and said some highly unfavorable things for professionals. While the guy who did my paperwork seemed nice, it was way over the top like he was trying to ingratiate himself with me for a better tip. The questions he was asking me were personal and invasive and just left me feeling uncomfortable and wanting to get away from him. Unfortunately this is the reality of being a woman, often, is men mistake your kindness for familiarity when he should have just stuck to being a professional doing his job. This second, and LAST move I will ever hire Bridgetown for, I booked a move with three guys and the same size truck as my previous move. I specifically wanted a company who knew how much stuff I had (we ran out of room, the first time, and I had to leave several items behind). The issues started at booking, when my estimate arrived with my deposit, and the quote read $0...I checked in with Devon and she said my move was still booked, the quote was just a system error (but didn't fix the issue of an hourly rate for 3 guys...but ok...), the confirmation text I received a a few days before my move caused me minor panic because she listed the wrong date...OOPS her bad, but it's fine, all is well, ok... But, the day comes, and TWO men show up with a much smaller than expected truck. I ask about the 3rd guy? Oh well yea his work order says it's supposed to be 3, the paperwork he hands me says 3...I call Devon and yep oops "Dispatch" (aka one of the owners apparently?) "made a mistake and sent the wrong crew due to a paperwork mixup." Folks, when I tell you this would have been an absolutely nightmarish scenario that would have cost me my last shred of sanity due to all the BS I've been dealing with, it can't be underestimated how p'd off I was. Luckily for me, I have terrible anxiety and bc my last move took so many hours, I haven't been able to sit still and had taken *sixteen* carloads of moving bags over myself before the movers ever arrived. I wanted this move to go so much smoother than the last, and I had two afternoon appointments for various maintenace and install issues with my new house that day of the move. I booked three men and huge truck specifically to make the move fast and easy. If I had not absolutely destroyed my body (thank you, anxiety, for apparently seeing the future and that something would in fact massively go wrong) taking allllll that stuff myself over two weeks after I got my keys on the 1st, there is ZERO shot everything would have fit on the truck, not even half my stuff would have fit. And as a reminder, I specifically booked Bridgetown because they had an inventory from my previous move. I was in the end charged the minimum rate, to "apologize" for the "mixup," but having to explain to Devon and to the two man crew why this was all so frustrating and upsetting is insane to me. I booked 3 guys, giant truck, with BM specifically who had my inventory because I knew how much stuff I had to move. They caused me at least 10 more gray hairs that day. I will never, ever, be using your services again.

    As you can see, I normally leave positive reviews if I am impressed, and almost never any negative…read morecomment if I am disappointed. However, I feel compelled to write a negative one for this company. I got an in-person estimate from this company, which was $1295.72. I got multiple estimates, but no other company could beat this. So I hired them. We packed more than 90% of the things by ourselves. I attached photos taken at the time of home inspection performed 5 weeks prior to the move. See garage packed with boxes and living space with very few items left. Remember this is 5 weeks prior to the move. We kept putting things in storage spaces into garage. Also, since the new house is just a street away, we kept moving things by ourselves after the close date. By the time the mover arrived, there were few things left that needed to be packed. On the day of the move, they called me asking if they needed to bring anything. I asked them to bring several boxes for unpacked items. They ended up using only 5 boxes as Bill of Landing shows. Both my wife and I helped them. My wife packed almost all kitchen items since they required special care. I moved electronics (PCs, TVs, printers, etc) by myself without packing. After everything was done, they tried to charge me over $4000, but after taking a look at my puzzled face, a lead man spoke with the management, it came down to $2574.60. However, this was still twice as much as the estimate. He did not give me any warning that the final charge would be significantly higher than the estimate. I posted my initial review, and Robert called me the next day, and he said in an accusatory voice that the price went up because everything was not packed and they needed extra time packing. Give me a break! The average packing specialist costs $60 per hour. So, $1279 ($2574.60 minus $1295.72) is equivalent to 21 hours of packing. The fact is, the estimator underestimated the amount of items we had and the time it took to load/ unload them. We had two large bookcases (143" wide, and 110" wide) that needed to be separated and joined. As a result, they needed to run the truck twice. A website entitled "The Top 10 Moving Scams" says, "An 'estimator' who does a quick walk-through of your home without opening cabinets and taking note of exactly what you plan to move is going to be way off the mark." Also, in the process of moving, they broke several items, one of which was missing a part. I brought it to the lead man's attention at the end of the move. All he said was, "I will look for the missing part in our truck, and get back to you," but he never did. He did not mention anything about filing a claim. These items were not expensive, and I was not necessarily asking for compensation. All I was hoping was honest disclosure (whoever broke it should know) and prompt follow-up (the lead man did not contact me, unsure whether he even tried to find the missing part). If I had simply called them to file a claim, I am sure they would have accused me of not telling the crew on the spot, and made the filing process almost impossible. On the other hand, if a customer brings it to the crew's attention on the spot like I did, they will say,"OK, let us check, and we will get back to you," and they don't. Either way, they dodge customer's filing. After seeing my review, they called me immediately and turned their fault into mine saying, "you did not pack everything! You could have filed a claim for damaged items. It is clearly written in the contract!" I am taking this case to Small Claims Court.

    These guys worked so hard & so quickly! They made moving simple & a very positive experience!read more
