    Movers

    Terrible services over payment issue. I purchased 3 hour move that went over 15 mins. Movers attempted to charge me for a full hour. When declining to pay for full extra hour, movers and supervisor became disrespectful. Granted $400 was paid more than the price given of 360, Movers left washer and dryer at the end of the road due to stating supervisor instructed them to do so. Let's not mention one of movers decided to take a crap in my restroom without permission. When asked why they could pull washer and dryer into garage as a courtesy for crapping in my bathroom, the mover declined. I proceeded to take a picture of the truck and movers for the driver (red) shirt try to hide and proceed to tell me "Fuck you" multiple times, then hopped in the moving truck and abruptly left. Overall lying and trying to get more money, using restroom without permission and inappropriate conduct with a consumer, I would say the worst experience ever been through! Please be aware of using them.

    Rigo is so rude and they damaged my dining room table because they didn't wrap it. Rigo told me "it's not like you're going to dispose of it" right, but it's brand new and it shouldn't have happened in the first place. He told me not to threaten him when I kindly let him know that I would not be using this company again. It's not a threat, it's a fact.

    Dresser that scratched and broken.

    *** LONG POST MUST READ!!*** If I could give 0 stars I would!This company will damage your stuff and not pay for it! They are rude and unprofessional please use another company. I used TELEPORT MOVERS LLC- MICHAEL'S MOVERS on Friday, October 06, 2023, to move into my apartment. I also used this company to move out on July 15, 2023. I witnessed the mover (the guy with the cross tattoo on his neck) drop my counter-height stools causing scratches, and slam my TV stand causing it to crack and a hole in the back. My boxes were all messed up and smashed causing some of my dishware to break. My dresser drawer was scratched and the track came out. My bedframe also has a chunk missing out of the wood. In total, it was a total of $1,492 worth of merchandise that was damaged during the moves and all I asked was for them to fix my dresser or at least give me $200 to purchase a new one. In total, I paid them $320 plus a $30 tip (a deposit of $120 was paid through Zelle and the reminder $230 was in cash). I contacted them immediately after the mover left on October 06, 2023, letting the company know of the damages the representative got angry with me and hung up. I proceeded to call back twice and they sent me straight to voicemail and processed to text me asking for pictures of the damages. I provided pictures immediately and the rest on Saturday because they laid my mattress against my dresser. After not hearing back on that day (Saturday), the following business day (Monday) I went to both addresses that they had listed on their website and they were not at either location. I then proceeded to call and spoke with Linda who told me they were reviewing my case. She said it could take 3-5 business( from Saturday) days so I called back on Friday 13th, 2023 and they told me they could give me $40 because they sent a form that I signed saying that I was aware of the damage on my furniture which I was not aware that I was signing a document stating that. I informed Linda that both times they did not let me read the paperwork, go over the paperwork, they told me were signing as they were rushing and they also did not stay around to let me look at my furniture to report anything. I was initially told when they started the claim that they could see that they moved me in and out and had to figure out which mover was responsible. Which didn't make sense because either way the company as a whole should be responsible. I Clarified that all the calls are recorded and Linda said yes. I provided them with 19 pictures and videos of the damages and they still only trying to give me $40 for the inconvenience.

    These guys are super fast, but in their haste they either managed to improperly store my TV on the truck or damaged it somewhere during the moving process. Now I have a smart TV that has vertical busted pixels which is common because something hit it. As a result, I am going to have to buy a new TV. I probably should have known something was up given a normal move for me takes closer to 2-3 hours and they were done in 1.5 hours. The day of the move, I emailed them with a picture of the busted TV. After calling them at the end of the next day they requested a photo of the actual box to verify the issue. The person who I talked to (who I think is the owner) claimed they could not be responsible for the damage because the TV box is not damaged. Unfortunately, that's not how smart TVs work. Based on that logic, I could have easily damaged the box and showed negligence on their part and then they would have no argument against me. When I sent a photo of the box, the owner then noticed something black in the box. That was a piece of black cardboard which he thought (at least initially) was something which could have caused damage to the TV. Just because the box isn't damaged and secure in styrofoam, that doesn't mean something could not hit or or jam into the box either on the truck or moving it up the stairs. It doesn't take much for them have issues. Smart TVs are extremely fragile. I'm not positive but I believe I saw one of the movers carrying the TV over his shoulder in order to be faster instead of safe. That could be the issue or it was not secure in the truck itself. My sister did notice they initially set the TV down on its side instead of right side up, but that's obviously hearsay and I have no photo evidence to say otherwise. Other previous movers have safely moved this TV with the same box and styrofoam so I know it was safe to transport and worked just fine before. After talking on the phone a short time ago, they are not willing to compensate or do anything for me because they do not think they did anything wrong largely because there is no damage to the actual box. I specifically said I was not looking for full value of what I paid for the TV because it's not brand new, but at the very least is they could compensate me some given it did still have some value. I would have accepted a discounted or free move, but this company doesn't seem to care about the customer. It's all about bringing in the money at the fastest rate possible. Side note, they did ding one of my doors when moving furniture which I think I can retouch with paint but definitely adds to my point of not being cautious with items. I did not bring this up during the call because I consider it part of the moving process. They also left some moving blankets/covers at my apartment I know which are cheap, but I'm sure they didn't want to avoid losing them since I think they are a low budget moving company and everything adds to costs. I guess I can also count my blessings as my wooden work desk was not damaged (see photo) since it was half wrapped around the sides/edges but certainly not fully wrapped. I wish I would have taken a photo of the TV being wrapped only on the top using similar methodology but I have no way of disputing this without the photos. It just adds to my argument this company is about speed and not safety of items. I advise caution for anyone else using these guys as a service. They are super fast, but I don't think you can safely trust them with anything valuable or fragile. Hopefully this review finds other potential customers well and paints a full picture of this company. I guess I'm hoping and praying the company comes to their senses and realizes they did something wrong based on this review. I do not typically leave reviews on Yelp or anywhere else unless a company does a spectacular or really bad job. I believe this is my first Yelp review since I can't find a Google listing and I can't review them on Groupon where I originally found them since I didn't purchased their moving voucher. After reading other comments on more specific issues it sounds like the positive reviews had nothing fragile during their move, but when there are issues the company is 0 (and I do mean 0) help or willing to admit fault. I wish I would have done my due diligence more and selected better movers.

Lorenzo and the other 2 guys that helped him were on time, and started right away. There was no wasting time. They busted their tail the whole time with no wasted time. I think it's the first time in about 15 moves I have had to make that nothing was scratched, damaged or broken. Not to mention the quote I got was dead on to what I had to pay. First time ever with a moving company. They were extremely professional and when done I felt I had experienced the most stress free move of my life all due to Lorenzo and his crew. I really can't express how impressed I was with the experience and would highly recommend using them for their next move. If I could give them a 100 out of 10 I would. Thank You Lorenzo and crew for making the move a tremendous success!!! Tom Chicoine

AND they moved a fireproof safe by hand, with sheet strength and a good knowledge of physics. The cherry on top is the value - super-fair, plus a discount for booking through Yelp. Need anything moved, call them!

The team of three men that came to help were very friendly and hard working. They worked so efficiently and were very professional. I am so grateful I choose Firehouse Movers. The quote scared me at first. I have not had to pay for a move in the last 13 years. The team worked hard and were worth every penny. These movers are professionals for sure! If you want your items moved without issues. This is the way to go! I prayed over this move. I prayed and God delivered!

    BEWARE - BAIT-AND-SWITCH PRICING!…read more I rarely leave negative reviews, but my recent experience with this company deserves one. I chose Firehouse Movers because of their glowing Google reviews, and their initial estimate was very competitive. Unfortunately, the final bill was a complete shock. To begin with, they insisted on a virtual estimate and refused to come out in person and assess the job. This was a 5000 sq ft home full of furniture, and I wanted the most accurate estimate possible. I asked multiple times for an in-person estimate, but my requests were declined. By moving day, I had sold two-bedroom sets and several other large pieces of furniture that were included in the original estimate. Even with significantly fewer items to move, the final price was more than double the original estimate. On the day of the move, I somehow went from needing two trucks, as stated in the estimate, to four. And from 9 to 17 total man hours. At the end of a long day, my husband just wanted them gone, so he reluctantly paid the bill before they could log anymore hours. When I called to discuss the bill, Firehouse claimed I had verbally approved the additional associated costs over the phone, citing a recording, which was completely false. I have asked multiple times for this recording, but I have not received it. That was not a small miscalculation. Our move was grossly underestimated. This whole experience felt misleading and dishonest. Stay away.

Our experience was quite different. I understand that the owners of this company are not present for the moves so they may be unaware, but these movers seemed to be amateurs. After the move was completed, the movers left their trash on the curb of our home, including water bottles, and also left partially empty tea bottles inside the house. That alone showed a lack of professionalism and respect for a client's home. During the move, they spent time talking on their phones, which slowed the process down. Several items were also left behind at the original house, forcing us to travel back after the move was completed to retrieve them. Many pieces of furniture were not placed in the correct rooms, which caused additional frustration and ultimately required us to hire another set of hands to help reorganize and move items properly. There was also damage to our belongings. My daughter's $400 dollhouse was broken during the move, mirrors were not attached back to the bedroom sets, and the bed was not put together properly. In addition, multiple parts of our furniture were left at the old house. To make matters even more concerning, my wedding ring also went missing during the move. This entire situation created far more stress than relief on what was already a very demanding day. I explained that as we hired movers specifically to make moving large items easier and less stressful. Unfortunately, this experience was the complete opposite. I truly hope the company takes these concerns seriously and improves their professionalism, accountability, and care when handling customers' homes and belongings. The owner Kristy reached back out after I left a vm and she credited one hour due to certain complaints expressed but after the movers left, we found several other issues. Christine was absolutely amazing with scheduling the move but there has been no follow up since I've expressed several other concerns.
