With less than 12 hours' notice, I called Ultimate Movers, and the owner immediately went above and beyond to help. He worked hard to put together a crew on such short notice and made sure everything was moved safely into a storage unit. The crew worked until 11:00 PM to get everything taken care of, and their dedication, professionalism, and kindness did not go unnoticed. I cannot express how grateful we are to have had such incredible people step in during such a difficult time and help us when we needed it most. The owner was excellent at communicating throughout the entire process and was quick to find solutions despite the challenges. My family and I will never forget the compassion and generosity that Ultimate Movers showed us. Thank you, Ultimate Movers, for turning an incredibly stressful situation into one that felt manageable. We will always be grateful.

Absolutely the worst experience moving ever! Everything seemed great until they showed up. We had…read morephone calls, texts and even a walk through where John even took notes. We felt confident. Boy were we wrong! $15k down the drain. Everything became a complaint or an argument. We had picked them specifically because they said they would build a crate for the lathe and charged another $1000 to do it. On the day John argued he would not move it and had never agreed to. Much less build a crate for it. I ended up providing makeshift materials and show them how to safely move it. When it got here things were bent and broken. While getting boxes in the truck two of them kept pushing each other around like two little kids. They eventually dropped a bed frame on the hardwood floor and then one pretended to be hurt. We saw it. It never touched him but he screamed it broke his foot and was bleeding. Yet somehow he had no issues moving boxes. The same two guys kept pushing each other around until finally one was thrown right where a snow plow was being moved. The plow flipped over and narrowly missed his foot! I turned white. The truck they brought was not big enough. They had to go and offload it and return. That took them 4 hours. We had to walk behind them around the house because they would constantly not grab all the boxes from rooms but close the door and say it was all done. Always an argument ensued. Things like yard equipment, glass and awkwardly shaped things were taken separately on the truck. When these guys arrived they had two trucks and just 3 people. As they opened the truck I saw one of my generators sitting upside down! The lathe was loosely strapped to the side of the truck sitting on the same material I provided. Things on it were bent and broken from bouncing around. All the yard equipment and awkwardly shaped items were just stuck in tall garment boxes. Trim pieces from my truck I had just painted were scratched and rubbed through. Ruined. Boxes were crushed. The guy with the "broken foot" kept limping around. John hardly did anything. Boxes were placed any which way pretty much anywhere. We had to insist and argue for boxes to be taken where they belonged. Things that went into storage were just chucked in and boxes placed right at the entrance. It was a mess. We gave up on having the furniture put back together as we just wanted them to leave.

Two guys showed up with a huge truck; took about 2 hours to load and drove the 60+ miles to my new home. I explained that I would have to leave before they finished, so I could drive back to Dearborn in the daylight (eyesight issues). That's when it all fell apart. I went back the next day to find plastic wrap strewn around the house, leaves all over the inside of the house, items left wrapped, a dirty bathroom and smoke smell. I contacted Fordson, and was told a slew of lies the worker told him; He said I told them not to enter the garage, FALSE. He said he couldn't find anywhere to dispose of the plastic wrap - THERE WAS A GARBAGE CAN IN THE DRIVEWAY NEXT TO THEIR TRUCK, I was told they aren't responsible for cleaning up after the job. I told Fordson I felt taken advantage of, being alone and older, and that his employee was lying. They made no accommodation and essentially blew me off once they were paid. My Advise: WATCH THEM EVERY MINUTE and make sure a man is around. They will lie and cheat and take advantage of a single woman. BEWARE.

I had to think long and hard about writing this review because I grew up with the philosophy "if…read moreyou don't have anything nice to say - then don't say anything at all". That being said - I don't want others to fall into the trap I did. My experience was similar to the many other voices here on yelp. I was provided with an "estimated hours time" to complete my move . . . everything in the house was packed and ready to load. Three men showed up late. One young guy was on his phone every time I walked outside to check progress on loading. A completely rude man kept asking to use my bathroom and then informed me I was out of toilet paper and did I have more. Needless to say I had a clogged toilet. They took more than twice the anticipated time to load the truck and behaved outrageously when I said I didn't have enough cash to pay them (since I planned for half the time). The man wanted to stay (alone) in my empty house while I went to the bank to get money. What kind of legitimate business demands payment in cash?! But the real reason I am writing this review is because most of what I loaded into the truck went into storage for a year. I just moved again and was able to unpack my things......crushed storage boxes, soo many broken items I can't even count, damaged furniture AND my very expensive commercial sized treadmill is broken. The day of the move I watched the bathroom idiot try to pick up the console by himself and as I was beginning to say, "don't....." - he dropped it upside down on my concrete drive. I was hopeful that since it was wrapped in foam and moving blankets it would be safe - but I should have known better. When I called the owner he started swearing at me and insisting everything was my fault and his men told him I was "difficult". Don't trust this man/company with your possessions! The clowns he hires to do the moving are unprofessional, rude, lazy and don't give a poo about how they treat your items.

They took great care in moving our furniture, even navigating super heavy pieces through narrow spaces with finesse. Many boxes of delicate kitchenware were moved without any issues or breakage. They were happy to move stuff into the right rooms and position/set things up to make our lives easier. The move did end up take 1.5 hours longer than quoted, which was $$ more, but I think some of our furniture pieces were heavier than expected and we probably ended up with more boxes than expected.

I spoke to Clarence who identified himself not as the owner but as the manager (more on that…read morelater). The initial Red Flag was during the conversation I mentioned the need for certain documentation from him to go forward (Basically licensing information, and Insurance Information) as asking for a Certificate of Insurance (COI) is INDUSTRY STANDARD for a move like this. I received IMMEDIATE Push Back and was told that I didnt need said information and that I could get his licensing and bonding information from LARA (Michigan Licensing And Regulatory Affaris) which I did: [Federal License: They hold a valid federal license under USDOT #2303845] and their other license [They are registered as a domestic profit corporation in Michigan (ID: 800705051)] What i couldn't get is Bonding and or the COI ...which i need to protect ny inventory and myself from damage, and or loss. As I said this is Industry standard. I explained this to Clarence and was told that I would recieve that information at a later time after further discussions. Fast forward I talked to Clarence yesterday to confirm that he would recieve an inventory list by no later than close of Business today 5/8/2026 !! He's assured me at the time of our last phone call that that was suitable. We stayed late into the evening yesterday creating an itemized inventory list for Clarence.....only to be told today that he couldn't do it because he has another big move scheduled for "The Government" i dont know how true this is but I find it highly suspicious that 1) he did t call this morning to let us know that he couldn't complete the move which most assuredly could be the case......but in the name of professionalism and the time we have spent on the phone wouldn't it be standard to let us know? Secondly in MY OPINION I think he didnt like the verbiage that was used in the inventory email j. That it specifically asked again for the COI, and ending information as is STANDARD in this business. in our first conversation he told me that he had never been asked for that type of information before and I explained to him at that point, that when doing business with multi million dollar businesses you have to do everything right, he then went kn to tell me how many rich people from the lions and mentioned doing a move for the Taubman estate etc....which is fine but asking for a COI is standard......I feel as if Clarence is operating without being Bonded or without the proper insurance to protect not only the belongings of my company but of anybody he is moving. Again this is my opinion based off of my conversations with him and his subversive responses. He may very well have these very important documents and insurance im not saying that he doesn't what I am saying is that people need to be careful. He has cause me to lose valuable time. I did however call another moving company who gave me without question the documents that I asked for and I am looking forward to this move albeit at a higher price than expected. I would simply like to remind Mr. Clarence (Still dont know why he didnt identify himself as the owner instead of making it appear as he was someone else employed there) thay doing good business is paramount to being g considered great in the business world I own a Mortage company and a Real Estate Brokerage the referrals alone could have netted you a an upwards of six additional figures a year... but you moved Mr. Taubman so maybe you didnt need the business we could have thrown your way. People be very careful and cross all "T's" and dot all "I's" Time was wasted here and after reading the reviews on here and on Google as well as further research I now understand why MY Response to His Response: Sir at NO TIME, ot ONCE, have said anything Negative about YOU or Your Business what I did HONESTLY and EFFECTIVELY was communicate my experience with your business. What I did attempt to do is offer some of what I hoped would be deemed as valuable feed back from one Black Business owner to another. As far as me claiming to be a CEO I never stated that; What I DID say was that I am a success bussineman. As far as me being a disgruntled ex or former employee... sir I can surely attest to you that we do not know each other nor have we ever met outside of the few conversations that we had. What I can tell you is this: I tried to use this as a learning experience for you,your business and for the consumer who doesn't think about things like insurance that movers are supposed to have when moving their belongings personal or professional and what amount of liability is covered in the case of property being damaged, lost or stolen and how to protect themselves as well as trying to help you with the refinement of your communication skills. I felt that I was obligated as a black professional to make sure I did my due diligence to help you better yourself and your business as others have done for me jn the same context

And one more thing---as to threatening some 'white man who I don't know'...... Clarence Joe Nelson…read moreinappropriately involved his 'friend' indicating that his 'friend' was going to charge me $2300 for delivering my medical property that had NEVER been placed in climate controlled storage. Clarence Joe Nelson lied on his 'friend' who had no involvement and who I trust runs a reputable business. Unsure why Clarence Joe Nelson has to specify his friend's race as that should not be an issue in friendship, in business or in the world in general. As importantly, friends should not tell lies on friends. Clarence Joe Nelson, you know your 'friend' did not say what you alleged he said. Respect that man and keep his good name out of your bad mouth. Update--same day! I'm so glad that Clarence Joe Nelson is now confessing all of his lies. Perhaps he is not a hopeless case??? As long as he was overcharging me, being a bully and just outright lying while doing a money grab each month, there was no problem. Clarence Joe Nelson has written a lot that can be distracting and a bit humorous. The fact is that he was paid for a job, did it improperly and lied about it. At no time did he have permission to leave my property in a moving truck. Perhaps this is special service for friends and family? It seems he's told so many lies that he's believing them himself. Rather than resolving this matter, he digs his heels deeper into the mire of his own creation, all while attempting to sully the good name of those he 'loves'. What CJN is driven by is avarice, false pride, and an unhallowed disregard for the truth and righteous behavior. He awakens to spew lies from his mouth and to manipulate and bully anyone who he can--especially if you happen to be a woman. Doing what is right and just is a foreign concept to him. It shouldn't be, because he was taught better. I know he was. He has chosen to secure himself in a house of lies that is impervious only to the truth. Yes, I am a doctor as CJN keeps emphatically stating. However, my area of expertise is not in diagnosing those with serious mental challenges. As Clarence Joe Nelson continues to post in this format, certainly several diagnoses for which I really think he needs to seek treatment do come to mind. I chuckle when thinking that the last time I encountered anyone who could match Clarence Joe Nelson in lying was when I was in I was in 8th grade. Perhaps CJN is still there mentally. Update 10/08/2025: For each lie Clarence Joe Nelson (CJN) and Top Notch posts, I'll post the truth. Move date--7/2023. I've posted a pix of a text from CJN (dated 9/02/2025) confessing that he has kept my medical items in his truck--not in storage. As indicated, I paid 710/month for one year then a minimum of $1000/mo for 13 months up thru 7/2025 only to find out CJN lied about having my items in storage. We are in agreement on one matter--he should feel stupid because stupid is as stupid does. When a business owner has the audacity to cheat a customer and then attempt to disparage their reputation, that's a really, really stupid move. Update 10/07/2025: Unfortunately this issue has not been resolved, but has deteriorated. My personal and professional property is now being held hostage and the owner, Clarence Joe Nelson, is making threats of taking some unreasonable action against me although he is 100% in the wrong and admitted he did not fulfill the contract---I've got proof if anyone is interested. Freedom of information is a good thing. I'm gagged at the fact that at the time of my move, I rewarded the owner with a hefty $$$ tip. He deserves the 2025 "SHAME ON YOU AWARD"! Requested packing up my medical office and home items and storage of all items in a climate controlled environment. The home packing went well. The office pack up was unsupervised and many items were left. I had to hire another mover to pack and store the remaining items. I've been paying a hefty price over the past 24 months to store my items, only to have the owner of Top Notch, Clarence Joe Nelson, disclose to me that he never off loaded my medical office equipment into storage, but has kept them on his moving truck all this time. That is a Bottom Rung thing for a business to do!!! If anyone is interested, I've got receipts of every payment I've made and text messages from the owner admitting that my items have not been properly stored. This is so DISTRESSING.
