They were three and a half hours late. No phone call, we had to call hire a helper.
They took two hours longer because several of the guys just standing around. They only worked from just one location. (In comparison, when we got to our destination, it took 2 hrs less, with a man less, helping divide the truck between two places, storage and house).
I wanted the truck to load in a certain way to make unloading easier(front of truck storage, back residence). They ignored me and loaded it the way they wanted. Then they loaded book boxes on particle board shelf, and destroyed two bookcases. They broke an antique mirror that has been moved several times by professional movers over a 50 year period.
Who am I? I have been driving a truck for 22 years OTR.

Mover's response:
We were not late...you had an afternoon job, we called upon booking it and said there was a morning job and we would get to your job as soon as possible. Upon getting their and giving a discount and having broken and damaged item you harassed the crew non stop we almost picked up and left but couldn't not finish your job because we are professional. We also notified HireAHelper of your foul behavior it also takes 5 hours to loaf 26' trucks not 2...thanks for your business. Ogre man movers llc

Nothing but positive things to say about Dave and his crew. I asked for two guys and he shows up with four at no extra charge! Very professional packing job, took the time to do it right but also did it very quickly.

I used Ogre Man Movers to load my rented 16 foot truck and they did a great job. I drove the truck from so. cal. to no. cal. and had a different company unload the truck. Ogre Man was far superior than the company who had the easier unloading job. I thought I would have to pack the truck, but Ogre Man also did that. The crew leader was great, his helpers were just ok.

They were late but when they showed up they did a fantastic job. The owner of Ogre Man did answer my calls when they where late, then i had to call HireAHelper and they followed up on when the laborers will arrive.

I would definitely hire them again. They did an awesome job & all my items arrived at our new location with little or no damage. I under estimated the time frame and they worked tirelessly to get the job done. Job well done.

First off, they never called to confirm the appointment. I had to call them several times, left two messages, and still got no response until I contacted HireAHelper directly and got them involved. Then the movers didn't show up during the scheduled time of 11-12, so at 12:30 I tried calling them, and again no answer. Again, I had to contact HireAHelper directly and they were able to get in touch with the movers, who said they were running late but would be there within the hour. I waited two more hours, and still nothing--not even a phone call to keep me updated. I contacted HireAHelper again, and they were able to schedule a new moving team to come over within the hour.

I would not recommend Ogre Man Movers as their communication was very poor and I ended up waiting around all day for nothing which was extremely frustrating. However, HireAHelper was great throughout this stressful process, so 5 stars for them!

Mover's response:
Sorry for the inconvenience we played phone tag for over a week...and the job we were on was booked for two hours thru HireAHelper as well but took 8..we kept u informed all day even with no phone service and had HireAHelper switch you our crews to accommodate your move as fast as possible...sorry for the inconvenience again.

They were within the given arrival time frame. The actual movers (Albert & Antonio) were fantastic. They made quick work of both loading and unloading and were very professional. There was miscommunication from the confirmation person (day before) of a change from 2 to 3 movers. The 2 that showed up had to deal with a piano that should have been handled by 3. Those 2 did a good job. I would definitely hire them again.
