Great experience working with Carlton Moving. Punctual, polite and very efficient. They took good care of moving our furniture including our piano. Thank you. I would highly recommend them.

Carlton’s Moving Company was great to work with. They came on time and got straight to work. They packed my PODS container with care and even offered me shipping straps that I didn’t have to buy on my own. From the way that they packed my container, I knew that they were very experienced.

I would recommend this moving company to anyone that wants to make their moving experience hassle free!

Carlton’s was okay - they called me the night before to confirm everything was a go. When my truck didn’t arrive the following day, as scheduled, I had to pay a $140 rescheduling fee to move them to the following night. The following night they texted they’d be there around 4, then around 5 called to say they’d be there around 6. The guys were friendly and nice and moved everything, but I’m unsure of the logic they used with moving. By the time they left, I had an elliptical in my kitchen, my living room had no furniture but an unstable mound of boxes, my dressers were on their side (stood up) in my bedroom, and my couches were stood on their side in the extra bedroom. It’s not clear to me why they didn’t put the boxes in the room as they were labeled and start with the big furniture to ensure every piece at least got respectively close to its designated area. Also, I found tv boxes (clearly labeled “this side up”) on their sides, boxes labeled fragile under boxes of books, etc.
I had to stay down with my items so didn’t see how fast the guys were moving, but was surprised it took 6 man-hours to move a two bed, one-bath 1000 sqft apartment (for context, it took me 4 man-hours to move out of my elevator-less 3-story 1200 sqft previous apartment).
Would I use them again? Yeah
Would they be my first choice? Naw

They were wonderful and made the arduous moving process almost fun. Carlton was great about keeping me updated on their schedule and making sure everything was set before the move.
