They arrived on time. Unloaded in timely manner. They were very helpful. They unloaded a Penske moving truck. We had a steep driveway and couldn’t back the truck up the driveway. The movers went up and down the driveway without hesitation. I’m extremely happy with the job they did.

Based on what they want a review on they did a good job and would get a 4 star rating: The movers were on time, respectful, professional and very attentive to my needs. I was so impressed, I gave them a big tip.

When I got the Pod delivered to my moving destination and had to unpack what was packed by 5 Star Moving my rating changes to a 1. I had a one hundred year old cherry wood dining room table. They put it upside down with no blanket on the bottom of my sofa. They destroyed a family heirloom. Deep scratches from the metal on the bottom of the sofa ruined my beautiful mint condition table. Similarly, they did not wrap the leaves for the table and just placed them on top of each other on a metal shelf from my garage. Completely scratched and broken.

So while they were nice and professional, they had no idea how to pack and protect property. I would never recommend them.

Mover's response:
We asked on the day of booking to please have 2 blankets for each wood item for protection. When we arrived they had no blankets which is a terrible start. We asked if they wanted to go grab blankets or go to the nearest home depo to grab moving pads anything to provide protection. They refused they wanted to save money. We always recommend pads blankets protection. The moving pods shift during transport so always use protection and straps and rope

They did a great job moving items from my Mother's house to a Pod/. We provided blankets and wrap with no damage being shipped from SC to Texas. Would recommend.

We had a fairly small amount, couple rooms of furniture loaded into a pod storage unit.
The crew was on time, courteous and finished in plenty of time.
No issues.

I really appreciated the extra effort the 5 Star Moving team made to get me unpacked. They were friendly and welcoming and took a lot of stress off of me in unloading my PODS container. They were timely in their arrival, careful, and approachable. Thank you!

These gentlemen did a great job, were very efficient and fast at getting all of the furniture and boxes loaded, very courteous the entire time and were nice to put up with me “helping!”
