Did and bad job damaged cabinets by cracking with heavy boxes and will not take responsibility, becareful and watch, beware of what they are doing at all times with this company sheisty, I paid 1 person to help me put my house back together because I am elderly and disabled black woman and he came to my house 20 to 30 minutes before the pod was almost empty I moved in with a full pantry 15 to 20 boxes the hired helpers had to drop these bottom boxes to the floor and cracked not scratch the middle cabinet panels not one but 2 and told there father that I had a random man helping me move please tell me what grown mature woman in her 60s is moving to a downtown area and inviting random men in her home in Kansas City, Missouri make it make sense because she will not be long for this world that we live in, I posted this because these people don't know me from a can of paint and choose to stomp on my character myself being a strong blk Queen with morals and my own money to buy their moving services, I will always defend my character as a god fearing woman, and I am not pressed for money whatsoever If you use Weekend Warrior Moving Becareful and watch your back sheisty and under hand ,you have been warned !!! I Stand 10 toes down Make it Make Sense, Why would I need 5 men to unload 1 pod and pay this company for 3hrs labor for 2 men I'm SMH Conscious signs for the Conscious mind

Mover's response:
This customer had her friends helping with her move. 3 days later, sent a photo of a scratched cabinet door demanding “cash money” We replied to her after speaking with her crew. Our guys witnessed her friend drop a box that she sent pics of with canned goods in it next to the scratched cabinet door, and she is accusing our team of dropping into the cabinet door that she sent photos of. I told her that she would need to have the owner of the property contact us for repair cost and we would handle it with the owner even after telling her that the crew witnessed her friend cause the scratch on the cabinet door. This person was very unprofessional and is a scammer, she is mad because we were not offering her money for a scratch on a small kitchen cabinet door that her friend caused. We Offered to take it up with the landlord/owner of property. she was cursing and yelling on the phone once she realized we weren’t giving her any monies directly for a scratch on a door that her friend caused. We are insured for these kinds of things for if WE cause damages to anything. We want to be sure our customers are compensated appropriately if anything does happen; however Making false claims and just trying to extort cash is not how businesses handle these things. If the actual owner contacts us, then they will be directed to file as well as be told what was witnessed by our crew.

We were incredibly impressed with the four movers sent to us by Weekend Warriors through the Hire-a-Helper network. From the moment they arrived, they were personable, respectful, and clearly knew exactly what they were doing. They treated our belongings with great care and managed to load both our POD and U-Haul truck with remarkable speed and precision.



It was immediately clear that they were seasoned professionals—efficient, coordinated, and thoughtful about how to maximize space and protect our items. We’ve moved many times over the past 40+ years, and we can honestly say this team was among the very best we’ve ever worked with. If we could bring them along for every future move, we absolutely would. Highly recommend.

I want to amend my earlier review to be more clear about what went well and what I felt did not.
What went well: the men were on time, considerate and polite. They went right to work on moving the requested items and carried everything out of the house without damaging anything. A 3rd coworker came that was not expected and he worked as well at no further cost.
What I felt did not go well: I had searched through the POD storage container website for movers who knew how to load a POD correctly and efficiently. Weekend warrior had great reviews. In retrospect the reviews may not have been for how well they loaded a storage unit. These movers did not demonstrate skill in loading our items. We ended up repacking the POD the next day, not just for efficiency but also to wrap and protect the items and position them so they would not get damaged in the move.
My recomendation is that for moving furniture around, help with heavy lifting, carrying items to a truck Weekend Warrior Movers is great. For packing items securely and efficiently i would check elsewhere.

Mover's response:
Disheartening and hopefully they consider using the platform in the future. Customer decided on their own that the guys did not load items securely and chose to rearrange their pod after the job was completed. Nothing was damaged, nothing was loaded improperly, nothing was left unsecured etc… can’t help those that hire us and then decide themselves that they are the moving professionals once we have completed the work in a professional manner. IF this pod is relocated and any items come back damaged, then I will decline any responsibility or claims since customer went back in and repacked the pod after we left.

Weekend Warrior workers were on time and did a great job unloading the moving container. They were very polite and listened to my instructions on where boxes and furniture needed to go. I would definitely hire them again to help with my move.
