The two men that helped pack our pod were very nice. They showed up about 15 minutes late, but when they got there, they worked their TAILS off in 95 degree weather. They packed the back of our trailer like tetris. We NEVER could have gotten all of our stuff into the moving container without their help. My only complaints are that 1. I saw a mover drop our flat screen television on the street and he never pointed it out to me. I didn't want to deal with a confrontation, so I didn't say anything - luckily we found out that the tv still worked after the move. 2. Our dresser had a chip out of the back and one of our nightstands got a gnarly scratch across the top of it - but they're both from ikea so I wasn't all that concerned. Besides, it was partly our fault for not providing enough moving blankets. I don't fault the movers for that. I gave them both a good tip and lunch for helping us with what could have been a much more difficult move. I would use them again.

Mover's response:
We apologize for the misunderstanding, we set your tv box down to re grip it because you did not tape the bottom correctly and the tv started falling thru so we saved the tv and then adjusted our grip. In regards to the blankets that is why we stated that once we ran out of your blankets we could no longer insure your items because you did not have or want to get more blankets to protect your items. You told us to keep packing and so we did. We really appreciate your business. Ogre Man Movers

Confirmed appointment

Showed up on time to a place that was not easy to find!

Both guys had a great smile and a great attitude.

Never complained even when I rented a u-haul truck without a ramp! (did not know ramps were an option!!)

Had straps and dolly.

Moving sucks and they made it easier.

Thank you!

Mover's response:
Thanks for such a great review, and yes ramp or no ramp, rain, sleet, or snow, we will get your job done in a safe efficient manner. We really appreciate your business, thanks again. Ogre Man Movers llc

Albert and Dwayne arrived a bit ahead of schedule and set right to work. They were fast, efficient and courteous. Albert came to us in the last few minutes of the two hours and told us they would have to charge an additional $50 even if they worked a minute over. We were able to finish the last tiedown on our own and appreciated the courtesy of the warning. Great job!

Mover's response:
Thanks again for your business, and we always move furniture as if it were our own and believe that it shows in our work. We always keep customers apprised of time in case they have a set amount to spend on moving we want the customer to always know what and when they are being charged so their is never any surprises. Thanks again, Ogre Man Movers llc

They showed up pretty close to on time, they were polite and helpful, and they didn't try to nickel and dime us on a time limit. They weren't gentle but they still did a good job and I would hire them again in the future.

(1) 7/2/2013 Long Beach

My experience leading up to the move was great. John was very friendly; their rate was reasonable and the prior reviews gave me confidence that all would go well. On the day that the work was to be completed, the movers were supposed to show around 1pm. I paid an additional fee to U-Pack (separate service) to guarantee that my relocubes would be there by 1, which they were. To make a very long afternoon and story short, they did not arrive until 9pm. The movers were scheduled on another job in Pasadena that went longer than anticipated. Then, there was heavy traffic to get to Long Beach. Why there were not reserves on hand is the most maddening to me. The company discounted me 35% but I frankly thought it should have been more. Moving is stressful enough as it is.

Mover's response:
Before booking your job we stressed that we had 5 jobs that day split between two crews, and that we could accommodate you until after 5 pm., you agreed so we booked your job. Our job before yours went over their reserved time and we don't just leave jobs incomplete so we called you and notified you of the situation. We finished and immediately came to your job fighting through rush hour traffic and unloaded you in record time. We also gave 35% off for the delay. Thanks, Ogre Man Movers llc

Did a great job, lots of energy and moved quickly. Friendly too! They were a little late, but made up for it by moving quickly. I would recommend them!

Mover's response:
Sorry again the 405 at rush hour can be unforgiving. Were glad we were able to get you moved in so quickly so that you could start relaxing after your long move. Thanks again for your business and welcome to sunny California. Ogre Man Movers llc
