Dave(?) arrived 10 minutes late and other guy about 25 minutes late. Dave was literally an Ogre, so he lived up to the company’s name. Seemed mad at the world and almost disrespectful. He upset my 30 year old son so much that my son asked me to not tip and I almost agreed to not tip. Both guys were strong and efficient movers after they arrived. Other Ogre was nice and very respectful. Dave also arrived with his Pit Bull dog. Not cool considering my close friend was mauled by two dogs in Pennsylvania two before our move. I would not use these guys again

Mover's response:
Sir we have a 1 hour arrival window for all jobs, we both arrived on time. 2nd, Mad at the world? Sir we show up to your job and the first thing you say is your wife tested positive for covid and is under quarantine, you then started walking away to do the walk thru and under your breath said you also had covid as well, putting our safety at risk. And then was like pulling teeth to get you to show us a negative covid test and go over protocol to make sure the environment we were in was not subject to contamination. 100s of thousands of people have died from this, we go into multiple homes a day, I wasn't mad at the world, I was mad at you, rightfully so, for putting our safety in jeopardy and our employees families safety in jeopardy, if you had told us this on the phone your job would have been canceled before it started. 3rd after the walk thru you had to waive liability because you had zero moving pads, straps, or anything to protect items for a cross country move, and so instead you had us dog urine saoked comforters, making one of our employees vomit on site, so unacceptable and vile. 4th the owners dog is a service animal and literally was inside his truck with the windows up and the ac on the entirety of his time there and you never once saw or met the dog, and the car was at the end of the driveway on a public street. He is legally allowed to go everywhere, airports, doctors offices, literally everywhere, I'm sorry that happened to your friend that's unfortunate but that's none of our concern as this is a service animal. Additionally, when you hire a company you are paying for a service, you DO NOT own them regardless of what your spoiled son thinks, you are not entitled to ANYTHING but getting the job done correct and professionally, (which is was), nothing more.

I would absolutely recommend this company.

The two men who came to help us, Xavier and Tyrone, were some of the most helpful and efficient guys I’ve ever met! They were able to help me and my husband load of all of our belongings in less than 2 hours!!!

They went above and beyond my expectations, and I am so glad I went with Ogre Man Movers!

David was also a big help regarding scheduling and getting everything coordinated!

Thanks again y’all! (-:

Great job. On time. Prepared. Quick but very careful. Very professional. Very courteous. Can not say enough good things about the three men who unloaded the POD and helped rearrange some furniture.

Pros:
Very friendly, good-natured guys. Got the job done quickly and were very easy to work with

Cons:
Arrived late, left early (worked for about 2.5 hours, still charged for full 3 hours)
They left early but missed a couple boxes, including our large TV. I called them back as they were walking away and one of them ran back and shoved the TV box into the very front of the 2nd container which was much more loosely packed than I would have liked. After that, I had a couple of straggler boxes, a vacuum cleaner, etc. that I kept out to clean the house, and I had to unpack and re-pack the last 6' of the container because the packing was very haphazard.

Lastly, when I was repacking the container, I found a bunch of trash, including half-full soda cans that we had given to the workers, thrown into the container. Some of these had leaked and gotten onto the boxes or our other possessions. I had trash bags set out in the house, why would they just throw their spillable trash in with the rest of our belongings? That made me pretty angry.

Mover's response:
Sorry you weren't happy with your move. We have a 1 hour arrival window, the crew was right on time. Additionally it is clearly stated on hireahlpers website that we do not refund unused time, as we book our days according to the times people reserve and otherwise people would reserve the whole day and because we move very quickly might get the job done only a few ours causing us to lose countless jobs and money. No business would be able to be run that way, on hireahleper you lay for the time you reserve. Also the container was packed to the gills, you're not supposed to pack the last six inches of a pod (clearly stated on their website), otherwise the pod door won't open and will have to be cut off. We kept explaining this to you and you demanded we try and fit it in, we explained we packed it the way we recommend as you got a container way to small, 6' barely fits 10 items if that, you insisted, so we did what you asked against our recommendation. I apologize if a drink got mixed in with a blanket and got knocked over, we don't remember that happening as we clean up all of our job sites, bit if it did we apologize. Best of luck with the rest of your move, Ogre Man Movers
