even got their names for future moves by Southern Cross Moving. They worked very hard and seemed to accomplish more than we thought they could. Very well satisfied.

Mover's response:
Thank you so much for appreciating hard workers when you see them. Unlike the prior 2 customers who only care about their money. There is a old saying: Skilled labor is not cheap and cheap labor is not skilled. Thank you for noticing the difference. You get what you pay for and do not expect free services. 749 orders complete / 277 - 5 star reviews and only 20 under 5 stars. Cannot please everyone but trust me we all try on every job.

Charged $50 to remove boxes but could not not fit the boxes in their small van. Charged $50 to move small safe. One man with a Dollie. I could have moved it myself. Crew only stayed 2 hours and did not finish unwrapping.

Mover's response:
Are you kidding me??? You had Corey and Troy on your job two of my best movers. I am sorry you wanted extra services and did not expect to pay for them. The amount of debris you wanted to be removed would have required a moving truck, which in our contract we cannot provide. The lead man explained charges before starting the job. Great job done by guys, 1 star rating for charges is not fair to any of us.

The crew was nice BUT they showed up one person short then what I ordered they seemed to be overwhelmed by the work. They did not use any the mattress bags we had purchased and gave them... when we arrived at our new home we had damage clearly from how the truck was loaded... they broke a family an antique because it was not packed safely. We have damage to a brand new dryer, and damage to a power bed box spring. I am sad about this move. Note I did use this company earlier in the week and they did a great job, but not this crew. They reported there boss kept calling to them to rush to finish.... the biggest issue is the 26ā€™ truck became full and I asked if everything was down from the 2nd floor condo..... I was told yes.... I laid the crew and tipped them when I walked into the condo after the crew left there was aprox 12 pieces still in the condo. I had to rent a 6x12 Uhaul trailer and hire labor to bring the items down for the second floor. Iā€™m upset because those items should have been brought down to the garage for staging and I should have been told all that stuff was still inside the unit. I would not use this crew again. Hope to here from the owner

Mover's response:
I never rush my guys because that is bad things happen. I called to see how things were going and estimated time of completion. They had no more jobs to go on that day, they finished about 6:00 pm. They did have a job before this one and the 4th guy had a family emergency and had to leave. They payment was reduced to a three man crew so the customer did not pay anymore. I am sorry you were not happy with our service this is a rare occasion.

Super nice crew. They made sure everything was put away in the appropriate room. They did not want to leave until the beds, couch, lights etc were put together. Very professional and hard working.

Mover's response:
Thank you for keeping #1 in our area your review was great.

These guys did a phenomenal job, and I couldn't say enough about them. They were a late upon arrival, probably due to another job, but we managed through that. They were prepared, and professional. They worked the entire time, was respectful of our property, and I would highly use them again.

Mover's response:
Thank you for that great review. Yes the job before ran over reserved time but we never leave a job until completed.

The pair who arrived on 12/26, did a decent job, working quickly. They did a minor bit of damage to a wall. However, the two guys who came on 12/27 to load a second container were not as good. The younger one was also here on 12/26. The 12/27 middle aged man was not at my home for more than 5 minutes when he was asking for water. Less than 15 minutes later, he asked to use the restroom. Neither one could figure out how to get a dining room hutch out of the house. I was the one to tell them to put one of the packing blankets on the tile floor, rest the hutch on it and slide it from the dining room, down the hallway to the garage. I should not be the person having to tell them how to do their job. The younger man worked much harder than the middle aged one. When all was said and done, I had a lot of wall gouging and also gouges in the wood frames of doorways, not to mention stains on the walls. I cringe each time I think about what damage was done to my furniture, which I won't know until my new home is finished and the furniture is delivered. Not a good experience as a whole. I will say they were on time. Would I use them again.....no.

Mover's response:
Unfortunately we do not have as much space to leave a response as the customer does to leave a review. All my employees are skilled labor and full time employees. They all know how to move in every situation possible. The middle aged man which you speak off has moved baby grand pianos and safes up stairs. It is hard to image that he could not figure out on how to move a simple hutch out to the pod. They finished the job in the time you paid for. Sorry he had to use the bathroom.

The guys worked really well with my driver. My customer was also impressed in the service.

Mover's response:
We had a FULL 53 foot semi truck to unload with 2 flights of stairs and got it done within 5 hours. I was there and my crew worked great and there was a lot of heavy items and about 300 boxes. The review says guys but there actually was a woman that we have that is awesome and works very hard. So anyone reading this review and your hire us for your move don't be surprised if she is there. She outworks a lot of guys I know.
