The movers were significantly later than orginally hired for although they did call and notify that they woud be later. However, even then, they were delayed beyond their estimation. (Much of thrme unpacking had been done by the time they finally arrived!)
They did not want to take direction. One piece of furniture was bulky and oddly shaped and they didnt want to consider an alternate orientation to move it into the correct room. The way they disregarded suggestion was abrupt and unprofessional. The two movers were not the best representatives for this service in my opinion. Suggesting that I would be unable to use the app to pay them was a little inappropriate, as I am an older female...Seriously? I would suggest using another service .

Mover's response:
We 're very sorry for the inconvenience but our ratings speak for themselves,if I remember correctly we were going to cancel the job we had two job orders this day of your move and you said it was okay to come after the first job so we wouldn't have to cancel we are al2ays on time other than double stacked job orders we deeply apologize once again sorry we couldn't been on time and more professional;pet say we are very professional as always .Plz forgive us for being late and the big piece of furniture your speaking of was well over 500 pounds we chose to move it for you for free instead of charging you the $400 dollar Large item fee we waived that fee in order to make up for our tardiness and you was very pleased and happy that I remember,the 2 * review and negative comment towards us being unprofessional is very disappointing. Plz forgive us we will get right on correcting our eras.i apologize, we have been on the website and a small professional family owned business for such a long time that I can't remember the last time we received such a poor rating. Ty for bringing it to our attention for lack of communication because that is the main key in being successful .once again ty we will work hard and keep doing our best we just hope we can get over the hump and strive hard to replace the 2 Star* review god bless and good luck In your new home sincerely Harold K Tackett Universal Movers

They worked hard and were very professional. Larry, the owner/leader was excellent and a pleasure to work with. We had a few items that were very heavy and hard to move to the room we wanted them to go to due to their dimensions, but Larry was willing to try several times until he got the job done.

The only reason for 4 stars rather than 5 was that they arrived over 2 hours late. To be fair, when I called Larry before 9.00 am (we had booked them to arrive between 9:00am and 10:00am) he told me that he was having a hard time finding his co-worker and he would be late, and he then called later with an update, but ultimately they arrived at 12:30pm. They worked the number of hours I booked with only 1 break which took them well into the evening, and their work was of a high quality. They compared very favorably with Leaders who I had used only 6 months before.

I'd use them again without hesitation.

These guys were awesome. They arrived on time and got to work immediately. They were fast and efficient unloading my UHaul in less time than I projected. All of the men were friendly and easy to work with. They went above their duties by helping me sort out some of my items. I would recommend Universal Movers to anyone needing assistance and I hope others also tip them well. This is hard work and these guys never complained.

Mover's response:
Ty and his bless it's amazing to have worked with you and thank you so much for the awesome 5 estar review

Universal Movers did a great job! We used them to load up a 16 ft storage/shipping container. Harold and Larry were courteous and friendly. They explained how they would load the container to maximize space. They were careful with all our belongings. The were really fast and actually finished sooner than I expected. I would definitely use them again and plan to hire them for next weekend!

As long as the wasn't any damage during the loading process (I won't know until the unload), we are satisfied with the service.
