What Our Customers Say
Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I would highly recommend working with Stephen and his team at Scruffy City Movers and would use them again if needed. Their meticulous attention to detail and understanding of the "preparation" required to move heavy things efficiently was impressive. Our house is literally 115 years old with only a tiny winding staircase to access the upstairs bedrooms. Scruffy City Movers carefully and intentionally wrapped and boxed everything for us, which minimized the stress of the entire planning and moving process.Posted on daniel boutteTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I contacted multiple companies and took multiple estimates before making my decision to use Scruffy City. From the first time I spoke with Stephen, he was professional, prompt, and very communicative, while at the same time, not in any way, pushy like a few other companies were. The rates of service for our move were cheaper than most others quoted. Our move was particularly challenging, as it involved an overnight layover between when the truck was packed the day before we closed, and unpacked the next day after we closed on our new house. Trying to figure out how we were going to pack our home and have nowhere to unload it until after we took possession of our new home was very stressful to me, but Stephen reassured me that they could accommodate my needs. Further, he sent me a video showing how they pack furniture. I have been collecting multiple antique mid-century modern pieces which are relatively valuable, This reassured me that scruffy city was the way to go. On the loading day, Stephen and his crew, Chase, Jaiden, and Elija, arrived punctually. These young men worked hard wrapping and protecting my furniture. What really impressed me was that Stephen wasn’t just a guy in an office, but he was there leading his team, coaching them, checking their work along the way, and working as hard as they were to ensure the job was done well. While one of the movers did not see the value in an old shabby Adrian Pearsall couch in bad need of r exurbia hung, he cared for it as though it were priceless. In fact, the crew cared for my cheap KARM furniture as well as they did the high end items. The next day my closing ran a little late. When I got to my new house, I found Stephen and his team there. They had proactively been using their time and already had a lot of stuff unloaded. It was Halloween, but they all stayed until the job was done to my satisfaction. Score the move, my husband and I had rented a small storage unit to house some of our more fragile or expensive pieces of art or furniture because we had never used a moving service before and, frankly, we didn’t trust anyone else to do it. After seeing the care and professionalism demonstrated by Scruffy City, we could have saved purses the money and effort and had them handle it all. If you want your move done well and with care, this is your company! Thank you for a job well done.Posted on Beth LeamonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I highly recommend Scruffy City Movers! They moved my antique baby grand piano after I called them up in a panic because I needed it moved ASAP. They handled and cared for it extremely carefully...well padded and wrapped, and set it up perfectly at it's new home. Stephen, Jaiden, and Elijah were quick, careful and reliable. I received updates regularly and they were very punctual. I highly recommend them and would use them again!Posted on Shanna DiGiovanniTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Highly recommended. Your belongings and furniture will be handled with extreme care and professionalism. They arrived early, protected my furniture like pros, and carefully placed everything in my new home.Posted on Jorge PerezTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Stephen from Scruffy movers was not only professional but priced better than other movers. He was very friendly and showed up exactly when he said he would. Our furniture was moved and delivered undamaged. I will definitely be using him again and highly recommend him! 👍🙌💪Posted on Keri DawsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The staff at Scruffy City Movers were great to work with during my recent move. They were professional, efficient, and very gentle with all of my belongings. Many arguments between my husband and I were avoided through hiring this expert team!Posted on Andrea SpidellTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Scruffy City Movers was amazing during our recent move. Honestly, would not have been able to do it without them. Thank you all so much for your hard work. We can not wait to move the house to the lake and you know who we will use when that time comes..... yep, Scruffy City Movers.Posted on Elizabeth King
