Two Men and a Truck Moving and Storage

On 2/20 Zak and Zak did a phenomenal job assisting in moving my mother. Both were very professional, polite and accommodating to my mother's worry about her possessions being moved. It was a brutally cold and icy day, and they made it happen. Very thankful for their hard work. Highly recommend using this team and their company for your next move.

I contracted Two Men and a Truck to help move some of my larger pieces of furniture as I get my home ready for sale. I filled out the form online and got a call back from Gabe to discuss my move the next day. He was professional and explained the entire process while creating a quote and setting up my move all in the same call. The day of the move, the team called to let me know they were on the way. Mike, Austin, and Eli arrived when they said they would, went through what they were moving, and then got set up. They were efficient and careful with my furniture and totes, which was much appreciated given that some of the pieces are older than me and very dear. They did an excellent job of manouvering everything so that it did not scuff the walls. The entire move, including organizing all the furniture into my storage unit took two hours! I'm very happy and will likely be asking for the same team, if possible, when it comes time to move out of the storage unit.

Update 12/5 : we used a different provider today to move again, it was 1/3 the cost and two men completed the move in less time that the 4 man crew. The owner responded to my original review and said he was glad “B was working to resolve my issue. The small refund and the no call back further proves this place doesn’t care. I stand by the original review below. Worst move ever. Simply terrible! Crew showed up and within 30 minutes we knew it was going to be a bad day. They didn’t have any idea what they were doing and there was no direction for the 4 man crew. They often walked aimlessly from room to room. We color Coded boxes so they would have ease unloading and explained this to them but they lacked the capacity to understand the assignment. So many missed opportunities. The move took several hours longer than it should have. At one point all four guys took turns trying to turn the truck around until I finally had to shout point by point directions to help them turn the truck. Also had to I struck them how to bring a couch through a doorway. Just such a terrible experience. They kept having me sign updated estimates during the move. Worse run franchise ever. Brandon the manager was not much better. And was rather insulting in his email response

Alright, let’s get into this… I’ve worked in construction most of my life. I’ve been around dudes who claim they “used to bench 405,” guys who grunt picking up a paint bucket, and guys who talk about “the good old days” like they were Navy SEALs instead of drywallers. But nothing, nothing prepared me for whatever mutant super-soldiers Two Men and a Truck dropped off at my house. My back hurts just writing this. Not from moving just from the psychological damage of watching these guys work while realizing I’ve wasted my entire life pretending I’m strong. They showed up like they’d been carved out of granite by the gods themselves. On time. Calm. Polite. And then they immediately started violating the known laws of physics. Furniture that took me and three full-grown “men” to shuffle into the house was casually carried out by one guy who didn’t even bother to breathe heavy. Door frames? Untouched. Walls? Pristine. It was like watching a Marvel crossover episode starring people who actually passed the audition. If I ever get trapped under a semi on the highway, forget the fire department, I want these guys to materialize out of thin air and yoink it off me like they’re picking up a sock. Thank God my girlfriend wasn’t there for the unload. She absolutely would’ve left me for one of them and I wouldn’t have blamed her for a single second. To protect the relationship and the last 2% of my dignity, I asked her to go get coffee during the unload so she didn’t see me being effortlessly outclassed by a couple of human forklifts. I wasn’t just insecure; I was in a full-blown identity crisis. What should’ve been a long, miserable, stress-filled moving day turned into a single phone call to Jillian DeMarco, who set everything up and made the entire process so easy I felt like I should’ve been arrested for how little work I did. Worth every penny. Worth more, honestly. Thank you.

We hired Two Men and a Truck for our move from Farmington to Richmond MN. Let's start with some positives. They were courteous, punctual, and worked hard. They also had to drag some heavy furniture around for us and were gracious about putting the treadmill in the garage after finding out it didn't fit in the room in the basement. Some things that were a struggle for the team was packing. They were supposed to come and pack up the house before the move. They only packed about 80%. When I asked about closets and other items I was told that it would be handled on moving day. What they did as you can see from the pictures below is just throw many of our items into a big box. They crushed my wreaths, took stuff out of our sofas (they have storage) and instead of packing them up neatly just piled them. Things also were placed in random areas and I am missing part of my kitchen items. I am hoping they are just buried in the garage in the heap that was left. They also placed heavy items on glass causing breakage, shoved my son's taxidermy deer in a pile causing damage, and one of our ottomans had rubber bands on it that caused the bottom to buckle. They also left us with furniture assembly. Which we did, but I was under the impression that was part of the move. Overall, it was a mixed bag. They were a nice group of guys and like I said, did great moving the treadmill and a large blue couch. But with the haphazard packing style and missing/damaged items and the price I am not sure that we will utilize them for our next move.
