Reviews
What customers say
Customers praise the crew's friendly manner, and one said they got a treadmill through a tight doorway with ease. One customer reported that an antique marble table and a French cabinet were broken during the move, said the offered recovery for the table was far below its value, and said a more expensive insurance option had not been made available beforehand.

These guys know how to move!
Dre and Josh were a couple of great guys. Very polite and willing to ask where to place certain objects. Towards the end we booked an additional hour, paid Dre the exact dollar amount, followed by a black and white, emailed receipt.

The Duo that showed up to unload my 26 ft Penske were outstanding! They were on time and ready to work! We hit a bump when we had to put a treadmill through a tight doorway, however, they managed it with ease! They truly went above and beyond and would highly recommend them for all your moving needs. Thanks for the smooth unload!

Writing on behalf of my grandmother, who had a series of alarming exchanges with these people April 28th, 2023. Prior to the move, my grandmother explicitly asks if they had insurance because they have a number of irreplaceable expensive items. Shield moving said they had insurance. Of course, a very expensive antique marble table was broken in the move, as well as, an expensive French cabinet. The mover says "I am the insurance", unsure what that means. The insurance they had was only providing $0.60/lb we found out later. This table was over $2000 (before being destroyed) and she was offered $87 to recover the table. After this incident, shield moving says there was an option for more expensive insurance that was completely not made available to my grandmother beforehand.
I do not recommend the reader to use this moving company.
