Pick Up and Go Movers

How bad are these movers? Let me count the ways.

First, they let me schedule my move through their fancy online portal. Great start, right? Wrong. My move was set for 9:00 AM. Guess who didn't show up at 9:00 AM? These guys.

I texted them, and they said, "Someone should be calling you." Spoiler alert: no one called. An hour later, I text again: "Still no call." Crickets. At that point, I canceled because, honestly, if they can't handle a schedule, how are they supposed to handle my stuff?

These movers are the definition of unreliable. If you value your time, your sanity, or your belongings, I'd recommend running far, far away.

Terrible movers, terrible communication, terrible experience. 0/10 would not recommend.

I had an appointment scheduled for 11 AM. They never showed up. I called over and over and over. It was obvious they were ignoring my call. Someone finally answered at 7 PM after I called the after hours number from the email. They ended up rescheduling me for the following day. They played stupid as if they did not know what I was talking about when I mentioned them not showing up the day before. They acted as if they did nothing wrong. The first thing he mention was me tipping him after we were done. HE ASKED FOR TIP BEFORE THEY EVEN MOVED MY STUFF. They were smoking weed while they were moving my furniture. They damaged my couch. And after they move my furniture I did not give them a tip. So he got an attitude and made a very smart remark. He was obviously upset and had an attitude. The number one thing I was upset about is them not showing up the day before. I had my entire apartment packed up and ready to move and they never showed up and ignored my calls. It was extremely inconvenient. The day they came one of the movers called my phone by mistake. I thought he was talking to me at first. But he was talking to another customer. I heard him in the background talking to someone else telling them that he tried to called them and he tried to email them. It was very clear that based on what the mover was saying that they did the same thing to someone else. Not show up. So they must do this a lot. There are other companies that are cheaper. I posted a photo of my damaged couch. DO NOT USE THEM!!

They moved us fast, but don't use them for hi end items, unless you watch them all the time, because they will break your item then run. James tried to fix the dress he broken will screws and couldn't and told me he'll be back the next day but never returned. James said they have insurance up to $300 for troubles like this, but when we called the office and talk with Patrick he just hang-up in your faces, when trying to solve the problem. These people are bad news unless you don't care about you items.

First of all, I must say that the two gentleman who did our move worked very hard. They moved our furniture, some of which is very heavy, and did a good job with the exception of a couple of nicks in our sofa. Sadly, that is where the compliments end..On the day of our scheduled move, there was rain in the area and severe storms were in the weather forecast. I felt like it was legitimate for me to phone the company and inquire about their weather policy. I phoned and my call went to a voicemail. I decided to not leave a voicemail and instead phoned again ten minutes later.

A woman named Kenya answered the phone in an excessively rude manner. I told her my reason for calling and she snapped at me to read my email confirmation. She also accused me of calling excessively and that I had interrupted a "conference call." She proceeded to hang up on me. Dumbfounded, I really wanted to call back and ask her purpose for being so disrespectful. I chose instead to not subject myself to further ugliness. I would be fired if I treated a person in that manner in my line of work.The moving truck arrived approximately three hours after the assigned move time. We certainly understood that the weather could cause a slight delay, but three hours was unacceptable. Overall, the customer service and quality of this company is very poor. With no hesitation, I absolutely DO NOT recommend this company.

Needed to book a company for my move that was coming up. I saw a sign near Austell that had pretty reasonable rates. I called and inquired about the date and times available. I set up a time and date. On the day of the move, I had everything ready and was waiting for the movers to get there. Well my apt time was between 1-3 and they called around 4:45 to say they were running late and would at my location shortly. They arrived around 6:00 and both guys smelled like they had recently smoked some marijuana. This should have been the 1st sign to cancel the move and contact someone else. Next they start loading the truck and drop one of my antique lamps. They told me to contact company on Monday and file a claim for the broken lamp. So they continue to load and I noticed that one of the movers keeps following me. So eventually he is in the same room as me and starts asking inappropriate question. This has me feeling kind of uneasy and I call a male relative to come over until they finish the move. So the relative comes over and he walks in while the guy is making another pass at me. He tells the guys to hurry up and finish the move and to stop asking me anything. Well now they say that they need full payment before taking truckload to destination. Told him I would pay him with cc once move is complete. They refuse to complete move until I pay. They charge me for 4 hours and move only took 3 hours. They refuse to refund my money. So they arrive late, smelling like marijuana, break a antique lamp, make sexual advances, overcharge me and then refuse to give a refund. Please do not use this company. I contacted company and requested money for broken $300 lamp and they send me $30.

They showed up about 15 minutes late, which wasn't a big deal in itself, but oh well. More importantly, although they were very fast, some items were damaged - they wanted $300 for insurance which is crazy, when I was told over the phone that they were licensed and insured. Never did they say I had to pay extra! I have private insurance for transportation of goods so I used my company instead.

Next day started looking for items and found lamps, computer accessories, hard drives, keyboard/mouse, among other things nowhere to be found, as well as my microwave!! Did they really think I wasn't going to notice? Multiple phone calls were not returned, then I was told by the guy answering the phone, when he finally answered, to call the driver myself. I couldn't believe it!

Needless to say do not use this company, they will steal your stuff. I have filed a claim with my CC company. I even tipped them $20 each - 3 guys - man was that a mistake!!

THEY ARE THIEVES!! Stay FAR, FAR away!! I have to say I used these movers twice in the past and never had an issue, but this last time, absolutely awful. Their driver, Kevin, overcharged my move $70..with all the commotion going on, I didn't even realize it. I have been calling them for two months attempting to get my money back and they refuse.  A man who answers the phone and says he is ANTHONY always says he will send a check for the amount that was wrong, but still two months later, despite numerous emails, voicemails, and calls to him, I do not have my refund. I have made a report to the better business bureau and filed a small claims suit.  If you don't want to be cheated out of money, do not use this company! They are all shady!  Also, if you ask them for a supervisor, they simply hang up on you.
