Solomon and Sons Relocation Service

Moving has always been one of my least favorite things, but Solomon & Sons completely changed that perspective for me. From the moment I booked with them, their staff was organized and responsive. On moving day, the crew showed up on time, in uniform, and ready to work. They carefully packed my fragile items, disassembled my furniture, and loaded everything efficiently. What impressed me most was how respectful and professional they were throughout the entire process. They even checked in with me regularly to make sure I was comfortable with how things were being handled. Everything arrived at my new home in perfect condition, and they reassembled everything just as it was before. I honestly can’t imagine going with another moving company after this experience. They delivered peace of mind, and that’s priceless.

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY.

Moved this past weekend and they broke half of my stuff including a television, desk, snapped my entire bed frame in half, stuffed lamps into cardboard boxes among other things.

Their response? Not only would they not trash the things they broke, they left all the boxes and trash for me and my elderly parents to have to haul to the dump stating "it's illegal for them to remove the debris from my home". My dad nearly threw out his back having to help me carry all the heavy items.

When I called to speak with a manager? He stated it wasn't in their standard business practice to get rid of the damaged items and they didn't have to offer any recourse.

Don't make the same mistake I did.

What a phenomenal experience! Professional and polite from beginning to end. Sadly, I did have a piece that was a casualty but the fact that they owned it, guided me and apologized for everything over and over was reassuring. Called the office again met with courtesy, politeness and professionalism makes all the difference. Was guided again from beginning to end on how to make sure everything was a smooth transition moving from Miami to Dallas made all the difference.

They all work hard and I live on a 3rd floor with no elevator, seeing them moving everything piece by piece with a smile is worthy of recognition and praise

We used Solomon and Sons to move from Fort Lauderdale to Chicago, and after reading their reviews I mistakenly thought I was in good hands. The final amount they charged us was much higher than the originally quoted amount. They then charged us for more square footage than we actually used in their truck, which we have photos to prove of their dishonesty. Then when our boxes and furniture arrived, the movers that Solomon and Sons hired to unload the truck were extremely rough and unprofessional with our items, causing substantial damage to our items and scratching our new floors. The movers they hired to the final destination, fought viciously in my front yard, causing my neighbors to come out and watch. They also threw a hidden "long driveway fee" at us when they arrived despite being able to see photos of our house beforehand. They knew that once our stuff was loaded on their truck, we would be stuck paying any fee they threw at us! This was a horrendous moving experience, and I would not recommend using Solomon and Sons for anyone. Not only was it way more money than they quoted, but the quality of the service they provided was, in my opinion, extremely poor. If you look on the "Better Business Bureau" website, you can see a bunch of other people that Solomon and Sons massively uncharged above the quoted amount, and I wish I had known that they would take advantage of us in this way before using them! I would leave a 0 star review if I could. In my opinion, they should not be in business and you should not hire this company. I am astounded they are still in business.

I have scarcely met more incompetent people in my entire life. Subsequent to signing the contract, all semblance of professionalism vanished. Evert aspect of this move was complicated culminating in a significant number of articles (of my relatively small apartment move) being received with varying degrees of damage, in some cases so severely it’s difficult to speculate how the damage was even caused. ABSOLUTELY AVOID! I cannot emphasis enough how horrendous this experience was. The only reason to choose this company for your move is if you’re an idiot or a masochist.

Extreme dissatisfaction with the services provided by Solomon and son company. My experience was overwhelmingly negative, and I would strongly advise anyone considering using this service to look elsewhere.

From the outset, I found pricing structure to be deceptive. While the initial quote appeared reasonable, the final cost escalated significantly due to numerous fees. The total expense was far greater than I was initially led to believe.

Furthermore, the level of customer service deteriorated dramatically once I had committed and paid for the move. I specifically confirmed with salesperson Jason that my move would be completed by a certain date, having contacted your company almost a month in advance to ensure timely service. Despite these assurances, my belongings were delivered 25 days after the promised date and 11 days beyond your own lenient 14-day window outlined in the contract. In total, my move took an unacceptable 35 days.

Additionally, the practice of combining multiple customers' belongings into a single truck appears to be a recipe for damage. As anticipated, I did experience damage to an item. An item worth $200+ was broken during the move, for which your company only offered a paltry $30 in compensation. STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY.

If I could give zero stars, I would. Solomon & Sons Relocation is the most unprofessional and untrustworthy company I've ever dealt with. They are outright thieves, and I urge anyone considering them to look elsewhere immediately.

First, don’t trust the 5-star reviews—they’re likely fake, posted by people doing the company a "favor." Here’s my nightmare experience:

The Pick-Up: The movers arrived and, in the middle of the humid Miami summer, turned off the AC, opened all the windows, and let bugs swarm into my house. They then claimed I had more boxes than quoted, adding bogus overage fees for a “transport truck” they promised would be refundable (it wasn’t).

The Move-Out Process: The move-out seemed efficient, but it was just a facade. The movers practically demanded a tip, asking, "How did I do?" I told them I'd decide when my furniture arrived. Good thing I held off—they destroyed my belongings.

The Arrival: Delivery was a disaster. Though initially on time, they rescheduled, and then arrived two days late. When they did show up, they were four hours late and demanded payment upfront via Zelle or cash—a huge red flag! They do this so you can’t dispute the charge once you see the damage.

The Damage:

Both OLED TVs: Smashed.

TV stand: Destroyed with a crater-sized chunk missing.

Furniture: Scratched and damaged.

Missing items: Almost left boxes of clothing on the truck until I convinced them they were missing.

They refused to take items up the stairs and made me unwrap everything myself because they were “busy” and “tired.” Then they refused to clean up their own mess, leaving me with all their discarded packing materials.

The Scams: The drivers openly complained about the company screwing them over and admitted to charging for unnecessary “add-ons” like the transport truck, knowing people forget to request refunds. But guess what? They don’t give refunds anyway! Despite photo evidence of the full-size truck in front of my house, they still denied my claim.

Because I didn’t buy their overpriced insurance, they treated my belongings like trash. Their compensation? A laughable $0.10 per pound, which doesn’t begin to cover the $5,000+ worth of damage they caused. They count on people not pursuing such a small claim, but I am. I’m opening a lawsuit and spreading the word through my well-connected real estate network in Florida.

Final Thoughts: Solomon & Sons Relocation is full of scammers and thieves with zero responsibility. They’ll squeeze every last cent out of you, beg for tips, and leave you with damaged or lost belongings. Do yourself a favor and run far, far away from these crooks. Your wallet and your sanity will thank you.
