tri city movers

I reviewed this company immediately after they packed the home I was moving out of, and the workers had been there since early in the morning. Although there had been a few snags (workers taking long breaks, smoking at the door of my apartment, arguing with each other about who was not working or who was moving too slowly) when I called the office, it seems the matters were handled well, so I was still okay with the initial results of the first part of the move. However, I had no idea how my evening would end. My move was from one city to another city 45 minutes away. The workers met me at my new place but seemed rushed and almost aggravated when I pulled up. I didn’t know if it was at each other or me, but I tried to ignore it. At the time, I did not realize their boss/the manager had joined the crew. He did not identify himself to me. I could hear that they were cursing at each other and rushing each other along, instructing each other how to unload my belongings, but I didn’t understand why. After all, this apartment was on the ground floor and the parking was just outside my door. In any case, I tried to ignore it because I was just thankful to be in my new place. Every box and bin was supposed to be labeled as they were packing since I had gone to great lengths to designate items and instructed the packers at the other location. The group ended up staying and unloading past midnight, resulting in items stacked up in my two-bedroom, two-bath apartment in a highly unorganized way. As I mentioned, I am disabled. Large wardrobe boxes (nearly as tall as I am) lined my hallway so that my walking device could not fit down the hall with me. All of my closets were stuffed with the same wardrobe boxes. My kitchen was full of heavy boxes that I could not move, blocking all appliances and leaving me unable to use my kitchen for months. Everywhere I turned, there were boxes and boxes stacked on top of each other. Most disconcerting was #1. Many boxes were not labeled and were incorrectly packed (items were just dumped from drawers or cabinets into boxes without care); #2 boxes were placed in the correct rooms (leaving me having to search for essential items). Many of my items were damaged due to the way they were packed or not packed. I am still finding broken items as I continue to sift my way to open boxes, little by little, almost one year later. Due to my condition, I could not move much of anything, but I had to enlist the help of a kind volunteer college student once, and then ultimately had to hire someone to help me slowly undue what was done. I WOULD NOT recommend this company. They overpromise and severely underdeliver. The customer service over the phone is delightful, but the actual service is atrocious. In addition, the manager, Kelvin, comes off as a problem solver, but they never showed up each time he said they “would fix it,” he refuses to give me the company’s insurance information so that I can file a claim for my damaged items. He even accused me of “ wanting an interior decorator” when I asked if the company could come and rearrange the boxes to the correct rooms and remove them from blocking my closets. This lacks integrity! This packing and moving service cost me about $2,000, but I paid way more because of the costs incurred to survive and how they left me in my new place. I have used several services such as this and have never had such an experience. I can’t believe they are still in business doing things this way. However, I found out they have several websites under different names directing people to the same company, and they do business in NC, SC, and VA very quietly (no registration in VA or SC, so perhaps misguiding people is their business model. I am unsure but will never give them another dime or referral. I retract EVERYTHING I said about them in my initial review. I am also attaching photos of what my new apartment looked like and how some boxes were packed when I opened them just after Tri-City Movers left me in my new place and I found someone to help me make a walking patch.

Jason and his guys at TrI-city are great movers! Excellent communication, very polite and trust-worthy employees. Their team recently moved two of our households, filling 3 large PODS. The pods were pack perfectly in order to optimize space. Their prices a very reasonable and a they are a very easy company to work with. We will definitely hire Jason and his crew again. We highly recommend them.

Just completed a move with Tri-City Movers. I have to say they are the best movers I have ever used. They were careful with our property, they were very personable and funny and most of all their price was the best of three movers I checked on. Cassandra was wonderful to work with. She was on the ball all the time and handled any changes I made without difficulty. I highly recommend this moving company for prompt and courteous service. They are fantastic!!!

I had a great experience with Tri-City movers. The guys were very professional and efficient. I moved from a 3-level townhome in a very hot temperature. They handled my things with care and did an excellent job! I would definitely hire them again!

Kelvin and his team went above and beyond to make our move from Greensboro to Charleston as seamless as possible. His crew was courteous, efficient and careful in handling all our furniture. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, local moving company.
