    If I could give this company 0 stars I would. We used Five Star Movers to move from Cape Cod to Salt Lake City. After paying an arm and a leg, our furniture took 3.5 weeks to get there (which was within the limits of their contract, but still crazy). For 3.5 weeks, we had no communication of where our belongings were. Then, on Mother's Day, I got a call in the morning that the movers were an hour away (with no advance notice). I had to leave a Mother's Day brunch to go complete my move because the movers had to be in California the next day. The movers also left to smoke marijuana in the middle of the move...very professional! Then, once I actually received my belongings, there was THOUSANDS of dollars worth of damage. My couch and 2 TVs appeared to have sat in water and were completed ruined (probably worth about $3,500 total), my peloton was broken ($2,800 alone), multiple desks / nightstands / dressers were banged up, and so on. I filed an insurance claim (which I will admit I did not purchase additional insurance because I'd believed I was using reputable movers who were responsible and reliable) and received an offer to settle for less than $300. I've called Five Star Movers multiple times and have been promised a call back from the manager, which I've never received. I've asked to be transferred to the manager and he's always conveniently in a "meeting". This company is fraudulent, dishonest and negligent. DO NOT USE THEM FOR ANY MOVE. My husband and I are both attorneys and will be filing a claim with the BBB, the American Moving & Storage Association and seeking legal recourse in hopes that other people do not have to go through pain and suffering (and financial loss) that we have gone through.

    I hired five star movers for a long distance move. The booking process was good and very professional. Beyond that my experience was terrible. All of my items were neatly packed in plastic crates. It was evident that many of them were rummaged through or spilled as there was dirt on my clothes and some things were missing.Many of the plastic crates were damaged badly. When I pointed this out to the mover he said we have insurance you can file a claim. I was very disappointed by how little care was taken of my belongings.

Stephan, Ivan and Den took so much of the stress out of the process. They showed up exactly on time and set to work immediately on arrival. They worked so quickly that we had to keep up just to give them directions when they needed it. They were a marvel to watch work and they completed the move in record time. I would not hesitate to use them again for the next move another 15 years down the line. Thank you!

The movers made contact when they were en route to my location, and showed up on time. All three of the movers introduced themselves, and post my tour of what they needed to move, they went to work. Our move was sizeable 3bd apt in a house to a 2bd smaller townhouse. They disassembled, reassembled, and arranged furniture in the most effective configuration. They were real people who truly cared about the job they did. They also understood how stressful moving is. My move took 6 hours and they were moving the entire time. Nothing broken and they were a super effective team. (hopefully no time soon...the process of moving bites) If I ever need movers again Mozart Movers are going to be my choice. Thanks Dan ,Evan , and Tony, and Elisa

    I did not know what to think when my older sister called with the number for Organizing Boston and…read moretold me, "You need to get a hold of this group." I am so glad I listened to her. As a senior citizen, I find those tasks which would have been easier for me when I was younger more challenging. After 44 years of accumulating a variety of clothing in Boston, I needed to downsize. The idea of sorting and organizing 18 full bags of clothing by myself was daunting. Lead organizer Gloria met me and helped me go through those bags in record time (2 hours). I wouldn't have believed it possible. She was professional and compassionate. I ended up keeping two bags of clothing and she took away the rest in her car and arranged for them to be properly donated. Organizing Boston also sent me a receipt for the bags of items that I had donated. Professional efficiency combined with compassion was my experience in working with every aspect of Organizing Boston. What I thought would be a nightmare Gloria told me was fun for her. She definitely made it easy for me. I would highly recommend this group.
