    Truck barely unpacked at nearly 6pm.
    Deborah O.

    For your own good DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY! If you must, use their packers only, I had no issues whatsoever with the women who came to pack up my place. DO NOT USE THEIR MOVERS AT ALL! They're rude, they would not listen to my directives on where to put the labelled boxes and would not place the boxes in the rooms that they should go. I told them they were putting things in the wrong place and they decided to stop taking things into the house altogether, and started dumping them in the yard and in my garage. I said the contract with them wasn't to dump my stuff in the yard so I wasn't going to pay, they threatened to call the cops on me. A house that took 3 women 8.5 hours to completely and meticulously pack, is having a move time being run up to nearly 12hours to pack and unpack and they haven't even unpacked half the truck. They arrived at 8:15am, see attached pic of their truck at 5:45pm. When they arrived they looked at everything and said they would be done with everything - loading, moving at unloading at 2pm, but I guess they figured I'm alone so I can be bullied and extorted. They counted on their office being closed and my not being able to report them to anyone and decided to flex their muscles on me. Little did they know that I had the number of their supervisor, Juan, who stopped by with the packers yesterday. As soon as he got on the phone with them, they started moving things back into the house. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY! You'll be spending $159/hour + $80 flat fee to get insulted, bullied, threatened and exploited! Movers Houston does a much better job, keep to time and have courteous staff. I've used them for 2 previous moves, but they were just fully booked this month, so I made this mistake with Optimus. NEVER AGAIN!

    Super easy and efficient to get appointment set up with Trae. On moving day, Mike and the crew were super efficient, courteous, and managed a 4 bedroom, 2 story house move in an amazingly short time. Lots of heavy furniture and they worked through like the pros they are. Moving can be stressful but this crew made it a smooth transition. Couldn't have asked for a better experience. Highly recommended.

    Friendly movers and quick! They went right to work after arriving and took care of my delicate items. Even moved my indoor plants with ease!

    The move took a long time and was one I had to pay extra for. They broke my 55" LCD TV. They gave me $150 for it. It was a $400 TV.

They handled all of my belongings with great care, communicated with me throughout the entire process, and made what could have been a stressful moving day feel easy and organized. Kevin and his team worked hard and were flexible. When my leasing office wasn't open and the freight elevator wasn't accessible, they were able to pivot and adapt quickly. The team had a positive attitude and greeted me with a handshake and a friendly smile first thing this morning. They all went above and beyond to make sure everything was placed exactly where I wanted it. Nothing was damaged, and they treated all of my home, furniture, and belongings with respect. Not to mention, I asked if they would drop of my mattress at my new place down the street from my storage unit (an added extra stop) and they said they would! After the final stop, they closed me out and everything was done in 2 HOURS!! I was shocked. This crew of three guys done in 2 hours packing up my 600 sqft apartment was a great value and money well spent compared to the other quotes I received. If you're looking for a reliable, hardworking moving company, I HIGHLY recommend H-Town Movers. I'll definitely use them again for my next move!

We called twice and got two different rates…read morewithin the same day. 100/hr cash 120/hr card first rate we received, these rates hiked up to 135 cash 175 card. We did a video call so they can give an estimate, we never received an estimate. The movers came to pack move and unpack. They didn't know they were supposed to be packing/unpacking. I had to call and confirm instead of them. They left my front door wide open and never turned the gate back on so if I hadn't gone back for cleaning supplies my door would've been left open over night. When I told the only guy who spoke English he said "I wasn't the last one out" no apologies just a lazy answer. They never unpacked properly. I started unpacking the kitchen, so they had an idea of where things went. They didn't try, they just unpacked random stuff and threw it in places. Appliances were disassembled which could have easily been put together. My cake stand was in two thrown on the counter top with a box over the glass in an unsafe manner. They said they were scheduled to come back tomorrow and when I called to complain about how the place left they said the job was done and I should've said something before they left. I told them they should leave instead of waiting for me to return after picking up my daughter they told me had to pay. Which understood I'll pay for the day, but the packing job was not done. These are scammers. It's been a long time since I dealt with a business like this but this one beware.

I called at 2:00PM and they were here at 3:00 PM for the move. The man was so accommodating and very careful with all of the furniture, they wrapped everything and took it off after relocating it.

    To anyone considering Square Cow Movers: do yourself a favor and look elsewhere…read more I did my homework. I spoke with multiple moving companies. In the end, it was Square Cow's overly confident answering service that convinced me to go with them. Big mistake. I hired them to move a large bedroom set from a second-floor bedroom to the garage--something I clearly communicated was not a simple task. I had over four phone calls, sent multiple photos, and explicitly discussed the risks and challenges involved. Each time, I was told everything was "in the notes" and the movers would be properly equipped with straps and the right tools. I even spoke directly with the operations manager the day before the move. He reassured me--again--that his crew would be fully prepared. He even advised me not to purchase additional insurance, claiming it was an easy job and not worth the extra cost. Then moving day arrived. The crew showed up completely unprepared. No straps. No proper equipment. Within minutes, they dropped the first piece of furniture, severely damaging it. The rest of the move was borderline reckless. The crew themselves admitted that Square Cow doesn't provide them with tools or care about their safety--or the customers' belongings. According to them, "Square Cow only cares about making money." After my experience, I believe it. I filed a damage claim, and now I'm stuck in their slow, unresponsive process that may take up to 90 days to maybe--maybe--get a fraction of what the damage is worth. Bottom line: they talk a good game on the phone, but they have zero follow-through. The left hand has no clue what the right is doing, and they clearly don't equip their crews to do the job safely or professionally. Their so-called claims department is a joke. Don't fall for the sales pitch. There are better, more honest companies out there. Square Cow Movers is not one of them.
