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!

Mike and the crew getting ready to move our belongings into our new home.
Jay G.

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.

See all

Santiago's Team was first class…read more Good: - Showed up on time. - Great attitude from all the team members. - Handled with care. - Efficient with time. Bad: - None. Tip: - I would recommend using multiple people for a higher hourly rate. This was move 1 out of 2. Hope the 2nd round is just as smooth. Overall: I would recommend using this moving company.

Phenomenal moving experience! I had a local move , just 10 min up the street in houston/cypress ,…read moreand was trying to find the most efficient workers, who were also within budget and could help me pack up any boxes that I did not get to. What I loved was that their price was in the middle of all the ones that I called, but most importantly came with twice as many workers & they did not charge for packing up the boxes I did not get to! As of February 2026, H-town movers provided 4 movers for $155/hr , with a $120 one time fee that covered the truck & travel. That is all i was charged! (They have a minimum of 2 hrs, but anything after that, they only charge at 15 minute intervals). I provided the boxes, tape, and paper-- you can get their packaging packet, but I found all of my stuff cheaper & they used the kitchen towels, wash rags etc that i left out for them also! However, they do provide unlimited plastic wrap & moving blankets to wrap up all furniture. They were very careful packing up all my fragile items (large dresser mirrors, China plates, mugs etc). I was very relieved with their detail to that . They were extremely efficient (did not purposely "dilly dally" to rack up hours) and had a great attitude the entire time! I could hear them singing or telling jokes to each other, which helped relieve a little bit of my stress by creating such a pleasant atmosphere. They were also extremely kind with our toddler running around. I did not have to micromanage them at all. The only thing I did have to remind now and then was if a certain section was going in storage or to our new moving location. They did not charge for making 2 stops. At the first stop, they would ask where we wanted the box or furniture item, and they happily brought it to whichever location. They do not charge for stairs, which is nice. They were also extremely efficient in packing up the storage unit where we had a ton of space left over! i would highly recommend this company & their movers and I would definitely use them in the future! Having more hands on board at a very reasonable price helped get everything done in one day and in a shorter time span than I had anticipated!

I cannot reccomend this moving company enough. We just used ironback movers for a full service move…read morefrom Houston to San Fransisco. I interviewed about 6 moving companies and right away from talking with Abner I felt comfortable. Other moving companies were very persistent, trying to sell me, and seemed dishonest. Abner was very responsive and straight forward but did not contact me again after initial quote until I decided to go with him. He garunteed pick up date and arrival date (and time and was 10 minutes early each time!) which was huge for us as our move had to be very scheduled and other companies quoted us a 2 week interval (or more!) of when our items would be delivered. His crew in Houston arrived and packed our entire apartment, included disassembling basic items. They were extremely professional and efficient. Every item even valuable and breakable items arrived in perfect condition. He met us in San Fransisco 5 days later and him and two others unloaded all our boxes and assembled any dissassembled items. Again very professional and efficient. Iron back movers turned what could have been a very stressful move into 0 stress. Abner was extremely hardworking, professional, and easy to work with as was every member of his team. We hope we can use him for any future moves even though we are no longer in Houston!

4.5 stars. A friend who moved out of a 4 story town home…read morerecommended iron-back movers so we decided to use them since we were moving out of a 3 story town home. They were very responsive when we inquired (via text) and I liked that they charged per hour based on the number of movers you requested. We scheduled the moving date, signed a contract, and were ready to go! On moving day, the movers arrived promptly and they were so quick in moving everything! within two hours everything had been moved out of our townhome! It took them another hour and a half to move everything to the new place. Very impressed! They also wrapped certain pieces of furniture for us and disassembled as well as assembled others. Cost was reasonable as well. I would say they are more cost efficient compared to other movers we had inquired. Overall we had a good experience with iron/back movers and would use them again for our next move!

we got a quote right away and set the move up, thought there might be a better quote and it didn't…read morehappen. After canceling the initial move, we had no one for the move. 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. They were efficient, professional, had all needed equipment for the move and listened to directions on the placement of the pieces. I have moved over 17 times in my life and this was the best experience of all. The men are respectful and friendly.

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.

Before booking my move with Flores Moving, I decided to check out their reviews - and was stunned…read moreto discover that absolutely every single one of them had a 5-star rating. Honestly, I don't think any other company can boast something like that. The actual result exceeded even my expectations. The team - Mikey, Alfredo, and Carlos - proved themselves to be true professionals: very fast they packed many fragile items with exceptional care, loaded about 40 heavy boxes and several incredibly heavy pieces of furniture onto the truck (in the pouring rain!), and then delivered everything to my new apartment safe and sound. Moreover, all 3 of them were extremely friendly, and interacting with them was an absolute pleasure. I was so lucky to find this particular company handle my move stress-free. I highly recommend Flores Moving to anyone planning a move. A huge thank you, guys!
