    DO NOT FALL FOR THE FAKE GOOD REVIEWS LIKE I DID. I will…read morenever recommend or use these people. They broke my tv and do not want to take accountability for it. Were 5 hours late. From 12pm waiting and they showed up at 5 pm. Took 5 hours to move a simple job one bedroom set and an office w 20 ready to go boxes two tvs a round table and armor . They over charged me and broke my tv. One guy looked totally high wobbling all over the other was throwing up. Asking me for water and food almost dying of dehydration and were sloppy when their boss said they were late for taking lunch. This people seemed like they got picked up from the corner and had no idea what they were doing. DO NOT HIRE THEM u will pay the price like I did. The people they sent other than the girl were not fit to do the job and I lost a tv because of it and paid two times more the quoted time because of their unprofessionalism and they even lost the key to the truck. I got the run around every time I called and lost over one thousand dollars because of them. I don't wish that for anyone. DO NOT HIRE THIS COMPANY this move was a horrific experience. I had to help because they weren't doing it. One tv broken and 5 hours later for 3 people plus me is unacceptable. I will not be threatened or forced to take this review down like they do to others and tried to do to me. BEWARE DO NOT HIRE THEM

    Everything went smoothly for my move and there was no damage to my furniture. They were…read moreprofessional and caring. And the price was very reasonable for the service provided. I would definitely hire them again and I would recommend them to a friend.

    First of all, I am not someone to ever leave a review even if someone were to spit in food…read more The manager (assumed) was very unhelpful along with all employees active that day. If there was a way to give 0 stars I would. We had to cancel our pickup time due to weather and we got snap responses on how they waited "all day" for us to show up. The pickup time was one hour in the morning. When I dropped off the furniture a gentlemen named Jeremy helped out and was kind and helpful. We came the next day in the pooring rain just to get welcomed by nobody to pick up our furniture. And when ask questions they just responded with "I do this all the time - I know what I'm doing" "This is what I do for a living" and then they walked away and offered NO HELP while it's raining. We walked away soaking wet and in distress as they were laughing and pointing. So, we retaliated words until we were waterlogged enough to go our separate ways. Now I used to work in the service/manual labor industry. I have seen workers this these (other than Jeremy) they don't last any time in the industry. The complain regarding there wages but are too supine to get up and great a customer with a smile (weather fake or real) and kiss ass for a buck. They lack this quality (other than Jeremy) The manager stood and laughed as well as there 3 workers were fulminating words at us. To not be shy, we exchanged words back with them. It was a torrential downpour and everyone was animated (us respectfully had reasons - since we expected service) I wish I had gathered there names. The manager (again, assumed) was there too just watching and laughing at us putting our furniture in the rain. Poor ethic business / Don't ever go here - if they have this attitude in front of their customers - could you imagine what they are doing when storing your precious, valuable furniture. I could only assume they are not taking care of it with scratches and throwing stuff around. Prices are affordable, but I guess you get what you pay for with horrible service. If you have made it this far into the review. I hope this describes what type of experience you could expect when showing up to Atmosphere Movers

    Hiring Geaux Movers was an absolute nightmare so here's your warning. Not only did they not do…read moreanything I hired them for, THEY LITERALLY ROBBED ME. I should add that they may also go by "Fast Affordable College movers" (which is a joke in itself) because this is who billed me. This was my experience: I had already moved a majority of my furniture and boxes but I decided I wanted to cut myself some slack and hire movers and not have to bug any more friends for help. I called Geaux Movers a few times before I hired them to get an estimate and schedule a day I could hire them. During each phone call, I mentioned I really only need help moving a heavy dresser and some loveseats from upstairs. The loveseats didn't even need to go in the truck; just moved downstairs. The woman on the phone always responded with "oh no problem, two guys can take care of that." I insisted the dresser was large and heavy but every time we spoke: "nah two guys can handle it." So two scrawny kids show up the day of, look at the dresser, and immediately say they can't do it and that I'll have to hire two more people who aren't available for hours and they would cost hundreds of more dollars. They insist they couldn't bring sofas downstairs either which was funny becuase I grabbed my roommate as he was leaving the house and we got it downstairs right in front of them without a problem. Red flags are popping up. Since I'm waiting to hear back from the office about the additional movers to come, they start packing up boxes and other misc. things. Soon enough, the truck is filled with things I didn't need a moving company for. We go to my new house to unload everything and one of the movers is constantly on his phone and I'm running laps around him unloading the truck and he keeps randomly mentioning how he "has to go soon" despite me hiring them and paying them based on however many hours it takes. I come inside the house a couple times to find him kind of wandering. Fast-forward. The truck is now empty, I didn't hear anything back from the office about getting the extra men, and the two "professional movers" didn't touch the things I actually needed their help with. Just after a couple hours of having these two move boxes that I could've moved myself, I'm now out ~$600 and I'm left the with same problems I had before they arrived. I pay them and walk inside to find my credit card placed in a weird spot I've never left it. Knowing I had a card found and moved around my house, I called the Geaux Movers office and said "Look, it's probably nothing but I want it known that some funny business could've happened with my card. There's no need to punish anyone or say anything but I'll be keeping an eye on this account and let you know if anything happens." Well sure enough, charges pop up on that account the following weekend. I call the office to tell them that unfortunately I was correct in thinking someone was taking my card info. The guy I'm talking to says its above his paygrade so he'll have his boss call me back. Days go by with no call. I call them back; same story. "The boss will give you call." Days go by; nothing. I end up calling these clowns every few days for weeks. Weeks turn into months and I finally get a hold of the boss. He goes by Woody. I'm telling Woody what happened and he immediately turns extra defensive and hostile and claims there's no relation to what happened with my card and the random charges a few days later. He then changes his MO to "I don't care about the charges, the charges mean nothing to me, I don't want to hear about them. I'll talk to my guys about this and get back to you in regard to you not being satisfied with what they did." I then explain to him that because one of them is now using my card, I have to cancel it and I'm without a card for at least a week. He goes on to say it's my fault I was robbed because I had a card loose in my house while strangers are there. He says he can't vouch for the men they send out and I'm a fool for having it somewhere they could grab it. MY FAULT, HE SAYS. I'm in the middle of moving... all of my possessions are everywhere... This is the last I heard from Woody despite calling them every week for months looking for some sort of a refund because their prices aren't as advertised, they didn't actually move any furniture I needed moved (which I ended up doing successfully with another friend so I know it could've been done just fine), and one of them legitimately robbed me. Oh, I even went to their business address on Banks St hoping to talk to someone and it's just some residential house who has nothing to do with the company. Turns out they're located it Mandeville and not the address they have listed. Don't hire these people. The owner is heinous, they aren't capable, and apparently, they're criminal. I ended up renting a van and having one friend come over to do all the things they claimed were impossible. Maybe Woody will finally call back after posting this.

    # CONSIGNORS BEWARE…read more Okay, so I need to share my experience with Occasional Wife because this is honestly wild... The TL;DR? Their sticker system is a DISASTER and it's costing consignors money. Here's what's happening: They use these flimsy price tags/ID stickers that literally just... fall off? And when that sticker falls off, POOF -- your item becomes a ghost. No tracking number = no payment for you. The store just keeps 100% of the sale. I've personally seen MULTIPLE items sitting there with zero identification. No price, no consignor number, nothing. When you ask about it? "Oh, the sticker must've fallen off ‍" Like... THAT'S the system?? This isn't a one-time oopsie -- this is a pattern. And it's honestly unacceptable when real people are trusting this business with their valuable items. **Kay (the owner) -- if you're reading this:** Your entire business model depends on consignors trusting you with their stuff. But how can we trust a system where our items can literally become untraceable because of a bad sticker? Your consignors are literally filling your store with inventory. We deserve better tracking than "sorry, sticker fell off, guess it's ours now! " **Bottom line for anyone thinking of consigning here:** There's a very real chance your item will lose its ID and you'll never see a dime. You might as well be donating your stuff for free. Please, PLEASE invest in better stickers or a better tracking system. This shouldn't be that hard to fix. #OccasionalWife #SmallBusinessAccountability

They should be clear boxes that are lighter and easier to manipulate. I paid more than enough for this service. I did not post the photo of the hot mess of a workshop that I have to organize when I am well enough that they did not do a good job of. It's not even neat and clear.
