⚠️ WARNING: Read This Before Hiring These Movers OR PAYING $150

ITS A HIT OR MISS

I was quoted $650 +tax = $734 ($243/hr for 3 hours + tax), keep in mind after 3 hrs its $123 for every additional hours.
My final bill skyrocketed to $1,225. This company uses aggressive fine print to inflate costs. Here is the breakdown of my experience and their "hidden" policies:

They "milked" the clock for at least 3 extra hours, costing me an additional $369 + tax in labor.

The Highlights:
• Slow Driving: A 24-minute drive took them 1.5 hours; a 45-minute drive took them nearly 2 hours. I arrived at the destination an hour before they did with zero traffic.

• Paid Breaks on Your Dime: You pay for a 15-minute break every two hours. They take more than allowed, and it adds up fast—just 4 breaks cost me $123 + tax in "non-working" time. They took more breaks than they should so keep that in mind when hiring them

• Hidden Fees: They tried to charge for stairs despite having an email from the office stating stairs were included. EXTRA 30MIN TO DISPUTE.

• Insurance Scams: They tried to force me to sign a waiver voiding my insurance because of a "barely noticeable" incline in the driveway. When I offered a flat parking alternative, they refused to walk the extra distance and STALLED FOR ANOTHER 30 minutes.

Save your money and the headache. My neighbor used Two Men & A Truck and had a much more professional experience without the shady waiver tactics.

Anyways long story short: Don't hire them if you want a smooth delivery.



⚠️ WARNING: READ BEFORE PAYING $150 DEPOSIT. YOU wont see this until you pay them 150

Hidden Fees & Deposits:
• $150 non-refundable deposit (not disclosed as non-refundable until after payment)

• $40–$100 "Heavy Item" fees for heavy items.

• Stair Surcharges: They tried to charge for stairs despite an email promising they wouldn’t. Keep every email!

Milking the Clock:
• Packing Scams: If you pay them to pack, they purposefully take their time to "milk" the hourly rate.

• Your Fault if You Pack: If you pack the boxes yourself and they break them, they claim zero responsibility. You lose either way.

The "Hostage" Payment Policy: You are forced to pay the full balance 1 hour before they finish unloading at your destination. If you refuse to pay the inflated price on the spot, they will take your belongings to their storage unit and charge you $350–$550 CAD in extra storage fees

• Zero Liability for Damage: Their contract states they are NOT covered for scuffs, scratches, nicks, or dirt.

• Mechanical Failures & Traffic: If their truck breaks down or they get stuck in traffic, the hourly clock NEVER stops. You are billed for their mechanical issues and road delays.

• Parking Ticket Liability: If the movers get a ticket while parked at your home, YOU are responsible for the fine. 

BOTTOM LINE: They lure you in with a base rate and then "nickel and dime" you until the bill doubles. Avoid them at all costs.
