  1. In fact, though I sent them the price for an expensive bottle of wine broken in the move they only reimbursed $90 of the $169 it cost.

SIMPLY THE BEST!!

by mrsblue at Citysearch

We have used Gentle Giant three times now and we just cannot say enough about them and the experience we have. Our latest move involved moving across country. There were cheaper movers out there but there are too many horror stories out there to take a chance on a company you do not know. We had peace of mind by going with Gentle Giant and it was worth every penny! They are truly the best in the business - they make the experience a stress free one. The crew is amazing - fast, careful, and very professional.

  • Pros: professional, careful with items, crew works fast
  • Cons: more expensive, but worth every dollar

Excellent!

by Balisarda at Citysearch

The two movers Gentle Giant sent us were excellent. They were careful with our furniture and walls, worked hard, and were polite and professional. Their service was all that one would expect—which, frankly, is getting rarer and rarer these days. Keep up the good work, Gentle Giant!

  • Pros: Careful, hard working, professional
  • Cons: Not inexpensive, but you get what you pay for

OUTSTANDING !!

by cpkspa at Citysearch

We came upon Gentle Giant after much research on moving companies and obtaining several quotes from several different moving companies. Decided to go with Gentle Giant as their record shows they do an outstandng job and the many satisfied customers. After hearing many horror stories from friends with their past moving experiences and customer complaints on the web regarding ripoffs and not satisfied with their move, we decided to go with Gentle Giant. They are not the least expensive, but were well worth it. The move was an interstate move. Gentle Giant was on time, courteous, treated every detail of the move with much respect. Rik, Aurimus and Tomas, all three exceptional gentlemen. Great personable guys! Can not say enough about these three gentlemen. They made the moving experience smooth as can be,

outstanding job.

Great great great

by ipomaea at Citysearch

We were very impressed by the service and overall quality of our cross-country move with Gentle Giant. It was the first time we've had packers and the first time we've been moved so far by a moving company. All the details were handled well and I trusted them throughout.

We had three moving companies do estimates for our large, complicated move. Gentle Giant was not cheapest, but I believed other personal and online reviews that they are the real deal and will not scam you. We did a fixed-price move and are very happy with it. Rik Hayes was our crew chief - he was professional and personable and had my trust during the whole process. I recommend them highly.
