    The franchise owner, Jeremy, did a walk through with 2 helpers then left. During the preparing of the furniture, Riley stopped and increased the original quote. This continued to happen and was not justified. Extra because more things than they thought, I was still packing when they arrived, truck not big enough (after all items were identified with the pre estimate, plus deposit!). I finally realized they were taking advantage of a 74 yo woman alone.

    So, Jeremy said he would just charge for 6 hrs (the move is by hours not furnishings), went to new location, they unloaded in the driveway and left. I called and Jeremy said they did not like my directions (protect the newly done hardwood, etc.). They did not do one thing as advertised - just wanted money and no service! I have contacted the corporate office and Jeremy’s boss. This is Two Men And a Truck Cookeville Tn. Unfortunately, I paid because Jeremy said only he could take the money; unknown to me they left right after - I expected them to finish the job!

      Don't be fooled by this company. I practically did all my move myself over a month. They came on date selected to move. It took them 1.5 hours to move me and they billed me for 2.5 hours. What a ripoff service. No other company charges you for their guys to leave and drive somewhere else. Guys did a great job, company is a ripoff service.

      One rep came to my home to evaluate how many boxes would be needed. I am disabled, and when I opened the door for him, then stepped back with my walker, I fell. I had to call 9-1-1 to help me get up. The rep kept looking over my apt, did not ask me how I was doing, and left before the ambulance arrived! The next day, Two Men & a Truck called me and said they refused to do my move, which they had agreed to several weeks earlier. This was on a Friday afternoon. I needed to move on Monday! I only had a weekend to find a new mover. Fortunately, I was able to do so. Two Men & a Truck did return my deposit. However, there was no recognition of how much trouble they had caused me. I felt that they had decided they did not want to serve a handicapped person, which is discrimination.

      My son hired Two Men and a Truck to load a truck from his one bedroom apartment, first thing mover says, "is this all going on the truck?" Well, isn't that purpose of moving, that it all goes on a truck! Next, the mover then tells my son they are only moving what was put on the estimate, PFFFFFFFT! Next, one mover is loading the truck with boxes while the other is on his phone. After about an hour all they had loaded on the truck was boxes. They hadn't moved any furniture yet. It wasn't looking like they weren't going to get it all moved. So, me and my wife and my son started moving things to the hall and even to the truck. I caught the one guy on his phone and said to him, "he wasn't being paid to be on the phone." Finally, they didn't know how to stack a truck, I had to rearrange the load so all would fit on the truck. I would never hire this company.

      We only hired Two Men & a TRUCK to move a few pieces of furniture. No boxes required. They broke and damages items including my Medical bed. I am DISABLED with many Spinal Issues. They did not know how to properly move a dual Adjustable bed. EVEN AFTER I ASKED. They stated they knew how to move it properly. NO APOLOGIES after ripping my wires. Then tried to put them back making my bed SPARK. They've refused to repair and or replace the items damaged. 2 hours of wasted work time. $347 for an in house move of 2 DRESSERS because they do not know how to ORGANIZE or UTILIZE thier time.

      They waste time!! They need SUPERVISION at ALL TIMES!! The Columbus, Ga. location hires people with NO MOVING EXPERIENCE. The MANAGEMENT is a bad as the EMPLOYEES. They never allowed me to make a claim. They just LEFT their job, NO COMPLETE! They CLAIMED we owed $700+. (FOR A 2 HR. job they WALKED OFF). They only GAVE the ADDITIONAL UP CHARGE after we reported to the BBB to help RESOLVE the matter. My bed is needed for my Medical Issues and they've refused to do the most DECEIT act. They UP CHARGE TO JUSTIFY THEIR BAD BUSINESS PRACTICES.

      I was initially happy enough with their services, until I got the bill. I was billed $680 for 2 bedroom sets and a dining room table (everything was disassembled and the home I moved to is 8 houses down and LITERALLY ON THE SAME STREET)! They charged me for 4 hours when the men only worked 2.5. I called the office the next day and was assured they would reimburse me. That was a month ago. Their records showed 3 hrs of labor yet I was billed for 4 hours and the guys took a 30 minute break that I was billed $70 for.

      I called this morning and the woman on the phone told me they also billed me for the time it took the guys to drive to my home from their shop and the time it took them to get back to the shop after the job was done. Their original quote was for $415 and there was no mention I would be charged for the guys' drive time to get to and from the job. The guys were slow and both mentioned several times that they both had 5 children to feed. Initially, I felt bad for them both and gave them a $60 tip each. All in all, I paid $800 to have 2 small disassembled bedroom sets and a dining room table moved about 1000 feet.

      WORST MOVING EXPERIENCE EVER! I will give kudos to two employees at this location -- Joanie and Tyquan. They are the ONLY ones who have followed the Two Men and a Truck mission statement! The driver Keon was extremely unprofessional in his handling of a situation that arose and the manager T and field operations supervisor Carlos have been of little assistance in resolving my issues. I had an interstate move from Atlanta to Jacksonville. The packing of my home seemed to go smoothly -- however, I had requested and received a quote for boxes for my 65" TV and my wall art which were not on the truck when they arrived. They assured me that they would take great care of my belongings.

      Once we arrived in Jacksonville to unload the next day, things started to take a turn. I have a very large sectional sofa that the movers were well aware of when I was quoted for the move. They also had packed it on the truck in Atlanta. All of my items were removed from the truck and brought into my new home, except one section of the sofa. Keon had told me when loading that they were used to having to use the stairwells for moves and it would not be a problem. When they could not fit the piece into the elevator, the frustration level rose to a boiling point with Keon. He actually got in the truck and left Tyquan standing in the parking lot. No one could reach him as he had driven off of the complex property.

      I received a call from the move manager T trying to come up with a solution. I suggested the stairwell which was met with hesitation. 45 minutes later Keon returned and the movers got my sectional to the 4th floor stairwell landing. Because THEY DID NOT HAVE THE CORRECT TOOLS to take off standard legs on my sofa, it could not fit through the door. T wanted ME to go to Home Depot to purchase the skinny screwdriver they needed. Keon disappeared AGAIN and never returned to speak with me. I found my tools and attempted to take the legs off to fit it through the doorway but did not have the proper tool. So here's what happened....

      MY SECTIONAL WAS LEFT ON THE STAIRWELL LANDING (WHICH IS A FIRE HAZARD) AND I WAS GIVEN A $150 CREDIT ON MY $3900 MOVE!!!! INSULTING!! Also, NONE of my furniture was unwrapped or put back together (which I was assured would happen since it is part of the contract). I also have some pretty significant scratches on my dark wood furniture. I have attempted to have someone call me and resolve the issue multiple times. I suggested a resolution to Carlos 4 days ago and have not heard back. This location has broken the "Grandmother Rule" of Two Men and a Truck on many levels at this point. Next stop....the national headquarters for the company. I may be a single woman, but I will wield a mighty sword when I am wronged.

      Two Men and a Truck has agreed to refund me for my furniture that was damaged.

      Original Review: July 26, 2023

      I hired Two Men and a Truck in NJ to move a small load. You get quoted a low estimate and then it doubles when they leave. But besides that, they lost some of my items and damaged my furniture and then gave me a quote to replace. Pennies they offered, but I was fine with that. You get what you pay for. But they ruined two couches and ripped a king mattress and offered me a mattress cover to put over a newer mattress. The mattress is a year old and there is no way I want a mattress cover. I was told by the Piscataway NJ unit that now it will take 3 months to decide what the outcome will be because they had to ask a manager. That is ridiculous, they may think I will forget about it but I won't. I will wait it out then take action. Beware!!

      Turned a 6 hour move into 8.5 hours because they round up on every part of the move. Charged both coming and going. Charged from the time they say they left the office. I've lived in Florida and moved almost every year and NEVER once did any other company charge like that. DO NOT USE! There are much better options out there.
