Piper and Stephanie were awesome. What a great service that is that they provided me. I’d like to book them again for my final move into the house I am to buy at Trilogy in Nipomo.

I have left two messages for Jenny to call me back so that I can book this move end of July. Please someone ask her to call me!!!!

How did we disappoint you and what can we do to make things right?

There were a number of issues with the move and experience.

1)

I had a number of instances where I was promised a call back that I did not receive. Instead, I had to follow up myself and was forced to work with multiple different reps who all had to keep reviewing things/calling others to get info.

Ultimately, this caused issue as my move was happening on a short time frame due to COVID and I really needed to be interacting with one person as much as possible since there were a number of variables. I did my best to make this happen, but I can't make someone else call me.

2)

The rep I worked with, Sarah, did not adequately explain how your minimums worked and frankly I felt like the information was intentionally obscured.

To expand on that, I was looking at two places, one in Oak Park (upstairs) and another in Tarzana (single story). The move was from N. Hollywood. I explained to Sarah that I was getting the estimate for the location further away just in case, but that it was likely we would be going to Tarzana. At that point, she told me that the move would be less if it was shorter. However, this was not the case.

It turns out that what she should have been VERY clear about was that the maximum would come down, but that the minimum moving from North Hollywood was the same 4hrs no matter what.

So, after I found out my final destination would be Tarzana, I called back to ask that the estimate be adjusted downward as the drive would now be shorter and the move would no longer involve stairs. Unfortunately, it was at this point, when I no longer had a chance to shop a quote, that I was told that your minimum was based solely on the fact that the move was originating from N. Hollywood, regardless of where we were going.

Frankly, this felt entirely deceptive and the only response Sarah could provide when I asked about it was that "[I] must have misunderstood."

3)

The movers showed up apprx 45 min late. My move was scheduled for 10:45. I got a call from the movers at 10am that they were running "a bit late and would arrive around 11." They showed up at around 11:25.

4)

I was told numerous times that you take COVID seriously, and that your warehouse lobby only allows one person in at a time. While that is good, I still prefer not to go inside due to my own health conditions as well as those of my family.

In light of that, I scheduled a box pickup at the Oxnard warehouse, and while everyone was kind enough to make sure that the box drop was as touchless as possible, I was still shocked to see that not a single person in the lobby, including the customer who arrived before me, was wearing a mask. That is 3 people behind a desk, and a customer.

I know you cannot control customer behavior, but how can you be taking every precaution if none of your employees is wearing a mask? Don't they care about their own health as well as the people they live with? What about other customers who have to come in and interact with them?

5)

I want to note that the two guys that helped me move were extremely easy to work with and I don't want any of my complaints to reflect poorly on them.

Ultimately, my move took only 3 hours and was actually completed before the original 4hr window of 10:45-2:45 despite the movers showing up late. I think it is fair for me to be refunded the unworked hour (25% of $876 = $219) as it was clearly an unnecessary part of the estimate both upfront and in real time.

Please feel free to contact me back at Email address removed or Phone number removed.

Thank you,
Ben

What do you like about our services?

I moved from San Diego County to SLO County. I found Meathead Movers online, and honestly, was amused and intrigued by the name. However, there’s nothing goofy about this company. Of all the movers I’ve ever hired, Meathead Movers were the most professional, friendly and competent. I had, and will still have, a complicated and multi-faceted move. They moved me out of my house on May 21 and drove back to San Luis Obispo where my stuff sat in their truck for ten days before I moved into a temporary rental on June 1. That was yesterday.

Going from a 2400 sf home to an 1100 sf rental was a challenge, but we made it happen. More than half of my belongings are in a storage unit at their headquarters in SLO for the next two months. Then I will move into my new home. Crazy? Yes. But thanks to Jenny, my move coordinator and especially to Caden, the guy who drove the truck and managed every facet of this craziness, it wasn’t so much daunting as it was (and still is) an adventure. You guys are amazing. Thank you for making what could’ve been a nightmare ... fun!!!

What do you like about our services?

The communication was very good with the scheduling. Easy to make the move arrangements with the staff.

Kept me current on day of move and what to expect. The team that met us for the move was both very professional and hard working. Alex was beyond fair and honest with his estimate. He and the other team member made the move as easy as could be.

Will definitely be using this company for all our future moves.

THANKS Alex! Great job.

What do you like about our services?

This is my 5th move with your company. Jacob Sanchez and Felix Zendejas were absolutely amazing! They worked extremely hard and are a true asset to Meathead Movers! I have already referred numerous people to your company and certainly will continue to do so.

Any moving my children or I will need in the future will only be done by Meathead (if Jacob and Felix are available that would be outstanding! Meathead Movers get a 10+++!!!

Sincerely Grateful,
Sheila Pope

How did we disappoint you and what can we do to make things right?

Very unprofessional. Did not have any knowledge how to move furniture. Left furniture behind in old residence and had to be told to go back to get those items. Took way too long. I think this was done this way to raise the amount for the service.

What could we do to improve?

I had to ask the two guys to put my recliners back together & to put my couch right side up! They didn’t put the mirrors back on the dresser, they forgot to pack one of the dresser mirrors all together! I had to call them back into my home as they were all ready loaded up in there truck to leave because they left there Dolly in my kitchen!!

The movers were prompt, constantly moving, checking in with me frequently and able to move the furniture and boxes quickly and efficiently. In addition, it’s impressive to watch athletes like the number 3 ranked California power lifter in his class lift large loads.
