I requested a quote and they send their long distance moving manager named Wes over to do so. He did not have a on a mask approaching my door. I also shared that I had another service person in my small bungalow style home who was physically distanced and that he needed a mask to be inside. I politely asked if he had one, he said no. I then asked if he was willing to share his vaccination status and proof of it prior to entering my home he was not. He tried to offer me a card and I declined. I thanked him and he grabbed my door aggressively as of to slam it while I was standing in the threshold

Submitted a request on the Mayflower website for a full service move - packing, moving and storage. Not cheap by any means, but more than willing to pay for it. Got matched with Ed at Mayflower/Guardian in TN. Had the onsight walk-through then.....nothing. Four weeks later still no quote or contact, even after calling the office after week three. Terrible!

I highly recommend Guardian. The staff was flexible with us on our delivery date/time being moved last minute. The team that unloaded the truck was professional and polite.

Jack and Earl were phenomenal with the move! All of my goods were handled with extreme care. No damages, they treated my house like they’d treat their own. Sue coordinated my move and walked me through each step of the process. Thank you all so much. Guardian is the company to move with! I recommend to everyone!

We were dreading moving day. Mom was leaving her home of 40 years and was understandably sad. There was an all day monsoon to top it off. Justin and Will made it so much better. They started by being exactly on time. They carefully wrapped her furniture in quilts and protected her treasures. Throughout it all - even with a somewhat fussy building manager - they were polite and cool-headed. Everything was placed exactly where Mom wanted it, with nothing damaged, and they even carried off the boxes we had broken down. Mariona in the Guardian office was very kind.

Guardian Moving Systems did a stellar job on my mom's recent move to a senior living center. Owen and Mariona in the office were very courteous, helpful, and efficient.
Moving crew Barry, Derrick, and Devin arrived 5 minutes early, worked extremely hard and productively, and even helped us get some remaining furniture moved to different rooms and places.
All furniture and belongings arrived safely to the new place, and the cost was very fair. Heartily recommend!

If it was possible I would give zero stars. The worst experience with this company two days ago. Mariona from the office staff is the rudest and most unprofessional person I have ever dealt with. Completely disrespectful and unhelpful. She told the packers Guardian sent to leave all of our items that are stored in pods outside of the pods in a warehouse. This would have left all of our items unsecured. When I asked the packers what I was supposed to do in getting my items back into the pods, they said "Mariona said we ain't getting paid to put it back in." Absolutely unbelievable

Major relocation across the country to our new home in California. From the original estimate to the load day and even while we were driving across the country, the team was great. Unload day was perfect as well. We are very satisfied. Though we never intend to undertake such a huge move again, if we did, I would call Mayflower.
Thanks for your professional team.

VERY disappointed in my service with you all. My mother and I used your moving company and didn't receive our belongings until a month and 5 days after even though we were guaranteed a fast move with a contract. After wearing the same clothes for a month received our belongings broken and scratched up. My brand new headboard was broken. 2 of our dinning room table chairs were broken in half. You would think after all the hassle we would have received a discount but we did not! We instead received rude customer service. Finally after saying enough is enough, we asked to speak the owner and
