I have never ever worked with a company so disrespectful, untrustworthy, and outright dishonest as Boerman Moving and Storage! The move across the US was a disaster when Boerman management decided to move up the date the furniture was being delivered to the new house with just 36 hours notice. When they announced this change, we were still only way across the US ourselves, and the painters and carpet layers were busy working in the house under the assumption they had 4 more days to complete their work. Boerman did not tell us they could change the move in date after it was agreed upon by

Working with Boerman Moving was an incredible experience. This was our first time using a moving company as well as making a long distance move - from Illinois to California. With so many moving parts to a long distance move, working with Boerman removed so much of the stress. We started by working with Ken Wolff, who was the consultant that… came to our house to review what we’d be moving and reassured us how the packing, loading, and move would be handled. Ken was very friendly and professional as well as set perfect expectations for our experience. He was involved all along the

Ryan Darling and his crew did a great job moving my wife and I from a townhouse and into a 2 story single family home. The crew was professional, yet personable at the same time. They made sure to ask where things should be placed in our new home if they were unsure. They were also polite, asking if they could use the washroom and saying thank you for water/Gatorade and snacks we provided. Lastly they were careful and meticulous, making sure not to damage any items or ding up any walls. I would recommend this crew to anyone that is looking to make a move!

Boerman Moving helped us move from our 3rd floor apartment to single family home. All 3 guys showed up on time and were very professional and caring of our belongings. They helped us tremendously with packing some items and getting them into position in our new home. You get what you pay for and they were worth every penny.

Boerman handled both our move out of the house to storage...as well as our move from storage to the new house. Alex, Jonathan, and Luis did an exceptional job. Always so careful and very courteous. Some good people there! Ken checked in with us before, during, and after the move. Furnishings were dismantled and reassembled, floors were protected, furnishings were well protected during moves and storage. the team was willing to do whatwver they could to help us out with this move and make sure we were satisfied. Excellent service!

Boerman is THE BEST! I highly recommend them!!! Our whole move was a breeze from start to finish. They provided a service and experience that everyone moving should have - absolutely excellent! They communicated thoroughly, handled our belongings with great care, and arrived promptly cross country. Our driver, Stacy, was timely, professional, and so nice! Every employee we worked with (Mike Boerman, Brenda, everyone) made us feel so taken care of. They have fantastic customer service and provide a top notch moving experience! I cannot say enough about Boerman! Definitely hire them for your next
