What customers said about moving-related storage
College Hunks Hauling Junk and Mo…Celso and Benjamin were polite and professional. We had two locations for our furniture to go to. They confirmed what items and locations and got everything delivered to the right place. They were very careful when moving our furniture. I’ve use college hunks services before and these two movers were by far the most efficient and polite to work with.
Kellogg MoversI had an awesome experience with Kellogg Movers from start to finish. Their communication was top-notch and they were responsive, clear, and made the whole process feel easy and stress-free. What really stood out was how quickly they got things moving (literally). The same day I called, they were already at my…

They were very careful with all of my furniture and belongings, and took extra care to protect the walls and avoid any damage. The entire crew was professional, hardworking, and respectful…
College Hunks Hauling Junk and Mo…**Update as of 04/14/2026, I've called College Hunks 5x times and created a "claim" without any call or response from the franchise. It is obvious this the priority was to comment on the google review, rather than resolve the issue and damage.** At first, I thought the movers did an excellent job. However, after…
