Not impressed with the Yellow Bird team that was sent out for my move from Surrey to Victoria. They were hardworking, but a bit careless and disorganized. The team arrived late at the origin (although they brought in an extra person to help on that end), resulting in them having to rush for the ferry, and when they arrived at the destination, they told me I was lucky that they didn't just wait for the next ferry so they could charge me more. At the destination, they also rushed, breaking a bookshelf in the process and leaving several marks and dings, and one gash in the wall, which was then concealed

I am fairly certain all the positive reviews must be fake. Do yourself a favour and use a reputable moving company (it will be the same price or cheaper). Oomovers is just a referral company, that gets moving leads and then gets paid a referral fee for sending work to other moving companies (or a random guy with a truck/trailer). My experience today was horrible, the move had to be canceled as they didn't have the appropriate truck (it was a small trailer). When I called oomovers to discuss it became clear they didn't care. They recommended the movers can make multiple trips.... at 165/hr.

Oh I wish I could give 0 stars. The company overcharged me a whole hour. They had me wait 5+ hours at the pick up location because their truck broke down and when the truck was fixed and on the way again, the truck broke down again. There were many inconsistencies in the story. Also, I am missing my most expensive item (Apple desktop computer). The team was mostly nice except the individual I talked to mostly whose name was Alex. This guy is unprofessional and said I shouldve have been watching my items, as if I was expecting a moving business to steal from me. After reading multiple

Despite booking weeks in advance, they called day of to check if they were still needed. We were busy packing and couldn't answer the phone, and they cancelled the appointment with no input from us. In the end they left us high and dry with minimal assistance.
