I really wanted to like this Company, but I can’t and I will be taking my grievances to the BBB - the business practices need to be addressed & escalated to higher level. Please note: the one star has nothing to do with the moving crew, they were phenomenal at getting the job done.
Below are my pros & cons:
Pro: hardworking, dedicated moving crew and they go above & beyond to assist.
Cons:
- Nickel & dime company (fees, fees, fees even for using a cc, fees for boxes…)
-poor communication with too many hands in the pot & they’re providing a different set of instructions. This is how they increase your moving fees on the day of or very last minute.
- Most stressful move I’ve ever experienced, after 20+ years of having military contracted movers (that should be a clear warning to my vets) The one time I hired my own movers, it left us with an exceeding cost well outside of the estimate & what was budgeted.
- On the day of the move, after household goods were wrapped & loaded onto the truck I was called multiple times to be informed of an “change in my order” with an up-charge $800-1000 increase in the cost of my move because of a (1)hr delay which can be attributed to the mismanagement of these service agreements. Also, worth noting improperly packed items are not taken by the movers, not only did I have to pay an egregious increase but I still have to rent a truck to hall the rest of my items to my new home. I had no choice but to agree, the crew were directed not to offload anything until these last minute agreements were signed to satisfy the Boss aka take my money without an informed consent.
***Beware*** put your trust in local businesses that probably can offer a better service at half the price.
Two Brothers Moving was highly recommended to us. We had a complex 3 location move. We found that they were thorough, with excellent inside customer service, by Chris and Jeff. The day of the move, movers picked up two oversized items from self storage in CT, wrapped them up, delivered them to the Boston area, picked two other oversized items up and delivered them to Cape Cod….all in one day! Nisaiah and Kearnan were efficient, on time, very professional and good communicators. Everything was delivered in great condition. We highly recommend them!
Sad to report my move handled by Two Brothers Moving was incredibly mishandled and disappointing from start to finish. The process was not handled in a professional way. They never came to walkthrough my home before the move and now I have about $5000.- worth of (a total of 3 valuable items) that never arrived at my new apartment. Two Brothers promised a 1 day move from CT to NYC and the move took 4 days to be completed. After several phone calls to try to get a response & some support from Two Brothers, I was told “they don’t believe me” and “don’t have proof” I ever owned these items at all. I was charged overages for 2 days of storing my items which I paid immediately & in full….because I TRUSTED Two Brothers. Only to be told post-move that they don’t believe I ever owned these items in the 1st place and more importantly for future customers: Two Brothers told me “this happens all the time.” In complete shock & disappointment hearing this, I was also told there would be zero resolution & zero help or support from them to resolve this issue. I am heartbroken & feel extremely taken advantage of. Take a pass on Two Brothers Moving and hire some else who actually cares about their clients & their service. No good at all.

We take feedback seriously, but we must respectfully and clearly dispute the claims made in this review, as they do not reflect what occurred.
First, this move was delayed due to undisclosed delivery time restrictions at the destination building. Despite being asked in advance, we were not informed of strict timing limitations imposed by the building, which directly prevented delivery as scheduled. This was not a failure of service, but a lack of critical information provided to us by you. We understand you were not aware of this, but to hold it against us as if we did something wrong, shows a lack accountability. (This is a theme throughout our interaction with you.)
Second, upon arrival, the home was significantly unprepared and unpacked, which was unexpected and materially changed the scope of work. Our crews adapted in real time to complete the move professionally despite conditions that were far outside what had been represented beforehand.
Third, the statement that this was a “four-day move” is factually false. The move required two working days, not four. It only went beyond one day due to your failure to disclose the building restrictions despite being asked.
Regarding the alleged missing items: you are claiming loss of items that were never documented, inventoried, photographed, or proven to be moved by our company. Additionally, you signed off at the completion of the job confirming the move was satisfactory and complete. The first mention of these alleged missing items occurred more than three and a half months after the move, which makes verification or accountability impossible and is outside any reasonable or industry-standard claims window.
We did not state that “this happens all the time,” nor did we dismiss the concern without review. We explained—accurately—that claims must be supported by documentation and raised in a timely manner to be actionable.
We understand moving is stressful, but posting demonstrably inaccurate statements does not change the facts. We stand by our team, our documented process, and the service provided.
We’re sorry you are missing items and we hope that you find them. Unfortunately, there are limitations in what we can do without any documentation or proof.
Given the way you handled your move and the communication throughout, we lack confidence in the authenticity of your claim.
For future customers:
We will always do our best to accommodate whatever the circumstances are when we arrive but transparency, preparedness, and timely communication are critical to a smooth move—and we remain proud of the high standard of care we deliver every day to the clients who proudly trust us with their move.

Before I start my review let me say that I am an extremely demanding consumer. I expect perfection --- and with Two Brothers Moving I got it. The entire process was seamless. I contacted them, they sent me a proposal which I agreed to, their moving truck came exactly at the scheduled time and everything went off like clockwork.
A great experience. I'd recomend them in a heartbeat !!

Thank you for sharing your experience David!
Had to move in October. They arrived on time and packed everything in a few hours. All in all it took a couple of hours. The men that work for this moving company were polite and knowledgeable about how to disassemble the gym equipment to get it out of the door. The owner always kept in contact to see how it was going. If you need a moving company I would recommend them.
Read your contract carefully before signing and check the lowest reviews first

Kaylei — after checking our records, it was determined that you have made no contact with our company and upon further review, it was discovered that you are a friend of Melanie Driscoll who we already addressed in a prior negative review.
Reviews are intended to help provide honest feedback and inform future customers. Both you and Melanie have had no first hand experience using our services.

EDIT: After writing this review the owner called me to try and coerce into taking down my review. A review that only mentions prices so people are aware of what to expect. Take that as you will. When I refused the second time to remove my review, they took back the refund via charging me for the full $836. Is this a company you want to do business with? Coercing & illegally stealing your money because you wrote a review? Absolutely do not recommend.
There's a $150 cancelation fee and I was quoted at $836 for a 2 bedroom apartment, local move; meaning I am located currently and moving to the same town, which happens to also be the same town the company is located in. The quote was for 3 movers and 3 hours of work. I was also charged (before canceling) for the move a week in advance (i was refunded that.) But, basically, you pay no deposit, but pay for most of the move before you even meet them ($700 for me.) Most companies do it the opposite way. Most companies require a deposit and full payment once service is done. This quote also didn't include tip. To move from one end of town to the other would have cost me $900 with tip. Again, located in the same town the company is located in. If you live further away, you could potential pay more.

Hi Melanie,
We genuinely wish our experience together had been as smooth as the moves we strive to deliver every day. Unfortunately, despite multiple attempts on our end to reach a reasonable, good-faith resolution, it became clear that we were not working toward the same goal.
In any service relationship, disagreements can happen—and often, they’re opportunities for both sides to find a win-win. In this case, however, your focus appeared less on resolution and more on tactics. While we respect everyone’s right to share their perspective, using negative feedback as leverage for a refund is not a practice we can support.
To clarify for readers:
You voluntarily booked a service at a clearly disclosed price, then later changed your mind. When we asked—politely—what prompted the cancellation, you declined to provide a reason. Still, out of compassion when you stated you were unable to afford the service, we offered a refund on the simple condition that the posted review—one that lacked context and didn’t reflect any service actually performed—be removed.
This was an accommodation made solely to help you, not because of the feedback itself. Before doing so, we asked if there was anything about our process you felt we could improve. Your only concern was that you found our pricing higher than your preference. We gently reminded you that selecting a provider is always your choice, and you’re free to choose one that aligns with your budget.
When we followed up to finalize the refund, we noticed the review had been removed—then reposted the next day. This directly violated the agreement we had discussed, and understandably raised concerns about trust and intent.
We also cannot overlook the profanity and offensive comments directed at our team—people who show up every day to support clients during some of life’s more stressful moments. We do our best to extend grace, and we only ask for the same in return.
Even after all this, we continued reaching out in hopes of finding common ground, but were repeatedly met with statements about “speaking with your lawyer,” leaving little room for resolution.
At Two Brothers Moving, we are committed to fairness, transparency, and doing right by our clients. We are far from perfect, but we always strive to resolve issues sincerely when they arise. As you mentioned yourself, you are “not like anyone else” we’ve encountered—and we can certainly agree on that point.

We all know how overwhelming packing and moving can be. It would be an understatement to say I was overwhelmed when the Two Brothers moving professionals showed up. You could tell by the chaos my apartment was in. They came up with a plan and got us packed up and out of there. By the time we got to the house to unload it felt like family had showed up to move us. By the time they left I was far from feeling overwhelmed.
If you don’t know where to start with your move, I suggest starting with Two Brothers. Chris will help you out by outline what the whole process looks like and when the crew shows up it will be smooth sailing from there.
Thank you again for your help!!

Thanks for sharing your experience Christie—we love that “it felt like family was moving you!”
Quick response to a late night Yelp project request. Strong and frequent communication and coordination throuhgout planning and day-of activities. Moving team was on time, fully staffed, and very efficient. They were careful with all of our belongings (open bags, storage boxes, couches, mattress, and a deisel filing cabinet.)
Moving is always a hassle but they made it smooth and easy. Recently used Two Brothers to move and could not have been a better experience. From the communication with Dan and Chris to the movers. Nisiah, Isaiah, and Kearnan were friendly, courteous, and respectful with our belongings. Even great with my one year old! They disassembled and reassembled all our furniture and put every box exactly where we needed it. Will use them again for next move and highly recommend
