Secure Movers

I used these guys under the name Secure Movers in Tampa. In the description it tells you that they are professional, timely, no smoking, uniformed personnel, etc. I talked with Mickey. I also talked with Aleesha who is the assistant. I had a difficult job for them to do (moving one smaller house to a larger house) and the 3 guys that did it, did fairly well with the exception of stopping at a convenience store on my time because I didn't have any water for them. One of the guys asked me not to call Secure Movers for my second move out of a storage unit and to just call him personally. I didn't because I'm a small business owner myself and I don't like when employees attempt to divert jobs. The guys also backed the moving truck into my front yard, ripping the sod from it. They almost couldn't get their truck out. But other than that, and taking much longer than scheduled - it got done and they weren't worse than previous movers we used so I scheduled them to come back to do a simple job - moving from a storage unit to my house. They come back, and it was like they worked in slow motion. A job that took my husband and myself 2 hours took them 4 hours. They had 3 guys (more expensive) when the assistant told me it would be a 2 man job. This time they scratched our wall and they couldn't move a bed into a room that my husband and I ended up doing while they were still there. I called the office while the guys were still there and let them know that I was dissatisfied and they gave me the runaround. Aleesha promised that she would call me back after she spoke with Mickey that next day...that was a week ago! The company has misrepresented itself stating, "Mickey’s team is a dedicated professionally certified team, which prides itself on complete customer satisfaction." That wasn't my experience. Also Mickey lies when he says, “Treat the customer better than the customer expects to be treated.” I didn't expect to be treated the way that I was, and when I complained I essentially got the hand. DO NOT use this moving company.

mediocre at best

They were available on short notice, which was the only good thing.

Movers smoked on the job and were slow. Move was paid for by the hour. I personally had to assist to speed up the move. Otherwise it would have taken an additional 2-3 hours. In addition to the sloth like pace, there was also a few pieces of damaged furniture. The movers personally called and apologized after the move, which is a small consolation, but when the owner was notified he acted like he cared, but no action was taken. Its been 3 weeks since the move and no offer to fix the furniture has been made. Or at least offer a 5% discount for my troubles. For a 2 bedroom apt move it took 5 hours and cost $650. Definitely not worth it. Would not recommend this company to anyone.

They also go by Tampa Movers and a few other names.

Probably easier to change names a few times after you get a bad reputation.



Choose carefully when you move.

Dear Mickey and Company, and I don't mean the Disney World Mickey!



Yours is no Mickey Mouse company. I had other moving companies come to my house and give me an estimate which wasn't much different than the estimates I got over the phone. They were half of what I expected. That told me they didn't know what they were doing or expected to get the job by low balling then hit me with the real amount at the end. I did my own estimate as I have moved several times. Even I was wrong.



Mickey, your estimate was $76 over what you quoted, which was a miracle. I didn't realize just how much stuff I had squirreled away in pockets around that house. Your guys finished my packing, taking care to insulate rather than to just cover my precious items. I had been collecting stuff for many years and have chosen carefully. Every piece I own arrived to my new home intact, unscratched and all accounted for.



Let's move on the my most precious piece...my baby grand piano. I demanded professional care to be taken and your staff took greater care than I expected. At first I was watching over my baby grand like a mother hen. When I saw the care that was being given I walked away but not without peeping thru the blinds to see if they would cut corners if they thought I wasn't watching. No dice. They weren't even aware of me lurking in the background in the first place and most certainly didn't see me hiding in the bushes watching thru the curtains. They were all involved in the business at hand.



The most interesting thing was the creative way they hit the road with my lawn furniture strapped to the back of the truck like the Beverly Hillbillies!!! I wanted it to go and they made it fit! I could have come back for it but they insisted it make the trip.



I followed that truck and laughed the entire two hour trip to my new home.



When we got to the new house your guys practically ran unloading and setting up the new house. It was late and I was so exhausted after packing for a week, looking for a new home, arranging the movers and cleaning the old house that by the time we got to the new house I wanted to just lie down and cry. I could have easily done that because the fellas unloaded that truck and took direction from me while I was practically flat on my face in the front yard. When I thought I couldn't hold myself up anymore I asked the guys to just get it all off the truck, in the garage and go home. They did.



Thanks again for a professional, safe move.

I must admit that there are not many things that impress me; however, I was quite impressed with Secure Movers. The gentlemen that moved my family were very personal, yet professional. They used the utmost care in moving my furniture and other personal items. I was quite amazed at their techniques for completing the move. The price that I was quoted was the price that I paid. It is a difficult task to find honest contractors that will do as they promise, without attempting to scam the consumer in some type scheme or play on words. Secure Movers even did a follow up to see how the move went. I will refer Secure Movers to all of my clients for their moves.
