The actual moving service was good, but the price is outrageous. The customer service support was unfriendly. I called to ask about extra hours from Molly and was quoted a wrong rate and poor customer service. When the service was completed, I was shock to see the final bill amount. I called to confirm the price, Molly wasnt there, a man replied with care less attitude when I told him the rate that was quoted by Molly. As I mentioned earlier, this rating is for the price and phone customer support. The two movers worked really hard (Larry & his buddy)

Moving and choosing a company to facilitate the move can be challenging. But Walsh made it easy. They gave us a fair price, offered a discount for cash, showed up on time and delivered in every way. Their men were amazing.
Ritchie, Joe, Alvin, Sergio, Nick and Larry did an incredible job of ensuring all our belongings, including antiques and lots of glass items were loaded and unloaded safely without any breakage or losses. They delivered two trucks to our new desert home in over 108 degree temperatures and insisted on doing it all to ensure I only watched and instructed where things go. At 75

Just wanted to thank you again for working with me through that hot mess of a day with moving. Your guys were the best part of anything that happened yesterday. We ended up with a ridiculously large truck but it is all loaded and we are on our way. Really appreciate Allen, James and Alvin for their efficient, cheerful presence. They represent you well.

We have used Walsh two times. Both times were absolutely worth it! I was amazed at how hard working the men were. Absolutely no damage to the residence or furniture. I highly recommend them and will use them again in the future.
