“The two men that the company sent worked consistently and carefully. Nothing was damaged or missing during the move. The price I was quoted was about half of what I actually paid.”
Sally RadovichVerified ReviewerGoogle“The movers/packers did a great job. But no one ever came out to see how large some of our pieces were, the truck was too small, and an additional hour of labor was added. Several items were left.”
Faith HolcombeVerified ReviewerGoogle“The movers were professional and kind and did a nice job getting us moved out and in. Our final cost was nearly 50% higher than the quote, and they left a bad scratch on our new hardwood floors.”
Peter MarconiVerified ReviewerGoogle“The movers themselves were phenomenal—in and out, efficient, and handled my property with care. I was disappointed that the dispatcher did not ensure they came to my apartment building on time.”

Helpful Virginia moving resources
How we score moving companies
Every mover on moveBuddha is scored on the same six factors, weighted by how much each one changes a move.
- Quotes & payment optionsWeighs most
The heaviest factor, because price certainty is where moves go wrong. We reward estimates you can hold a mover to, and terms disclosed before you pay.
- Online reputationMajor factor
An objective read from third parties rather than from the mover. The Google rating for the company's headquarters sets the band; Trustpilot, BBB, and independent review sites are read alongside it.
- ServicesMajor factor
The range a mover can actually cover, scored across seven categories, with extra credit for the uncommon ones most companies hand off to a subcontractor.
- Customer supportSupporting factor
How easily you can reach a human, and how clearly the mover sets expectations before, during, and after the move. Verified against company documentation and direct outreach.
- Review feedbackSupporting factor
A company's share of positive customer feedback, converted straight to points, with no curve and no editorial adjustment.
- State availabilityMinor factor
The lightest factor, and deliberately so: wide coverage helps more readers reach a mover, but it says nothing about how good the move will be.
