Avoid Taylor Moving and Storage for your next move

We have moved several times over the last few years, both international and domestic, but this was the most frustrating move of all. Their crews were great, but it took more than 3 months to get our household at the destination (more than twice the time estimated). This may or may not have been Taylors doing, but we have not received one update during this period, unless specifically asked for. Just before delivery at the destination, you get an invoice for additional port charges and storage, which were forwarded as excluded services. However the most frustrating problems started after delivery, there were several damaged items and Taylor flat out refused to compensate the replacement value for an item which was clearly damaged beyond use.We had full insurance coverage for this move and it is unbelievable that Taylor tried to safe a few hundred dollars (insurance!) money over the backs of their customers. Their attitude became rude (abrupt and short emails) or chose to not reply to messages at all. No, I would not recommend Taylor for your upcoming move.

I am sorry you are not satisfied but happy you did like the moving crews.
On international moves we place an order with the steamship line for your moving container, this is how all moves must be moved when going overseas. They give us an eta to destination at that point but with the worldwide bottleneck in the supply chain the steamship line is beholden to factors beyond their control. The port charges are not known until the goods actually arrive at the port. This in turn is charged back to you as outlined on our contract.
On international moves we do ask for a valued inventory to be filled out. This means each item we ask you to list and place a replacement value on it. The cost of the insurance is then charged on the calculated total of these items. If a customer does not list items on the inventory they will not be insured. In this case, the items mentioned were not settled as they were not on the value inventory and hence were not insured.
I am looking at our communication as the goods were in transit. With the supply chain disruption worldwide it was difficult to track your container however we should have done a better job of keeping you "in the loop" as far as it's sailing times, time at port etc rather than just communication a few weeks out of delivery and I have used this as further training for our team.

Moving from Canada to the US.

I cant say enough good about Taylor Moving and their employees.
Everyone I interacted with were phenomenal, from my initial point of contact in the sales department, to their dispatch, to the guys who packed, loaded, and unloaded the truck.
The estimate was almost to the dollar on the money.
Things could not have gone smoother.
Moving to a new country is painful experience. Taylor made the worst part as painless as it could have been.
Im so glad I chose them.

Excellent service moving an Appartment

I needed to move in a relatively short notice. I contacted Tylor moving and received the same day a quote based on a list of content I sent them. I was lucky to have an available spot for my move a few days after.
The crew arrived on time, a crew of 3 young guys. They were very friendly and polite. They loaded everything very carefully, making sure to wrap properly any item that could have been damaged. The offload to the new location was as efficient.
When they finished, the crew lead approached me with his iPad to ask for the payment. With all the stories I heard in the past about how movers increase the price by charging for packing materials etc., I was scared of the number he's going to give me. I was amazed to get a price based on the time it took them that was lower than the quote in more than 20%. With a nice tip I gave them I ended up paying less than the quote.
I would definitely recommend Tylor Moving to anyone looking for excellent service at good price.

Best moving company ever

We used Taylor Moving 16 years ago and were happy with their service. When we decided to move again we reached out toTaylor to help with our downsizing move. Overall excellent experience- competitive prices, excellent communication before the move and the 3 movers were efficient, courteous and a pleasure to deal with. Thank you!!

GTA move

We moved within the GTA. We first had to move about half our things to storage for staging and then had everything delivered to our new place at the same time.
The moving crews were friendly, helpful, professional and careful. The price was very competitive. We were very satisfied with all aspects of this move and would definitely use them again.

Moving

None of the movers wearing masks. Very arrogant and states they don’t have to. Banging walls and doors. Damaging property and blocking parking spaces owned by tenants. Very unprofessional. Would not use again

I am sorry if you were not happy. We do mandate mask wearing inside the home however in open spaces the crew is free not to. (outside) If you could let us know your name and move date by email rick@ataylormoving.com I will follow up.

Home move

Have not moved in over 35 years. Taylor was the first to respond to request for quotes. Paul, estimator, was very helpful. Pick up of returnable boxes was easy. Crew loading and unloading very very respectful, clean, quick and hard working. Outstanding experience!

House Move

Excellent move. We were moving from 2 separate addresses to one in Halton. The experience was good from the start from Mark’s quote till the last box was unloaded. Sean and his crew of movers were professional, polite, courteous and quick. Our closing on our purchased home was delayed but the dispatch team (I believe names were Kimberly/Chris) were very accommodating and helped alleviate the stress of the situation. I highly recommend Taylor Moving (Burlington) and would definitely use them again.
