Galt Moving Denver

We used them for our move in March 2014. They were fantastic! They helped me out in a crunch as my original movers backed out at the last minute. The crew were really friendly and very careful. They laid out mats (as it was snowing in the morning) and made sure to cover everything in our new house — floors and even the railings and banisters. They were fast and watched the time to help with costs. I have moved several times and there’s always been something broken but with Galt we had no problems — no scratches or breakage. They were awesome!

What a bunch of great guys! I am so thankful I took a chance on these guys & used them for my big move. I was so nervous about the logistics of this move as I am not originally from the area and the guys at Galt Moving really made sure that everything was taken care of for me so I did not have to worry about the details. I had an easy experience booking the move, estimates and working with management. And the movers were the absolute best, on time, super helpful and communicative.

In the last four years we have made four major moves and GALT Moving has been by far the very best moving company we have worked with. They have been the only company that sent a person out to look at our things and the estimate made was spot on. The size of truck needed, the amount of time to do the move and the number of movers needed was perfect. Our estimator was professional as were all of the movers. We didn’t have a thing scratched or damaged. All items were wrapped and taken care of as if the items were theirs. This is a fantastic family owned business and should be given serious consideration when hiring a team. I would definitely hire this company again!

No thank you.
I have moved 8 times in the last 10 years for my partner’s work and have never left a negative review, but this move experience was not a pleasant one.
1. Estimator had full access to our home and garage and estimated our moving quote at s $ 800 and cost of move was 50% of estimate at $ 1200. Yikes. 50% over on an estimate likely means your estimator has no idea what they are doing.
2. Galt Movers broke our treadmill, our grill, a ping pong table & the leg of a chair (and other small items). We did not notice the ping pong damage until after the 30 day window for reporting damage claim. All of the other moving companies we have worked with have a 90 day claim window, as many boxes and items are not inspected and/​or unpacked within 30 days of move-​in.
3. Movers did not bring a big enough truck, so my spouse did 4 trips back to the house to get the remainder of the items that Galt did not have room for on their truck. Again, Galt had full access to our home and garage and should have been able to plan for our moving requirements.
4. I witnessed mattresses unloaded from the truck were not wrapped, were dropped on driveway, etc. All other moving companies have wrapped the mattresses and been careful that they are not dragged across dirty trucks, driveways & floors.
5. I witnessed our expensive gas grill dropped upon being moved from the truck. I heard one mover say, «you broke it» to one of the other movers. Our grill will not start properly, now.
6. Movers broke our treadmill during the move-​snapped the cord connecting top half from bottom half. I requested that the movers wait until my spouse was back so he could help them move it carefully, but they insisted on moving it immediately and broke the treadmill moving it down the stairs.
7. We provided a claim to Galt and Galt took over 2 weeks to get back with us. They only responded after email follow ups. They really did not seem interested in post move service.
8. Assessor came out to look at damage a few weeks after claim submitted. Employee said he would call back that same day with additional information on the broken treadmill. We did not hear from this employee again.
9. We were offered $ 317 to settle for the damage (broken treadmill, gas grill, leather chair), per their contract/​service/​insurance agreement. Read the fine print. With this «bargain» mover, you may get cheap service, inexperienced movers and a low level of insurance coverage on your valued possessions, like we did.
The hassle and headache of working with this company were not worth it for us.

Absolutely AMAZING service! These guys were hard working, polite and everything else I could have wanted. Marcus, Rick and Javier moved my mother-​in-​law to a third story apartment in three hours and I would hire them again without a doubt. Javier even brushed the snow off of her car. I would feel comfortable with any of these men in my home even without being present. They were clean and very professional. They wrapped and padded all furniture and breakables. Nothing was damaged and they were quick and efficient! You can’t beat their prices either! Absolutely NO extra charges, they are the real deal! Don’t hesitate they are the best you can get!

I received a personal recommendation to use Galt Moving during our recent move. The distance between our old home and new home…1 mile. We moved and packed the small items ourselves. The only reason we needed a moving company was to move large items. Everything was organized for the movers, in fact they made a comment about how easy the move was going to be.
This is not my first rodeo. My husband and I have moved to many different states using professional movers provided for relocation. Like I said before, this current move was 1 mile. What could go wrong?
The positive:
The movers arrived on time. They called when they were a block away from the house. The company sent 3 movers. (The lead mover made the comment, «This is a two man job.») The movers were friendly.
The negatives:
The plastic wrap needed to be put on thicker. Galt has a four hour minimum, we clocked 2.5 hours, so I don’t know why they didn’t put forth more effort in covering all of our furniture properly.
Our oversized Norwalk chair ($ 1600+) was damaged in the move, even though there was some plastic wrap on it. One mover carried our chair out of the house by himself, he probably needed another person to assist him because he needed to maneuver getting out of the front door with an oversized chair and he lost his grip. The chair has a rip on the arm and it looked like it rubbed against something because our beige chair has a black mark where it is ripped.
When my husband called the office to make the arrangements for our move, he told them we needed mattress boxes. On the day of the move, we double checked with the movers. Their response, «Yeah, we have bags, they are $ 15 a piece.» My husband specifically said boxes, especially since we have an expensive queen sized mattress. We would have gone somewhere and bought mattress boxes if we knew they only used bags, which provide no support.
The moving company offers only one type of insurance, $.60 per pound, not full replacement coverage. We were paid $.60 per pound for the damage, we received a check for the damaged chair for a whole whopping $ 75…the chair to be repaired will cost $ 475 + fabric.
I will not be referring this company or using them again in the future.

Love These Guys!
I could not ask for a better move. Very Professional. On Time. NOTHING scratched, dented or broken. Best move ever!!!

Galt Moving did such a good job moving me the first time that I have used them again and yet again! First they partially moved me out of a storage unit into a row house. Then, they moved me from the row house to a new home and the rest of things out of the storage unit to the new home. Several different crews did the work. Everyone was friendly and professional. They always showed up and did the work as promised and cost me less than anticipated based on the estimate.
I HIGHLY recommend them.

I don’t usually write reviews on any sites but had to in this case. I gave this company two stars only because of the actual movers, who were awesome, they get the 2 stars and the management gets none. I had issues with them being late, and not quoting me a correct rate even though they said they did, and when i questioned it there was nothing i could do because i signed the move agreement.
All in all, the movers were awesome but the management of the company is awful, and ended up yelling at me when i questioned them in a he said/​she said battle! I would NEVER recommend this company to anyone because the management was terrible to deal with.
And on top of everything i dealt with, they don’t take credit cards!

Awesome move. It went so smoothly, and the movers were really respectful of our things. From setting up the move to completion, galt was professional, timely, and easy to work with. I’ve recommended my best friend move with galt in a few months– and that says it all!

I cringe at the thought of hiring movers — I’ve heard so many horror stories. The Galt Moving team was professional from start to finish, trustworthy and a good value.
I arranged for a move from our small Denver starter home to a bigger suburban home for our growing family. The team took great care of our stuff by wrapping all our furniture (dressers, nightstands) and laid down pads and rugs on the floors. While unpacking I noticed a few broken glasses from our kitchen boxes, but that’s as to be expected, I suppose.
Estimate was pretty right on, no hidden extra costs.

Used Galt last week for the second time in the past year and a half. They did a wonderful job the whole way through and the movers were quite nice. They thoroughly wrapped everything that needed it, worked quickly, and were done well within their promised time frame. Especially for a local-​ish move, I would highly recommend them!

Larry, George and James did an excellent job on my move today. They were exceptionally courteous, professional, and above all– hard working. Though the hourly rate was very slightly higher than other places I called, I actually saved money because 1) they did not charge for drive time to and from my start and end destinations– which was important because I was moving from Evergreen 2) they had no surcharges or fees for plastic wrapping, fuel, etc… and 3) they were so efficient that they were below the estimated time. Additionally, they were careful with my items and did not break or scratch anything. I am very impressed with their work ethic. My neighbor watched them moving me, and hired them for her upcoming move– based upon watching their hard work. I will be hiring them again and will continue to support local businesses. They are also on file with BBB. YAY for GALT! You guys were worth every penny!

Larry and Dave did such a great job moving my things this past weekend (July 08). They worked very well together in moving, wrapping/​protecting furniture and then unloading everything into my new apartment. They worked very quickly, efficiently and were very courteous in asking where I wanted my things placed. There was zero damage and the final cost was lower than the estimate. Any time I spoke with Michael Galt, he was also courteaous and made himself readily available if I needed anything or had any questions.
I would recommend Galt to anyone — as such, I already have.
Thank you! NJDavis

I used Galt to move into a new place last week. The move went fine, except that the movers caught some wrapping on the railing down the stairs. The workers immediately contacted the manager, who claimed that everything would be taken care of – so I assumed everything would be fine — however, it took me threatening a law suit to get them to cover the damages that that their workers caused (and I can only hope that the sum we agreed upon will cover it). Moving furniture is one thing, but stepping up when something goes wrong is the sign of a good company. This company failed.

Dishonest. Watch the clock ‘cos they overcharge. Not recommended.

Galt did a great job of moving my stuff into storage, as well as my new house! The movers were professional, funny, and quick.
Considering that I didn’t pack some of my stuff very well, I was expecting a lot more damage coming out storage, and absolutely nothing is damaged. I’m amazed.
Also for a second time in a row, the bid was actually lower than originally estimated, so there were no hidden fees and the estimate was honest, which I’ve heard from others is rare.
These guys did a fantastic job twice and I would recommend them without reservation!
As a side note: Galt was the only moving company that I found on the better business bureau with no complaints filed against them.
