Hard working employees

Mikayeel is very kind and patient. He will work with you to ensure your move goes well and facilitates with everyone involved saving time and hassle for the customer.
Evan is very friendly and provides great service. He is very knowledgeable about how things should be packed and is open to communicate throughout the entire process.

AN EXCEPTIONAL MOVING EXPERIENCE!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Mishael and Deion. Moving our family home across a 9-hour distance was a huge undertaking, but they made the entire experience remarkably smooth and stress-free.

From the very beginning, they were punctual, professional, and maintained excellent communication throughout the move. Every item was handled with exceptional care and attention to detail, giving us complete confidence that our belongings were in the best hands.

What truly set them apart, however, was the way they connected with our family. While working tirelessly, they took the time to engage our children with riddles and conversations about classic storybooks. It was such a thoughtful touch and showed the kind of people they are beyond their professional skills.

After a long day and many hours on the road, they didn't rush to finish. They stayed late to help set everything back up, made sure things were where we wanted them, and checked repeatedly to ensure we were completely satisfied before leaving.

Mishael and Deion went above and beyond at every step. Their professionalism, kindness, work ethic, and attention to customer satisfaction were truly outstanding. I would recommend them without hesitation to anyone planning a move. They turned what could have been a stressful experience into an incredibly positive one. Thank you both!

Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed review! Long-distance moves come with a lot of moving parts, and we’re so glad Mishael and Deion kept things punctual, well communicated, and carefully handled from start to finish.

Going the extra mile at the end of a long day, setting everything back up and checking in until you were completely happy, is what we want every customer to experience. We’ve passed your kind words along to both of them. Enjoy settling into your new home!

This is the worst moving company I have ever used ! Over charged , lost items and what I did receive was mostly , chopped , scratched or broken. Came back 3 times to deliver because they kept loosing items . This experience made me realize to never use a moving company again . Get a u haul and do it yourself
I’m sorry but a $150 credit was far from covering the damages I had and was charged over 5k for the move !

Hi Stella,

We're sorry your move fell so far short of what you expected. Damaged belongings, missing items and repeat trips to complete a delivery are not our standard, and we understand your frustration.

Our team worked with you directly to review your claim and reach a settlement, and we took your feedback seriously. We hope the resolution was to your satisfaction and that you're doing well in your new home.

Nightmare experience, lost and damaged all my expensive items

I wish I were writing a 5-star review. I hired them to move me from Vancouver to Toronto. They told me they would arrive on the day of the first move from 8 - 9 am. 9:05, no one was there; zero call to give me a heads-up. I had to call them; they showed up at 10:30 am. They gave me a delivery range of 8 - 26 days to arrive...I am now on day 24 of 26 and still have no clue when my stuff will arrive. They tell you you will get 3-4 days' notice. This puts my drop-off past the window. I would not use this service again. For $5,000, this has been a brutal experience. My moving coordinator has been very unhelpful, and it's impossible to reach anyone else at the company. It will be more than a month now without my stuff.

UPDATE: My furniture arrived on day 28 of the quote 8 - 26. Furniture damages and they lost the main part to my bedframe, the base to my TV, legs to my TV stand, and legs to my coffee table. I am at the point where I’ll be filing with the Better Business Bureau. I waited 28 days and they lost all major components to my largest and most expensive furniture.

We spoke with someone today who said they would get back to us and we’ve still not heard a single word.

Hi Sean. We really wish the experience had been 5-star worthy too, and we apologize for dropping the ball here.

You should have heard from us before 9:00 on moving day, not had to call us yourself. A delivery that runs past the window we gave you is on us, and so is going more than a month without your belongings. Missing parts from your bed frame, TV, TV stand and coffee table make all of that worse, because the furniture can't be used until they're found.

We're sorry that getting answers from us has been this hard, and that the callback you were promised hasn't come yet. We've raised your file internally so the follow-up happens. Please stay in touch with your relocation coordinator in the meantime, and we'll keep working with you until this is resolved.

I was impressed with Relocation Coordinator Mikayeel’s prompt response to all my questions and that my quote was equal to the final cost.
The hardworking Burly crew, Conor (Phoenix) Coates and Noah Brown, were really pleasant and helpful. All in all, the team made what could have been a difficult move across provinces and ferry very easy for me. Thanks Burly Boyz!

Risky Choice

Do not use this company. They overcharge for slow, sloppy work, and refuse to take accountability for property damage.

I paid an hourly rate specifically to have my TVs and art packed securely in specialized boxes, as advertised on their social media. Instead, they wrapped the TVs in a single layer of bubble wrap, left the expensive boxes unused in my garage, and threw bare glass, art, and collectibles unprotected into boxes together.

Their policy states two people must carry furniture, but they frequently had one person dragging wood furniture across bare pavement, completely ruining it.

When I escalated the damage to management, the Customer Experience Manager spent an hour arguing with me. He admitted their laborers are inconsistent and claimed they don't have the budget to train them properly. He even refused to look at the photos of the damage, stating they weren't relevant, and reminded me that their negligence isn't covered unless you pay premium insurance rates.

This move took 3 people 8.5 hours for a job that a different crew did in 6 hours previously, costing me significantly more for terrible quality.

The company has built an automated system specifically to shield management from accountability. Save your money and your furniture—go elsewhere.

Michael,

Thank you for the feedback, and we are sorry. The move fell short of what you paid for, and the conversation afterward did not put it right.

A $400 refund was issued on your file. That does not undo the damage or the hours this cost you, and we are not going to pretend otherwise.

Your comments about crew consistency and about how the escalation was handled have gone to our leadership team.

We are sorry we got this wrong.

Why I have trusted with the Burley Boyz for all moving needs.

My most recent move was the third time I have hired Burly Boyz and trusted my possessions in their care. Nothing was left to chance from the booking process, getting a quote to providing an inventory list with which the Burley Boyz are extremely flexible. Submitting a video walk thru was to show the apartment layout, the loading dock and how to access elevators was a nice touch. I would highly recommend you include the Burley Boyz in your list when shopping for movers locally or long distance.

Highly recommend. Totally amazing move process

From the first contact with the burly boys we got the impression that they really cared about our possessions and what we were looking for in our move. Dealing with Mikayeel who was our coordinator every thing was easy to set up and Mikayeel was so helpful and full of great advise. Move day and the guys who actually did the move Judson, Mike, Zeph and Kay were totally amazing, they took great care with our furniture and our home. Nothing was too much trouble for them. Even at our new home they never moaned about taking our heaving furniture to the rooms that we wanted than to be in. Even our exercise equipment was no problem for them even when we asked for the exercise equipment into the basement which is not a walkout.
Great guys to work with. We highly recommend Burly boys and the crew that were assigned to our move. Five stars to them all .

Karl, thank you so much for this. It means a lot to hear that the care came through from the very first conversation all the way to the last piece of furniture in place.

Mikayeel will be thrilled to read this. Getting the setup right and giving good advice up front is exactly what they aim for, and it clearly paid off on move day.

And Judson, Mike, Zeph and Kay deserve every bit of the credit you gave them. Protecting your furniture and your home, placing everything where you actually wanted it, and getting the exercise equipment down into a non walkout basement without a word of complaint is the standard we hope for on every job. We will be passing your words along to all four of them.

Thanks again for the five stars and the recommendation. If you ever need us again, we would be glad to help!
