Call today to have Cummings Moving & Storage LLC schedule an appointment, assess the items to be moved and provide you with an accurate quote. Our moving specialist will then give you an accurate approximation of the cost of your move and will determine the size of crew needed to efficiently handle the job.
Cummings Moving Inc. can move plants. We just ask that you refrain from watering them a few days before the move to prevent any damage happening to your other items being moved and any water dripping onto the floor of the truck, creating a slippery and potentially hazardous surface. Cummings Moving Inc. suggests that for any water and gas lines, contact your local utility companies for proper disconnection procedures.
Great couple guys helped us out on short notice. I read the other reviews here and was wary at first, but the two gentlemen that I worked with were awesome! They were hard working, took care of our things, were on time, and very pleasant guys to spend the day with.

Critical: Quality, Value The movers don't take direction well you have to be standing next to them to make sure they do it right or they will just put your things anywhere.

Critical: Professionalism, Quality I wish I could give a -5. This is the worst I have dealt with. The crew whined constantly abt wanting help with the move. ALL day long I heard bang rattling and boom, couldn't stop dropping furniture. Broke my tv & didn't me. Mr AL is loud argumentative and curse

I wish I could this poor excuse for a company 0/5, the owner, Cummings has a HORRIBLE attitude, doesn't communicate and throws tantrums to accompany his lack of understanding of how to run a PROPER business. We were quoted one price one day and another the next day. After asking how does he accept payment, he responded "Zelle" is fine, but doesn't understand the concept of the transaction or how Zelle even works.

He continued to harass me about his money that I had already provided to him WITH proof of the receipt. He was still belittling and demeaning towards me when I spoke with him. Cummings said himself he would rather do business with men instead of women. I wouldn't get this pitiful company to move an ant pile, 0/10 would NOT recommend. This was an out of state move and the fact that everything was already stressful enough, this took the cake.

The movers: Robert Lee, Ricky and Donte were all very sweet and patient, and treated us very well. I feel sorry that they have to endure the likes of their employer. They were professional and handled all of our belongings with care.

Critical: Professionalism, Quality, Value Horrible and very unprofessional behavior. The men sent to move me were great! Everything in my apartment was moved but when it came to my dresser entertainment center and chest, these items were too heavy and could not be moved. The owner was call about these items but hung up in my face. I would never recommend this company to anyone.

Critical: Professionalism, Quality, Value Don't ever use this company. Owner rude. Changed prices every time you talk to him. Can't wait to call the business bureau! Overpriced and unprofessional. I will be passing this along to the whole Louisiana and Texas. Give you a price and haven't even done the job. Fake, foney, and fraud! Pass on world! Service: Local moving

Critical: Professionalism, Quality, Value Would NEVER recommend. Lied about not having a minimum time frame and they never offered to put up any beds. I've had moving companies before and they all set up whatever you need without asking. Service: In-state moving

OK. Responded to my urgent request for next day move of 1 item. Guys were careful but did small damage to sheetrock due to right quarters and very bulky item.

Just called in to get some information about moving expensive. The gentleman that answered the phone was very rude, interrupting me not letting me get a word in. I'm trying to explain to him about the boxes and the furniture I have. Gentleman made accusation about not trying to short change me. explained to him there no need to be disrespectful and rude he hung on me. VERY RUDE and DISRESPECTFUL!

I called them and told them I was looking for an estimate on moving one bedroom worth of stuff. They told me it's $80 an hour so probably cost around $160 (since the drive to the new place is about 30 minutes). I agreed to that and set up an appointment. They arrived with 4 people (unnecessary for moving 1 bedroom worth of stuff) 30 minutes late to the scheduled time.

I signed the paper without reading it (big mistake) and after signing it I noticed at the bottom in small print it said 3.5 hour minimum charge. So I had to pay $310 for them to move a bed, desk parts and some boxes for 20 minutes worth of labor and 30 minutes worth of driving. Tldr; They charge $80 and hour and minimum 3.5 hour charge. $300+ with tax MINMUM charge for any type of move. Lesson learned on my end.

Horrific experience, I can't believe the owner is dishonest. I called the owner to set an appointment a week before my move was expected to happen. I informed the owner that I would be relocating from my home to the amazing storage in Shreveport. This was stated in the initial conversation. The mover where unorganized and not able to proper stack my personal items.

When we ready to transport my personal item I informed the worker (movers) on the location they were not informed before hand by the own. Once we arrive I was informed that their trailer wasn't able to fit inside the storage area, because they use the wrong type of uhaul. Which cause the worker and myself to triple work by stacking my personal items on the ground then walk the boxes inside which took additional hours.

They were not reasonable they attempted to charge me 754.37 which was ridiculous for an enter city transition. Which the move was only a 6.7 mile distance from my home. I spoke with the owner twice during the moving ordeal once because he didn't inform the movers that we were going to storage located at the Amazing Storage, secondly was for the price negotiation.

Which the owner wasn't reasonable at all. My move total was unbelievable on top of all that they were very rough housing my personal items my glass was broken, my tv stand was damaged with Scratches and dents. They mishandled my washer and dryer. To end this review I was very unsatisfied but I paid the bill, all in all I will never use this company any future endeavors. Seddricka

Uncommunicative, unapologetic, rude, Mr. Cummings have an attitude, movers were not careful with belongings, was not honest to original quote Cons: Mr. Cummings arrive extremely early in his own black truck and just parked on the street in front of the house. He did NOT come and knock on the door and let us know the moving truck is coming. With the recent crimes in the neighborhood and being female I did not feel safe.

None of the workers introduced themselves including Mr. Cummings. Later found out from the workers that that was the boss. Mr. Cummings then complained and gave me an attitude that there is too much stuff. And exaggerated that I have over a 100 boxes when I did not. I did not have a couch. And I have most of my furnitures static and bubble wrap for the move so they didn't have to do it.

I also move as much stuff in the living room and basement with a ground level entryway to make the move easier for them. I also offered bottle waters and Gatorade as it is summer. Mr. Cummings got fed up for some reason. He was also yelling at someone on the phone. They left without telling me and with a few shelves and boxes left. Luckily we were able to stack it all in my small SUV but I can't see through my back window not my backseat windows.

I have to called Mr. Cummings to confirmed they have left Shreveport and are on their way to Lafayette. So we finished cleaning the house an hour after the movers left and got to Lafayette 3 hours later. The movers were not here. We finished unloading my car. The movers were still not here. We finished eating lunch at a nearby fast food restaurant.

The movers were still not here. I have to called Mr. Cummings to ask what is taking so long. They have truck issues on the way to Lafayette that took them an extra 5 hours of the day. If they have managed expectations and was forthcoming I would not have gave them such a bad review. I understand automobile issues happen. Just call and let me know so I know when to expect the movers to arrive. Mr. Cummings with all of his years of experience was not able to anticipate the amount of stuffs I have.

He said I lied to him. He did not ask the right questions. He ask how many bedroom. And I said 1. But I also have a living room and a kitchen and I thought that it was common knowledge that I will have that as every house have a kitchen and a living room. I also have a washer and dryer in the basement with more stuff. He could have overcompensated.

He quoted me $800-900 when I first called. He then called the day before and increased it to $1100. At the time of payment it was $1438. And he said I should be happy that it's similar to other quotes I got. He was unapologetic. They also were not careful with my dining table and left big scratch marks. And they somehow cut the tubing of my bike tire air pump.

And the wheels on my coffee table are all not usable. Pros: The movers were very fast and quiet with loading and unloading. It only took them an hour and a half for a living room, a bedroom, and a basement with washer and dryer. But I was charged for 4 hours total.

I have visited this merchant a number of times n the past DECADE for safety inspections with no issues! The owner is a senior citizen and like me has some aches and pains that render his socialization skills somewhat in remiss but my guess is he's just a good older person trying to make a living! In my 83 years I as a Korean navy veteran (you can thank me for my service) I have found out that if you stay calm around anguished folks they too will calm down and not consider YOU a non-threat!

Made arrangements with this company about 8 days or so in advance as I was comparing prices with other companies. Decided this one was the better deal because I was given a flat rate and was told the move would take 3-4 hours max. Much to my chagrin the movers arrived an hour early (no big deal) with a contract that stated a total different rate and a surcharge that was not articulated during my initial call.

The movers were good but took 5 hours and I ended up paying a lot more than stated. I think the owner knows you're pretty much in a bind because you can't just arrange for a different mover the same day. Definitely won't recommend or use them for services any longer and I have a few friends Iooking to move soon. Just bad business.

They stole a $25 gift card from me. I paid them in CASH even after I found out they stole my gift card. I will NEVER recommend these people ever!

If i can submit zero stars i would! the owner doesn't deserve the title of a business man, his a con-artist at its finest! he does not give you accurate pricing for his services and often bamboozles clients when it's time to pay by trumping up travel costs and other hidden expenses. what is most unfair is that the movers have to deal with the clients anger and utter shock because the owner doesn't explain the hidden charges beforehand. this is not the company to expect trustworthy service. oh! not only that but he is very disrespectful towards customers. he will talk dirty to your grandmother. run!

This company is absolutely horrible, unreliable and very unprofessional. I scheduled a moving date for March letting them know that the day may change. I received an email back from them confirming same and to contact them if anything changes. Sure enough, the moving date changed, I called and changed the date to 2 weeks earlier and was told the movers would be at my house that morning at 8:00 a.m. Well, 8:30 that morning.no show, no call, and after calling both the business and cell numbers listed online, no answer at all. 8:45 still no show, no call and still no answer on the phone.

At this time I located a different moving company to help me and was awaiting a return phone call. I received a text for the cell phone number saying "I'm on my way." Still wouldn't answer the phone and it's 45 minutes AFTER the time they were supposed to show up. At 9:00 I got a call from the other moving company (who is Two Guys Moving by the way, doesn't work on Sundays but pulled through for myself when I was in a bind) stating they could have 3 guys to my home in less than an hour.

So of course, I tried call Cummings again to tell them not to worry about it, but instead no answer on the cell phone and just a text back saying "I'm on my way." I literally had to fire this company OVER TEXT MESSAGE! Completely unreliable and I will never be using these guys again.

Cummings Moving company should not be in business serving the public. I scheduled my move 3 weeks in advance, called several times to make sure everything was in order. The 2nd time I called the owner told me that he forgot to put my information in so I had to give him all of the information again. I then asked if he needed to come and look at the furniture that needed to be moved and he said no.

So I just told him everything that needed to be moved and the date I needed to move and he said he had it and everything would be ok. I still called several times after this just to make sure though. On the day of my move the 1st problem was when 1 of the movers saw my king sized bed and called the owner to tell him he may need 3 movers instead of 2.

The owner then asked to speak with me and told me he wouldn't be able to do the move since the bed was so big. I asked if he could just charge me more and do the move and he said yes. So next the movers were getting a kitchen table out and couldn't get it through the door and refused to take off the legs (which they only needed a screw driver to do).

So when I called the owner to complain about them refusing to take off the legs, the owner began yelling stating, "I don't have time to argue with you about this so I'm just going to cancel the move". So this meant I had to find someone else to move my furniture which I had to have out no later than the following day. The good news is, I was able to find someone else who charged me a whole $800 less than what was quoted by Cummings. To God be the glory! Oh and a neighbor did get a screwdriver and took the legs off the table and put them back on with no problem at all.

These guys will try to intimidate you and will try to RIP YOU OFF. Do not use this Company. This is the worst moving company. They gave me a maximum quote for the move. The quote was for 3 men and The owner said that the move would take a maximum of 6 hours. The morning of the move I called them at 7:45 Am to verify them to verify that they had the correct address.

They were supposed to arrive @ 8 AM. They didn't arrive until 8:45. They came and only had 2 men and said that one of their guys didn't show up so the move would take longer than the 6 hours. I told them that I wasn't paying more than the original quote. I told them to leave. They left and pulled away in the moving truck. I went to the back of the house and a few minutes later, I heard something in the house.

These guys actually came back after they had been fired and they had 3 extra guys with them. They came back into the house without permission. There were 5 dirty looking guys in the house without permission, and I had to tell them to leave again. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. they will try to RIP you off. I ended up getting the move done for less than their original quote.
