Not a customer but a concerned person pulling into a customer of my own I watch one of the employees just throwing boxes on the truck I ask the owner if that is how he trained his employees he said no but it doesn't matter it's just paper. Well any one going past wouldn't know this

We just worked with Jo Mama's on a cross-country move to South Carolina and we were extremely impressed with their operation from start to finish. Michael and Shaun were very cool and professional people and we would recommend them anyone looking for movers in the Telluride area.

I recently hired Jo Mamas Moving to move a few pieces of furniture for me and once again they impressed me. I have hired them often over the years for many furniture moves, large and small. No matter the size, they tackle each one with the same professionalism, enthusiasm and brawn. Their price is very competitive and they have always taken impeccable care of my furniture. I highly recommend them.

Jo Mama's helped me move recently within the Telluride area, and I was once again surprised and pleased at how professional these guys really are. My furniture was not only blanket-wrapped, but "shrink-wrapped" first to protect it. The guys were fast, friendly, careful, and remarkably efficient, and the price was very reasonable. Highly recommended. David Highland Telluride, Colorado

We contacted Jo Mama Movers in Telluride and received a quote over the phone. However, after they completed the furniture moving they had added several additional fees to the invoice. When I sent a message to question Michael (owner) about the fees and the fact they were never disclosed, I promptly received the following message back from him. " Pay the invoice and then don't call us again, " followed by a cc to his attorney.
Over the years we had heard some negative comments about this company however we had only used other major moving companies to this point. This was a small job and we thought it would make more sense to use a local company. After this experience I would not recommend them for any job large or small. I would bring someone from out of the area as I had before because I refuse to do business with a dishonest company. Michael apparently does'ntt have the courtesy to call so he puts his accountant up to clean up his mess.
