How to File a Complaint Against Becker Movers

When you contact Becker Movers for moving services, you expect your items to be kept safe through the moving period, and the charges remain as agreed. But, how do you file a complaint against Becker Movers in the event that they mishandle or lose your items, overcharge you, or abuse you in any way?

You can file your Becker Movers complaints to the state or federal government, depending on whether you move within the state or another state. For example, intrastate moving complaints are filed with the New York State Department of Transportation, while interstate moving complaints are filed with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration.

Filing such complaints is a tedious task. DoNotPay's Moving Issues product can help you identify the type of claim you need to make, send a letter to the moving company demanding compensation or a refund, and bring a claim against the company in Small Claims Court if the company won't initially pay you back.

When Should I File a Complaint Against Becker Movers?

Different things can go wrong when the moving company is packing, transporting, or unpacking your items. If for any reason you feel unsatisfied with the services they offer you, it's okay to file a complaint and get some compensation.

Does Becker Movers Have a History of Customer Complaints?

Yes. There are several complaints on different rating platforms like Angi and Movers, where the company has received several 1-star and 2-star ratings from former customers.

One of the reviewers on the Complaints Board left the following review.

"Movers damaged a large china Hutch, hardwood floor, dropped a 35" television and broke a 20x30 picture. They hid the picture afterward and replaced the TV with two massive holes back in the entertainment center, hoping we wouldn't notice. They have repaired the hutch and floor but sent a check for 31.50 to cover the other two items."
