## The honest read

2 Young Studs Moving carries a 4.6-star average across 791 Google ratings, and the recent jobs range from a single heavy vanity to a two-stage move that ended in Brooklyn.

One recent customer said the company first moved them within New Haven, navigating their four flights of narrow and twisty stairs, and two months later moved them to Brooklyn. When a Home Depot delivery left a 250 lb vanity a recent customer needed brought upstairs, they called Chris and two guys were available the same day to help move it, at a price the customer called reasonable compared with other quotes. A recent customer who booked Chris and his team for a 5-hour, out-of-state move said not a single item was damaged, and that the team assembled the bed and placed everything in the preferred rooms. A recent customer said the company got them on the schedule on short notice and came out on a Sunday morning. On r/newhaven, a recent Reddit commenter said they moved about 6 miles within New Haven and the company was quick and relatively cheap. A 2026 customer wrote that they had used 2 Young Studs for six moves over the previous 20 years.

A 2025 customer said Chris (the owner) agreed to send three movers, only two showed up, and when the customer asked for a discount on the remaining payment, Chris became very upset and hung up. A 2025 customer said they paid in full for a move, then on the morning of the move got a call from an employee saying he was not showing up, and received no service. A 2024 customer said the movers came 4.5 hours after the reservation and did not take everything in the second round of the move. A 2022 customer said that by 2pm, six hours after the scheduled start, they learned the movers would not be coming at all. A 2022 r/newhaven commenter warned against using the company and called the owner a crook.

**Strengths:**
- Same-day help — two movers came the same day for a 250 lb vanity
- A careful long move — nothing damaged on a 5-hour out-of-state move
- A short-notice Sunday move — a recent customer was scheduled quickly

**Concerns:**
- A no-show move — a 2025 customer paid in full and got no service
- Owner phone conduct — a 2025 customer said Chris became upset and hung up
- A partial move — a 2024 customer said not everything was taken
- A missed moving day — a 2022 customer said the movers never came
