Last 6 months: 18 reviews, 0 negative. ## The honest read ABetterChoice Moving carries a 4.9-star Google rating from 53 ratings. Its website lists residential, long-distance and commercial moving, furniture delivery, truck rental, and junk removal and cleanout services, with a stated service area running from Stamford and Greenwich to Danbury and Wallingford. A recent customer hired them for a small job, moving a dresser from a moving van to a bedroom, and said it was wrapped in blankets and clear plastic wrap before going in on a hand truck. A customer who moved across the state said Darrell and G handled more belongings than expected and put in long hours on the Friday before Memorial Day weekend. When one customer's planned movers bailed at the last minute, this company moved their things at the last second. A recent customer said the movers figured out how to disassemble a long one-piece sofa and reassemble it. The owner of an interior design business in CT wrote that they have hired the company to move clients from CT to the Carolinas and Florida. A 2024 customer said the company moved a large house from CT to FL, wrapping the furniture the day before the move, loading the truck the next day and unloading it in FL three days later. That 2024 customer said Darrell, whom they called the CEO, coordinated the process and did the actual move as well. A 2025 customer said the company moved over 15 desks, chairs and several conference tables into a new office space and completed the job on time. A 2026 customer described a quote of 1,250, then 3,200, and a final bill of over 6,200. That 2026 customer said they came late all three days without updates, and that a dispatcher kept calling for payment and threatened to put the junk back and charge high fees. **Strengths:** - A wrapped dresser — a recent customer said it went in blankets and plastic wrap - A last-minute move — a recent customer said they stepped in after others bailed - A CT-to-Florida move — a 2024 customer met the truck in FL three days later - A sofa takedown — a recent customer said they disassembled and reassembled it **Concerns:** - A rising bill — a 2026 customer said a 1,250 quote ended above 6,200 - Payment calls — a 2026 customer said a dispatcher kept calling for payment ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - 4.9 stars on Google from 53 ratings _(confidence: high)_ - [Google](https://www.google.com/maps/search/?api=1&query=ABetterChoice%20Moving&query_place_id=ChIJSSW2ir1V3YkRE-16HCSvHto) — “Google: 4.9★ from 53 ratings” - Its website lists residential, long-distance and commercial moving, furniture delivery, truck rental and junk removal services _(confidence: high)_ - [Official Website](https://abetterchoicemovingservices.com) — “About (self-reported, verbatim): Services Moving Services Long Distance Moving Commercial Moving Furniture Delivery General Moving Services …” - Its website names a service area including Stamford, Greenwich, Danbury and Wallingford _(confidence: high)_ - [Official Website](https://abetterchoicemovingservices.com) — “Stated service area (self-reported): Stamford, Bridgeport, Norwalk, Darien, Wilton, Brookfield, New Milford, Danbury, Fairfield, Ridgefield,…” - A recent customer said a dresser was wrapped in blankets and clear plastic wrap before it was moved in _(confidence: high)_ - [Google Reviews](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m8!14m7!1m6!2m5!1sCi9DQUlRQUNvZENodHljRjlvT25oR1VDMXlURUY0VmtkUlMyUnpkblZOYUVsRWNrRRAB!2m1!1s0x0:0xda1eaf241c7aed13!3m1!1s2@1:CAIQACodChtycF9oOnhGUC1yTEF4VkdRS2RzdnVNaElEckE%7C%7C?hl=en-US) — “5★ I had a very small job for them—just to move a dresser from a moving van to a bedroom.
