## The honest read

Collegian Movers Inc is a Milford-based moving company. A recent Angi customer needed an urgent piano move and said "two guys came with all the right equipment" the same day, wrapped it and moved it upstairs without any damage to the walls or floors.

On Google it holds 4.8 stars from 223 ratings, and on Angi 4.4 stars from 50; its BBB grade is A+. The company says it has been in business 37 years.

A recent customer who booked the packing service said the team packed a whole 2-bedroom in 4 hours and labeled everything without breaking a dish. One customer who already had a rental truck said two guys arrived within 2 hours to load it and secured everything with straps. A recent Google reviewer moving a college student from a storage unit into off-campus housing named Erin for answering questions and Nick and Mike for showing up to move everything. A customer moving from Brooklyn to Stamford said the online quote matched what they paid, with no surprise fees.

A 2026 customer described a large load that ran to gym equipment, a basketball hoop and a swing set with two slides, and said the 5 workers disassembled items and reassembled them at the new location with not one item broken. A 2025 customer described a moving day from 9am to 8pm and said that when a piece of furniture did not fit through a doorway, it was taken apart, brought in and reassembled. A 2025 Google reviewer said Dwight and his crew did a same-day move out and move in at East Haven in over 90-degree heat. A 2024 customer said Aaron and Dwight got an interstate CT to MA move done in "7ish hours".

A 2025 Google reviewer said the company broke a $2,500 TV and later said it was not covered without TV-specific insurance, and that $300 of pots and pans went missing. A 2022 customer described an in-town move where the truck was told to make two trips but was filled only once over the whole day, items were left behind and door jams were damaged; the 2022 customer said the team gave a slight discount.

**Strengths:**
- Same-day piano move — a recent customer said walls and floors were undamaged
- 2-bedroom packed — a recent customer said it took 4 hours
- Quote matched price — a recent customer said there were no surprise fees
- Large load handled — a 2026 customer said not one item was broken

**Concerns:**
- A broken TV — a 2025 customer said the damage was not covered
- Items left behind — a 2022 customer said the truck was filled once
