Comment : Using Smith Dray Line Movers is and was a nightmare unlike any other! Smith Dray Lines damaged, stole, replaced high value items for lesser value items and sold our originals all over the Internet. They also forged my signature plus many many other horrible things. They have committed fraud and are scammers. Please save yourself the heartbreak and stress and move your self. This company can not be trusted as they advertise.

Comment : After unloading, I had questions about reassembly and where certain boxes were placed. Their follow-up was fast and genuinely helpful, which made the experience feel complete. On moving day, handling had been careful and communication clear. Delivery was organized, essentials were placed first, and nothing was damaged. The extra responsiveness afterward showed real customer care and professionalism throughout.

Comment : Weekend scheduling was important for my family, and they made it work. They confirmed early, arrived on time, and kept progress steady without rushing. The workspace stayed tidy, and heavy items were carried safely. Delivery wrapped up ahead of schedule, and placement was precise. Nothing was damaged, and the closeout was quick. The day felt reliable, calm, and worth recommending.

Comment : I changed my mind on furniture placement several times, and they stayed patient. The crew adjusted angles, shifted pieces carefully, and asked clarifying questions instead of guessing. Their calm approach kept the move feeling controlled. Delivery remained organized, and they finished with a thorough walkthrough. Everything arrived safely, and I felt genuinely supported rather than rushed at any point in the day.

Posted at October 23rd, 2014 22::10Subject :Will go for it again n again
Comment : I never expected that my moving would be so smooth and hassle free. Smith Dray helped me well. I had to move from Columbia on a short notice and I was worried about the moving. One of my neighbors told me that she had a good experience with these guys, so I decided to go for them too. She was right, these guys were very efficient and honest. I really had no trouble while moving and these guys managed it very professionally. I didn’t have much trouble with their price too. The crew was very thoughtful and patient with me. Those guys were very humorous too. They managed to remain professional. I’m pretty sure that these were guys with experience. I would love to choose these guys again if I am ever in need of movers. Great job guys! Continue the good work!

Comment : Moving into a high-rise usually brings delays, but this went smoothly. They coordinated building rules, protected elevator walls, and kept lobby traffic respectful. The pace stayed efficient without rushing, and communication remained clear. Delivery happened within the expected window, and a final walkthrough ensured nothing was overlooked. Everything arrived intact, and the day felt surprisingly easy to manage.

Comment : Moving with kids can be chaotic, but the crew made it easier. They kept a safe path clear, stacked boxes away from play areas, and worked patiently. They asked before moving anything from the children’s room and placed essentials first at the new place. The day felt calmer than expected, and everything arrived safely. Their considerate approach truly stood out for our family.

The crew maintained a safe pathway and worked steadily. At delivery, essentials were placed first so I could settle quickly.

Comment : They moved a heavy safe with impressive precision. The crew assessed angles, used proper equipment, and protected corners before moving an inch. Communication was clear before each lift, and they never forced anything. Delivery placement was exact, and surrounding walls stayed unmarked. Not a scratch appeared, and their technique and coordination gave me full confidence throughout the process.

Posted at July 9th, 2022 07::07Subject :Great moving company! Everything has been smooth, with no drama. Friendly people.
Comment : The folks in the Greenville office were a pleasure to deal with, and I saved a lot of money being able to get free boxes from their warehouse. All appointments were kept on time, including moving day. Everyone, including the movers and craters, was polite at all times and did what we asked them to do. Most of the move went well, but 6 pieces of furniture were damaged. Nearly all were repaired (and repaired beautifully!), but one was not (an antique chair), and it should have been. The man in charge did not mark it on the forms, though he said he did. When it came time to unpack at our destination, only 2 men were on the truck, so it took them forever and they were understandably exhausted, especially since the weather during the drive was horrendous. If they had more men with them, they would not have just shoved the last few pieces in the garage, which is where some of the damage occurred. I would use them again, but I would be more careful to see that damages were recorded and that they were going to have enough movers at the destination.

Comment : What stood out was how tidy the worksite stayed. Packing materials were contained, pathways were kept open, and doors were handled carefully. Furniture was wrapped neatly and carried with control. Delivery was organized, and they removed debris before leaving so I could start unpacking. Everything arrived in great condition, and the day felt respectful, clean, and professionally managed end to end.

Comment : My building elevator stopped working mid-move, and I expected delays. Instead, they adjusted quickly, protected stair rails, and kept traffic safe. The pace stayed steady, and heavy items were carried with controlled technique. Delivery finished the same day, and they confirmed each room placement before leaving. Their patience and problem solving turned a potential mess into a smooth experience.

Comment : Their labeling system made unpacking far easier. Boxes were marked by room and priority, and the loading order matched that structure. At delivery, essentials were placed first, then furniture, then everything else. They confirmed directions before moving on, preventing mistakes. Nothing went missing, setup felt organized immediately, and the whole move felt structured, calm, and thoughtfully executed throughout.

The crew coordinated around staff and kept walkways clear. Delivery was efficient, desks were placed as planned, and we were operational quickly afterward. The move felt business-ready, careful, and impressively smooth throughout.

Comment : Rain hit during loading, but they were prepared with tarps, extra wrap, and a staging plan. Boxes stayed sealed, wet areas were wiped quickly, and the truck was closed efficiently. The crew kept a steady pace without shortcuts. Delivery used the same precautions, and nothing arrived damp. The day felt prepared, upbeat, and professionally handled despite the weather.
