Each year, we get to help thousands of our friends and neighbors with the relocation into their new homes. It’s a responsibility from which we take a lot of joy: we love being Iowa’s most trusted moving day partner.
Blue Cow Moving reviews give you a real look at what customers experience when they trust us with their move. Whether it's an apartment in Des Moines or a house in Ankeny, families across Iowa rely on our crew to handle life’s big transitions with care.
Some customers choose full-service packing. Others need just a couple of movers and a truck. Either way, the reviews speak volumes—and consistently highlight our team's professionalism, punctuality, and attention to detail.
What Customers Say About Our Team
We believe every move deserves our full focus. That’s why our crew shows up on time, ready to get the job done. From one-bedroom apartments to large homes, we treat each move with the same level of care and respect.
Many Blue Cow Moving reviews mention our friendly, respectful team. Customers often describe their experience as smooth and stress-free. That consistency is no accident—it’s built into how we train and operate.
Clear Communication Every Step of the Way
Customers often mention how easy we are to reach. We confirm every appointment, send reminders, and stay in touch throughout the process. Even with last-minute bookings, we do everything we can to keep things moving without surprises.
Trained In-House, Never Subcontracted
Our movers are trained by us—and only us. We never subcontract. That means you’ll see familiar faces and receive consistent service. Many reviews even mention specific team members by name, which says a lot about the personal care we provide.
Locally Owned and Iowa Proud
Blue Cow is proudly local. Our team lives in the same Iowa neighborhoods we serve, including Ankeny, Waukee, and Urbandale. That local connection makes us more accountable—and more motivated to deliver great results.
Every piece of honest feedback helps us improve. We read every review carefully and use them to guide team training and service updates.
The crew was so great. They came in and did a quick run through of the house and immediately got started. Very efficient. All 3 were very polite the entire time.
They did a great job moving our boxes into storage. They made sure that they had moved all the boxes that I wanted to move. They were very friendly too. I will hire them again!
Wow. These guys are amazing. The crew works so hard. Would stop any second to help. Truly will never not use a different company. I highly recommend them.
Made our move today and Blue Cow moving made it so easy! They were very detail-oriented, very communicative, they made it very easy! We had a bad experience with another moving company so we were nervous. They were fast and careful! Making sure to protect our items and our floor! Would highly recommend and would 100% use again in the future!
Hardworking, thoughtful and smart! We weren’t downsizing and moved in from out of town. We needed two trucks to move. We had a wonderful experience with the Blue Cow crew. I will recommend your company to anyone I know who needs professional help at the top level.
I was nervous about hiring anyone to help move our personal belongings. After my experience I will recommend BlueCow and their team every time! Everyone of your crew was professional and knew exactly what they were doing. I am so happy we hired BlueCow and will be forever greatful for them! Save my family and me so much time and our backs! Thank you!
Chase and Noah K were amazing. They showed up on time. They actively listened in order to meet my needs for the move, packed up and we were on the road. We were all unpacked before I knew it. They were very nice to work with and they handled my things with care and were very timely.
I was very impressed with the professionalism of our moving crew today, especially in the rain! Very pleasant and attentive to our needs!We would recommend Blue Cow to anyone moving!
First time using Blue Cow Moving & Storage to move my mom from a nursing home to a different nursing home. Was a little hard connecting with a live person to get things set up, but it was easy leaving messages with the automated service. The team arrived on time and completed the job in just over two hours. Paul and Misha were friendly, helpful and very skilled at moving things. Price was a little higher than other companies, but worth it because they took the time to do it right.
I have nothing but great things to say about my experience with Blue Cow. From my first call getting info and pricing Charlie was able to answer all questions immediately and provide details I needed. On my load day Jay, as a crew lead, was an absolute stud and is a true professional in all aspects- plus he can pack a truck like none other. His crew members Nathan and Hassan were just as awesome doing their part of the job. On unload day Jay was once again crew lead and outperformed any of my expectations. His crew members Dylan and Zeke also crushed. These 3 guys also assisted me in putting together an outdoor shed after unloading. Everyone was very hardworking, polite, and fun to be around in what can be a stressful experience. My move also consisted of a 2.5 hour one way trip. No complaints from the movers, they showed up energetic and smiling ready to accomplish the job. Thank you everyone for an amazing moving experience, I truly couldn’t ask for better service.
Awesome movers! Very professional and polite. They got the job done quickly/efficiently. Everything was safely wrapped and carefully transported. These movers are a great value and no hidden fees. Thank you for making our move less stressful! Can’t say enough good things!!!!
Great!Blue Cow communicated frequently and was very helpful. Prices were great. The final bill was less than the estimate. The two men who did the actual packing were very efficient and polite.
Caleb and David were fantastic they made sure that all my furniture were wrapped and handled with good care. Both were friendly ,professional and worked hard. This is my first time with Blue Cow and I would recommend them to anyone who are in the process of moving. Thank you again Caleb and David with (Blue Cow)
Josiah and Cade were professional and continuously asked questions. Moving can be stressful and they kept checking in making sure they got everything. They wrapped the furniture and it arrived undamaged. It was more than worth the investment. Next time what I would do differently, is rent their shipping containers. I bought my own because I personally wanted some, but don't need as many as I purchased. Would be worth having them drop off the containers and taking them away when done. Logan was very thorough while booking the move, checking in before moving day, and calling the day of moving to check on satisfaction. Great experience working with Blue Cow.....and I love cows....never saw a blue one though.
Daniel and Mike was wonderful. They worked very hard and was so careful with all the furniture. Glad they will be returning to move us back in. Good job guys!!
This company and their employees are amazing! Fast and friendly and very courteous, they will go above and beyond for you. I have used them twice and would highly recommend them.
Blue Cow was terrific to work with when planning my move! They're flexible when unexpected things happen, and made it a stress free experience. The movers were friendly and respectful. I 100% recommend them, and I'd happily use their services again if needed.
