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 two young men who did my mom's move were wonderful! They were efficient, courteous, careful, and explained anything we had questions about. Very professional and the quote we got was almost to the dollar of what it cost!!!
Noah and his team were great to work with for our move! They were professional, respectful, and didn't slow down which helped our move be efficient. I've worked with other moving companies and felt most at ease with this group. I trusted they heard what we needed and they took care of all items they moved.
Blue Cow is full of professional bovines!Hired them to meet me in another town, bring a bed to my house, set it up. Also move a bed from one bedroom to the other. The workers were incredibly professional very good at what they do! They were courteous, fun, and did their work efficiently!
Crew was fantastic and efficient with their time. They took extra care of our things and made sure everything was delivered to the correct room before leaving. Won't be moving for a long time (hopefully) but will be recommending them to everyone I know when services are needed.
Here’s a polished 5-star review you could post:⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Blue Cow Moving did an amazing job with my move! The entire team was thoughtful, kind, respectful, and incredibly professional from start to finish. They took great care with my belongings and placed everything exactly where I asked, which made unpacking so much easier.Moving can be stressful, but they made the process smooth and efficient. The crew was friendly, worked hard, communicated well, and treated both me and my belongings with respect throughout the day.I couldn’t have asked for a better moving experience and would absolutely recommend Blue Cow Moving to anyone looking for reliable, professional movers. Thank you for making my move such a positive experience! 😊
Blue Cow was recommended by several friends who had hired them for their moves. Jay and Nate used my name and wanted to be clear about what was moving and later about if they had completed all my wishes. They were very polite to everyone along the way and my furniture items were well cared for. They helped make this experience to be a positive one and I would use them again.
My movers did a fantastic job. They moved fast and made sure everything was were I wanted it. I highly recommend them. If I ever move again I will definitely use them.
I honestly can't say enough great things about the guys at Blue Cow!The entire process was very stress-free. They create a home inventory by having you upload a video walkthrough of the house, which is SO much easier than having to provide an itemized list of everything you own!I hired Blue Cow to help on two separate days; first, an initial packing and clean out of my mom's house to get it ready to be shown, and then to move her into her new place.Both crews were absolutely lovely to work with! I wish I could remember the names of the guys on the initial job, but it was a bit ago. I think our head mover's name was John.Our crew yesterday included Nathan, Landon, Ben, Noah, Noah, and Jay. Everyone was so respectful, hardworking, and had a great attitude! They made a normally stressful process kinda fun. And man, those guys never stopped working! I wish I had their energy. LolWe seriously could not have made this move without their help!And our total cost came in well under the estimate, which was a nice surprise!I highly recommend hiring Blue Cow to help with your next move!
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.
