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.
We used Blue Cow moving our daughter 2 different times in Des Moines. We just used them this past Friday on the coldest day in decades. They are without doubt the best, most reliable movers we have ever used! The guys were outstanding, handles items with care and moved quickly. The communication was superior. There isn't praise high enough for these folks!! Thank you Blue Cow.
My move went very smoothly due to the excellent care and very helpful and mannerly young men. They took care in moving my stuff and we’re very patient with me deciding where things needed to go. I highly recommend them and would use them again. Thanks guys.
We’ve used the Blue Cow team for multiple jobs now and they never disappoint. Our crew today was professional, courteous and a great value. They arrived on-time and got the job done very quickly & were very careful.
Carson and John did a fabulous job helping me move - they were incredibly professional and efficient. Thank you SO much BlueCowMoving for making this such a stress free and pleasant experience!
Blue Cow Moving did a fantastic job with our recent move. They were careful with our items and worked efficiently throughout the entire process. Highly recommend their services!
Blue Cow movers were incredibly polite efficient and very careful with my belongings. I was thrilled with how quickly they took care of business and got me unpacked and set up at my new home. They have certainly moved to the top of my list as local movers!
Blue Cow did an amazing job with our out of town move! They were quick and efficient and got the job done faster than originally estimated. The crew was incredibly kind and introduced themselves to my husband and I as well. We are very grateful for their team!
Great communication from Chase in advance so I felt very prepared for the team's arrival. The actual time for everything was very close to the quoted estimate and they were very responsive to our requests. The team was professional and hard working. I would use them again in a heartbeat!
Our moving team was amazing. Polite, efficient, friendly, and most of all handled our belongings with care and consideration. I plan to never move again, but will recommend your services to any and all I know that may need a hand.
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.
Blue Cow has been great to work with from the start of this journey. The gentlemen that helped start my move today were friendly, efficient and did exactly everything I asked. We have a couple of days together and so far I’m extremely impressed.
Absolutely great experience working with these gentlemen! They were communicative, cooperative, careful and have great customer service! Good job hiring these gentlemen. I have and will continue to recommend them to others.
At Blue Cow Moving & Storage, we believe every customer should know exactly what to expect when it comes to the cost of their move. That’s why our estimates have no extra fees or hidden costs.
