Forest City Mover Reviews
Chris, Zach, Blake, and Jared were the dream team. They were excellent.
These guys were amazing, personable, packed my POD very proficiently, and I enjoyed the interaction while they loaded my POD. I would definitely definitely recommend!! and we'll worth a great Tip. Thank You much. ??
Myron and Tony Simmons were great, incredible job, hard workers and very courteous. I highly recommend FREELANCE MOVERS!
I decided at the last minute to rent a U-Haul for my move rather than go with an expensive moving company. (I saved over $1,000. This was for a small move across town - I can't imagine how much someone would save for a larger move.) The two guys showed up on time (one was even there early, so be prepared for that), and in short order they walked through the house, devised a plan, and started carrying items out. We hired them for 4 hours total to load and unload, which included drive time. They were courteous, helped problem solve some tricky logistics like an immovable dog gate that required them to lift a heavy dresser practically over their heads, and were totally comfortable with us "helping" here and there.

Fantastic job. They came and quickly and efficiently moved everything. It was done very well with nothing broken. They also assembled everything for me. Very professional. Highly recommend.
Chris and his team were extremely hardworking and efficient with their time and storage abilities. They were very conscientious, polite and conscious of the owner's needs. Would definitely recommend and/or work with them again in the future.
We had a 16 foot pod with a lot of big items. I was a little skeptical of how much it could fit. The guys got everything in there plus some. Overall, very happy with the service and would recommend to anyone.
