I had the best experience with the actual movers--Anthony and Edgar (not so much with packrat.com) They were kind, uplifting and humorous and worked very hard to place everything and encourage me. I will use them again for other local jobs and appreciated all the encouragement from Mr Jaso as well who took all my anxious calls with kindness.

Noah and Jeremiah did a phenomenal job on packing up the PackRat storage container. With all of my belongings, I even have room left. I will need a second round of packing up at the end of this month and will be using ProLoad again.

I am a very happy client.

Thank you, elfie

Infinity Movers was amazing!!! They came early to assess what we had. They utilized the space in the PackRat amazingly. Every space was used. We had an upright piano that they easily moved and secured in the container. And somehow they got the treadmill out of the door without disassembling it. Definitely recommend using them. You won't regret it.

Jeff and Andy from Them Movers did a terrific job and unloading the PackRat container with my furniture. They were on time and both extraordinarily polite. They handled all my possessions professionally and with great care, and they placed everything exactly where I asked them to within my home. I would highly recommend Jeff and Andy and Them Movers to handle moving labor help you may need.

A-1 Reliable Movers were just that: reliable - and provided great communication including contacting me in advance of the move date, confirming details, and showing up on time. I arranged their services via the PackRat container shipping service and had 2 men for up to 3 hours to load my container. They worked quickly and were professional and courteous. Highly recommended!
