The two helpers from this company were on time, very expedient, nice, and overall wonderful to work with. I hired the company fairly last minute but the communication from the start was great and made the whole process very smooth. Would definitely hire again and recommend to others.

The guys checked in with me in the morning. They were efficient and unloaded the Pod quickly. The only thing that I didn’t like is that they put the boxes on my bed. I would have preferred them on the floor but I was not up stairs supervising. Other than that they were great. Thank you

Sharp Van Lines moved our furniture carefully and made sure there that our stuff would not break or get scratched. The movers packed and moved all of our things in one day. Prices were a little high but it was worth it. I would recommend this company to others looking for trustworthy movers in the area.
