Jody's Moving and Labor LLC Profile Image

Jody's Moving and Labor, LLC were fantastic!! They were able to come out to do our move a day earlier than originally planned. The team was exceptionally polite and professional. Our move was a little unconventional and they rolled with it, no problem! On top of that, they were remarkably quick! We have every intention of using them again!!

The guys were incredible! They were friendly, helpful, courteous, and most importantly, they were careful with everything they moved. Not one scratch occurred on any piece of furniture or the door jambs throughout the house. Plus, they were quick! That is rare for a company that is paid hourly. I would highly recommend this company and will use them again!

The two movers who loaded up our two relocubes did an amazing job! They worked very hard and were able to fit pretty much everything in there in about 2 hours. We were on the 3rd apartment floor so we were very impressed with how fast they were. So grateful we had their help! I would definitely recommend. Thank you so much!
