Both guys worked hard and for a long time. They were careful with my belongings and were always offering to assist me, when they saw me lifting something.

I could not have done this load without them.

The team was about 10 minutes late, but they called in advance to let me know. They were prepared, polite, and professional. They worked hard and steady - and helped us problem solve a few challenges. It was great to have their experience and perspective. Would hire them again!

It would have been better that we had an estimator see how many PODS we needed. At this point we have a small tactical mess of coordinating your movers with the pickup and delivery of the materials.

This isn’t your problem but I’m a debriefing that is what we should have done

This is an updated review from my previous 1 star rating. On 2/7/19, I received a call from Pat at Moving Zoom. He read my past negative review and felt the need to reach out. He was very apologetic and wished to make things right for me. He offered a $350 refund which I gladly accepted. I appreciate the company’s willingness to make sure that I’m happy with their service.

Original review:
I’m revising my previous, “Job well done”. Yes, the guys were on time and very friendly. They were respectful of my things while taking them out of the apartment. But, once they started working it became obvious that one of the young men was being trained. At the pace they were working I could tell they were going to run over the 2 hours. The apartment was only about 730 sq ft, 1 bedroom, 1 bath. It took them 4.5 hours. It ended up costing $600. Mind you, everything was ready for them. All they had to do was load the container. The boxes that were fragile and very fragile were marked as such. This was brought to their attention. I had 12 shipping blankets ready for them and gave them specific instructions on what was in most need of the blankets. They seemed to understand my requests. I was alone so I stayed inside to direct them trusting that they knew how to properly load the container. When everything was done they showed me the container. They explained how they made sure everything was secured tightly with straps. We locked it up. The container was shipped from California to Texas. I used Hire-A-Helper again to off load to my new apartment. These gentlemen were shocked at what they saw. They took pictures in the container of crushed “very fragile” boxes that were at the bottom of stacks. My desk (that the original movers were told was fragile and to load with care) that had things stacked on it and was ready to fall apart. In fact, to off load the desk it had to be disassembled to move. I very clearly asked for blankets to be placed on some specific pieces of expensive furniture. This was not done. There was damage. So to sum it up, DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY.

Austin and Tony did a great job of fitting some very challenging, heavy, fragile items into our truck. They were careful and used space very efficiently. They were nice and amiable, professional and got the job done. They were able to stay an hour longer to help with additional items. Highly revommended

Did a good job, although they were a bit late and they rushed things at the end, causing several lamp shades to break and be squished. Overall they were fast, efficient, and very good at packing in things tightly. Even with the minor issues, I would use them again. These sorts of things are expected in a big move across a country.

Mover's response:
Thank you for your feedback. I, Pat, the owner of MovingZoom, was physically present at this move. We were 30 minutes late and informed Mark that we were running late several hours before the scheduled start time. Moreover, prior to the move, I'd instructed Mark to either pack his lampshades ahead of time or to provide packing materials for us to pack the lampshades. We do not supply packing materials; we only provide loading materials, such as furniture pads, tie-downs, and shrink wrap. Mark neither packed the lampshades himself nor purchased materials for our crew to do so. We did not rush. On the contrary, we loaded the lampshades as best we could for a cross-country move with minimal protection.
