Albany Mover Reviews
Marshall and his crew did a fantastic job, loading two PODS in no time. Very professional and HIGHLY recommended.
Reliable Movers are the best. Movers were on time and went right to work. They asked pertinent questions and followed directions as given. Made suggestions that made the move go smoothly and efficiently. Most of all, they were very personable and pleasant. Very professional. I would hire them again without hesitation. Excellent job.
These guys are the best. On time, they worked extremely fast and efficiently, and they are professionals, got a huge amount of furniture into just 12 feet of the pod. Would recommend them every time. Thanks a lot to them they were excellent and very hard, steady workers. They did a huge amount of work in just 90 minutes. Worth every dollar.
Champs Moving & Labor arrived on time, were helpful, brought their own equipment to unload my super packed 15’ POD in 2 hours. I walked them around the house to familiarize them with the rooms etc. All I had to do is tell them which room the items went to, because they remembered! They were fast, accurate, but careful. I appreciated that they lined up boxes in rooms in a way that I could walk around without bumping into them. The bulk of our boxes went to the basement where they were lined up in an orderly fashion. They were friendly, but didn’t waste time over-chatting. A pleasure to work with. High recommendations for Champs. I definitely would use them if I have to move again. Great job!
The guys were friendly, amazing, and fast! I will absolutely recommend Hire a Helper and IJC Logistics to everyone I know that needs to move. I am very impressed with their professionalism and how rapidly they completed both ends of my move. Well done!!
The movers arrived and worked as a team of five. They were energetic and well led by their supervisor. The team members were had a positive and friendly work attitude. They worked quickly and efficiently. They were an energetic and cheerful team. The supervisor was very efficient in the business matters involved in this transaction. If feasible, I would definitely hire this team again. Wayne Clarke

These two guys were great: On time! Personable! Efficient! I wish I remembered their names. Please make sure you tell them directly. I would like to hire these exact people every time!
Parris and Thomas worked hard and were careful with our belongings. They communicated well and sent us messages when the job was booked and when they were on the way. They did a great job of packing our pod tight. They got a lot more done in 2 hours than I thought would get done. Would definitely use them again.
They were quiet they were kind and they were very knowledgeable. I really enjoyed them. They’re all like having friends over to help you move only they know what they were doing and didn’t drink beer like the friends would’ve anyway yes I would definitely recommend them. They were awesome out there give them a call. They were wonderful if you’re looking for a great movers these guys are awesome.
The team showed up as scheduled and after giving them a tour of the items we were moving they filled our POD with room to spare although we had already started planning on what would not go with us. Great guys very polite and knowledgeable in moving our items and taking care to wrap and store everything securely for our move. High recommend them for your moving needs.
Excellent, efficient service! Adrian and his partner were very friendly and thoughtful with this move. I will definitely reach out again as the need arises!
They did an amazing, respectful and efficient job. Accommodated a change in time as we were running behind. I would highly recommend Reliable Movers.

Had 2 workers for about one hour, although we had contracted for two hours. Both worked hard and we were finished in slightly less than one hour. Both were careful and respectful of our property. I would absolutely use their services again.
We just had Taj and Keenan here from reliable movers from Cohoes NY to help us move furniture. They were very professional, had great communication and completed all work in a timely manner and made sure that we were 100 percent satisfied. Deb and Bill Saratoga, New York
Virgil and Abril are a wonderful team to work with at our new home. From the moment they got on our property, they were ready to go and unpack our trailer. Their attitude was positive and funny. I highly recommend them for future jobs. They worked quickly and efficiently.
They communicated quickly about the job and from there it was super quick and easy! They did a great job fitting all of our stuff into the truck and they were having a fun time doing it! I’d highly recommend them for any moving needs you have!
Wow! So pleased with our movers! They called and said they would be available earlier than the scheduled time but only if we were! We had gathered most everything to move in one room and it was emptied so quickly. They packed the truck efficiently, and secured everything with my straps. Stuff did not move! They were friendly and quick and so easy to work with. Thank you!
