They did come 1/2 hour late but were all business when they arrived. They did let me know they were running late. I showed them the rooms for the furniture to be moved to. I told them were the pieces went and they carefully moved it there so my wife then told them were to place the pieces. We completed the move with 5 minutes to spare. I plan to use them when the next move of items needs to be done. They really saved my wife and myself a lot of back pain. Well worth the money.

All Pro Movers Profile Image

I recently hired All Pro Movers to help load my Penske truck with furniture and unload it at my new home, and I couldn't be happier with their service! From start to finish, the team was professional, efficient, and incredibly friendly. They arrived on time, ready to tackle the job with a great attitude. Loading the truck was a breeze; they handled my furniture with care, ensuring everything was securely packed for the journey. Their expertise made me feel confident that my belongings were in good hands. Once we arrived at the new house, the unloading process was just as smooth. They worked quickly and diligently, placing everything exactly where I wanted it. I truly appreciated their attention to detail and willingness to go the extra mile. If you're looking for a reliable and hardworking moving crew, I highly recommend All Pro Movers. They made what could have been a stressful day into a seamless experience!

Wow, Frank and his crew came through in a big way! My Buddy team showed at their designated time, even phoned ahead to notify of their ETA. Upon arrival, Frank goes into action, assessing the unloading of the truck and move into an apt. Once that was complete, he organized his team and they got to work. They handled every item in the truck and up the 3 flights with respect and without hesitation. This was the last move of the day for them. Yet they showed up enthusiastic and executed an efficient and professional move. I recommend and would utilize the My Buddy team again.
