Colton and Parker were fantastic. On time, Polite, Professional, Friendly, Hard Working and moved and packed everything at a good pace. They came to do the work and NOT stand around looking at their phones.

We would hire them again and highly recommend them.

The guys were on time, pleasant, and worked hard. They even moved existing furniture to make room for the new pieces. A very successful experience.

Blue Cow sent two young men to our house for an unloading job. They were punctual and they were both kind, friendly and respectful. We thought we made them work pretty hard, and they kept a sense of humor throughout! Will definitely use this company again!

This team communicated well. They were early in arrival and did everything I asked. My only issue was the price. I paid over $400 and they had it unloaded in 30 minutes. I felt robbed. Hire a Helper and/or Blue Cow need a sliding scale.

Mover's response:
Thanks so much for the positive review, Aileen! We really appreciate the kind words about our team. While we love connecting with customers through HireAHelper, one of the downsides is that we do have a lot less control over the final cost customers pay than we normally would. Thank you again for your feedback, Aileen! It means a whole lot to us.

The two young men that helped us unload at our new home on 8/11/2023 were amazing. They were hard workers, very helpful and extremely polite. I would recommend them to anyone looking for help. Thank you for sending them our way.

Thanks so much for the great review, John!
