The loaders turned up on time and got straight to work. They had not brought the hand truck that we had requested, but they still got everything loaded into the containers in the time we had allowed for.
They were very careful handling the furniture etc. I would recommend them.

Mover's response:
Thanks Jonathan, our apologies regarding the dolly. Glad we were able to get everything completed in the allotted time frame.

They were very pleasant and followed instructions.
However, we expected them to be expert movers and that was not the case. The way they stacked our household items in storage leaves much to be desired. Just for an example although we took three 10 x 10 units, one more than what was recommended for a 5 bedroom home, they were still packed tight while leaving a large amount of overhead room. As a result a king size mattress was wedge against one of the door slides which ripped the mattress case and makes it nearly impossible to close the door.

We are seriously considering re packing the units.

Mover's response:
Kasi, please call us and we will work with you to rearrange the items if you'd like. My contact information was sent to the email address you put on file. The team mentioned that there were some items that they didn't feel comfortable stacking and that you had items in both storage units when they arrived and it was not packed correctly, they offered to rearrange at that time and was told by the gentleman that you would just purchase another. We appreciate your business and your feedback.!

Our helpers were on time, prepared, courteous, fast and efficient. They worked hard carrying furniture up three flights of stairs and helped us rearrange furniture once it was moved in. Would definitely recommend them and use them again!

Mover's response:
Thanks for the AWESOME 5 STAR RATING Harry. Your business is appreciated.

They had much difficulty with my sofa. They asked if the legs came off and they did, but they were unable to remove the screws. They said that they were not told to bring tools? Had trouble getting it through the door, could not get it in the elevator and then parked it in the outer hallway, saying that it would have to go last.
Since we were loading a pod, this was unacceptable, so I asked to speak to their supervisor. Supervisor was at a funeral. Movers finally powered it down the stairway, but the edges were scratched and the hall paint had a saucer size chip in the plaster/paint.
After this first piece experience, I used them to bring down the other pieces only and my nephew and I loaded the pod. I can only describe them as inexperienced.
I had this move organized so that all the boxes were staged in the garage. The pieces that your crew moved were a tabletop, 8 kitchen chairs, recliner, easy chair, cedar chest, queen mattress, box spring, 2- twin mattresses and box springs, two four foot dressers, a drop leaf table (10 inches wide), ottoman and the 7 ft. leather sofa. When I asked them to bring down the queen set first, they said they were doing room to room, so the twins were in the driveway. Packing a pod requires planning the pieces, not geography. They were on time and respectful, they tried hard but were not prepared nor experienced. I would not use your service again.

Mover's response:
Based on the items listed, I'm a bit perplexed that our team had such difficulty. We've completed approximately 3000 moving jobs in the past 8-9 years and our reviews are the only voice we have. I was contacted and, yes, I was at a funeral and did not have an opportunity to even speak with the helpers. However, you could have called either Hire-A-Helper or myself with your discrepancies. This is the first I'm hearing of your issues.
