These guys loaded our house into two pods. The items were packed into the pods and wrapped perfectly. No wasted space anywhere. They worked non-stop and were careful with every piece of furniture. I would recommend them to anyone who is moving.

Mover's response:
We appreciate that David and look forward to working with you on 8/13. Thanks for the continued support.

The guys were on time, very cooperative and hustled the whole time. Plus they didn't object when we realized we needed them for 30 more minutes than we'd originally booked. We continue to be very happy with S & L moving services.

Mover's response:
Thank you Eccles

S & L Express Moving Services proved to be the worst moving company with whom I have ever done business. When I moved into my apartment, it took the movers (another company) less than 90 minutes to move everything UP three flights of stairs. It took S & L's team nearly three hours to move most of my items DOWN the stairs, and they were still not done. At some point I just started to move items myself. Their supervisor came by to try to excuse their poor service by saying "this really should have been a four person job" (something they should have told me over the phone when I originally booked them if that were the case, considering I had expressly told them that I was moving a 1 bedroom apartment's worth of items down from the top of a 4 story walkup). More importantly, while I understand that moving items down the stairs might take some time, nothing excuses their not following directions. I explicitly and unequivocally told them multiple times that my primary concern was getting everything (which was all completely packed) out of the apartment and down the stairs. If it did not get onto the truck and was not completely packed up, that was fine because I could do it myself after they left, but their most important task was to get everything moved next to the truck and down the stairs. Instead, after they moved about 2/3 of the items downstairs they practically refused to come back upstairs and insisted they would stay by the truck and "keep packing and loading" what was already down there. In other words, they didn't want to carry anything else down the stairs, which then forced me to have to do it myself; not what I was paying for. I told them many times to stop working on the truck and come upstairs, but they repeatedly refused. When I arrived at my new location I found out exactly what they had wasted all that time near the truck doing. They disassembled a number of cardboard boxes to wrap up several items that I told them I was not at all concerned about (e.g., a $15 Ikea file cabinet that is almost 10 years old, so it's fine if it gets scratched a bit, and not worth the 20 minutes they spent taping it up) and basically spent the better part of the last hour and a half rearranging any number of items on the truck simply to look busy because they did not want to, and refused to when I repeatedly asked them, come upstairs and get the rest of my items out of the apartment. Overall, the move was both much more expensive than I had anticipated and the service was horrible. I have no problem paying for service that is efficient and professional, but they were neither. I would not recommend this moving company to anyone.

Mover's response:
This was a 3 floor walk up which was really like 4 floors. The helpers made almost 100 trips up\down these stairs with multiple items. There was NO DAMAGE and the job was completed in just under 3 hours ( I commend these helpers, I walked up once and felt their pain). I provided a 1/2 hr refund as a courtesy. NO DAMAGE..
