Excellent job. Scott communicated with us well and helped to coordinate the unload or our 26 foot truck that was packed to the brim. Will and Edgar killed it. No standing around , not on their phones and kept moving the whole time. Highly recommend, as they made the entire process much easier!

Mover's response:
Hi Jonathan! Thanks so much for everything & welcome to the Chicagoland area! All our best! Scott M.-Owner.

Another wonderful job by the Couch Potatoes crew! One of the helpers was slightly delayed because of traffic (I know hard to believe for Chicago) and the owner Scott contacted me before scheduled start time so I knew what was happening. Edgar and Tim were great! Had my storage locker emptied and truck loaded in less than 20 minutes. No delays unloading everything and getting it up to my second floor apartment. This was my second time using Couch Potatoes and will definitely use again if needed. Highly recommend them!

Mover's response:
Hi Jim! Great to hear from our fantastic repeat clients! Thanks for everything & take care! All our best, Scott-Owner.

The two helpers were very good! They were very nice, moved quickly, pointed out things that were damaged by travel (no fault of theirs) so that I could take inventory of my items, brought tools and offered to help with any assembly I needed.

Scott, the owner, was accessible and helpful.

Would definitely recommend this company and I will use again in the future for my next move.

Mover's response:
Hi Ryan! Thanks for everything & enjoy your new home! All our best!

Scott's crew was AMAZING! They were on time, efficient, professional and courteous. It was a huge relief to have them help with the furniture move. We could not have done it without them! They were always careful with our things and were masterful at packing the truck. I can't say enough good things about them, and I will recommend them to anyone I know who is moving! Thank you again!!

Hi Jamie! Thank you so much & my staff guy's enjoyed helping you with everything! Take care & all our best! Scott - Owner

Couch Potatoes is a great help with moving. They were very efficient in packing and unloading. We couldn't believe how quickly it went and everything travelled in great shape. They even helped wrap some of our delicate furniture. Thank you for your help!

They were on time. They did a terrible job packing the moving truck to the point that hireahelper was going to send a second team out to unpack the truck and reload it properly. Fortunately had some friends and neighbors who were able to help us repack the very back of the truck. Since our driver had been waiting several hours while hireahelper attempted to resolve the issue, my mother chose to just have the truck go to New Jersey. When the truck arrived inNew Jersey, several both beds and other furniture was destroyed. PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. I spoke to the owner on the phone and he arrived with the team at the house. he seems very engaged and concerned about the work effort and his reputation. he kept stating that if there were any issues to please call him and he would make sure everything was taking care of. when I called to explain the problems with how the truck was packed he was combative and rude. he basically told me that he would come back out even though it was a waste of his time to have to drive that far back again. by the time he arrived we just had family and friends already repacked the truck. it wasn't until the movers and the other state were able to take all of the furniture out that we saw what a true disaster it was. Pictures were taken of the way the truck was improperly pack to begin with and on the other side where the furniture was destroyed. Hireahelper has been very helpful. They understood that with a cross-state move, I did not want a refund for the terrible service I wanted another team to come out and properly do the job so the move could go forward. And they did actively try to find a team to come out Saturday, late in the afternoon. Thankfully we had some family and neighbors who were able to help us while Hireahelper was searching for a team.

Mover's response:
Kareen. It is very unprofessional to release false statements about damages without any facts. I have valid documentation of our conversations and pictures of your loaded items on the truck, in proper and safe placement. In addition, you did not adhere to my initial request for the required supplies. I personally supervised the entire job and had my staff do a walk through of your mother's entire home, with her and you, to be sure all items were accounted for. I have 22 years of project management experience and over 3 years as a small business venture. I am a valued & respected owner in the industry. I wish you well. Scott - Owner
