Little Justins Moving Co. Profile Image

Best investment in my move process. We had three filled Pack-Rat PODS delivered to out new home. I was able to schedule the crew to come in to help with the final move. The crew was amazing, they moved 2 PODS worth of equipment was moved in 3 hours and they were so respectful of the new house and furniture being moved. Not a wall dinged, or piece dropped. They were a very well-oiled machine. Their biggest weakness was me being able to direct where each piece was to be moved as they moved so fast and efficient.

Karah and Zachary were on time, polite, prepared to start right away. My boxes were clearly marked, and delivered to the correct rooms. I had 4 very heavy pieces of furniture and 2 flights of steps for them to navigate along with washer and dryer and 96 boxes. They were finished in 2 hours flat!! I'm def. Requesting them for any additional help I'll EVER need!! You should request them too if you want to be amazed instead of disappointed! ??
