I could not have asked for better people. These guys were fantastic. Very professional, and they were flexible while we debated certain items to take or not take. They were very efficient, and they did such a wonderful job packing our pods Crate. I was so impressed with their work ethic that if I was hiring people for a business, I would definitely hire these guys.

They were professional and nice to my mom. I’ve already sent their info to my friend. One thing that I forgot to mention to them is that my POD was going over the Appalachian mountains so the tie downs they did weren’t enough for my needs, but they might be fine for the Midwest. So, to the next customer: be sure to note where it is going so they can put the appropriate amount of tie downs.

Tavon & Cam did an excellent job in helping me move several large items from the dining room & living room to the pod on my driveway. They carefully wrapped all of my items with moving blankets and shrink wrap before moving the items and then secured the items with rope inside the pod. They were on time and very efficient. Thank you both for your help today!

Robert and his team were simply excellent. They were fast but careful, efficient without cutting corners. They were also extremely nice people. They did everything with a smile on their face and said "you're welcome", probably 100x, following each time I said, "thank you". I could not have asked for a better experience than the one I had with Positive Solutions. Thank you!
