The 4 guys that came to help us, were very respectful and careful moving and packing in a very smart way. They were very friendly and open to hear what we would like to happen and yet pack everything so effectively. We were nervous at first as we have never had this service before. All we can say is, we are so impressed with their work and professionalism. They definitely look hard and smart and worked very well together as a team and ran by us ,questions regarding our preferences of items that needed to be packed. We would highly recommend using their services and we would definitely use their services again if we have the need again.
