(5) 9/24/2021 Belle Plaine

These guys (Jay and Bryce, forgive me if I misspelled) were waiting for me when I got to the storage facilities. I had forgotten my keys and they were a huge help there! Due to their diligence, I was able to get started right away rather than having to go all the way home to get the keys. They moved right along, well mannered and professional. They offered suggestions based on their experience which I used to my advantage. I would be happy to use them again.

Mover's response:
Thank you for the awesome review Michael! We hope to work for you again in the future!

Got stuff moved from point A to point B in record time. Would recommend - they picked up our work on short notice after their competitor canceled late.

Thank you for the great review Pete!

Top notch movers. Friendly, on-time. Finished within 2 hour window. Did a great job of organizing our furniture into moving pod. I did not see a single mark on my walls when they were done.

Highly recommend. Going to hire them again to move in our new home.

Thanks!

Mover's response:
Thank you for the great review Christopher! We look forward to helping you move into your new home!

We were not impressed overall. The crew didn’t show up at the same time, and needed consistent direction on items needing to be grabbed, even though we made it clear from the start. The gentleman in charge did not communicate on site with us almost ever, even a simple hello as we walked by in the hallway, which made it odd as we were trying to be sociable. We were carrying the majority of boxes in and out, and felt like they only moved a few large items overall. Most of all, we did not feel as though they were very cautious with our items, or careful of the space. We found them carrying boxed TV’s sideways and upside down, things falling off carts, etc. For the price we paid, I certainly am frustrated. I would not recommend them.

Mover's response:
Hi Garrett, we are wondering if this review was meant for the company who loaded your truck. If it was meant for us, we are sorry that we did not live up to expectations. We hold ourselves to a high standard, and are truly disappointed that we didn't meet it.

Job well done by the three guys sent for our 2 POD unload. Worked super for the time they were assigned and stayed an extra 15 minutes to get everything complete even though they had to drive across the city to get to their next job. Would recommend for sure.

Mover's response:
Thank you for the great review Jessica!

I hired 2 movers and at first only 1 showed up. They sent a replacement but by the time he arrived it was 45 minutes after the start time had ended. Since we were setting up for an event, time was of the essence. Both movers were on the slower side and not self motivated to keep going, it seemed like they were just running out the clock so they could leave without doing much work. I told the original person I spoke with after booking on hire-a-helper, that they would be moving equipment and setting up for an event from items stored on a semi, this message was not passed on to the actual movers so the first guy was expecting just to be loading a trailer and didn't seem happy when we found out what he was going to be doing. They were instructed on what we wanted them to do and some of it was done incorrectly so then someone else had to go back and fix their mistakes. In the end for the amount I pay and how much work they actually did, it wasn't worth the price. I had some friends that came in later to help and did more work then they did in less time.

They showed up on time and worked the full amount of time. They were knowledgeable on loading the truck (which doesn’t always happen), but also willing to do things my way and do it exactly the way I wanted. I had almost everything prepared and ‘staged’ for them, and we nearly loaded the whole truck in that amount of time. As someone who use to work for a moving company I was a little skeptic because you never know what kind of worker you’re going to get, would 100% use them again, they’re someone I would’ve wanted to work with.

Mover's response:
Thank you for the awesome review! It's always great to impress other moving industry veterans!

Get To Know Us

What can a customer expect after booking with you?

When a customer books with 5-Star Movers, they can expect a prompt phone call to go over the details of the move, and discuss what the best options are for the customer to make the move go as smoothly as possible.

What can a customer expect on moving day if they hire you?

The customer should expect a crew that moves their items quickly and efficiently, while also being lighthearted and able to joke around with them and have fun on the moving day.

How should a customer prepare for moving day?

The customer should prepare for moving day by making sure they have plenty of ratchet straps and blankets so our team can come in and make sure all of their items are packed as securely and safely as possible. If it is a larger apartment complex, we advise that they reserve a freight elevator for use during their move.

What types of moves have you handled?

We have done all types of moves from long distance full-service jobs to California, office moves, full PODs packs, and even just moving a couch around in a house. We can do it all!

What's your favorite part about being a mover?

My favorite part of being a mover is the variation in environment from day to day. Sometimes I could be working at a 8000 square foot mansion with a 6 man crew, other days I could be working at a studio apartment with one other person. Every day is truly different, and that's what makes it exciting!

What training do you provide your crew members?

Our crew members all know how to use basic tools for assembly and disassembly, they know how to use moving equipment such as dollies and shoulder straps to make the move smoother. Our experienced guys are very good at loading trucks, and show the new people how to do it so they can one day be a great loader as well. We also prioritize attention to detail and will miss out on jobs sometimes rather than ever sending a crew we don't believe is 5-Star quality.
