The movers were on time and worked quickly. My issue is they didn’t pack the big furniture in first so the door couldn’t open fully on the truck. They also proceeded to leave out our couch so we had to pay for more time for them to unpack part of the truck and put the couch in.

Also one of the guys was constantly answering his cell phone and was talking to his wife which was annoying

Mover's response:
Wow. 1st review under 5 stars in a very long time. We are sorry that you expected us to load a 3 bed room home into a 16ft truck. You paying for extra time had everything to do with poor planning on your part and let it be know that we did the best that we could for you based on the circumstances. Its annoying to me that you would try to insinuate that I spent the entire job on the phone when in reality I called my wife to order us food and then answered her call pertaining to the same delivery a few minutes later, totaling 3 minutes at best of total phone time. Are you claiming that the 3 minutes I spent (having her order for me even, to save time) cost you going over time or is it safer to say that by getting too small of a truck plus not communicating what you expected of us early on cost you that extra time because we were very clear from the start of the job that the truck was too small and that all of the big items were not likely to fit. Your response was simply "ALL items need to go!" It was made very clear that while you expected that to happen, the actuality of it happening was unlikely. At the end of the day with your unrealistic expectations there was little chance of us effectively reaching those expectations. Thank you for your business and your feedback.

They were able to knock out everything quickly and were in and out. Had dollies and straps to help with the heavy items going upstairs too. Thanks again !

Thomas and Tony are awesome. They arrived ontime, they got straight to work and are very professional. We just arrived from out of town and were exhausted. We had nothing to eat or drink for hours. They were so gracious to offer what they had in their cooler.
Will definitely use their service again. I highly recommend them.

Mover's response:
It was definitely our pleasure to help out with your move and as far as offering drinks, we were raised to offer what we have to those in need.

Get To Know Us

What can a customer expect after booking with you?

After booking with us you can expect a phone call from our offices just to reach out and get a feel for your unique situation. We will go over all needed supplies and firm up all the details.

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

Upon moving day you will receive a call from your movers within an hour of your booked arrival window. The movers will reach out just to make sure everything is still going according to plan and will give you their expected GPS arrival time. We know that nothing is more stressful than being nervous that the movers aren't gonna show up, so we like to put your mind at ease.

How should a customer prepare for moving day?

If you will be hiring us to load your rental truck, trailer or portable shipping container it is imperative that you provide an adequate amount of moving blankets, plastic stretch wrap and rope to avoid serious damage to your items. The blankets can usually be rented with your truck or portable shipping container and are worth every penny. We can provide rope and plastic wrap for an additional fee or it can be purchased at Lowe's or Home Depot in the moving supplies section.

What types of moves have you handled?

We have handled literally every type of move from local to long distance, from household to office/commercial. We have handled everything from medical equipment to flight simulators and we are equipped to move large items such as pianos and grand pianos.

What's your favorite part about being a mover?

Our favorite part about being movers is that we get to help someone with literally the hardest and most stressful task of their adult life.

What training do you provide your crew members?

All of our crew leaders are required to have a minimum of 4 years professional moving experience and upon hire, undergo at least 2 weeks of training with the owner of the company (a very particular veteran mover in the industry) before being set free to operate independently. All crew members undergo the same training and we typically only hire crew members who possess at least 2 years minimum professional moving experience. We don't send rookies, period.
