What a stress reliever!! The team was punctual, professional and did awesome work. They accommodated us on short notice, worked with us to adjust arrival time, and communicated when they were en route. This is a two phase move - this was just off-loading help. Part two will be loading and unloading, and this is the team we will use!

Mover's response:
Thanks for this truly sincere review. We are grateful for the opportunity to work with you.

Absolutely awful and unprofessional!!! They were awful to deal with from beginning to end. Every time you call their number, it will inevitably go to voicemail. Takes days for them to call you back. I had to leave multiple voicemails to get a call back several days later. We drove cross country on a three day trip and were supposed to have them show the evening we arrived. They never showed and never called. I kept calling their cell phone to the point where they turned off their cell phone to ignore me, and it would go straight to voicemail. This is completely asinine. Because of their unprofessionalism, we had to find hotel for the evening after a 14 hour drive that day. I would NEVER recommend them to anyone.

Mover's response:
This is a very far and few situation for us. This was a late evening job booked between 6-7 PM and we actually got stuck out on the river on our jet ski. Besides this job we had the day off and planned on going for a ride before the move. We ended up getting stranded on the water for several hours with poor cell service. By the time we were able to get ahold of you and our other crew to get to the job on our behalf you had already decided to cancel and leave this review. Our crew was in route when order was cancelled. We do apologize for the circumstances and we tried to work with you as best we could given the circumstances. This is a direct contrast to our typical feedback and we did make every attempt to rectify the situation. We are all deeply sorry that we were not able to make it out. We try very hard to be the very best this site has to offer and we dropped the ball on this one.

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.
