They were on time. They were prepared for the job. They worked hard although several times I could hear them banging my furniture and that worried me a little. Overall they did a good job.

Mover's response:
You say you HEARD us "banging" your furniture around? Well, I assure you that we were not "banging" your furnishings on anything. We did however work with you when your PODS didn't show up on time and arrived at 6pm. The location of the PODS was less than ideal and the boxes were severely overpacked but we did get it all in for you in less time than the booked time. We really appreciate the positive feedback, Glenda.

Called these guys with less than a week, they,showed up on time and ready to go. These guys busted their butts. They were friendly,and respectful of our instructions on the couple of sensitive items we had. We hired them for 4 hours and since they worked so hard from,the begining finished early. Instead of just leaving they asked if we needed help reorganizing some of the items moved. All in all very pleased with the work done!

Mover's response:
We built our company on the reputation of going the extra mile. Never will our movers leave you feeling less than stellar. We can always do as much or as little as you'd like but we always opt to do more than less. Communication is key and knowing your needs allows us to be able to meet them.

Annessa and Tony showed up on time, had everything they needed and were auper knowledgeable about the best way to unload truck and pack the storage unit. I would recommend them and plan on using them again.

Mover's response:
Awesome review, Jason. Annessa and I are very grateful that you took the time to leave your feedback. It really means a lot to us when our customers take the time out of their day to tell others about thier experience!

Great crew, Showed up on time, Wrapped everything, Took great care loading the truck and was finished in 2 Hours, Would highly recommend.

Mover's response:
Matthew & Thomas were the young men who loaded your truck. We are glad to hear things went smoothly. Our movers go through an extensive amount of training before they are set free on jobsites. You will never get and inexperienced mover that causes all your stuff to get messed up-not from us-that's not how we do things.

Perfect movers! Polite, fast and nothing was damaged!!

Mover's response:
Well Carol, as long as our customers get the correct amount of moving blankets, plastic wrap and rope, they can expect a very smooth move with our company. There was only ever one perfect being and we could never compare to Him. Thanks for the great review, Carol!

The pod unloading team (which included the owner) arrived exactly on time, and did a great job of unloading our pod full of very heavy/bulky furniture. Even with a heavy safe, they moved much of the load upstairs (3 flights) without a single blemish on the furnishings and no damage to the new walls and handrails. They also beat their own expected time (2 hours) to unload and locate all the furnishings, by not taking a break until all the unloading was complete. They came fully prepared to move all our furnishings, with dollies, hand trucks, and straps. Although we don't intend to move again, we'd certainly entertain using them again if ever needed.

Mover's response:
Wow. What an awesome review, Tom. We truly do enjoy seeing this type of reaction from customers after doing business with us. It was a tough job but we kept good attitudes and we got it done early, giving us time to set up furniture and fold your rented moving blankets. We really do appreciate you going above and beyond to tell others what a great service you received.

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.
