Totally awesome move and I’ve had a few moves that weren’t hire so good. The movers were on time, considerate and very friendly. I have another pod coming tomorrow and they were already booked. I won’t hesitate to call them again or refer them.

Mover's response:
Thank you for taking the time to leave us this shining review. We truly appreciate your business.

Timothy and Thomas were amazing and worked very hard and efficiently together. They were meticulous and able to fit everything in the pod. Which believe me, was no easy feat!
They were both very personable and professional. I would highly recommend their service to anyone! I couldn’t have moved without them. Thank you for your hard work!

(4) 5/29/2024 Dunnellon

They were early and gave me a discount because of it. They weren’t in a uniform with names so can’t remember their names. They did work hard however, they weren’t gonna take my tv’s (2) because they weren’t in the boxes I had provided for them. I wasn’t able to do that myself. They did finally box them and put in the pod.

Mover's response:
We apologize that our uniform shirts don't have our names printed on them, we have done that before in the past and now you've got me regretting not doing it last time we ordered. Our policy states that we do not move unboxed electronics especially tvs. Once we knew that you had tv boxes and just needed help packing the tvs we took care of it. We are happy to hear that everything went smoothly.

(5) 6/4/2024 Haines City

These guys were on time, considerate, very mannerly, friendly and Quick! Unloaded a full 27 foot truck in under two hours!
The friendly factor was a win for me. We have dealt with other movers who barely spoke to us, let alone say thank you or you’re welcome. I cannot recommend Timothy and Thomas enough. What a great team!!

Mover's response:
We appreciate your kind review. As stated on our profile, our movers are personable and professional. We understand what it takes to put out customers at ease during one of the most stressful tasks of their lives and we always engage with our customers.

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.
