(5) 10/21/2023 Ocala

They showed up on time, and were very respectful with my property and goods. Very personable and efficient. They came prepared and worked very hard. I would highly recommend them for all your moving needs.

Mover's response:
We truly value your remarks, Colleen. We've been doing this a long time and know that besides being personable and efficient, being prepared for the job is vital. Having proper equipment and a cooler full of cold waters goes a long way and if you've ever tried to do a move without the two then you know exactly where I'm coming from.

This team is absolutely amazing!! They work hard, they know how to care for your items and strategically pack a POD! I was so concerned my items would not fit, but they are expert packers. My items fit perfectly and were wrapped and cushioned and secured in the POD. Once delivered, everything was still in place and unharmed, to the amazement of the POD delivery driver. Don't hesitate to use this company!

Mover's response:
Prior Planning Prevents Poor Performance! You did great by getting all of the supplies we recommended, therefore, your move went off without a hitch. So glad you took our advice. By the way, thats definitely not the first time that I've heard that from a PODS delivery driver and I'm sure they see more messed up looking load jobs than us and that's saying a lot because we've seen some pretty shoddy loads in our 17 years in the industry-from customers as well as folks claiming to be professional!

They are amazing! They arrived on time, briefly surveyed all I had to load, and did the best packing job I’ve ever seen! They helped me with wrapping some delicate pieces, organized everything meticulously, managed to get my big heavy bike in and there’s still room for some items I didn’t have time to put in boxes. This was all in an 8’ x 8’ Pack Rat container. They made sure everything was tied down and so well secured, I am confident of it’s safe arrival at my new place. They are such an excellent team, they’re worth every penny and more!

Mover's response:
Sharon, we really appreciate your review. When I say we are the best this site has to offer, I'm not just tooting our horn. We are hands down the best pick available. Check out our pictures section below and compare our work to our competitors (the one's who actually have photos posted that is) and it will be an easy decision!

Tony and his wife did an excellent job of packing a POD for a long distance move. He knew just how to load properly making the best use of space. They wrapped furniture to protect it and knew just where to put things to best protect them. They had told me when I booked what supplies to have on hand, moving blankets, plastic wrap, etc. They were pleasant to work with and completed loading in agreed upon time. I needed 3 hours. Wish I could take them with me to unload! Best movers I have ever had!

Mover's response:
Wow, thanks, Linda. Reviews like this is what has kept us in this industry for 17 years and counting! We are proud to serve our customers. You make it all worth while.

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.
