We used Come on I Wanna Move Ya/Hire a Helper twice in one week. The communication on both occasions was great. On the first visit, Colby and Steve were on time, very professional, worked hard and made quick work of unloading the Pod. On the second visit, Angela let us know that because of the weather they would be delayed about an hour in arrival and that there would be 3 people instead of 2 to make up for the delay. This was above and beyond necessary. Even with the delay Colby, Steve and Angela finished unloading the second Pod within the original time window. They were prompt, professional, hardworking and very respectful of my house and belongings. I would highly recommend Come on I Wanna Move Ya/Hire a Helper, Colby, Steve and Angela.

Best people to work with! We appreciated their care over the house and how careful they were to move in items to our house. No issues with doorways or even scratches on furniture, they were awesome! Personable and friendly, but also efficient and fast at moving items in the time frame we hired them for. Highly recommended!
