I would definitely recommend MOVEMASTERS for your move. Our move involved loading our rented truck and we had a lot of small boxes and miscellaneous items along with the standard heavier furniture and we honestly didn’t think everything was going to fit on the truck. They handled the job with no problem, efficiently fitting everything in. They were on time, worked hard and were very respectful. I would definitely use them again.

Packed Moving Services Profile Image

Packed Moveing Services exceeded our expectations. The crew arrived on time and jumped right to work carefully prepping and loading our larger furntiure pieces into the POD. They never paused as they continued loading dozens of boxes, smaller furniture, bikes and more. These guys never slowed down... I got tired just watching them go at it with such high energy. Kendrick, Jose and Angel were all very personable and kept us informed of their activities all day long, trading questions and answers back and forth with us. Jose lived up to his nickname "Tetris Man" with the great job he did planning how to fit everything tightly into the POD. When the loading was done, they went back into the house and helped us straghten up. We also found David Martinez to be vert easy to deal with in setting up the move. We highly recommend Packed Moving Services to handle your POD packing and other moving needs.

5 stars for on time, worked really hard; great at organizing our stuff in the PODs. They were moving so fast they broke my grandma’s mirror that had sentimental value for me and dropped a brand new can of paint all over the driveway and didn’t say anything. Luckily it was water based and we could power wash it off (we were selling the house). Everything else was great and your customer service was fantastic!
