Carlton’s crew did an outstanding job unloading our furniture. They were careful not to damage the furniture and the walls when moving in large and small items. I highly recommend this company.

TERRIBLE, INEXPERIENCED, UNPREPARED, would NEVER use again. They were slow, did not work hard... nearly all the time, one of them would be working and the other two just standing by watching instead of working and at the end they claimed they had gone over the 2hr mark and charged me an extra half hour. They are clearly not professionals as they left lots of space between items not knowing how to pack a POD so we had to rearrange things once they were gone. They loaded half my HHG without packing and when I voiced concerns and asked them to wrap/pack my items beforehand they acted like they were inconvenienced. They also didn't bring anything with them except 1 dolly as if not knowing what loading a 3 bedroom house is like. They banged my brand new walls on several occasions twice right in front of my own eyes not paying attention walking in and out. They were disrespectful of my property dropping several things including my appliances because they were heavy and they were just two man carrying it as opposed to using straps, dolly... or any of the like.

Carlton and his crew did a magnificent job getting my items moved to a PODS storage. They were fast, efficient, and well organized. I plan to use them again and highly recommend their services.

Carlton and his team helped us on two separate jobs with unloading moving trucks. They worked hard and always asked if they weren’t sure where things were to be placed. They were careful with our items and with protecting the walls and doorways of the house. I would recommend them.

Carlton and his team did an excellent job! They were quick and effective while making sure not to damage anything. They also brought tools to disassemble my furniture. I highly recommend Carlton's Moving Company and will use them again in the future.

Carlton’s Moving Company was great to work with. They came on time and got straight to work. They packed my PODS container with care and even offered me shipping straps that I didn’t have to buy on my own. From the way that they packed my container, I knew that they were very experienced.

I would recommend this moving company to anyone that wants to make their moving experience hassle free!
