They let me know that they were running a bit late but it was ok with me. Carlton showed up with his apprentice which he did not have experience in moving furniture. I'm all about people wanting to learn but for goodness sake! They showed up with only a hand truck with a flat tire and a screwdriver. No furniture dolly, strap or wrap. The biggest/heaviest piece to move was the sofa recliner - one lifted the sofa from its side and leaned it on its legs and I could see the legs were bent. Carlton took a video when I mentioned that. They also thought that it could go through the front door without removing its legs - not the case. They put the sofa on its side and heard a "crunch". It told them to remove the legs, reluctantly he went into his car and got a brand new screwdriver still in its wrapper. My husband went and got his tools. Not sure if the recliner will be in working and stable condition when we unload the PODS. HireAHelper were notified. I would not recommend this company.
Even though you did not give us a fair shake from the start unfortunately. You & your husband were very rude & kept saying that you all heard a crack from the legs & that we scratched the floor there was no scratch nor break in the legs. You stated that we didn’t have wrap but that’s the only reason we lifted the couch up, was to wrap it. Once the feet was off the couch (Disassembled) I asked you where was the crack or break in the legs ? You then stated “maybe it wasn’t the legs but (maybe) something on the inside”.
Moreover we appreciate your feedback & hope your unload goes smoothly

These guys worked hard and took care not to damage my property or home. Communication was consistent and timely. Upon arrival they immediately went to work and used every minute working. Would hire again and highly recommend.

Carlton was professional, diligent in his care of items, and an absolute machine on a 96-degree summer day. He and an assistant moved 90% of the contents of a 2 br, 2 ba apartment around some tricky corners, down three flights of stairs, and packed them beautifully in a shipping container within two hours (as requested; things were already boxed and furniture had been broken down). Great communication beforehand. I highly recommend his services.

Excellent experience with Carlton and his crew! Respectful, on time, friendly and quickly completed the job that was asked!
I was very pleased!
Tomas J
Carlton and Devon were very communicative leading up to the appointment. They completed the job in a shorter than expected time & were very respectful with all of my belongings. They took the time to discuss, plan & stage items which could or couldn’t be stacked. My collection includes some very rare & expensive musical instruments, which were all treated with exceptional care. Their strength was extremely impressive, as they carried a nearly 300lb workbench up three flights of stairs and into my apartment with relative ease! 100% would recommend! Thank you Carlton’s Moving Company!
Jeffrey S
They were on time and used their time efficiently to load the heavy items I asked them to load. They forgot to bring several basic items like a drill (which I had to provide) and shrink wrap but overall did a good job. Would recommend.
Thank you again for your business. God bless.
