The service was easy to schedule. They were timely and professional. They were hired originally for 3 hours to load my rental truck. Thankfully, they were available for extra time because they were not quite done. The job was bigger than I anticipated. Overall, great experience and I'm glad it is over.

I’ve used Hire A Helper before and all were good experiences but Rent The Help has been the very best. On time, ready to work, very polite professionals. I do recommend using 3 helpers over 2. It costs more but is well worth it.

Would absolutely use this service again. The helpers arrived on time and worked quickly, efficiently and safely to move my furniture and boxes. It was such a huge relief to get everything done without issue and I couldn’t be happier with the service.

Our guys love meeting new people and helping them navigate an extremely stressful time. Every day is a new adventure and we embrace that.
