These guys were truly excellent and saved me an even bigger headache from a very hellish move. I requested them late on Saturday for next day service and sure enough they arrived with a helpful attitude and willingness to get things done. Very friendly, easy going, and I did not hear a single complaint even though my move wasn't organized very well and there was cat hair on everything. I couldn't have hoped for better helpers, so I would highly recommend Thunderhorse to anyone needing help with a move.

Mover's response:
we were happy to help with your move. Thank you for your feedback

The 4 gentlemen from Thunderhorse Moving were WONDERFUL! They arrived on time. They went directly to work, they did not waste anytime. I have moved 3 times in the past 17 years and this crew was the best I have ever used. Some of our furniture my wife had inherited from her grandmother. They handled it as if was their own!! I would not hesitate to hire them again!!

Mover's response:
Our movers were please to help you with your move Martin and now we are extremely thankful for your feedback.
Thank you for using our moving service.

I was expecting the crew at 9, and they arrived at 9:30; it wasn't too hot yet, so that was good. We managed to unload the PODS in less than an hour, since I needed help with the larger bulkier objects, such as a washer and dryer and my bed and a fridge. The three young men were very courteous and hard working, and did a good job. I would use them again if offered their services.

Mover's response:
Thank you for taking the time to review us, we depreciate the help.
