Jorge and his team were AMAZING. Not only were they helpful when we needed to reschedule, they were extremely efficient, professional and great to work with. Honestly, the best movers we've ever had. And cool dudes, which makes it even better.

George and Jose were a pleasure to deal with. They were on time, prepared, and really knew what they were doing. They stayed several hours over what I had asked them for and did whatever I needed. Bonus, first move I ever had with nothing broken and multiple delivery stops! I have moved probably 14 times in the last 15 years including four states and I am happy to say you can't find a better mover then Thunderhorse!

Mover's response:
thank for your review justin! you are the best!

The two movers who packed our rental truck were great! They came at the scheduled time. They were pleasant and knowledgable and it was obvious that they were experienced loading and securing the contents of a truck. They worked quickly and carefully and finished within the 2 hours we had scheduled. We are happy that we chose Thunderhorse Moving and would definitely use their services again.

Mover's response:
thank you for your review dough clark! we appreciate your business

I asked two of them to help load a two story townhouse onto a truck. They showed up early. They handled all of the horrid heavy items cheerfully and packed that truck nice and tight. They carefully wrapped my stuff and (fingers crossed) so far I have not found anything broken...(but I'm still unpacking, Mr. Insurance Guy.)

A couple big wood pieces got minor rubs of the finish which I can easily fix, even though the pieces were wrapped in plastic. Note to self and other people moving: get extra furniture blankets for the corners and edges of all wooden furniture.

I would certainly use these guys again! Thanks!

Mover's response:
thank you diana! it was a pleasure helping you with your move.
