Danny and Shawn did an excellent job moving a 26 ft truck full of furniture. They pack everything in without a problem. I would recommend them both anytime. Very good communication!

We had a wonderful experience with BingServ. The three gentlemen who unloaded our moving trailer were very considerate of all of our furniture and belongings. They were very polite and completed the job quickly and efficiently. I would highly recommend BingServ

We have moved 5 times in the past two years and this was the absolute best loading job ever done! The POD was too small for all of our possessions however it was packed so well we only need a small trailer to take what would not fit. Every care was taken with our furniture and Dan explained how they were packing to fit as much as possible many times. GREAT JOB!!!
