At first only two workers came but then three... They worked well and got done sooner than we expected.

The two men who unloaded the moving POD were energetic, hard working and efficient. The furniture was being moved to the 3rd floor. It was a warm day, about 90 degrees, however this did not not slow these two down. I highly recommend this service!

The communication from HireAHelper was good, they did call a day ahead to discuss a scheduling snafu. Dave and Bay were fantastic, worked quickly, and took care with the items moved. They were very personable, respectful and friendly. I would use them again.

These guys were on time, prepared for the job, worked hard, were respectful and even made a 2nd trip back to the 1st location, when I realized I'd miss packed something. They are were great! I'd definitely use again.

We had requested four movers. They were really nice, very polite and respectful. they made sure not to damage any of the items and was very careful in moving our furniture store, etc. I would definitely use them again. They were on time and got right to work and even introduced themselves to us. I am definitely a happy customer. - Kanya B.

Brian and Jeremy were top notch. Smart and hard working. They were a big help to us and offered sound advice for item placement as well.

Our movers were great. They complimented us on the fact that we were so organized and when we got to the new house our male Shiba got our and got hit by a car..he got up and started running however the movers saw the accident and told us that he (our dog) flew about 13 ft. and they looked him over and were truly concerned about him. Took him to the vet, he got very lucky. We appreciated not only their professionalism but also that they cared about our pups. I will recommend them if anyone needs movers.

(2) 6/18/2016 Olympia

They were 4 1/2 hours late. The two men were great, nice gentlemen. They lacked time management, organization skills. They were slow, and very hard on the belongings. After 4 hours they didn't even have half of my home completed..and it was already 8:30pm. I know they were working hard, and again..lovely gentlemen but they needed to have a better strategy.
