This was our second time hiring Helpful Movers. They helped us a year ago to unload boxes from our PODS and we liked them a lot and have asked them to help us for our new move again. This time, they helped us loading our rental truck and unloading at our new destination. They were great again. They came during the given arrival time frame, and made sure to call us ahead to give us ETA. Once arrived, they quickly assessed our truck size and amount of boxes/furniture, and packed them so they could all fit. We were worried we would need to do multiple trips, but at the end, they were able to fit everything. They worked tirelessly and were very professional. I would not hesitate asking them to help us again if we ever need to move, and would highly recommend them to anyone.

Hire a Helper sent a 3 man crew over to my home to load a Pods container. I wish I could name each of the crew but I don’t remember there names. These guys were great. They were on time, they worked exceptionally hard and were very polite and professional. They finished loading my container in less than the time that I paid for and most importantly didn’t damage anything. I would without any questions hire them again in the future. I have already told lots of people about them. I highly recommend this company Hire a Helper.
