We used Helpful Movers a few years ago and had major issues. When they popped up on Hire a Helper for this service request, we decided to give them another chance because James was very pleasant, apologetic and made things right the first time we used them.
So for this visit, the communication was excellent. The guys arrived on time, worked hard and consistently, took great care of our belongings. They were very pleasant and thorough. So an awesome experience the second time around. I would recommend Helpful Movers and will use them again in the future.

The movers were on time. They were very nice and followed directions perfectly as far as which rooms to place items. They had to move very awkward pieces of furniture upstairs which I was impressed. I would have given a 5 star rating except for 1 thing. They knocked a chunk of a lower part of a corner of a wall upstairs later in the move which wouldn't have bothered me except they didn't tell me and tried to hide it by throwing away the pieces which I found next to the trash can in the master bath, very disappointing. I would have been very understanding about it if they had told me, again, some of the furniture were very awkward.

We had a very small moving pod and a lot of things to fit in it! Our movers arrived on time and were prepared to help us with our seemingly impossible tasks. They were efficient, friendly, and clearly knew what they were doing. They were careful with our belongings and were able to fit MUCH more into our POD then we expected! Not to mention they finished packing in half the time that was expected. Would recommend x100000!

How should a customer prepare for moving day?

The best way to prepare for your move is always organization, having walkways cleared for the movers so as not to trip over anything.
