Helpers arrived right on time, ready to work. While they were capable of the job, and they worked steadily, they were young and inexperienced. Therefore, I had to add and pay for an additional hour of labor. One of the helpers seemed to wait for the other to direct his every move. Not sure if he had even done this kind of job before. Overall they got the job done, but paying the additional $110 definitely shouldn’t have been necessary for this particular job. Learned my lesson - always ask for EXPERIENCED helpers!

Aaron and Mark were our movers they came early moved all of our heavy items and furniture. They did an awesome job very professional and careful with my specialty furniture. They were finished with our stuff in an hour. My husband and I would hire this company and with Mark and Aaron again.

Dan and Mark (maybe Mike sorry) we’re AMAZING! Prompt, courteous, pleasant and awesome to work with. I would recommend the owners of the company invest in the over the shoulder furniture moving straps. It would have been a huge help with my oak furniture. The movers who put my stuff in storage and it was so much easier to move in tight places and up stairs.
