I hired 3 guys to load my truck and they were phenomenal. They were friendly, hard working, and masters at packing a moving truck. I would highly recommend them to any of my friends.

The Guys were above and beyond, fast workers, polite, respectful, punctual. Superior packers, worth the price. If you're short on heavy lifters Hire A Helper can fill the need!

The guys from Helpful Movers were great! We've always done our own moves by ourselves or with a few friends. But this time we have more stuff than ever (blame the children) and not enough people available to help. So, we hired Helpful Movers and it was worth every penny. The 2 guys who came out showed up on time, got to work right away and did a much better job loading the truck than we would have. Totally worth it. We'll never move without a team like this in the future.

I had a poor experience with Helpful Movers. The movers who showed up were not very professional. They made inappropriate comments, they complained about the work and the pay, they pressured me to help to ensure they could get to their next job on time (we finished 20 minutes early) and they damaged a very expensive bed frame. I reached out to the owner to negotiate a price to compensate us for the damages. After coming to an agreement, he never sent the money or returned emails. I would not use Helpful Movers again.

Aaron & Dan showed up on time, they were highly efficient, super friendly/personable, packed the pod SO WELL & in general made a stressful move a lot easier.

The team arrived on time. Did a fantastic job of loading our PODS container. I would use them again.

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.
