Fantastic experience and customer service. We were moving from Phoenix to Federal Way and had hired Helpful Movers to unload a trailer for us on 8/1/19. Along the way we realized we wouldn't be there until 8/2/19. I called and they were VERY accommodating and were able to us squeeze us in on 8/2/19. What a relief!

Our new home is on a VERY steep incline (25 steps up to the front door!!) AND a crazy steep driveway. It was hard but our amazing movers, Justin and Austin, took in stride and knocked it out quickly!!! Helpful Movers is fortunate to have 2 guys like them represent their company!!!

They were right on time and totally prepared! They were very careful with our furniture and home. The communication was great from the start to finish. We would absolutely use Helpful Movers again!!

Guys showed up on time and ready to work. They took great care with our items and were very careful manuring around the house. Do damage was done to the house or the items. They did not take a break until the job was finished. I would not hesitate to hire them again.

Erin and Derick were wonderful. Erin’s self described OCD did the trick. My POD was packed without an extra inch of unused space. I will definitely request them in the fire.

(2) 8/8/2019 Renton

I hired movers for two separate days. One day to load my stuff onto a truck and another to unload in my new place. Well the first set of movers were great! Very respectful and helpful. Did a FANTASTIC job and were super careful with my belongings. But the movers who unloaded were practically the opposite. So much of my furniture is now banged up and/or broken, chipped, missing pieces. They became upset and bad-tempered the minute the work began. I wish they could’ve sent the same movers who loaded all my stuff to unload it.
