They were wonderful to work with. My POD door was stuck and they were able to open it. Highly recommend!

(5) 11/25/2018 Port Orchard

I told them that it may take awhile to unload the Pods, and I'd book additional hours if necessary. Because of this, they brought an extra person and got it finished fast! They were all careful with everything, even if it didn't say "fragile" on the box, and asked repeatedly where things go so they would put things on the right floor of the house.

I work nights, so I was pretty spacy when they arrived. They were very understanding and patient, saying that if they put anything in the wrong place, please tell them so they could move it again.

Great attention to detail. Highly recommend, and will hire again if needed.

The movers were on time, they worked hard to move my things in the time allotted, they were great. I would use them again.

Hello,

The guys worked very hard and stayed positive throughout the loading. I rate an A+ for effort, D+ for moving aptitude and common sense. Thinks took much longer than they should. Packing could have been better to get more in the pods.

Best regards,

They were on time.
I used the same two guys twice on my move since I had 2 locations to load. They worked hard and made good use of their time. Very personable men, we liked them very much. We would recommend them. A+ for Helpful Movers and James Akers the contact person.

The two guys that helped me unload my 16' POD were friendly, efficient and professional. They showed up on-time and completed all the work in the 2 hour window I requested. It was one less thing I had to worry about during my move; much appreciated!
