He was late and my four movers and I had to wait to start as I was hiring him for his expertise of packing the pod. He was not as knowledgeable as I had hoped, however he was a very nice person and friendly.

Mover's response:
Your mover was 30 mins late which you were called over 2hrs before hand to let you know his first job ran over and you were fine. We finished the job in 1 hour and the mover you had has loaded hundreds of pods and is very knowledgeable in loading them. I'm sorry you felt that he wasn't skilled at packing your pod.

These guys were super. My POD delivery did not go as planned so they drove to the POD place and loaded my stuff from the POD into their moving truck. I got my stuff on the day I'd planned (and taken off work) with their help. I really appreciated their flexibility, And, they were very professional; they knew how to load and unload the PODs. I cannot say enough good things about them.

The two helpers arrived on time and were very courteous and respectful and also hard working. The container was packed expertly and they were obviously experienced. I plan on using the help again in the near future. Thank you.

These two guys were non stop tetris experts. I got their names and will try to go get them to unpack my POD. Thanks.

Moo & Abraham were fantastic! They made loading 80+ heavy boxes along with some furniture look easy. Such polite gentlemen who called to ask if OK to come 1/2 hr early. Worked for 2 hrs. and got a job done that husband and self would require days to accomplish. Professionals with a great attitude. Thank you Helpful Movers!.
