They were outrageously good. Loaded a whole houseful of furniture in less than two hours and at the same time were careful and considerate of the furniture. I would recommend them to anyone who needs movers.

I had scheduled two helpers for 10:30. It was garbage day and when I went out to get the cans at 10:15 they were in their car waiting to get started. They moved all the furniture and packed in the Pods. They finished in less than two hours. Good work by two strong friendly young men.

I had the privilege to have Zack and Abraham work for me. I must say that I have never seen a harder working pair of men in a very long time. There were non stop and did not have not one negative thing to say. If they are indicative of the caliber of workers your company has. Then my hats off to you. They were on time and ROCKED it! Thank you so much!

The movers were on time but not very experienced in taking apart shelving and headboards. They did not have any basic tools like screwdrivers or hammers. They were respectful, and I appreciated them moving things slowly in order to take care of everything. I would use them again, especially as they gain more experience.

If you are looking for a professional moving company....I highly recommend Helpful Movers! I am extremely happy and satisfied with them and Abraham and Zach were simply amazing....I couldn’t have asked for a better team! They arrived early and went straight into work and worked 9hrs straight without taking a break or complaining! Thank you guys and I WILL definitely be using you all again!

Dave and Mu did an excellent job! From the time they arrived and introduced themselves to when they finished they were friendly, courteous, efficient, and extremely professional. They did an outstanding job, taking care with all of our household items. Dave and Mu are great representatives of Helpful Movers, and because of them, we highly recommend Hire a Helper services.
