Ambrose R
I definitely would recommend these guys, they we're in constant communication with me and coordinated their arrival with the arrival of the PODS Container. They arrived as promised and we're quite the efficient and speedy hard working little worker bees... Not a thing was damaged by them, though there was some damage to a couple of things that occurred during the transport of the PODS Container, items apparently shifted after it was loaded on the California end of things.
I give Iowa Moving 5 Star's! ?????
Thanks guys for all your help!

We hired 2 guys for 4 hours to load our 3 bedroom house into a 26’ truck. They arrived toward the end of the arrival window or shortly after due to a road closure in our area, which was not really an issue for us as they kept us informed over the phone. They ended up sending 3 guys and they finished in about 2 1/2 hours. The issues we had with their service were that they didn’t seem to handle our things with enough care when loading and didn’t pack things in a way to avoid damage to our furniture. It was raining the day we moved and they left our belongings out in the rain after they carried them out of our house and placed them in front of our garage instead of setting them inside the open garage doors to protect them. I can understand things getting wet as they are being carried out, but to leave them out deliberately to continue to get rained on seems negligent to me. This included chairs from our solid wood dining set, our sons jumper, etc. Both my husband and I also asked them to wrap our furniture with the furniture pads (I rented 5 dozen) and the plastic wrap I purchased for them to use and they mostly just draped the furniture pads over some of the pieces and then left others completely uncovered to rub against other items and/or the floor of the truck. There were several unused ones leftover at the end and almost all of the plastic wrap left, so it wasn’t a supply issue. Most of our furniture has dings and marks on it where the the finish has been worn away from this. For how much we paid (~$560 total) and the fact that they left an hour and a half early, I wish they would have slowed down and taken the time to do things right. I’ve only found one broken plate so far, but we’ll see how many other things are broken amongst our smaller possessions as well, since all of our fragile items weren’t placed in the front portion of the truck up top like they were supposed to and instead were mixed amongst and stacked underneath everything else in the main portion of the truck. I would not use them again or recommend them for anyone looking to move. I had a lot of hope based on the reviews I read here but am overall disappointed with the service we received. Had I known how great our unloading crew was (J & N Movers - Illinois) and that they can work outside their radius for a little extra, I would have booked them for the loading portion as well. They were cheaper than Iowa Moving 1 so it probably wouldn’t have really cost more in the end and they would have done a much better job based on our experience unloading with them where they tried to fix the mistakes our loading crew made as best as they could.

Both gentlemen were extremely friendly, very helpful, and fast. I couldn't be more pleased. Also, absolutely no damage occurred during the move into my new place.
They were on time, they were very prepared with the proper moving equipment, and worked very hard. I would certainly use them and your company again.
Thank you very much!

Great Job, I would highly recommend them.
Josh L
They were on time. They were not prepared for the job. They did not work hard, giving a hard time about asking to re-assemble simple furniture. They were asked to move an item three different times and never ended up moving it. Team lacks discipline and flexibility. Would not use again.
Lynn A
My appointment was confirmed prior to the move. My two helpers called about fifteen minutes before arriving at my home. They were on time and prepared to work. They were both professional and extremely helpful. I would definitely recommend them as I was very happy with their service.
Kim W
Arrived early and finished on time. Very accommodating with my dogs and cat.
Jeff S
I hired them to help unload a 27 foot Upack container. Solid experience overall. They showed up on time, were careful with everything, and were very efficient. I'd recommend to anyone needing help moving.
Jo E
Ryan and Grant and Patrick were FANTASTIC! Extremely professional and very cognizant of my wants and needs. They helped me get through a stressful day by adjusting their day to fit the hiccups in my POD placement. I would highly recommend Iowa Moving 1, LLC to anyone that needs moving assistance.
