Customers Trust MovingPlace

I had a 2-person team to pack an 8-foot container for a partial move. They arrived well on time and did an excellent job fitting a large number of items into this very limited space. I would always use them again.

Excellent Movers did an amazing job loading my storage container today. They graciously accommodated me with a later appointment time when I requested it, they arrived on-time within the appointment window, and they were incredibly efficient at loading a lot of belongings into what I thought was too small of a space. They proved me wrong! I highly recommend Excellent Movers and would give them a “10” rating if I could!

We cannot recommend Patriot One Movers enough! Frank and his team were amazing. Frank called me right away to confirm our move date. He was helpful in providing information and supplies. Our movers, Z and Romero, were super polite, and very careful in how they wrapped and handled all of our items. They packed our pod carefully and strategically. It was a relief that we'd found such a professional team to move our items in our pod. Thank you to the whole team for making our day go smoothly!

— Alexandra M.

Movers | Rigo's Moving & Storage, Inc

The movers were on time and efficient, and worked non stop for 7 hours. Although I did not closely monitor , I did observe care of our property and goods. I suggest an excess number of blankets for movers as this will decrease time needed to fully wrap furniture with stretch wrap.

We Chose these movers because Pod Recommended them . However, when the Pods arrived cross country, the doors were jammed. The load inside has shifted because they were not packed/tied off correctly. It took Pods Two hours to finally tilt the pods and free up the doors. The movers had ample tie downs and blankets but they were not used. (Pod was ready to cut holes into the units to get in and charge us for the damage). We are still unpacking and may have to put in a insurance claim. I would not recommend these movers again

The two gentlemen who moved our goods were courteous and quick, actually running with boxes, etc. They were on time. They handled our possesions with care. They finished 30 min. under the two hour limit. They were prepared for the job and we would undoubtedly use them again.

— Tom D W.

They showed up on time and were ready to work. The two of them kept busy the entire time, moving boxes and furniture to the truck and 'packing them in'. I had rented a 26 foot truck, thinking I had enough to fill it - when they were done, the last 10 feet of the truck weren't used (which was good, as I had more to pick up along the way). I definitely recommend them.
