Vlad and his team were professional, friendly, courteous, responsible and careful. Communication prior to arrival was good, they arrived on time, and spent EXACTLY the amount of time expected. I needed a pro to come in and handle dismantling furniture and packing the truck. They managed to pull a Tetris act and got all my stuff to fit into my 16' Penske truck. Not one thing broken during the move, they packed the truck with the utmost perfection. I only wish I had them on the receiving end! Highly recommend.

Our 3 man crew arrived promptly on time and ready to get to work immediately. They worked very hard and I was impressed with their initiative and dedication. We even had a wild fire that broke out causing our neighborhood to be evacuated while they were loading the truck and they worked right up until the end when I left the house and told them to leave for safety! I definitely recommend this crew.

Movers | Mach 1 Moving
They arrived as scheduled. They had come to replace other movers (from another company) that didn’t show up and were unreachable. They showed up at 2:00 and at 4:30 said that it was getting dark and that they don’t work in the dark, so left us with all of the remaining work and were already booked the next morning. They did a good job while there, but left us hanging and our move became a nightmare for us!!

The guys from SD247 movers were great! They communicated prior to the move day which was a nice assurance they would show up. They were very efficient with time and packing the uhaul truck we had which maximized space. Overall they did a great job, would recommend again!

Movers | Sd247movers
Andrew and Kadu were absolute life savers. They went above and beyond to help BEFORE we even moved by sending packing suggestions and and other tips and tricks. Andrew was incredibly communicative the entire time. Showed up promptly and worked their butts off! On the day of the move he was incredibly helpful, kind and made sure all of my needs were met, even those that I didn’t know I needed help with!! Our move would not have been as smooth or effortless without them and I can not express my gratitude. All of our things were moved with extreme care, like they were their items. I have already recommended them to friends and family and will continue to do so! Best movers EVER!!!!

On time, prepared with enough dollies, and highly competent, I loved working with Speed Loaders. I still don't know how they managed to get all my belongs in the truck. They are masters of tetris. Kind and professional, I would absolutely work with them again. Plus, after unloading nothing was broken. Wahoo!
