I hired Abe Lincoln Movers, LLC for an eviction, and they were excellent. They were clearly experienced with eviction procedures, followed the necessary protocols, and worked quickly and efficiently once cleared to begin. Communication was excellent. The owner reached out immediately after the booking and confirmed everything in a timely manner. The team was professional, organized, and handled a difficult situation with ease. I would absolutely recommend them and would not hesitate to use them again.

Overall the guys did a real good job but there someone slid a box on the wood floor instead of picking it up and caused damage to the floor. Accidents happen so I don't want to give them a bad rating. The issue I have is Mario said he would get back to me about it and make it right but never did.
