Yak did a great job. He helped us move everything out. Josh would not help with anything that didn’t go in the truck. The guys did a good job overall. If helpers won’t help move things to the dumpster your customers should know that before hiring.

Frank was amazing worker and would highly recommended him. The other worker had to leave early, but Frank still managed to pack most of the truck himself. We got an additional helper for unloading, and I would highly recommend Trey too. They came on time.

They were a little distracted and one was talking on the phone. I appreciated the help but it could have been better. Also, Thank goodness I brought my own Convertible Hand Truck and Dolly the job would not have been accomplished with out my own equipment.

There was one call out, so the team was down one for almost an hour. But they still got the job done in time. Hope the two who made it as scheduled get paid a little extra. They were super helpful about finishing up boxes I couldn’t because I ran out of tape.

I recently used Hire A Helper for a last-minute move and was connected with DMV Discount Moving & Cleaning—an outstanding experience from start to finish. Shortly after placing my order, they promptly reached out to confirm the reservation and gather any specific details. The following day, Tony and Terrel arrived 10 minutes early and immediately got to work unloading our 15' U-Haul. They handled our belongings with great care and ensured we were completely satisfied with their service. I highly recommend both Hire A Helper and DMV Discount Moving & Cleaning for anyone in need of reliable and efficient moving assistance.

Waulter and his associate moved my furniture in lightening speed and with the utmost care! One moment the apartment was full and the next it was empty. Both men worked carefully and silently. They loaded the truck placing items carefully and with precision. Nothing shifted during the move! Weather was stifling hot, but they pressed on quickly - not a single complaint. I highly recommend them for your move!
