The guy rearranging the truck did a really great job packing everything to keep it safe. Everyone else seemed to be in a hurry and seemed careless with our stuff. Our dresser was handled poorly and one of the legs is cracked and broken. A table leg was broken and there are several new scratches on our cedar chest. They worked quickly, but I would have appreciated a little more care with our belongings.

These movers did an outstanding job! We were so impressed at how carefully they packed our rental truck. They moved items like they were doing a puzzle. I couldn’t believe how well and how much they were able to fit in the truck. They were genuinely nice guys and happy to discuss how certain furniture should be handled. I’m grateful they were available to help and do all the heavy lifting and more. Mary

Fantastic crew! Really hard workers. But the most impressive thing was the packing of the truck. Filled it the brim, solid packed, with no room for movement. Extremely flexible. Would definitely use them again!

Super friendly and professional guys today! And very quick. They did a ton of work, a TON, in the extreme heat problem we're in the middle of, and these dudes were still so very friendly and good spirited! The friendliest and most enjoyable movers I've ever had. And I'm retired military, so I've used a lot of movers in my life.
