They were on time but I was a little late with the moving truck. They started to bring the items downstairs and staged it. Quick and efficient even in hot temperatures. Great work.

This is the second time we have used Marion Movers. First time was two years ago to unload the truck, when my daughter moved to Iowa City for grad school. When we needed movers to load the truck to move her out of her apartment, this was the first call we made. The crew was on time and did a stellar job. Would highly recommend Marion movers for any of your moving needs.

Both guys did a fantastic job and cleared the apartment within an hour and a half. Very nice, professional, and I would use them again, if I ever get back to Iowa city.

We hired MARION MOVERS to unload a moving truck. The crew arrived promptly. They worked hard, were courteous and finished unloading the truck with my daughter's one bedroom apartment furnishings in two hours. They put the bed frame and sectional couch together with no problems. I would highly recommend MARION MOVERS. I'm keeping their information for when my daughter is finished with grad school and needs to move again!

The team who arrived to help unload my storage unit worked efficiently and did take care of my items. Communication prior to the appoint was not ideal and took several phone calls back and forth as estimated time of arrival kept changing.

I ask them to load specific items, which they did in an organized manner. They made suggestions on preparing our items for safe travels. Alerted us to the ending work time asking what else we needed done. They had completely filled 12 ft of our 16 ft POD and roped it off for us. The remaining length of the POD we’ll use for personal last in, first out items. Jason and helper were great in communicating with us leading up to their arrival.

Ray and his team did an excellent job unloading our moving truck into our new house. I've never seen someone so deftly manuever a full sofa down a set of basement steps before. Very professional and careful with our things -- and also just nice to work with.

Our 2 helpers were courteous, respectful, and efficient. I thought I needed them to unload our 26 foot U-haul truck in 4 hours, but they had it unloaded in 2. I recommend Campus Bellhops to anyone and I would definitely use this service again if needed!
