Customers Trust MovingPlace

They were on time. They cared about protecting your furniture and delicate items. They worked fast and are very strong for the heaviest dressers and appliances. I would use them again in a heartbeat!

This is the third time I have used hire-a-helper. Once in Jersey and twice in Illinois. I would recommend them to anyone unwilling or incapable of doing the loading and unloading themselves. All were on time, fast, efficient and well worth the cost.

Movers | Logan Lift Express

Shamaiah Ross and her crew from MoveMasters worked diligently and meticulously loaded the furniture and documents from a four room law office suite into two 16 foot PODS containers in just under half a day. They arrived on time, put together about 75 boxes of legal paperwork, printing equipment, and office kitchen mugs and miscellaneous tools, and carefully packed them away inside the two PODS containers for storage , at the end of our office lease, after ownership of the building changed hands. The situation was complicated by the fact there is no elevator in the building, and everything had to be hand carried down a fight of stairs to ground level before being loaded into the storage containers. The movers carefully disassembled two desks, nine bookcases, and an eight foot conference room table to fit al the furniture to the storage PODS.

They did a good job, but when they were putting the refrigerator into the truck it slipped and both sides have huge dents and scratches in them. I don’t feel I should pay what I paid because of that. We are going to have to buy a new refrigerator now. Other than that they did a nice job, but there should be some recourse for the damage they did to my refrigerator.
