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.

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.

These guys came and got right after it and we're done faster than I could believe and my pod was packed so I'm sure that when it gets to my new home everything will be just like it was. Can't recommend these guys as high as they deserve, five stars just isn't enough!

They were a little late because their first job of the day took longer. They finished the job in 45 minutes. They were respectful of my property, took care of home and helped with minor assembly. I would hire them again.

This is my third time using hire a helper service.The name of the company that helped me with my move is [Nick and Earl moving].The movers names are Ronnie and Manny..Wow, I can write a long paragraph about these’s guys but I don’t want to make it too long(Just get right to the meat and potatoes)..The time of my move was pushed back due to a job they were on and Ronnie called in advance to tell me and offer other options which I definitely appreciated.I didn’t mind the later time because I desperately needed my furniture to be delivered and assembled.Being a single mom of a busy three year old there was no way I would’ve been able to put anything together.Good God.I just want to let the public know Assembling is not a requirement for the movers.You can add tools on to your order but they’re not required to assemble anything but Ronnie and Manny did it for me without any problems.I truly appreciate everything and if you book this company(which you should) and you need your furniture assembled the least you can do is tip accordingly.Yes, I’m advocating for them to receive compensation because as I stated above.They don’t have to assemble.I most definitely recommend [Nick and Earl moving]and I plan on using them again in the future!!!Thank you guys so much again :-)
