Excellent job by Prince Asong Movers. The 2 workers (Teddy & Ahmed) were very polite, kind and extremely hardworking. They didn't just empty my 16' POD they hustled throughout the entire job. They were responsive, on-time, careful, polite and hardworking. That's all you want from movers!!!
— Bob H.
Movers | Prince Asong Moving
Everyone was super friendly and super polite. They didn't pack the moving truck very well though and we had to repack it, things were loose, tv and a lightweight bookcase were laying on top of stuff not secured. I provided moving blankets and straps, the blankets weren't placed anywhere they would make a difference and they didn't use any straps. The owner was there at the start and at the completion, he seemed super knowledgeable I just wish he was around the whole time to help train the younger guys how to pack a moving truck safely while utilizing the space to it's maximum potential. I do accept part of the blame for not checking how things were packed as they were doing the loading. I was busy packing stuff and loading my car. When I did check at the end they had placed the mattress up and I couldn't see behind it so I assumed that everything was solid. So I do accept my part.

Jacob and Anderson arrived on time and went straight to work. They were very professional and polite and did an amazing job of fitting everything into the U-Haul we rented. They made sure they understood how many larger pieces of furniture and staged the truck accordingly. They were also very accommodating when we mistakenly asked them to load something and had to take it off. They were friendly and very helpful. We would definitely use these movers again.

Guys did everything we asked!. We had an issue with a table top...screws that they tried to unscrew broke off. Probably didn't need to take the table top off but I think I can fix with new screws. Lead guy knew his stuff and the other was a strong worker. Good pair. Ron

I liked getting a call with an estimated time of arrival, then once the team arrived everything went so quickly. I only had an 8' POD, and every box and piece of furniture was inside within the first hour, then they helped with building a piece of furniture and some final furniture moving.
