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.

— Judy H.

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.
