Movers | Maybaum Movers llc

I'd hire Samuel Services again in a heartbeat. The two movers arrived on time, worked non-stop moving the contents of our one-bedroom apartment down a flight of stairs, across the street into our new 2-bedroom up a flight of stairs. They were prepared with the hand trucks and furniture dolly we requested, but what was an added bonus was how respectful they were by being so quiet throughout that they didn't disturb our sleeping newborn!

— Richard S.

Gordon and his team did a great job, managing to unload a 24' truck into a 10' x 15' storage unit! They went above and beyond helping us with a stubborn trailer, too. They were friendly, courteous, and didn't complain once about the 94 degree heat. I would definitely recommend them!

Ready to work, no problems

— Dale P.

Movers | Utopia Movers

I was very pleased with the service provided by Henry Moving Company. I was not as please with the assistance provided by Hire a Helper because I didn't know how many movers and hours to request and I went with what the guy on the phone suggested, which was definitely not enough. I had intended to have the movers pack us up, and load everything into our POD (which also required unloading and rearranging some stuff that was in it already). Unfortunately, the process of rearranging the POD was so time consuming in and of itself that they were unable to help with the packing so I was desperately trying to get everything packed while they worked on the POD so they could carry it out for me. In the end, they made as much fit into that POD as could possibly fit, and I was very pleased with their effort to accommodate us as much as possible. They ensured that the majority of our stuff will be shipped for us, limited what we'll need to take in a U-Haul trailer. Even though I didn't get help with everything I needed, I can't blame that on the movers at all. They were great.

— Rachel G.
