The two men you sent were excellent. They arrived on time and took very good care transferring my furniture from the Pod to the house. As a bonus, once the work was done, they were very pleasant to talk to as we had a few things in common. Good hardworking guys !

I remember I was supposed to have and paid for them having stuff for wrapping up my material. They had nothing. I had to use my ratchet straps and I they didn’t have any blankets. They didn’t have anything to cover my stuff, and I thought that was included in the price. Am I gonna be getting a discount on this because I supplied the blanket one blanket and I’ve got some other ones that I’m going to be using were they supposed to be bringing the stuff?

Minutemen is the ****. They hustled and did a great job maximizing the space in their truck, and they were careful with our belongings. The movers were great to work with and we had some pleasant conversation. I’d use them again in a heartbeat!

I recently used 5 Star Movers for my move and I couldn’t be happier with the service I received. Zane and Mike were absolutely fantastic! They were professional, efficient, and took great care of all of my belongings. They made the entire process so easy and stress-free. I would highly recommend 5 Star Movers to anyone looking for a moving company, and I would especially recommend Zane and Mike as they went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. Thank you so much for all of your hard work!” ??????????

I hired to help unload a 20 ft container. I was very happy with the job and would recommend 5-star Movers. They were very punctual, and all four hired helpers arrived early to the job. They had all the equipment needed, including set up tools, even though I hadn't planned on set up help. When the container was done, they continued to help unload vehicles and set up our funiture, which I had not planned for. Our moving day went much better than planned with their help.

They were here on time & worked hard the whole while they were here-very efficient! It is a super hot day but that did not slow them down. They knew just how to fit the puzzle of furniture together in the pod! I would recommend them to anyone needing to use movers.

Mike and Eric worked very hard in particularly difficule circumstances; The U-Pack trailer serviced by ABF trucking. Our rental home is up a significant incline so we warned the trucking company of this difficulty so they might be prepared to provide as level an option as possible. Turned out the dirveway had wires hanging across it lower than the top of the truck so the driver was not allowed to come up the dirveway, regardless that they were not electric wires and that we had permission to lift the wires and keep them raised until the truck was retrieved after unloading. Consequently, the men from Mighty Mike's had a much harder job acquiring the loaded household goods than should have been. We used a pickup to ferry the goods up the 400 foot driveway in approximately a 30 degree incline to the house; an extra step no one bargined for. They were not able to completed the job in the estimated 4 hours and after paying for a 5th hour they were still not done. What remained were mostly the boxes which we felt we could manage without their help. They were anxious to assure they were not leaving us in a bind and were polite and worked without complaint; no standing around talking - just got the job done as best they could. No damage noted.

Ben and Mike were awesome - very professional arriving exactly on time and ready to go. Took time to review the overall house and plan and had great suggestions specific to my moving needs that helped a great deal. They worked very hard, took great care of our furniture and out of 4 hours only took one 5 minute break. I would recommend them through you group at any time... I will be absolutely using them again for part two of the POD load up this coming Friday that was booked through Hire A Helper. Thanks....Darrell

I cannot recommend Minutemen Haulers llc enough!! Sam and Shiv were on-time, professional, EXTREMELY HARD WORKING, courteous, and went ABOVE AND BEYOND to pack my 26 foot truck for my move. They packed my belongings like a game of Tetris, maximizing every square inch. STOP LOOKING at other reviews for moving companies - book with Minutemen Haulers!!!

The movers were professional, courteous, and on-time. I had underestimated the amount of furniture I needed moved and had requested a truck that was too small. The movers worked with me and the condo management to make two trips to get moved. In addition, there were no extra charges for pads or dollies. I highly recommend GS Movers.
