Previously, I have worked with a number of Hired Helpers in Pennsylvania. They were all good groups. In the past 10 days, I engaged the services of Second Movers who operate under the Hired Helpers umbrella in North Carolina. In this time frame, three different teams were assigned to my three days of work. Amazingly, there was not a single person who did not pull his/her weight. They texted me that they were on the way, they arrived shortly BEFORE their actual time started, and they spent every single minute moving my furniture and other items out of PODS and into my new home which is up a 13-step flight of stairs. Moreover, they were very polite, very anxious to do whatever exactly as I wanted, and generally, very pleasant to be around. I could not have asked for 6 more highly responsible people to be sent to help me. I am a fan with a shoutout to Dawson, Leon, Jennifer, and crew. Great Job!!

After a hiccup with one of my PODS, my helpers for the scheduled day had to be canceled. I was on a deadline for PODS pick up, and the only day to unload was the day after original scheduled help. Tom was amazing and made it happen! My helpers showed up on time, they were professional, polite, and helped us to get the unload done. So very pleased and grateful. -Cristina R.

The workers arrived earlier upon request. They worked very hard and both were professional. The couch was the hardest item to place and they were able to remove the door. I would highly recommend this company.

The team was top notch! Cannot thank them enough for being so efficient and knowledgable. We were very impressed and VERY grateful. FYI- This was the first time we have ever hired movers because my husband is basically a pro mover from having done it so many times. But, we are older, and decided it would be nice to have some help this time around. They completely saved us...they were fun, and they got almost our whole truck emptied before a HUGE and scary thunderstorm came through. For their safety we stopped the moving process, but we didn't have much of anything left to get out of the truck so it was no big deal! SUPERB!!

Were they on time? They arrived exactly on time. Were they prepared for the job? They were ready to start immediately upon arrival and had all resources ready to be utilized. Did they work hard? They worked very hard, took zero breaks and were absolutely dedicated on loading all of my furniture and boxes carefully and thoughtfully, utilizing all the available space. Would you use them again? I would absolutely use them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a very professional moving team at a great price point.

My crew had one experienced member and the other was inexperienced. This made for a more unorganized effort with constant instruction about how to carefully move items which lead to overtime cost on my behalf.
