Dirk and his crew showed up at the agreed on time. The crew was very professional. They went right to work. I showed them where everything was that had to be loaded and they worked non-stop. They came with tools to take apart furniture and hand trucks for easy moving. They made sure to wrap the furniture and lamps to ensure that nothing would break. Dirk was in the POD loading the boxes and furniture and he is very experienced. He packed the POD tight to ensure no shifting occurred. I highly recommend them.

Moved on 1.17.26 These guys are fast and efficient. Everything was neatly packed and in order. Lucas told me he’s been in business for 14 years and it shows. He definitely knows what he is doing. He’s very sharp! Just show him one time, or he’ll ask a question one time and that’s it. We moved on a cold and snowy day. No complaints about that from him and his team, they just expedited. Even though he had other jobs to get to, Lucas took the time to help me with my garage door. Thank you so much! Without a question, we will use Lucas and his team again if needed.
