Movers | Friday's Moving services
They were amazing, I'd recommend them to anyone moving and I'd certainly hire them again. They were exactly on-time, and they went above and beyond my expectations. I tasked them to move certain items, and they ended up moving so efficiently they were able to help me move additional items. And, despite the bedframe not being disassembled as I didn't realize it wouldn't be able to move in one piece, they took the time to carefully disassemble into pieces that they could move...and yeah they still had time to move additional items. Book them their service and price are unbeatable!

Movers | PROMOVE
I needed help loading a moving truck in Jersey City and was referred to On-Time Movers as a courtesy service offered during the rental truck reservation process. From start to finish, On-Time Movers showed exactly how they earned the high customer ratings they have. Leon and his team worked tirelessly. They were in contact with me prior to moving day and were also flexible with us due to an unforeseen last minute delay. Of course, they were definitely on-time the day of the move. They also knew exactly how to accomplish what was needed and loaded the truck so well that no damage occurred during a 700+ mile move. Suffice it to say I was impressed by On-Time Movers and highly recommend them to anyone who needs their services!
