Customers Trust MovingPlace
These guys are amazing!! Ryan and Norman did an excellent job packing my pod! They finished an earlier job and called to see if they could arrive before they were scheduled on the day of our appointment. Since the pod was already delivered and waiting, I welcomed the earlier arrival time. They were friendly, respectful and considerate of my instructions. They worked quickly and efficiently. I also asked them to help me move some donations for a charity pickup outside and they happily obliged. I’d give them 10 stars if I could. Thank you Ryan and Norman and ARMS (Always Reliable Moving Specialists). You made my day!!

Anthony, Wes and Damon from Goodlife Movers were easily the best movers we have ever had. They loaded our PODs quickly and highly efficiently. In addition, they were extraordinarily careful in moving large and heavy items out of the house and into the PODS to avoid damaging them or our property. What more could anyone ask for. Worth every penny. I wish all movers were this good!

If I could give them 10 stars, I would. They came on time and set right to work. They worked really hard all day, and worked really well. I needed to move furniture and boxes into a POD and the way they did it was incredible. They fit everything together like a 3D puzzle so that things wouldn't shift when it's moved. They were super careful, didn't bang into things or scratch anything. And they were incredibly pleasant and nice guys. I recommend Right Budget Labor Service very highly and would definitely, definitely use them again.

Smooth Ride Movers arrived earlier than the scheduled time. They contacted me stating they were available at an earlier time and awaited my arrival. They did an excellent job at moving all my furniture up 3 flights of stairs and placing everything where it needed to be. They were quick and efficient. They were done moving 2 couches, mattress, bed spring, coffee table, dresser, rug, 2 boxes, and a suitcase in under an hour. This was my first time using any sort of moving company and I would highly recommend Smooth Ride Movers!!

Movers | Efficient Moving Labor
They were early, but I was not home yet. They did not work particularly hard. They were slow. One of the men was on his phone texting the entire time. He would put the phone down and fold some packing paper or unwrap one object and then pick upi the phone again. They were respectful but I would NOT use them for unpacking again.

Movers | Q's Moving Corp
We used Marvin and his friend to move a very heavy couch out of our house. The movers had so much trouble originally getting it in years before, we were worried that we'd never be able to get it out. Well, Marvin got that couch out in no time and didn't even touch a wall on his way out! He and his friend were friendly, funny and very careful. We would not hesitate to use him again or recommend him to others!
