Jay & Mel were excellant moving labor helpers. Clean, friendly and professional, on time, willing to pack things in my storage unit just as I wanted, while still making quick use of time. They could work intuitively and pick up on what I wanted without me having to explain everything. They treated my fragile items carefully and were strong enough to set down boxes marked Fragile with care. I would highly recommend them to anyone and most definately use them again.

They were fast and great to work with. I was concerned that the contents of our 5' x 10' storage unit might not fit into a 7' x 7' POD. They figured out how to fit everything so that we had 1/4 of the POD space still available. They were all very polite and accommodating. I hired them for 5 hours and they finished in 3 hours. Their manager sent us 2 additional helpers free of charge. I would definitely use them again.

Guys came outside the window but called to say they were running late. Somewhat more notice would have been appreciated as we were waiting around for several hours. Having said that, three very nice young men who were polite, careful, and hard working. Heavy furniture going up narrow staircase at the end of what was probably a very long day for them, but no complaints or bickering, and a lot of care to make sure no walls were scratched. Would definitely use them again.

Movers | Q's Moving Corp
This is the third time I've worked with Q's and they were great as usual! Hector and Will moved fast while being very careful with each piece and protecting it all very well. Definitely will work with them again.
— Jason J.
Movers | Q's Moving Corp
Second move using Q's and I was even more pleased than the first time. They showed up and got right to work and they were hustling to make sure we stayed within the time I had paid for. Unfortunately some glass shelves broke in the process, but this is actually where they went from great to excellent. They assured me it would be taken care of, they took pictures, and management called first thing the next day to assure me everything would be covered and even offered to have the glass made and delivered. I emailed them the quote I received from my local glazier and I got the check in the mail two days later! That was a real testament to the quality of this company. Definitely would work with them again.

Movers | Q's Moving Corp
I needed help with moving several large, heavy bedroom pieces and some heavy boxes. Movers For A Cause carefully moved the pieces right were I needed them to be. They had a great attitude and were very easy to work with them. I know that I will have more items to be moved this summer and with certainly be calling them back!
