Dwight contacted me and ensured all of the information was correct. He was extremely helpful, professional and friendly. The two helpers, Devon and Leslie, arrived at the predetermined time ready to work. Both gentlemen were very professional and kind. They used great care moving the items and placing them on the truck to ensure we made one trip. I can’t compliment Devon and Leslie enough. I would not hesitate recommending them if anyone needs help. They are great workers!!

The movers were hired to load heavy furniture and a refrigerator into a large POD trailer. Tom and Jay, were right on-time (despite the frigid temp 14°F and recent snowstorm). They worked together very efficiently and protected all the heavy and fragile items expertly. Very personable and answered all questions. Completed the task within the time allotted. Would definitely use them again. Really appreciate all of their help in a long distance move.

These guys were terrific! Not only did they work incredibly hard, they RE-moved (without complaint) all the items the forgetful homeowner (me) had neglected to label with a destination. They slogged through the snow to put things in an outbuilding where they would be stored until we had a garage/workshop built. They also helped put back together an antique table whose legs had mistakenly been removed by movers at the other house - a not-inconsiderable task, it turned out. We have already hired them again to do the last load in a week or so. Can' recommend them highly enough.

Movers | Asap Movers

Exceptional!!! Thank you so much for being personable, professional and precise in approach of unloading that honored me and the community at large with minimal use of elevator; attentive to asking where I might want things placed, and for me, the extra mile of re-moving items to different positions and taking care of notable trash. Thank you so very much!!! Accomplished job in 1.5hrs! Well done!!! Blessings to you all, /Rev Dr Deb
