The guys did an amazing job. On time, efficient, respectful, attentive and careful. They took a particularly difficult desk and got it out the door perfectly. I would highly recommend them for any size move. They packed our moving cube in such a way as to prevent any shifting in transit. Extra bonus.

I was fortunate to have Devon and his brother Tai on the job today. They were on time, polite, smooth and efficient. Also they were friendly, cooperative in any way, and were a delight to speak with and converse as the job progressed. We would recommend them without hesitation, and will ask for them for our next move; already have recommended them for a friend who is moving soon. Thanks, Michael Slater

If I could choose more than 5 stars, I would. I wish I could remember the young men’s names. They arrived exactly when they said they would and completed everything in just over a hour. They were both pleasant, friendly, fast and were able to do things much easier than I was expecting. I would 100% use Good Neighbors again and recommend them to anyone. Thank you, Good Neighbors, for making a stressful time so much easier.

Lucas was HUGE help. I had a 12x12 POD that was scheduled to be emptied at 4. They finished up their first job early and were able to finish my move by NOON! It was great, very communicative and accommodating to my situation. We only spoke on the phone but I’d recommend them to anyone moving soon.

I hired Kimiya Services last minute (7pm for a next day 11am move) after realizing I could not handle moving all my stuff myself and I truly could not have asked for a better move experience with them. I am so thankful they were able to accommodate a last minute job on a holiday weekend! Mel and Rob were awesome! They were friendly, professional and very efficient. I will 100% hire them again in the future!!

I had no issues with the movers overall. While they were 10 or 15 minutes late, they were willing to add that time on the back end of the reservation. Most importantly, they were efficient and also friendly. Would definitely recommend to others looking for moving assistance.
