They packed the truck to the brim and was sure to make sure our furniture was covered and protected. I would absolutely hire them again and recommended them to our friends who will be moving soon. The price was excellent as well.

My two helpers arrived on time, unloaded my packed Uhaul into my home and had time to spare. I had 2 items on the truck going to a house 4 doors away. The helpers went with me and unloaded into that home as well. And even though I didn’t expect it, Dot put together my bed!! After a long move from FL to NY and closing that day, the help was very much appreciated!! Thank you guys. I would recommend you to anyone needing moving assistance.

Daniel and Howard were great. Very prompt and prepared for the job. They asked questions to confirm placement of all our furniture and boxes and offered advice on how to best hook up our washer & dryer. Both were very professional and worked well around our older dogs who decided to nap in the middle of one room. We really appreciate their hard work!

We hired two helpers to help us unolad our moving truck. They called on the scheduled day to confirm our plans, and they arrived 10 minutes early to the job. They were very good and efficient workers and helped us unload our truck in just under the two hours allotted. Both helpers were friendly and professional. They treated our belongings with care and respect. I would highly recommend them and would definitely consider using them again.
