We used Hire A Helper for a small-medium job moving one person out of an apartment and loading everything into a van. We used two people for a two hour window. It was easy to communicate via text. The team was on time. They were efficient, helpful, and capable. They worked efficiently and well together as a team. They were careful with our possessions. They packed the van carefully. Great service, we would use Hire A Helper again.
