These guys were awesome! Super friendly and really good at letting the customer decide how “involved” they want to be in their move. (I hate just sitting around watching other people work, and they were so kind to give me tasks where I could feel helpful but not get in the way.) They worked fast and got me totally moved out of the storage pod and into my two bedroom new house in just over 3 hours. (That includes the 30 min travel time). I had used the Hire a Helper time/labor estimate and it had recommended 5 hours.

I had 3 wonderful moves( Taequan, Eric, Dom) . They are arrived in time and finished promptly 40 min ahead of schedule end time. Load a 2 bedroom condominium efficiently. Team was very professional, called ahead with a ETA time and were careful with sensitive items as well as spaced out truck carefully to ensure all items were organized. They worked well and never hesitated to ask any questions. Overall stellar service , introduced them to my neighbors who inquired as they finished packing and will certainly refer them to anyone . Wish the them continued success and appreciated their friendliness, and professionalism. Their boss should be very lucky to have them . Any customer will be very satisfied with their work ethic and efficiency. Thanks, Rose M.

Arrived a little ahead of scheduled arrival time. They worked constantly from time of arrival to departure. Did a good job of not scraping/marking walls when moving large items. Were not attentive to handling fragile items or room locations clearly marked on boxes. Did not follow my request to use the front door only for entry and exit.
