Customers Trust MovingPlace

Dan and his brother (sorry, but I forgot his name) were amazing! They arrived promptly at the scheduled time, calling ahead to let us know they were coming, and came ready to work hard. They worked quickly and carefully and were very professional and polite. They even moved some things inside to make room for the unloaded boxes and equipment. They put everything exactly where we needed it to go, in an orderly and neat way. Definitely recommend them 100%.

The two Men did a great job. I would have them back anytime. If I had business cards I would give them to people looking for help. Ken Keys

Movers | The Moving Boys Labor Service

My first impression speaking with Korry was very good. He was polite and helpfully accommodating due to the storms encountered the day their service was scheduled. It was apparent the crew he sent were new, as they didn't know how to open the Upack Trailer bulkhead or drop the ramp. The team members were friendly and treated my belongings with care, they had arrive an hour late (without notification) and stopped at least two times in the two hour block for a cigarette break and or a bite to eat from their vehicles. Water, and "catching your breath" I understand. Eating (w/o medical necessity) and smoking breaks for a two hour job that turns into three hours is not appropriate.

Movers | FAST TRACK MOVING & STORAGE

Eric and Will rocked my pod unpacking. The communication from Bend and Lift Move was perfect, sent text updates on status of the crew arrival, arrived on time. The crew was respectful and took instruction on location placement of furnishings with smiles. I even had to reschedule last minute and they accommodated my date and time request. I HIGHLY recommend them for your moving needs!

Movers | Bend Lift and Move LLC

On time and worked the whole time. Respectful of me, my wife and our belongings. Finished moving the items I needed moved out of the house within an hour and twenty minutes. Spent twenty minutes more helping us move totes upstairs. Hope that the same two men are available when time to return everything to the house.

— James H.

Movers | Perkins Packing & Moving

These guys were great. Noy only on time but even a few minutes early. There were very careful with our furniture, worked hard the entire 2 hours and were polite. This is our 7th move and by far, these 2 were the best!!!

Movers | All Around Movers

They were excellent in their work and i will definitely use them again!

— Orlanda W.

Movers | Already There Shipping

Very curteous and helpful. No task too great (and my truck to house was a task). They checked where things should go and put them in their place - most people would just bring the items in and call it done. Hard working men, on time - called when they were just minutes out to give me a heads up. I would definately recommend them to anyone and will be using them again in the future when our family is in need of relocating (again).
