Ismail and his helper did a terrific job fitting everything tightly into our 16 ft. POD. They completed the job in 3 hours as predicted. They used our packing blankets and wrap to ensure our furnishings stay safe. I will request Ismail when we unpack in 12+ months.

I worked with such a lovely young man - he was a wonder. In just a couple hours, he got the entire storage unit moved into the truck by himself (for some reason, the second hired worker didn't arrive until the second stop). When we arrived, they moved everything in quickly and with great efficiency. I'd definitely hire them again!
