Alex was the key to our successful move from the CubeSmart in Gainesville, into 3 PackRat containers for shipping to our new home. Even though they lost a team member due to injury, Alex walked our units and directed the other 3 team members the order of loading items. Then he assumed the position of load master. When loading slowed, he became the cheerleader that lifted spirits of the team which quickly reacted by resuming the load pace. Everyone worked quickly, efficiently, and in a coordinated method. No one on the team took brakes or made phone calls until the last item was loaded. I cannot begin to express my satisfaction and admiration for the manner in which these movers work, and I highly recommend this company for anyone who need help moving. They even changed the way they loaded a few of my wife's prized possessions and seemed happy to do it. Thank you Step by Step Logistics. I have already recommended them to friends and the manager at CubeSmart asked for their business cards after expressing how much better this company worked, compared the other movers she has witnessed. Kudos.

I recently had the pleasure of using Moonlight Movers for packing my POD storage unit, and I must say, I am thoroughly impressed with their exceptional service and efficient packing skills. From start to finish, the entire experience was smooth, professional, and stress-free. The team at Moonlight Movers arrived promptly on the scheduled day and wasted no time getting to work. They were friendly, courteous, and handled all my belongings with the utmost care. It was evident that they were experienced professionals who knew exactly how to pack and organize items to maximize space while ensuring their safety during transit. What impressed me the most was their remarkable efficiency. They worked diligently, utilizing every inch of available space in the POD without compromising the integrity of my belongings. They expertly wrapped fragile items, stacked boxes strategically, and secured everything tightly to prevent any shifting or damage. If you are looking for a reliable and top-notch moving and packing company, Moonlight Movers is the one to choose.

Alex and his helper from step by step logistics provided excellent and courteous service.
