Great Lakes Mover Reviews
Our moving crew arrived right on time. They started to work immediately. I'm amazed at the speed with which they worked. These young men were so incredibly strong they made it look so easy to lift very heavy items. In three hours they unloaded our house into the PODS containers. Can't thank and praise them enough for their dedication to their job. They are PERFECTION.
Great job
This crew of 3 did an exceptional job. They started on arrival and did wonderful. Professional, courteous, and no nonsense. Can’t think of anything anyone could have done better.
Tyrone and Darnell were fantastic at keeping in touch doing the work and helping in every way. I would use them again if I move next time and I would highly recommend them. Thank you.
Fantastic help! super nice and positive guys to work with! Highly recommend them. Thanks so much!
Shamaiah's crew was truly the "A" Team. They were very considerate, careful, and efficient. All of them worked very hard in behalf of our needs. They worked overtime and I was glad to pay it. I was so impressed, I was compelled to to buy them lunch...they deserved it !!! Thank you! - Larry Olson
Thank you Kendrick and James for your service. They were polite, and treated my belongings with care. They worked as a team and made sure that everything fit into my POD in an efficient way. I appreciate all that they did, especially in the freezing cold weather (10 degrees). I wish them well!
Mike, Maurice, and Neal excelled in everything that was important to us. They communicated with us the day before the unloading to confirm the time. They were incredibly polite and cheerful, figured out how to get a heavy piece of furniture on a lower floor, took good care to wrap anything that needed wrapping, and cleaned up after the unloading. They were done in a timely manner. My advice is let them know what needs to be done and enjoy a cup of coffee. We will be recommending the trio to our friends that will be moving soon. And, if we ever move again, these are the guys!
These guys were great I love them would recommend 10 plus
The two men we had were amazing. I couldn’t have been happier. I would recommend this service to anyone who is moving!
From the owners personal response to the professional movers on site, I simply could not have ask for anymore. The special attention to our moving needs was handled without any questions. Non stop attitude from top to bottom throughout their entire time. Very professional, courteous and helpful throughout as well.
Couch Potatoes by far the best movers. I look forward to my next move so I can hire them again. I can’t thank them enough for making my move so easier.
I had two guys to unload a pod and move the items to my new apartment. They were polite, helpful and FAST! All my things arrived in good condition and they helped reassure me about the moving logistics of parking, unloading and the elevator. Would definitely use them again. Thanks!
John and his team are wonderful to work with. They are polite, patient, professional, knowledgeable and hard working. This is the second time working with Metro loading. I highly recommend John and his team. They make moving a pleasant experience.
Heaven Moving loaded my truck with precision and care. I have already used these guys on three separate trips, moving multiple family members to our new home town because I know I can trust them. When we were short of space, they took the time to plan how to load the truck, and found space. All the items were safe, and secured for the trip. If you need thoughtful, and skilled movers - you want Heaven Moving on your side!
The guys, Justin and Jamil were awesome! They efficiently handled the job and were very kind and polite. I would have these guys help again.
They arrived very late, but we were kept informed at all times. They worked very hard and still kept their smile and friendly manner. Our instructions were respected at all times (as us telling them where items should be brought to - they were unloading 3 "pods"). Great team!
They were incredibly helpful, they are at the very top of my list for movers.
Syed and his team did a nice job with our move
Quick, efficient and friendly!
Kurt and KJ did great job.
Good job.
These guys were amazing, personable, packed my POD very proficiently, and I enjoyed the interaction while they loaded my POD. I would definitely definitely recommend!! and we'll worth a great Tip. Thank You much. ??

This is literally my third move with S & L- they are always outstanding. Dameon and his partner were great. So fast and efficient. I was extremely pleased with their service today!!! I would absolutely recommend them and like I said I am a repeat customer!!!! Very knowledgeable and friendly staff. Thanks Dameon!!!
They were two hours late and if I didn’t call to find out why I don’t think I would have been informed. Once they did arrive they were super helpful and efficient
This is the second time we’ve used Promovers - both times were great! Kevin and Omar were wonderful. They were on time, careful with our boxes and furniture, and worked very quickly. We would definitely use them again!
This team was exceptional! I’ve never experienced more professional service from a moving company. I would recommend (and will recommend) this moving company to all of my friends and family. Thank you so much!
The two man crew were on time, and ready to load our POD. They walked around to survey what was to be moved and worked quickly and efficiently to load our pod taking precautions to protect our goods. They were friendly, respectful and curteous. I would certainly use them them again when needed.
These guys were awesome. They arrived on time and went right to work. They were skillful in how they loaded the pods and packed efficiently so I was able to eliminate one of the pods. I would definitely use them again.
They were polite, patient and professional and they packed my belongings up in my house safely and quickly t hen packed my stuff in my POD like Tetris masters!
Our two movers were great! They were on time, FAST, efficient, professional, and strong. No lift was too much for them. We had a staircase which was no problem for them. Would highly recommend.
They did an amazing job! Everything fit and I was skeptical. Trust them and let them do their job! Highly recommend and would hire again. Don’t be scared, hire help!!!
They dodged the raindrops and got everything to my second floor, apartment, efficiently and quickly. They were respectful and courteous, and helped me to set up my bedroom before they left. I would recommend Tyrone and his crew to anyone looking to have their belongings unloaded.
The team was awesome. Worked their butts off. They were patient with us and during the wait time for the next pod. They were true gentlemen with my sister and I. Thanks to them !!!
They were excellent, hard workers, they were very careful with my things, u was very expressed. I have very heavy furniture but they didn’t seem to struggle at all. You can tell they had plenty of years of experience moving. I would absolutely recommend. The way the young man communicated when he was on his way, very professional.
