Team showed up and got to work right away. Most of the heavy stuff was either going upstairs or down into the basement and they handled it professionally. My wife had a method for organizing the boxes, and they took care to make sure the right boxes went into the right piles. As time was pretty much out, they still offered to help put together a table. Would definitely use again--thanks!
