Our movers, Bob and John, were excellent. They arrived on time, and even called me a couple hours prior to offer to come earlier if we happened to arrive with our moving truck sooner than expected. They began working right away and were very quick and efficient; they finished unloading the whole moving truck and car well within the 2 hour time allotted. They went above and beyond to figure out logistics of how to get a large piece of furniture through a slim stairway, which I am very grateful for. Worth every penny, and would highly recommend :)

Carlos led the team of movers very successfully and was very knowledgeable on the best ways to handle furniture with care. Unfortunately the legs on one of our pieces of furniture did break off but the piece was relatively flimsy and Carlos gave me some tips on easy ways to fix the issue. I would recommend this team and I would use them again, given their price. I felt like the team did a great job. My 16-foot pod was empty in nearly an hour, despite expecting 2 hours.

They were a little late but did call ahead to say so. We ordered 4 movers but there were only 3. DID NOT MATTER! This team worked extremely hard, were efficient (completed the job way under that max time), they were careful, considerant, and respectful towards ourselves and our belongings. We would completely hire them again if needed and recommend to others.

Joe and his crew did a great job moving our household goods. They packed everything very securely and nothing was damaged during the move. There where some challenging pieces, but they wrapped them very securely. And they also handled a very heavy item very professionally. When we arrived at our destination, they reassembled the beds just right. Good job!
