The guys at Cape Fear Provisioners were AMAZING! Rob was a great crew lead and ensured everything ran smoothly. They were efficient and professional and, as a female who was managing my family's move alone, they made me feel very comfortable. They even helped me assemble a table that was disassembled when being packed. I would recommend this company to anyone moving in the Wilmington, NC area!
