The packers did a good job and were careful with everything, but they did not bring any moving pads as I was promised by James so they had to wrap furniture with clear wrapping that fortunately I provided. I did not see that they tied off sections with rope, which I did have available. I'll have to wait until I unload the pod to see if everything was completely secure.

They were not on time. They were a half hour late. They were not prepared for the job. Came with no plastic wrap, no tape, nothing. My husband had to help them. They couldn't life the big stuff. That's what we hired them for. They were respectful. Absolutely not. Waste of money. Actually, I want a call from management.

My two helpers were both pleasant and basically did what I needed, but they did not seem to have any sense of urgency and that's important when the customer Is paying by the hour. Great job putting bed together for me. One helper was taking public transportation and arrived about an hour late. it was no problem for me and I didn't even want to mention it but it could have been an inconvenience for others. All in all they did OK.

These guys were great. They arrived on time and worked very efficiently to get the job done. They were careful with our furniture and took special care not to damage the floors and walls in our new home. I highly recommend them!

I have used this company twice now and both times I have had amazing service. On time, a job well done, and always hard workers. I even thought I booked my day and realized 2 hours prior that I had only quoted it. They were still able to get someone to me at the required time and they were amazing. I would totally recommend this company.
