Very hard working. Excellent response. Friendly. Stayed with the job until the end. I'd highly recommend them.

Although vehicle trouble prevented their arrival, their prompt notification and immediate coordination with Hire-a-Helper to arrange an alternate moving crew was very professional. We had another crew on site two hours later, and our schedule was not impacted at all. Impressive handling of a potentially difficult problem.

Mover's response:
Thank you so much, Alan. A vehicle breakdown on a 90 mile trip was certainly difficult. As always, making sure that our customers are taken care of no matter the circumstances is our top priority.

These guys showed up on time, and they were prepared for the job! I have a very steep driveway and they had no problem getting everything to the truck. They worked fast while loading and unloading and handled everything with care. They even went a step farther and helped me put on the feet to my couch. I would recommend them to anyone who needs moving labor help.

Mover's response:
Thank you, Emily! We always appreciate feedback.

They were so pleasant. On time, jumped on the loading, show care about damage and damage during transport. I would without doubt use the fellows again, and finished ahead of time.

Mover's response:
Thank you, Roy! I'm glad we were able to assist you in a timely manner despite the terrible weather that day.

The Artful Mover was excellent. Arrived on time and ready to start. Provided all the necessary equipment and tools to get the job done. Did an excellent job and will use them again. Highly recommended.

I placed my order on the Hire A Helper website, and Wes the owner promptly confirmed my appointment. The Artful Mover crew showed up on time and were fantastic. Hard working, very polite, and no damage was done. I highly recommend this company and would not hesitate to use them again. Top notch and very professional. I am SO glad I chose this company over the others. A++++

Mover's response:
Thank you, Gayle. We hope you're enjoying the new home!

WORST- they moved everything into the Uhaul truck then bailed on me saying the boxes were too heavy and didn't unload! Stuck with a loaded down Uhaul trying to call friends to help. First, you are movers. If I could have lifted the boxes by myself- wouldn't need ya! Second, couldn't figure out how to arrange stuff to make the most room. You guys are movers, right? Me and my husband moved everything before but he's TDY so I had to get someone to move the heavy stuff. If you want to pay someone who's outta shape- these are your guys! By the way, if the boxes were too heavy, you shouldn't have moved them in the first place and left a woman to figure out how she's going to get them off.

Mover's response:
I would ask prospective customers to read all of our reviews. In a decade of professional moving I've never experienced anything like this. If you want your movers to load a truck and utilize space then you may want to let them make suggestions, or avoid improperly loading items before they even arrive. Nobody on our crew is remotely out of shape and the quality of our work speaks for itself. This move was dangerous and one of our crew members injured himself.

They did a great job on very short notice and they stayed late to finish.

Thank you, Julie!

Andy and Wes were a godsend! They showed on-time and were prepared to work. I didn't have to micromanage any of the task I gave them because they both were competent and inclined to get the job done fast, efficient and careful. A word of caution. Be ready for them! they move swift and can easily outpace you. If you are worried about the what type of person may show up to move your items, rest assured that these guys are serious about this job and are the exact type of persons you want handling your belongings.

Mover's response:
Thank you, Justin! We take pride in what we do, so these reviews mean a lot to us. Enjoy the new home!
