Satisfied Customers:

Patricia L from Chicago, IL
I was very pleased with Martin from Xpress Moving, he worked very quickly and carefully and finished the work in record time.

Michael B from Chicago, IL
Everything went perfectly, even though they had a long drive they arrived on time and were able to accommodate our schedule perfectly. Thanks!

David B from Chicago, IL
The two movers were incredible and fast. They were very calm as well, helping us relax after a big state to state move. Would recommend to my best friends.

Sumit S from Chicago, IL
Overall a decent experience. Ran at least 1 to 1 1/2 hrs late, so if you're worried about starting on time, I wouldn't go with these guys. Otherwise, moved everything quickly. Didn't pack that great in the truck as they put the bed frame right next to a wood dresser and that got scratched a little during the drive. Also, a plastic lampshade was cracked because it was place in between the mattress and a dresser, luckily it was cheap.

Kirsten D from Chicago, IL
My only regret is that these guys are not available on the other side of my move out of state! Excellent service. Prompt. Professional. Kind. Very good with communication from the day that I booked them to the moment they showed up to the time they left. Hard workers. Very safe with all my expensive, fragile music gear.

Danielle F from Chicago, IL
My moving helpers were fabulous, I had to move the job date three times and they were very professional and went out of their way to accommodate me each time. They worked very hard the whole time and took excellent care of my stuff, I will definitely use them again and refer them to others!

carolyn b from Chicago, IL
These guys were great! I called only 1 day in advance of my move and they were able to accomodate me. They were so fast and helpful- I'd still be unpacking if it wasn't for them. We unloaded our U-haul and had everything in our 3rd floor walk up in under 2 hours. I feel that the price was very reasonable for the amount of help they gave me.

Trang D from Chicago, IL
They were very hard working. I have never seen anyone fly up and down 4 flights of stairs with boxes so fast in my life! Great work, I would use their services again!

Amy R from Chicago, IL
They were slightly late but once there they packed everything real well and nothing was broken or damaged when we unloaded.

Adam S from Park Ridge, IL
Our movers were Dave and Ryan. They were to show up at 10:30am and actually showed up early. They went right to work, wrapping the furniture and carrying it down our THREE FLIGHTS OF STAIRS!! They were able to get everything down and perfectly packed into our moving truck in less than two hours. Overall, they did a great job and I would recommend them to others! Thanks - Lori and Adam

Matthew S from Chicago, IL
Great service. We were running early to Chicago with our do-it-yourself moving truck, and our helpers were willin to show up ahead of their scheduled time, which was great as it's hard to park a large truck on the street for a long period of time. They even helped us find a spot to park our truck once at our new place. As far as unloading our things, they were fast, friendly, and skilled. Highly recommended - great experience.

Matt S from Chicago, IL
The initial movers S&L never showed up! They eventually called 3 hours late. The second company hired (Mobile Moving) showed up and did a very good job. They were quick, careful, and courteous.

Kara F from Chicago, IL
One of the men from S&L worked constantly with no breaks, trying hard to finish unloading our trucks in our 2 hour timeframe. His colleague was lazy and slow, frequently sitting and taking breaks. He also dropped our box of Christmas ornaments, breaking a few. Overall, they were careful and did a nice job, but even the hard working mover was frustrated with his partner by the end of it.

Mike M from River Grove, IL
Will absolutely use again. On-time, courteous, careful, respectful of my possessions. As advertised. Great value.

Jeffery P from Mount Prospect, IL
JB movers did a good job for me, they were very professional and even showed up half an hr early. They worked quickly and did an excellent job getting all my stuff packed and loaded into the truck.

Zachary R from Chicago, IL
These guys were fantastic, they did everything with a smile and helped with a pretty brutal move. Nice people, have already recommended, and really inexpensive for the deal that they give you.

Judith R from Chicago, IL
I have used many moving services before, and this by by far the most professional and courteous expereince I have ever encountered.

WaKeesha J from Riverdale, IL
I had a very positive experience with S&L Express Services. The helpers were punctual and very professional. They seemed experienced as they moved fast and got the job done without any damage to my house or furniture. I would recommend their services to family and friends.

Brynn C C from Chicago, IL
They two movers were very courteous. They were a little late due to a directions mishap but were very careful with my furniture. I didn't have much for them to move, so it was a fairly easy job for them. It would be great if services offered less than 2 hours, but I also understand.

Mary J R from Niles, IL
The JB Moving crew were prompt, professional and efficient. They were responsive and very helpful to specific requests made during the unloading process. They seemed to take good care of many fragile items, which included a sizeable glass panel and an upright piano. I would not hesitate to recommend JB movers to others.

Michael P from Evanston, IL
Main office called promptly following request to hire being submitted. Movers were late due to another move; however, they called to let me know and were friendly and hard-working upon arriving. I had a difficult job which they were able to complete effectively and efficiently.

james b from Evanston, IL
There was some miscommunication between the coordinating person from S&L and the "helper", a guy named Paris, so we got off to a late start (but that sounds like par for the course in this industry). Paris was great - nice guy, made the whole thing so much easier. Recommend him anytime. Contacted the day before and they were able to help me out.

Jennifer P from Chicago, IL
The workers worked hard while they were here. One worker (Andre)really seemed to know what he was doing. The other did not. When we made initial contact with S&L Express, we asked if two workers would be enough for our job, giving the exact perameters of what we needed done. They said that it would, but we probably could have used four people. If they had suggested this, we certainly would have done it, and the job would have progressed more smoothly.

Ross H from Chicago, IL
Excellent!!!! Showed up an hour early, handled the work expertly and professionally (despite having to move a ~8ft couch up 4 flights of stairs). Would certainly recommend to friends.

Benjamin C from Evanston, IL
These guys were very friendly and fast. They were slightly late but called ahead to let me know. They did a good job packing the truck. Some things were not as secure as I would have liked. Overall, they were very good. I would give them 4.5 out of 5.

Mary Ellen C from Chicago, IL
Wow! The helpers arrived early! We only had the freight elevator for two hours so prompt arrival was essential for our move. All of the crew were very careful with absolutely everthing they moved. They also worked quickly and completed the move faster than we expected. All of the men were very courteous and polite. Excellent!!!

J Reynolds B from Chicago, IL
The two helpers arrived on time, were courteous, very hard working and packed my trailer with great expertise. I would recommend them to anyone for they were just first rate!

Marshall V from Chicago, IL
I had a good experience with Xpress Moving team. Unfortunately the moving truck that I had arranged wasn't able to be picked up until later than expected, but the movers were flexible and were able to show up two hours later than initially scheduled to meet my needs.

Drew M from Chicago, IL
The two young gentlemen who helped me move were punctual, polite, efficient and extremely helpful!! A huge amount of help for a fair price. I'd recommend them to anyone and I'd use them for future moves.

caitlin f from Evanston, IL
Movers called to let us know they were running a little late (15 minutes). They worked straight through until the job was complete. They did a great job with our heavy furniture!

Sarah H from Chicago, IL
Sundaze was great! The initial confirmation call came in only an hour or so after reserving online (well in advance of the advertised response time). Stacy had several excellent suggestions for loading our truck (in Michigan). She was also able to accommodate changes on our side with the start time with out issue. On the day of the move, our helpers were extremely prompt, efficient, careful, courteous and professional. They arrived before the scheduled time and I don't think they stopped once for a break. Having moved many, many times I expected a few dropped boxes or scratched walls. But there were NONE! These guys were the best! I would highly recommend them and I'm sure will be using them again!

Tracy A from Palatine, IL
Arrived on time and were very friendly. They did a great job unloading and moving the furniture up to the third floor of our apartment. I would use Sundaze Movers again. Thank you, Tracy

Jennifer M from Chicago, IL
Please type review here... The guys were great! They worked very quickly and handled all items with care. I would use them again and highly recommend them.

CHI YOUNG O from Chicago, IL
The crew from S&L services was fantastic, they were extremely professional, packed my truck very well and I was just very impressed with their performance.

Dale P from Chicago, IL
excellent help! Rocky & RayRay worked hard and nothing was damaged. Would not hesitate to hire them again.
