Overall great experience with Eli’s moving! Super helpful, social and hard working. They kept things neat and organized, made sure everything was exactly where I wanted it and kept the area clean and dry when it started pouring outside. I’ll definitely use them again and highly recommend them to anyone that’s needing help moving.

I had a half a relo cube worth of boxes and furniture that I wanted help with. They showed up early and did a fine job of navigating the tight doorway to the small stairwell. Brought a large and small dolly, which was helpful, too. Finished up in less than an hour. Thanks!

They arrived on time. Unloaded in timely manner. They were very helpful. They unloaded a Penske moving truck. We had a steep driveway and couldn’t back the truck up the driveway. The movers went up and down the driveway without hesitation. I’m extremely happy with the job they did.

The 2 guys that helped me did an excellent job! They were very nice and helpful. Raul, the point of contact, was very responsive. I called him in the morning with an update to give the movers and he picked up right away. He also made sure to give me a courtesy call when my time limit was almost up. Calling is better than emailing if you need to reach them.
