They were on time and got to work immediately. We had two guys and they both were very thorough. They asked questions and confirmed what boxes were to be moved. They were extremely helpful with the heavier items and made sure the boxes were secured in the POD. We were very pleased with there work and would use ASAP Movers again.

Ismail and his helper did a terrific job fitting everything tightly into our 16 ft. POD. They completed the job in 3 hours as predicted. They used our packing blankets and wrap to ensure our furnishings stay safe. I will request Ismail when we unpack in 12+ months.

Sure trips was wonderful. They promised a refund because they finished before expected, but Hire a Helper overruled their effort at fairness and refused to refund the hour that was unused. Sure-Trip gets all the stars. Hire a Helper sucks.
