Strick-Fos moving was great. They were very professional and helped relieve my stress. The weather didn’t cooperate with us and they were able to change our date for when they were coming to pack the pod so we didn’t have to have them pack us in the rain. They arrived on time and did an excellent job wrapping our furniture and packing the pod. I highly recommend them.

These guys were great. They showed up on time, were extremely helpful, and were careful with all of my belongings. They even went above and beyond by helping me lower furniture off of my balcony that wouldn't fit through the patio doors, and they came back to help me load things into a separate trailer after my initial pod couldn't fit everything. Would absolutely recommend them.
