We had the most miserable day for a move, rain all day. To make matters worse, our driveway is steep and every item had to be taken uphill in the rain. They worked hard and efficiently, and got done in just a little more than 2 hours. Great help when we needed it!

Moving 4 You did a fine job- friendly guys who worked hard. But… HIRE A HELPER IS AWFUL! They are scammers and cheats… beware of Hire A Helper!!! My advice, find the company you want to work with outside of their scandalous money grabbing website, and hire them directly!

We were surprised how quickly the Regan Legacy Movers completed their job unloading the 16 ft POD. Upon arrival, they knew exactly what needed to be done. They worked hard and were respectful throughout the time they were here. We were very impressed with how quickly and well they did everything.
