Did a great job loading up everything from a one bedroom apartment to a 12 foot moving truck for an interstate move. Very friendly, courteous, treated all the stuff with care and packed things in the truck so they won’t move around during the drive. Highly recommend them.

The movers came - even in the pouring rain - to complete our job. We provided them a covered patio so our items and the movers didn't get wet. Regardless, they were on time and very quick. They helped us work through admin issues as well.

It was the hottest day of the year, and we were their third move of the day, but the three guys that helped us move in were All-Stars! They had great attitudes and worked hard, non-stop. We had to encourage them to take a water break, they were so intent on getting the job done in a timely fashion. Moving from out of state, this was a great introduction to the Detroit area!

These two movers arrived promptly and immediately went to work. They worked super hard, efficiently, and were polite and thoughtful. Packing a pod requires a different strategy than just loading a truck and they were good at repositioning and resetting already packed items. I appreciate the amount of dedication they put into this work. I would recommend them and use them again.
