Very thankful for their help on short (less than 24 hr) notice. The folks I originally lined up flaked on me and failed me. WP&L did not. WP&L were on time and did the work. WP&L were all business and professional. I needed a couple hours help to load some larger items into a box truck. They did that plus the rest of the items to be moved. I’d recommend and use again if needed.
