The guys came in exactly on time and went right to work. They did not stop moving and loading until the task was complete. Nothing was broken or damaged. We would definitely use this MovingZoom again.

Great work! Hard workers and unloaded two very full pods without trouble.
Audrey S
The guys were awesome! They not only loaded my POD container but helped me move items from a storage unit into the POD. Again they were awesome and very friendly.
Thank you so much.

Now that I have unloaded my trailer, I can give a review. John and Austin's job was to load a freight trailer with household goods from my two-story house. My mistake was to budget only 4 hours to do the job as it was a full day's work. They were only able to spend 6 hrs for my job. In that time, they worked hard and were able to bring everything down to the first floor and put all the large items on the trailer.
The first problem is that I explained a tarp had to be put down in the front of the trailer to protect from water splashed from the tractor's tires (I was warned by the freight driver). They understood it as water from the trailer tires in the middle of trailer and would place the tarp in the middle of the floor. After the first two tiers, I noticed the tarp had not been placed, so the tiers had to be taken down, tarp placed, and tiers rebuilt. This was time wasted, and even then the box in the front floor corner was soaked because the tarp was not placed well.
The second problem is that paper pads were rarely used. I pointed out the high-value items and they were protected well with paper pads and cling wrap. I bought 100 paper pads. At the end of the day, I had over 75 left. I would have appreciated if more pads were used. All the other non-high value furniture suffered from rubs and scrapes that would not have occurred if more pads were used.
Finally, the last tier was really ragged. When I finished filling the trailer the next day, I had to bring it down and rebuild it. In bringing it down, I found a nice old chair had had its leg broken off. The trailer had not moved an inch and a piece of furniture was severely damaged. I don't know if it can be fixed.
To sum up, John and Austin arrived on time, worked diligently and respectfully. Unfortunately, the results were not what I expected or desired.
Update: MovingZoom has reached out to make good on my issues. I appreciate their responsiveness.

On time, professional, hard working. Good communication throughout the entire process. At one point it looked like only 2 of the 3 helpers were going to be able to make it and MovingZoom contacted me the day before to let me know and offered to reschedule with another company if I needed it. I stayed with MovingZoom and they found a way to get the 3rd person out there.
How a business handles obstacles is key. I appreciated the customer oriented approach.
For reference, I used the unloading service and booked 3 people for 2 hours. They completed the job in under an hour and half.
I'll definitely be using MovingZoom again for my next move.

The good:
Punctual
Good communication on timing
Friendly to me
No damage to items during unloading
The bad:
A little on the slow side, especially when compared to who loaded my container (30 min to load vs 1.5 hrs to unload)
The biggest hit against them, was one mover was very nice. The other was nice to me but very condescending and spoke harshly to the other mover at times. Rubbed me the wrong way, didn’t feel they worked well as a team, and this slowed them down
Would use again, but would hope for different individual movers with a better attitude toward the job.

Brent and Arturo showed up on time, quickly walked through all of our items, and went right to work packing our POD. They expertly packed the POD with our stuff utilizing every square inch of space! Highly recommend using these guys!
Tammy B
So glad I chose movingzoom! I originally chose them because of all the great reviews, and they didn’t disappoint. They worked hard, and continued at a great pace for 3 hours. Highly recommend!
