The team did a great job during unloading the truck and arranging the belongings in storage. The only thing that should be reviewed for improvement is ensuring that sufficient people are available on the phone to release the payment after the team on the ground does their part. We had to be on the phone for more than 30 min with one dropped phone call and then again in another phone line before someone answered the phone.

Did a wonderful job unloading the Pods. Arrived as stated and kept within the hours paid. Cared about the shipment as if was their own.

These guys were terrific! Not only did they work incredibly hard, they RE-moved (without complaint) all the items the forgetful homeowner (me) had neglected to label with a destination. They slogged through the snow to put things in an outbuilding where they would be stored until we had a garage/workshop built. They also helped put back together an antique table whose legs had mistakenly been removed by movers at the other house - a not-inconsiderable task, it turned out. We have already hired them again to do the last load in a week or so. Can' recommend them highly enough.
