Great service and communication.

Marshall always answered his phone to work out timing details and pre arrival details.

Matt and Aaron did the 'heavy lifting' , they are hard workers, they were very flexible and helpful.

The Handy Hands Labor guys were very personable. Mike, Mike, and Rick all worked exceptionally hard. We had them moving items from PODs to our new house the day after a huge snowstorm. Mike pointed out the damage that had been done to the one item that had been damaged during the POD's move. He also made sure that we had something covering our entryways to protect both the floors and their stability. They showed up on time within the hour they were supposed to. I would definately hire them again!

The two men who came to do the work, Tyler and Matt, were polite, friendly, professional, and very efficient. The job was to load a 16 foot PODS, which will be transported cross country. Everything was boxed, ready to go, and out in the garage. They completed the job in an hour. I also had direct communication on the phone with the supervisor, Marshall, prior to the job. He was very open to a last minute schedule change, moving the job a day earlier so that the PODS could get loaded ahead of a major winter storm.
My only complaint is about the required 2H minimum charge. The job was finished in an hour, which meant paying double.
