Albany Mover Reviews
What can I say, these guys communicated super well, showed up on time, listened to our needs and completed the job without incident. They were very respectful and even rearranged the items moved because I didn't like my original layout. Best $$ I ever spent, saved my back and my marriage, lol! HIRE THESE GUYS...many thanks to Marshall and Malik (hope I spelled that correctly)
They were a huge help! Would use again!! 5 stars!!
Great team! I highly recommend them! Friendly and did the job well!
Will definitely use again — Thank you!

Our movers arrived early, and had the experience to make loading our truck smooth and secure. They were friendly, kind, and efficient. They had our 3 bedroom apartment packed into the truck right inside our two hour window.
My movers did a great job! They were hard workers who were careful and considerate of the property! I want to highly recommend Taj and Keenan for anyone needing to have moving labor help!
Ryan and his helper were amazing!! They were so helpful in a very stressful time due to 1800 Pack Rat not delivering our pods when they were supposed to. I would recommend these guys any day!
They were polite and helpful. Quickly moved everything out of my POD. Full set up of bed and dinning room table. This was a smooth and easy move.
They were on time and very efficient. They were so nice and knew exactly what they were doing. Made moving a lot easier for us. I would very much recommend their services.
