We had a 16 foot pod with a lot of big items. I was a little skeptical of how much it could fit. The guys got everything in there plus some. Overall, very happy with the service and would recommend to anyone.

The team that came out to do our home was a last minute switch. They were very professional, prompt and knew exactly how to pack the truck. We had very heavy and expensive items and they handles with care and ask questions on how we wanted things packed. Very awesome team.
