Kenneth and his crew member showed up on time, and were super nice and easy to work with. They were able to accommodate my move, even with only a few days notice, and during Thanksgiving week! They worked really quickly and carefully. They even put my bed frame together for me, and helped me figure out my furniture arrangement. I will definitely hire them again in the future!

Wonderful! Very helpful. Kind and efficient. I had an issue with picking up my van and they were flexible and worked with me to get the job done. I would highly recommend !! Very considerate and respectful.

Kenneth and Brian! These two, showed up on time, rapidly developed a strategic plan, and immediately put the plan into play. I had paid for 2 hours of help, but these two knocked out the whole job in about 45 min. Not only was the job completed quickly, while I was out making another trip to grab some more things, my whole bedroom had been set up by the time I had made it back upstairs. Also, it just so happened to be pouring rain during the move. However, everything had made it in my apartment **** near dry!! Everything was covered with blanket and such, to ensure my belongings and furniture were safe and protected. Bottom line, the guys killed it!! If you’re worried about the experience you may have, while using this company... Hire these two!! Then you’ll have no need to worry or be anxious about your move. It will get done fast. It will also be done right!

Very easy to recommend. Amazingly helpful, friendly, and efficient. Hired them to move a new refrigerator up a complicated staircase that involves a 90° Turn with wedge shaped stairs, and take the old fridge down those same stairs. The regular delivery movers had refused to even try… These guys were awesome and did it very quickly… And with good humor! I can very easily recommend hiring these guys.

This is my second time using this service. The guys were great, on time, polite, thoughtful, and finished in less than 2 hours. I definitely recommend this service, and will use it again should the need arise.

Showed up on time and got right to it! They even packed the truck and my son who has done that a lot said that they knew what they were doing. I did have to ask them to put on masks.

Kenneth and his crew mate were fantastic! Punctual, efficient, and hardworking. They got the job done quickly and took good care of our belongings.

Kenneth and Kevin were extremely helpful and efficient and fast! They did all they could do fit me in as I had to re-schedule due to a U Haul mis-schedule and got in and out as quick as humans could and filled my 20 ft truck and get to their next appointment since I had to re-schedule last minute. They even dismantled a shelf on the grill to get it fit into the last space of the truck.
I wish they could've unloaded me in Bend , too!

Get To Know Us

What can a customer expect after booking with you?

You now have a friend in the moving business. Whether you need expert advice on the best way to handle a single item, or cross country logistics, I am obliged to advise. Lines of communication are always open with us. There's enough to worry about with moving, let us burden the weight of it. When you book with us, you can now relax; we will take care of the rest. You can expect consistent updates up until the day of your move, as well as any good moving jokes if you just need a laugh along the way.

What can a customer expect on moving day if they hire you?

A courtesy call can always be expected when we are on our way to you with an exact ETA. Updates are always available if you have a time frame of our arrival if you need, without being bothersome. When we show up we take a moment to stretch, orientate ourselves with your project goals, game-plan while we gather gear, and then hit the ground running. A steady and consistent pace will begin to quickly melt away any previous stresses. By the end, you may even say "That was fun!".

How should a customer prepare for moving day?

Anything you are able to disassemble, unplug, or prepare before our arrival is putting money back into your pocket. We always come ready to handle anything, but your level of preparedness is one of the largest factors determining how much we can get done as quickly as possible. Family heirlooms or irreplaceable items should have special arrangements made for them or be brought immediately to our attention to make proper accommodations. We also let to set up your new house, so being available helps.
