Good job overall. They worked really hard to take apart two beds that were difficult. Remember to ask them to bring tools in advance if you need them (e.g., screwdriver), otherwise they won’t have any tools. Also, know that YOU will need to put down plastic if you want to protect any carpet. I didn’t know they wouldn’t do that, and it had snowed that day, so my carpet was dirty and soaked from them walking in and out with wet shoes. This will be especially important if you are selling your house and your Buyer will expect clean carpet. These guys move super fast and they will get your stuff moved within your window, so no worries. They also pack incredibly tight, so they will help you make the most of every inch of your truck or Pod which is a good thing. They actually care about saving you money!
On time, communicated well on when they would arrive. They moved quick and finished early.
I have used this company twice . The guys showed up on time , they were clean well mannered and respectful. I am totally recommending this company. I was amazed at the amount of energy and how fast and diligent they worked . Thank you for the great job ! But it’s not over I am calling them one more time to finalize the last of my move, so see you soon. Thanks again for the great job!!!
They arrived on time . I had rope and tie downs in a bucket none were used!! Cushioning blankets and rugs none were used!! Noticed some of my boxes were placed on there sides not in upright position hoping my kitchen aid box is not one of them I took pictures of their work and will find out when pods arrive 2-20-19 if everything is okay I am not sure these guys had the proper training on loading a pods . The pods pick up guy put some rope on my things by the door . The bed and box spring were not against the side wall but protruding into the middle of pods . I am losing sleep over this wanted to contact earlier but was on a time line.
Two gentlemen, Trent and Ricky, were at our house on time during what might be the coldest day of the year. They were organized, wrapped our furniture, and treated it with care moving it from our home into a storage pod. Will not hesitate to have these two fellas back in our home to unload the pod in the future.
Both the guys were great. They came in and worked quickly and were very nice to me and my family. They tackled my heavy items easily and did exactly what I asked them to do. I will definitely be using them again in the future.
My packers, Trent and Ricky, were very professional. They arrived a tad later than expected, due to traffic and poor weather, but kept me informed as to their ETA. They looked at the items I had packed and felt they could get everything in the POD and maybe more. They worked extremely hard, slipping and sliding on the ice as they packed the POD in the middle of a snow/sleet storm. They brought all of the needed supplies and were very respectful of our property and goods, even limiting their trips to the upstairs bedrooms in order to avoid tracking snow on the carpet. I would use S & L Express Moving Services again.
It’s the second time I am using their service. Same moving company, same workers, but this time situations were much more difficult. Freezing temperature, load from multiple locations, presence of snow and then unload to a house where the floor was just finished. They were very professional at work. Just tell them what you want and they will handle. Arrived on time, finished on time. No complaints. I would recommend them to anyone any season.
These guys were fantastic! Showed up on time and started right away. They were very careful with all our belongings. They worked very hard and quickly as well! I would hire S & L moving anytime!
On time, quick. Well planned loading as well as fitting everything inside the storage space. Rain and cold didn’t bother them at all. I highly recommend this team. Thank you!
My boyfriend and I moved in together and we had the same team help us on two different moving dates. The team came ready to work and worked for 5 hours with no complaints moving all of our heavy furniture into our 3-story house. We would definitely use S & L Express Moving Services again.
The movers were early and came ready to work. They were very professional and careful with my belongings. I would definitely hire them again.
They were the most efficient movers I have ever had. They were not only quick, but also respectful of the items they were moving and were well prepared. I will be using them for any move I have going forward and recommend them to all of my friends and family!!
On time Professional Helpful Experts Careful with packing and unpacking and moving and placement of goods both in the truck and in and out of our home!
Trent and Damion were wonderful. They workes quickly and efficiently while also being respectful of my belongings. Highly recommend!
They did a wonderful job. My only issue is that they were over an hour late.
Helpers were on time, respectful, and worked hard. They moved several pieces of furniture (big and small) after completion of my renovation/flooring project. For six months, my house has been chaos and now it is finally back in order and (almost) ready for company on Thanksgiving. I hope I don't need to use them again for awhile but would definitely recommend them to others.
S & L Express Moving Services, for Hire a Helper, has now unloaded 4 pods for us to complete our move from California to Illinois. Fantastic job all the way around. Efficient, prompt and great to work with! Definitely recommend for anyone needing moving assistance in their geographic area. We will definitely use Hire a Helper for any other moving needs.
David and Damian were fantastic and I would definitely ask for them again. On time, courteous, very hardworking. Very good company! Diane L, Batavia IL
Very careful with furniture and other items. Pleasant to work with and made suggestions for items that should not go in pod due to cold temperatures.
This is the 2nd time I've used S & L Express! They're fantastic. On time, and great care moving with absolutely no issues! I will continue to use them and recommend them to friends
This is the 5th time we have used HireAHelper and it has always been a great experience. Here in Illinois HireAHelper scheduled Trent and Ricky from S & L Express Moving Services to unload our last 3 PODS. They have done great work. Extremely hard working and conscientious plus excellent communication and timeliness. They just unloaded our 3rd POD and we could not be happier with how everything has worked out. Outstanding experience.
I can not describe what a wonderful job that Damien and David did. They were polite, accommodating, and extremely efficient. They were able to pack our POD in a little under 2 hours. They were very concerned about protecting the walls and woodwork as they carried down our extremely heavy large furniture. Do not consider any other helpers for loading your POD. I know you will not be disappointed.
My rating would have been a 5 if not for one thing, they were late. I had flown in from Chicago, with the intention of driving a U-Haul to Ohio with my things. The drive is about 7 hours in a 15’ truck. Because they were an hour later than the agreed window, I had to move all but the furniture out of the storage unit so that when they arrived the job could be done quickly and I could get on the road. They finished the job in under an hour, but I had done 85% of the work. So the 2 hour minimum was a waste for me. I understand things happen, but I was not local, had a plan to minimize my night driving in a truck I wasn’t familiar with, and was not expecting to do most of the moving myself. Now I will use them again, the employees were very careful with my belongings, they were respectful, did a nice job packing the truck, and were apologetic about their lateness. But the company needs to do a better job of managing their jobs.
The 3D crew was awesome ( Damien, Damien, and Derek)! The were efficient, and hardworking, and they did an exceptional job at packing my pods. I am requesting the same team for unloading my pods. Thank you!
On time, polite guys that worked very efficiently to complete a move of 200+ boxes out of a basement, onto a truck in less than 2 hours. I would recommend them.
They were excellent and yes I would hire them again. They were respectful. I will be recommending to all my friends and family. Very easy to work with and will be using them again real soon. Thank you ever so much for a pleasant experience. Lillian A.
Timely, efficient, careful and great to work with. Nice to hire people who know what they are doing. Highly recommend.
These guys were great. They were fast and efficient. There wasn’t a space they didn’t utilize in that pod. We had a 16 and 7’ pod to fill and they had the work done in 3 hours. They really knew what they were doing. If you don’t use these guys you picked the wrong crew Tom
The 2 people I requested arrived on time and were hardworking and efficient. They did an excellent job.
The guys were fantastic. I didn't like that I paid for 4 hours and was done in 2 hours. I didn't get a refund and the helpers only got paid for 2 hours.
The team that was sent, Darius and Chris, did a superb job. They were so courteous and took very great care with our belongings when loading the pod. So very glad I used your services. Best movers we ever had. Highly recommend using your services.
Guys are great, very professional and courteous arrived on time and worked very hard,loaded my POD so everything fit I would highly recommend them .
Excellent crew. Prompt, courteous, respectful, excellent worked, on time, worked hard and did an excellent job of moving my furniture and doing what I needed top have done. I would absolutely use them again if needed and heartily recommend them.
Arrived right on time, very experienced, worked fast. very careful with our things. finished in less time than I estimated
They were awesome! They were so nice. They were on time. They worked incredibly hard. They were completely respectful of my daughter's things. I would definitely use them again. And we had three flights of stairs....they were unbelievable. They saved me and my husband from throwing our backs out!
I've never seen 3 young men works so hard. Hire a helper is the best. Thank you Mary Kay Klein of Glendale heights of Illinois
The helpers did an excellent job. Very friendly and knew what they were doing!
Able to flex to accommodate schedule, very hard working and fast in accomplishing the task within time frame, very professional and courteous, packed everything into Storage container- couldn’t believe they got it to fit!
The two young men were on time, worked very hard unloading a 16 ft pods trailer. They were very respectful and very careful with the furniture. Would hire them every time.
Trent and I believe Ricky were so professional. They moved so quickly and effeciently! Definitely an A plus service for us!
The best of the best !!! On time and hard workers. Very , very polite !! No messing around with Hire A Helpers.
Our two loaders were fantastic! We worried that our home contents would not fit and they got it all in with only a few inches to spare. They were fast and courteous. From our first call to the time our POD was locked up S and L Express proved why they have such a record of great reviews. Feel comfortable in choosing them!
Movers were punctual, polite, and efficient. Would absolutely hire them again.
Excellent to work with , Hard workers , great protection on furniture with respect to the exterior property of the house.
Second time using the crew at S&L. Great guys and very courteous. They really know how to do it!
These guys were on time efficient and did great work! Have had not the best experiences in the past. We will use them again and will definitely recommend!
These two guys did more in the 3 hours than my son and I could have achieved in a long day. They were timely, fast, efficient, and very courteous. The container was packed wisely, using all of the space available. We were extremely satisfied, and highly recommend them.
I wasn't sure what to expect when I hired movers from this site, but I was really impressed. The two guys that showed up we're extremely polite and friendly. They quickly loaded the moving truck and when we arrived at the second location they quickly unloaded everything. They handled everything really well and I would absolutely recommend them to anyone who needs help moving lots of stuff or bigger items.
Damien and Damien were awesome. We had one of the Damien's back in May of this year and we were thrilled to see him again. They worked very hard, were on time, and great at their jobs. They were very careful with our furniture and we had lots of stairs. I would definitely use them again!
The gentleman were on time, helpful and hard workers. They were also very friendly. Would recommend them again.
They did arrive an hour late so that’s why it’s 4 instead of 5 stars however the work that was done was amazing. They were quick but careful. Made sure everything got put where I wanted. Made sure my truck was clean before I returned it. My first time ever with movers and I’ll definitely use them again.
S & L EXPRESS MOVING SERVICES Is fantastic. Lashaun did an excellent job coordinating the job down to the last detail and Thomas and Rashad provided an efficient, quick and friendly service. They made my move easy! I would higjly recommend S & L EXPRESS MOVING SERVICES and specifically Thomas and Rashad. Thanx S & L EXPRESS MOVING SERVICES!
They were polite, took care to wrap pieces and were respectful of the flooring. They finished in less than two hours loading a 16 ft. POD
Great job! On time and worked hard would recommend using them for your move.
The helpers were prompt and extremely efficient. They didn’t waste any time getting started. I had to persuade them to take a minute to have a drink of water. They handled my items with extreme care and continually checked in with me as they went along. I would recommend these helpers without reservation. I could not be more satisfied!!!
The team was polite and very efficient. They finished early because they so quick. Definitely will use again.
Ricky and Kaneith unloaded our POD diligently. They were both very pleasant while they completed the job within the 2 hour window.
The 2 helpers / movers were polite and hard workers. Was very pleased with them !! Would recommend to all.
Both guys were great! Very conscientious and professional. They packed our truck quickly and effectively (noting no damage upon unloading). I would definitely use S&L again.
The two gentlemen were the best! Got every thing to fit in my pod! I would highly recommend your service to any one who is using a shipping pod, as they know exactly how to load it using each ounce of space! I was very pleased with their speed, professionalism and experience! If you need a pod filled, call this company, you could not have done what they did!
On time, very hard working, and friendly. They packed the truck tightly, but not as carefully as I would've liked: we had a few thinks chip and ding. Fortunately, it wasn't anything of great value. All in all, this is a very good and reliable company--I would use them again.
The gentlemen that came were great! They were polite and professional. They got everything done quickly and efficiently. They packed our Pod very organized. I would recommend them to anyone. Thank you!
They did a fantastic job moving in my furniture and assembling it. As well as completing the job in a timely fashion!
Darius and Damon did a great job. Very professional and very efficient. I would definitely use the again.
Awesome workers, fast, friendly and efficient. They showed up on time and got the job done a lot faster than expected. Couldn't be happier!
These guys (Ricky & Chris) worked very hard and very efficiently. I would definitely use them again. They were great!
Great guys. Showed up in time and got everything moved without a problem. We would definitly use them again.
S&L were referred by PODS to us. I specifically asked hireahelper.com if they know how to move pianos, I was told yes. But the guys still ended up damaging the wood floor! They didn't use a proper dolly, they don't have any tools (screw driver, etc). I still don't know if the piano was not damaged as we haven't unloaded the container yet.
The first impression was not a good one--they were 45 minutes late and we had unloaded about 1/3 of pod while waiting for them. They were both friendly--one was extremely lazy and kept resting the furniture pieces on it's back legs. Clearly was not taught the proper way to move items. They did not have any tools with them to disassemble a bed frame. I would have to say I would not ever recommend them to anyone or use again. They were there for 4 hours as it was proposed.
I have nothing but great things to say about these guys. They took a level of care that I was not expecting and was deeply appreciated. I would recommend these guys to anyone looking for a good mover, they fit more in a 16 foot box truck (securely and safely) than I thought possible.
The guys showed up in the hour discussed and unloaded my truck quickly! Got everything in the apartment, even a pretty difficult to move couch. I would use them again!
Ricky and Damien were great! Please give them big raises! I’d love to have them back again when I have my next POD delivered.
The guys were great. Professional, polite and efficient. Took care of everything without any damage. I'd highly recommend them to others. Keith
We were exceptionally impressed with all three of the men. They were timely, very organized and very respectful. We are ordering another POD before the month is over and would very much like to request these same 3 young men.
These amazing helpers made short work of our heaviest furnature. Careful, courteous, and efficient. I will definitely hire them for the section nd part of our move!
Polite Quick Strong Great Attitudes Couldn’t ask for anything more! Thank You!
Not only were S & L Moving on time, they were prepared and did the job with 100% effort. They were kind, curteous, and engaged in the task at hand. Excellent movers. Would move again and again if they were at the helm! (Lol, I hate moving!!!!!)
Lennie and Jason did an awesome job. Very polite, hard working and helpful. Managed to fit in everything we asked them to and more. They were on time and friendly. Definitely recommend S&L for your next move.
Efficient and Didn't charge for additional time due to some delays on their part. Friendly and accomplished all that was asked.
Excellent communication prior to coming out and movers were outstanding! They packed our portable storage unit perfectly and got way more into it then we thought would fit. They were very careful to make sure no damage happened to furniture and the house as they were moving everything out. They were also professional and courteous. I highly recommend them and would definitely use them again!
Amazing work. They arrived on time and finished super fast. I was hoping not to have to request more than one additional hour but they finished in under the standard two hours! Very respectful of our belongings and our building, and very accommodating of our special instructions. We would definitely use S&L again and highly recommend them. Thanks, guys!
Really great job! Moved a lot of really heavy awkwardly sized furniture (including a 4 seater sofa and two handmade benches) through small hallways with ease. Worked hard over three hours without stopping. I was impressed!
40 minutes late. Went to wrong address. Smelled like weed when they finally got there. Took the drawers out of a small dresser them the two of them picked it up to take downstairs. My wife (5'2) took the dresser from the 2 of them, brought it down by herself. Can't recommend, wouldn't hire again.
Chris and Darius were on time, prepared to get to work, professional and courteous. These guys worked hard the entire time! They got so much done yet were very careful with everyrhing. I will definitely be using them again.
Workers were about 1/2 hour late. Indicated they were detained due to their previous assignment. They were extremely hard workers although training on how to load a truck would be recommended. Workers were friendly and courteous. When unpacking we had many items fall on us due how items were stacked and put in the truck. We depended on their knowledge which there wasnt a whole lot. We also had several items knicked, scratched, and cracked due to how it was packed in the truck. I would question experience if I was to use them again.
Jason and Patrick were exactly what we needed for help. On time, kind, hard working and FAST. My items were treated with care while being moved quickly into our new home. Thank you!
Guys showed up on time and called in advance. They were polite and worked hard. Very pleasant to work with. They were not as experienced so needed some supervision. Wish they would have brought tools and a dolly.
They were on time (actually even a little early), very prepared, knew what they were doing, and knocked out the job in about an hour for our three bedroom house. It was quite fast! They were very efficient and careful with our stuff. I would absolutely use them again!
We had to ship some stuff that we did not get on the truck. When we were unloading we found a couple places where we could have possibly had it loaded there. But it could have been that we did not have the boxes ready to be loaded . All in all the 2 guys you sent did a great job loading things where they did not move the entire trip to Texas from Chicago.
