They were great. They worked their butts off and were able to pack the pod completely. Treat and A.J. Were awesome. Thanks guys.

Mover's response:
Thank you so much Halina. We greatly appreciate your business.

Polite, helpful. BUT!!!! Forgot to bring tools for dis-assembly of furniture. A true pro would remember to bring any necessary tools. By accident, one of the crew remembered that he had some tools in the trunk of his car.

Mover's response:
Thanks for your rating John. Our customers typically have an equipotent or supplies on hand and we provide the labor. In some cases our customer roquet tools and we will try to accommodate if we know in advance. Glad there was no damage and everything went smoothly.

Fast, efficient, careful & courteous. They loaded my 16 foot Pod in a little under 3 hours & even helped me move furniture that was not going on the Pod.

Mover's response:
Thanks Pat... Thanks for the 5 STAR rating.

My experience was that I hired two guys in a Chevy that showed up with a mountain dew. It was not one of hiring actual moving services. While the individuals showed up on time and worked hard they were not movers. They did nothing to protect the hardwood floors of the beautiful, historic house built in 1904. The had no tools, not even a screw driver to help appropriately pack the furniture (e.g. a roll top desk needed the top removed from the base and they didn't know how to handle the situation). They didn't "pack" the POD. They simply through antique chairs in on top of furniture. This is most likely review 1 or 2 because I am fairly certain that there will be significant damage of the antique furniture when I ultimately retrieve it from POD storage in the near future. I would not recommend, I would not use again. They did not know how to respect the property or goods. They did not know how to be movers. They were two nice guys.

The payment was released by someone even though the job was not complete. S and L company would not give refund after doing 1 hour work for 4 hour job. Also hired company would not return to complete the contracted hours of work instead of refund. Very rude and not helpful. Would not use the service again.

Mover's response:
Carol, there is no way possible that we can release the payment. You released the payment by calling from your home phone. We completed everything you wanted completed and stood around for almost 45-60mins to make sure there was nothing more. When your order is place, an invoice is sent describing our unused time policy. We left after you told us that there was nothing more. Your friend called us from another state after we left already and tried to get us to drive all the way back.Not practical

The two gentlemen that moved our belongings into our apartment in a high rise building were efficient and professional. They got the job done in the time alloted. Would hire them again in the future!

Mover's response:
Thank you very much..!

These guys were awesome! Talk about an art form. They really know what they are doing. Best money ever spent. Had we packed the PODS ourselves we would have needed another one. I highly recommend S & L Express. They even accommodated us when we had to change the time due to a damaged POD. Do yourself a favor and hire them for your moving needs.

Mover's response:
Thanks Melissa

Arrived on time, prepared, extremely hard-working, moved large pieces of furniture down several flights of stairs with tight turns without a hitch. They had a can-do attitude and finished on time and on budget. They asked questions when needed and took care of the rest. A++

Mover's response:
Thank you very much Krista.

They showed up over an hour and a half after the window they told me. I had already just moved most of the stuff by myself because I needed to get the truck back and it was after 6:30pm when they finally arrived. The original guy called me and told me they would be there at 5, then the actual movers called at 5:30 to say they were 40 minutes away, but didn't show up for an hour. They ripped the edge of our box spring and dented a bookcase, and they only ended up working for 30 minutes because we had already moved everything. Shaun, the manager, was very rude and unapologetic when I complained, and made me feel like I was an awful person for complaining about their service and refusing to pay for 2 hours of work that they didn't do. I had to demand a discount, which took me three different phone calls to get. I would not use them again.
