Helping Hands Moving & Labor Service

On the day of my move, they did not show up and I had to hire another company.

They were on time and did an OK job, but I would hesitate to give them the label (and pay the associated price) of professional movers. Their attitude, appearance, experience and work ethic were not appreciably different from what you would get by having friends help you move, or by paying a couple of homeless dudes or day labor…Read Moreers at a fraction of the cost. For instance, one of the guys took his shirt off a few minutes into the move (it wasn't even all that hot out), and they took a smoke break near the end (after 45-50 minutes). They didn't break anything, but they weren't especially careful with our belongings, either. They discarded the plastic wrap we had over our furniture, and didn't think twice about handling the furniture with their dirty, sweaty hands. They weren't terrible, but I wouldn't use them again unless as a last resort.

Mark and James were on time and ready to work. I was impressed at their ability to tackle my big pieces of furniture at the same time as they were able to work through the best way of getting my things from one place to another. The only issue I had was in confirming the time of my appointment as my main point of contact w…Read Moreasn't very responsive. When I called Mark at the second number, however, he got back to me quickly and worked to make sure that Helping Hands kept the appointment I had made. This was especially great since I was moving over the hellish -- and hellishly busy -- 8/31-9/1 dates.

Helpers were very supportive providing a great service with courtesy. Helped with all requested tasks during the unload process. Definitively is a service to be recommended. On time, good price. and reliable.

These are hard-working, well-meaning guys. They showed up 15 minutes late, but also stayed about 30 minutes late. Unfortunately, they just weren't good. They ripped my couch trying to get it out the front door (about a foot-long tear that I managed to sew together). That's fine; we could have made that mistake ourselves. Th…Read Moreeir response to the damage? "Not our problem." Fine. But, that's just what was obvious when we were loading up the truck. When we were unloading, I found the real depth of their inadequacy: they put a hole in the back of my bookcase, scratched up a lamp, and put deep, wide, long scratches on both the coffee table and the dining room table. They also apparently put a corner of my mattress down in a puddle! Seriously, only one thing in the entire truck was wet, and it was a corner of the mattress. We dried it out in the sun and used Febreeze to get rid of the smell, but the stain is still there. There were also countless little scratches everywhere on everything that wasn't boxed, but those are probably just wear and tear. If I cared more about how my things looked, I would have had to spend several hundred dollars replacing all the damaged goods. Instead, I'll be ingeniously finding ways to cover up all the damage. So no, I would never use these guys again.

They were a bit late because of a confusion in directions getting to my place, but it was easily resolved and they worked hard to complete the job in less time than I had anticipated. Very nice guys, I would hire them again.

Really nice guys. They showed up on time, worked hard, and got the job done fast.

After arriving late, due to some miscommunication, Norman and his guys were really good. They loaded the van we had hired really well and were very professional and courteous. They also worked extremely hard and were happy to stay well beyond the time we had originally booked them for. Would definitely use them again.

It was hotter than hot and it poured down rain and the two men who came to haul all the heavy stuff up to the third floor apartment did the work without complaint. They came early and worked the full two hours they were contracted for and worked extremely hard. They treated our old solid wood heavy with the respect furniture l…Read Moreike that deserves. They were both friendly and easy to work with. They were overly appreciative for the Gatorade we got them. I would hire them again...anytime!

Got a call back the same date I scheduled the movers. The movers showed up on time and did a great job. They worked hard and had the truck unloaded within the first 2 hours. I would use them again.

Norman and Eric did a great job. They were on time, worked hard, and got the entire apt moved in faster than the estimate. Great guys and a wonderful introduction to Boston.

Did a good job.

Norman & Eric were terrific! They were on time and helpful and did a great job packing a FULL storage unit. Thanks so much!!

The movers were on time and worked efficiently. They were able to unload most of a 22-ft truck in the two hours I had requested. They were also careful when going around corners or up the stairs, and had no problem taking direction for where to unload each item. I would readily call on their services again.

Showed up 30 minutes late, but did a good job with moving.

These guys were terrific - on time, worked hard every minute, and got everything packed.

Helping Hands was sent by Hire A Helper after our original mover walked off the job without notice. They came on very short notice, in the rain and on foot. They were armed with an excellent attitude and readiness to do the job. They navigated a narrow third floor walk up with grace and good humor, completing the job in under th…Read Moree allotted time. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

The movers were early. They were prepared to move, but did not have a ride to the second location and did not notify ahead of time that they would need to ride in the truck. I would not say they worked hard, but with encouragement they got the job done. They certainly could have moved a lot faster, but overall they were respe…Read Morectful of my property.

They were promt, courtious and efficient

They worked hard and did a great job! They moved a lot of heavy, awkward furniture with no damage to my floors, walls or the furniture itself. I was very pleased with their services.

Great guys! Worked hard an we got done faster than expected!

My helpers were on time, was extremely careful with my furniture and very courteous. They even did the job with 20 Minutes to spare. I would highly recommend them.

Very good job. Initially were late which thre off the day and we just barely got the truck back on time. The guys did show up worked quickly carefully and professionally and i understand the guy that made them late was let go. The main guy has been doing thi 40 years and worked impressively fast as he worked to stack to the …Read Moreceiling of our not quite large enough 14 ft truck. The unload was a breeze and we returned the truck on time. We did have to pay an extra two hours than I was anticipating which seemed to me a little long for the size of our move we prepaid 3 hours and were moving from the third floor to the first. The main guy suggested I'n the future 3 guys and said thy woul have been cheaper for us. I would definitely use them again and feel good recommending them to anyone else that was looking for an affordable mover. Maybe cobfirmagead of time a description of the job to decide the correct number of movers to make the job cheaper.

Great job. They were right on time and completed the job well in time.

The Helpers that came were awesome. They were efficient and fast. I would recommend them for future movers!

worked hard

Punctual, very helpful, hard working. well worth it!

"Helping Hands Labor" really helped me out with my move. They showed up on time, kept in contact with me beforehand, moved all of my furniture and boxes with ease (even up my narrow staircase), and did it all with a friendly, positive attitude. Norm and Darrell were great, and their price is great too. No complaints here, it …Read Moreworked out well. I definitely recommend them!
