Darryl & Byron showed up on time & ready to work. I have never seen two guys work as hard as these two did. They took extra care of all the furniture by wrapping it, covering all pieces with moving blankets and then taping over that. They were both super personaable & explained everything thay they were doing. They even had to work 2 hours more to get the job done! These guys were awesome!! I have already referred them to several friends & will be using them again when moving to my permanent home. Don't go to the big name guys they are twice as expensive & no where near as careful with your stuff! Thank you Darryl & Byron for the wonderful experience!

I scheduled these movers to arrive between 12-4 pm, but when I hadn't heard from them by 3:45, I called to check in. The woman who answered said she'd get a hold of the crew and have them call me with an ETA. When they called, I couldn't clearly understand them, and they couldn't give me more than a guesstimate as to their ETA when I asked when they'd be here. I did get a rough "45 minutes" from the woman I spoke to. 2 men showed up around 5:30, and then a few more by 6. (Yes, they sent me 5 guys when I only hired 4, and I had to pay for his overtime even!) We hired them for 6 hours. 6 pm-Midnight?! Had I figured it'd really take that long, I would have told them to reschedule.

Come to find out, their truck needed repair & it held them up. AND for a couple of them, our job was their THIRD one of the day!!!!! Those couple of poor men put in over a 20 hour day!!!! Needless to say . . . our desk was broken, our over 400+ lb. gun safe fell out the front door and onto the concrete sidewalk, so many pieces of furniture dropped, numerous walls were unnecessarily marked up (yes, I expect some dings & scratches . . .) and pieces of furniture scattered among the loads. I.E. The canopy of my bed and shelves of bookcases are displaced so far from one another in my storage containers! :( I'm afraid for the day we unload once we find a new house!

Their crew didn't finish loading our house into the storage containers until after 2 am!!! I'm not certain as to the exact time, because I couldn't hang in there that long. My husband stayed to close up. Some of the young teenagers with them had to even drive another couple of hours to get to their vehicle and home! I would have never hired such tired people. Their supervisor/scheduler/owner did their company a disservice by overworking some of them. It could've been more productive than it was had they not started so late.

I was completely disappointed. Completely. And definitely hopeful to find someone better for my move into a new home.

Mover's response:
Ms. Natalie, I think you have the wrong company. Sorry for your bad experience but, this wasn't our company.

They were efficient & courteous. They did arrive hours late but they were waiting for the other 2 guys to finish a job. They decided to come with 2 guys to unload when others couldn't so I was thankful that they came. My only complaint is since they had to wait for the other two guys to show up and never did they didn't get everything done that I needed to have done. I hired four people for 4 hours maybe with the thinking of an extra hour. because it was only two of them I still have things I didn't get done like the trampoline to put together, the basketball hoop didn't get put together, 1 mirror on a dresser dint go on & they didn't have time to fix the entertainment center. Now I have to hire help again to finish up, they did refund me the difference of the two guys but it's going to cost me a lot more to get other guys out here to finish up things that were undone. Just feeling frustrated.

Mover's response:
Hello Cori, we do apologize for the delay in servicing your move. Thanks for your patience and allowing us to send the 2 guys to get things started. We try to factor in delays, unfortunately, it's difficult to plan for the unexpected. We were willing to return to complete the items and we reimbursed for the other 2 guys not being able to make it. This is not our normal practice and we aim to please all our customers. Please accept our sincere aplogizes for this occurrence. Thanks
