On time. Fast. Good job unloading a large POD (17 feet) and putting it in places in our townhouse.

Marshall was right in top of communication from the minute I submitted my work request. The two men he sent to move us, Mike S and Dat were amazing. They showed up a few minutes early got right to work and worked right through the full 5 hours. They took great care in moving our stuff but with so much efficiency. You could tell as they were packing the truck each item was thought about for maximum usage of truck space and protection for our things. Which worked because not one item was damaged. They thought about the little things that I didn't even think of to make moving day much less stressful. I would hire them again or any of the Handy Hands workers without hesitation.

I wish I could post photos to tell the story. They loaded our moving truck on the front end. First they said the truck was too big. At the end they did not fit all of our stuff. Mike kept telling us what a moving professional he was. During the offload most of our furniture was broken - not because of a blanket not used but because of careless packing. The photos I have show stuff just thrown Into the truck. My bench from my dining room set legs broken and ruined. My office chair arms just snapped off. My credenza totally broken in half because they put heavy boxes on top of it. The list goes on and on. Horrible. To make matters worse we gave each worker a $50 tip. Do not use these guys

Four fellas arrived on time, were careful with our items and home and were very respectful and polite. The project was completed in three hours and after a searching walk tru to make certain that they had loaded everything that we had asked that they load, shook hands and wished us safe travels. What more can you ask for?

Excellent service. Punctual, courteous, caring, professional. And their service is available after 5 pm - a big plus for weekday moves. Marshall at the office was very accommodative. While booking, Hire-a-Helper gives you a one-hour window, 4-5 pm in my case, for the arrival of the helpers. Being on a workday, I needed them to arrive closer to 5 pm. I called Marshall and requested for helper arrival at 5 pm or very close to 5 pm. Tyler and John - the moving labor helpers - arrived at 4:55 pm. Both are very courteous, caring and enthusiatic about the work. I was moving a large upright freezer. They treated it with care as if they are moving their own freezer. They didn't waste any time and the move was successfully completed well within the 2-hr window. Very impressed. Highly recommend Handy Hands Labor.

This was so worth the money - two polite and VERY strong young men arrived and helped me unload my moving truck. They worked hard carrying many heavy items upstairs. They couldn't have worked harder or been more pleasant. I highly recommend them.
