I had a really tough job. It was a 2800 sq foot home with large furniture, a mirrored buffet, and 40-50 boxes. It was a ton of stuff. They came at 9am and packed all the boxes, wrapped all the furniture, and everything got to my new home without a scratch. These guys worked late, and were always moving. They worked very hard. The window was 8am-10am, got there at 9am and were just moving till very late. Did not break or scratch a thing, they are very professional. I would use them for my next move! 5 stars, I was very pleased. It is worth the extra few bucks if you have nice stuff!!!
