I can't say enough good things about Ira and Nate. They arrived on time, were prepared, worked hard, and worked quickly. They were both friendly and polite and I felt very comfortable with both of them. They were extremely respectful of my property and home and went over and above anything that I expected. Thank you for making this part of my moving experience pleasant. I would use them again and heartily recommend Sitter's Movers.

All 3 guys worked hard and did a great job. I hope to have the same 3 guys when we move into our house in September

Sitter’s movers was such a great asset to have on move day! They arrived on time, prepared, and ready to work! They stayed until the job was complete and packed our POD with such expertise, I was stunned at how much they were able to get in there! We would absolutely recommend using them and will use them again ourselves!

These 2 individuals were exceptional!! They were on time, polite, professional, and fully prepared to get our household effects packed and loaded. They rarely stopped working even though it was an extremely hot day, and I had water available for them. They brought shrink wrap, their own dolly and other tools for taking mirrors off bureaus, etc.
They were able to improvise when the TV box I had purchased was too small. Every item was wrapped carefully and placement was a consideration depending upon the room in the container and the other pieces to be loaded. I would definitely like to have these 2 individuals, Sully and Ira, help with unpacking our containers once we are ready to move into our next home. Great job.

Great job by the crew at Sitters! The guys took great care in moving and storing our items. We look forward to having them back for the return leg of the process (when we move into our permanent home). We cannot day enough great things about Sitters! We would highly recommend them to All!

If there is a special forces for moving, Sitter's Movers is it! Charlie, Nick, and Koz showed up on time and ready to go. They attacked our furniture and boxes with no time wasted. They expertly packed the truck we had rented and unloaded it with just as much care and energy. I have a large, unwieldy table-saw that did not fit in the truck so one of the helpers put it in his pickup! These guys are polite, business minded, very hard working with a can-do attitude, and were pleasant to work with. I highly recommend them and would use them again.

Our crew did a fantastic job. They were on time and fully prepared. They listened to our wishes and concerns regarding our move and quickly, carefully and efficiently packed our pod in the 2 hour time they were hired for. They certainly made our POD experience a good one and we would definitely use Sitter's Movers again.

Good crew of three young men. Balanced in personality. They finished faster than anyone expected.

Everyone we interacted with was extremely professional, punctual, pleasant, courteous, and efficient. We used their moving services 3 times. Amazing company overall! We’ll absolutely use their services again. Thank you for making this move bearable.

The gentlemen were on time (even offered to come earlier) and they were polite & respectful. Packed up the entire kitchen in a couple of hours. I asked for them to leave me access to a couple of boxes and they not only did that but made sure I knew where they were and what was in them. Since I wasn't moving out of my house - just out of my kitchen for a remodel using Sitter's Movers gave me more than I expected by bringing the boxes and packing materials that I would have had to go and find and purchase. I would highly recommend using them.!!

Get To Know Us

What can a customer expect after booking with you?

We will contact you via text and email within 24 hours of booking your order to acknowledge receipt and introduce ourselves. We will also call you two business days prior to the move to discuss the details of your move and answer any questions and/or instructions you have for us. You are welcome to reach out to us as much as you like to!

What can a customer expect on moving day if they hire you?

We will be on time. To be early is to be on time and our guys aim to arrive 15 minutes prior to the scheduled time to perform a walk through with you.

How should a customer prepare for moving day?

We will email you our Recommendations PDF within 24 hours after booking your move. These recommendations are the best ideas we've learned along the way to set our customers up for success!

What types of moves have you handled?

We have a tremendous range of experience. The types of jobs we have done include: local, cross-country, international, office moves, junk removal, medical equipment, and other commercial work. We even changed out all of the furnishings for an entire student-housing facility (well over 100 units). The clients we have served include: military, families, elderly, students, businesses, billionaires, professional athletes, celebrities, and even the homeless...hey, they have stuff too and we love to serve!

What's your favorite part about being a mover?

I started doing this because I wanted to get paid to work out. I'm still doing this because I find tremendous joy in serving people in a part of life that is often pretty stressful. It's very satisfying to tangibly see the work you've accomplished for someone else. Meeting new people, spending a lot of the day outside, and seeing new parts of town are really cool too :)

What training do you provide your crew members?

All of our crew are background checked and carefully screened. A crew member is required to have a minimum of 40 hours of on-the-job training prior to working for our customers.
