They were not on time. The job before us ran over but they stopped the job they were in to get to us. They were kind of rough with our stuff but they managed to pack everything in the truck we got and nothing was broken. Even though they were not on time they moved very quickly and were still done by the original 2 hour limit. I couldn't ask for better results. All in all they did a great job.

They did a very good job. They arrived on time, unloaded quickly in a garage. They did not have to move in the house or set up anything at this time.

Workers all showed up on time and were very professional. They unloaded my 28 ft. trailer with care in less than 2 hours and put all my boxes and furniture exactly were instructed. They even helped in assembling my Sauna. I would recommend them to anyone in need of moving labor help.

Bo, Caleb, Trey and Josh were very courteous, professional and hard working. They went right to work and packed our Pods as full as they possibly could. Hopefully I won't have to change this rating once we unload them, because they we very good.

I do not recommend. Two stars for showing up and doing some work.
Mr. and Mrs. Bennett (the bosses back at HQ, ZERO stars). The movers showed up and spent the first hour talking about not being able to move a 300 lbs plastic hot tub, because it was too heavy for them and their company. Their limit is listed as 400 lbs on the website but they told me it was 250. They said they usually would charge an extra $150 but if I could get a friend or two they'd only charge $100 extra. What? The guys told us they could only work an hour over instead of the listed two. No power tools for disassembly, so it took a solid hour to take a bunk bed apart. Smoke breaks were frequent, both on and off the truck. And the two guys bickered, a lot. It took an hour and a half to load the first item onto the truck. Mr. Bennett called me because he knew that I wasn't happy. He laughed and tried to make jokes. I didn't need or want to hear jokes. He even told me, "you didn't tell us that you had a **** safe". Uh, it was a 300 lbs hot tub, not a safe. I guess he had me on speaker, because a woman in the background mentioned stopping the work, and Bennett tried to talk me into just telling them to leave. We'll, my house was selling in less than 24hrs, and I just asked that they work harder and faster. It just wasn't a good experience at all. The young kid was polite. The other gentleman complained constantly about the hot tub and their company policy of 250 lbs weight limit, and that we didn't have enough furniture pads (we had 12, they didn't even use 4 of them). Then they didn't even bother to wrap or pad multiple items. I wound up calling Bob's moving, and that actually saved me. Bennett's was disappointing and looked for add ons and more $. And also reasons not to do the work. A $500 bill for about $250 worth of work. I DO NOT RECOMMEND!

Mover's response:
We are truly sorry you didn't have a positive experience. Communication could have saved a lot of the misunderstanding and disappointment felt on both sides. We do an initial confirmation call after receiving an order where we ask about unusually heavy or large items so we can prepare and bring the proper tools if necessary. We again do a day before confirmation call. During neither of these calls was a hot tub ever mentioned or disassembly needed outside of what could be done with standard hand tools. The 1st 20-30 minutes on site were not communicated to the Mr.( who was not on site) as he called us asking where the crew was, after they had been on site with the Mrs. doing the walk through. After learning about the hot tub the crew did call the office to see how to proceed, as this is against our standard 2 man policy. after spending about 30 minutes trying to get everyone on the same page, they then started disassembling the bunkbed by hand as it wasn't mentioned either. The crew was told to just get the large items, and they would hire another crew to get the smaller items, which didn't make any sense to our crew and led to further confusion. At this point the crew just dug in and got the truck loaded. The job went over 45 minutes which we gladly didn't charge for due to the lack of communication and confusion during the 1st hour which very well could have been prevented with clear concise accurate job details.

Jacob and Dalton did a great job! They called to let me know they were running late, but still arrived within the requested window of time, which I liked. Very pleasant and hard workers. I would definitely use Bennett’s again,
