Houston Mover Reviews
Team was excellent would use them again!
Omg - Wanya & Ilyas were so wonderful! I didn’t think we could fit everything into the 16’ truck but they did it and it was a very professional job, wrapping all of our furniture and making sure we were packed for the 24 hr move across country. I highly recommend them for any move or help needed. They were curious, fast and very professional. I cannot give them enough stars ??
Everything was perfect!
They were on time Very careful of everything Did the job in the time allotted I would highly recommend your service
Eric & his crew were extremely fast & efficient! They got the job done in 2 hours which was amazing for a house with 3 bedrooms & 2 bathrooms!!! I will definitely recommend them to all my friends?? They were fun to talk with as well. Just awesome service! Thank you ??
Great job! We had some bad weather and they very graciously worked with us on timing. They packed the container well and were very quick.
They were awesome and took care of everything quickly and with great care. I would hire them again
Two wonderful young men. Very hard workers. Worked very fast willing to put everything in the right place, polite, professional. I don’t know what else to add. They were just awesome. Wish I had used them the first time
Respectful, professional, efficient and fast!
Kishon and his crew did an amazing job packing my trailer. They were methodical in optimizing the space available and packing everything tightly.
The crew fast and efficient. They took good care with moving our house.
I couldn’t have asked for a better group of hard working guys for the 2days of the event we had. Very grateful for all work they did and helping all the groups we had. Could not have done it with out them!!!!! Thank you
Very quick and professional they did a good job 10/10
The movers arrived on time and did a wonderful job. They finished well faster than the alloted time.
These guys worked nonstop for 3 hours loading and u loading our furniture. They were friendly and professional. Didn’t even want to stop to take a small break. Super flexible. Great job!
Angel , marlan & heresone was awesome , they handled everything with care and got the job done with no problems . I would highly recommend them to anyone i know who is moving . Thank you all so much
Very professional and kind. Put everything where I wanted it. Thank you so much. Will use again!!!
Jeremy and his team arrived right on time. They did a walk through to confirm what furniture was being placed on the truck and got right to work. Truck was loaded in 2 hours (actually had 5 minutes to spare) and care was taken to protect my furniture and all the boxes they packed in. Would definitely use them again!!
These guys did a great job and were very respectful of the items that they moved.
These guys were really great. Very communicative, respected a special request, even worked in the rain. The job took much longer than expected (an oversight on my part) and they didn't say a dang thing about having to work for longer. They were extremely careful with all of the items, even wrapped and double checked with us along the way. Really great service. Reach out to Andrew!

Major Neighborhoods in Houston
Houston is one of the biggest and busiest metros in Texas, and that's saying something. For starters, there's a NASA training center here, called Johnson Space Center. You've also got your pick of entertainment, be it a sunny day of baseball at Miniute Maid Stadium or a night of theater at the Houston Grand Opera. And there's no excuse for not trying the barbeque at Burns Original BBQ! Of course, all of this is just scratching the surface of how locals really live all throughout Houston's many notable neighborhoods.
The Heights
Just a short distance northwest of downtown Houston lies The Heights — in fact, there's a hike and bike trail that starts on Moy Street and connects the two areas. This neighborhood is known for its Victorian-styled homes, retro stores like record shops, and the Heights Theatre. But there's also a dose of modernity in places like the Mercantile shopping center. All that historic charm means the streets and parking spaces are pretty narrow. Using local movers who know what roads can't handle moving trucks means you can rest easy while relocating.
Montrose
Montrose (also known as Neartown) is a 4-square-mile neighborhood southwest of downtown Houston packed with culture, food, and nightlife. The central thoroughfare of Westheimer Road is known for its thrift shops and boutiques. If you're an art aficionado, you should visit Rothko Chapel to view some of the famous artist's works. And Whenever you get tired of indoor activities, you can take a walk along any of the trails through the 30-acre Menil Park. Thinking of moving to Montrose? Professional local movers who know how to navigate the neighborhood are just a click away.
Rice Village
Houston’s Rice Village is right by — you guessed it! — Rice University. Sometimes called simply The Village, this neighborhood is one of Texas's oldest shopping districts. Since it's so walkable, you can spend a day meandering to local boutiques or the fresh fish market Blue Horizon. If you stay out too late shopping, no worries — grab a hot dog at Yoyo's that's open until 3 am. If you're planning on joining the Rice Village community, our professional local movers can handle all the logistics for you.
Memorial
Tucked away in the western part of Houston lies Memorial. Named after Memorial Drive, which winds its way through the area, this neighborhood is known for its greenery and parks. This includes Memorial Park, one of the largest urban parks in the United States. And in the Texas tradition of everything being bigger, there's also CityCentre, a massive shopping, entertainment, and residential development. If Memorial sounds like your new home, hiring local movers who know the neighborhood will give you a stress-free moving experience.

Michael and Jr were awesome! They were very attentive and took good care of my things. They are a wonderful team. The lady in the office was prompt communicative. They kept me posted on all updates. They even came earlier than scheduled! I would highly recommend Morris Movers! Thank you all for making my move stress free! Respectfully, Patti Taylor
Amazing movers! The guys were on time and incredibly efficient. I’ve never seen anyone load of trucks so well! Highly recommend. Five stars all around.
Rene and Torrey were absolutely amazing! They made my move in day a breeze! Took care of all of our belongings like they were their own, communication was exceptional, and they were quick and efficient with the amount of items I own. Grateful for their hard work! Will definitely book with them again for a future move.
Wow! 5 stars is not enough! Could not have gone better! They went way beyond expectations. I would completely recommend. So so happy! They were friendly yet professional. Hard working and very careful of our property. Absolutely perfect!!! Thank you so much!
Had a long distance move with PODS. There was an issue with the driver so my time got moved back. They were extremely flexible and worked extremely hard to move me from a 3rd floor unit with just 2 people and got it done in 3 1/2 hours. I highly recommend them for all your future moves! This was my 2nd time using this company and I have received the same quality service each time.
Joseph & Jacob did a great job once again! I had their help the first time loading my POD and requested these two guys once more. Funny, personable, hard working. Many thanks!!
Eric & his crew were extremely fast & efficient! They got the job done in 2 hours which was amazing for a house with 3 bedrooms & 2 bathrooms!!! I will definitely recommend them to all my friends?? They were fun to talk with as well. Just awesome service! Thank you ??
Very helpful, helped us ensure pod was right size and we had the correct materials in advance. On time, prepared and non-stop work while here. POD packing job was outstanding.
These guys worked nonstop for 3 hours loading and u loading our furniture. They were friendly and professional. Didn’t even want to stop to take a small break. Super flexible. Great job!
If I could provide a double 5-Star rating, I would do so here. I’ve moved for work 17 times over the last 13 years. Bobby and Edmond cared for my things as if they were their own. They took their time in moving pieces of furniture up the two flights of stairs along with additional crates. Doing so under the allotted time. They weren’t only professional but great people!
Called with eta, arrived on time, moved fast and efficiently. Personable and professional. Crew of three made this overwhelming experience calm and orderly. . Filled Pod like the pros they are. Very happy with these movers. Would definitely recommend.
They were awesome and polite and there were on time and did their job very well! We had no problem with these two people that help us we appreciate them very much and I would always like to have their help in the future and I’ll recommend them to others as well. God bless yall!
