I cannot say enough wonderful things about John and his crew. Moving is already stressful, but I believe I had a particularly stressful day when the Pod container I ordered to arrive on Saturday morning was not able to be delivered to my new place. I had to scramble to find a moving truck to hire day-of, and unload the Pod to the truck at the storage facility in order to get everything to the apartment. While calling around to different moving truck rentals that were all sold out of everything except a 26' truck (I'm 5'4"...), the easiest call of the day by far was to John. I asked him if he was able to meet us at the facility in Des Moines instead of downtown Seattle, load the truck and then follow us to the apartment and unload it there, and therefore will probably need an extra hour or two. I thought the request was unlikely, but John said that would be no problem. He and Andre arrived at the facility EARLY (!!), loaded up the truck tightly for a 30 minute ride into downtown, and met us at the apartment. My first time moving into an apartment, I had completely forgotten to reserve the loading dock and moving elevator, and we had to wait for another moving crew to finish up before we could start unloading. John and Andre, instead of taking advantage of free hours on the clock, started taking up smaller items that they could carry without the moving elevator, patiently waiting for the only elevator that was available for use at the time (of course, of the two non-moving elevators, one was broken that day!). Once the other moving crew left, I accidentally hit the top of the moving truck trying to get it into the loading dock, and started panicking from the stress of it all. John and Andre helped me direct this giant truck through the tiny alley, telling me everything was going to be okay! Once set up properly, the guys made quick work, unloading the furniture and large boxes and even put boxes in the coordinating room. Already well past the original two hours (almost four hours by now, and almost 5pm-- they must have been so hungry and tired!), they even helped me set up my bed and couch and made sure I had everything moved to where I needed it before leaving. On a day that everything seemed to fall apart, these guys were absolutely my heroes. Again, I cannot recommend them enough. I have two friends moving to Seattle as well and have told them they have to hire them. Anyone reading this should have already made their decision by now! I cannot say enough good things about these guys. Thank you, John and Andre, for saving the day!!!

The crew was on time, helped us finish packing the odd items, and worked non-stop so that we actually finished a bit earlier then anticipated. They did an amazing job packing the container so tightly - there was no wasted space. Unfortunately we had more items then the container would hold and we needed another smaller container, To help us out they brought all of the excess items out of the house and into the garage so when we packed those items a few days later it was very easy, I would definitely use them again!

They did not pay attention to the stability of the loads. They damaged my dresser when it slid off their dolly and broke a chunk off the top right front corner about 2inches wide by 1 inch high about 1/2 inch deep. After they broke the dresser got careful for a couple trips but resumed taking unnecessary chances. They also crammed one of our cardboard boxes into a space about 2inches narrower than the box crushing both ends. I don't think I would recommend this crew to anyone.

Very respectful of my property. Broke down the furniture where everything fit compact and filled up all corners. I would definitely use them again.

The men who came to help with our move were wonderful, prompt, polite, and hard working! We really appreciate their help and will be calling them to help us unload a pod after our move.

The guys did a great job and were super quick! They did a very efficient packing job on my POD too. Thank you!
Christa B
Would definitely hire them again! They were professional, well-organized, and responsible for their work. They worked hard and finished everything well within their allotted time frame.
