Our guys were great! A different company had packed our container and the items were jumbled and disorganized with some things broken. The Perkins team carefully unpacked the mess and were friendly, courteous and professional as we asked them to place our items in the house.

Terrell with Perkins Packing & Moving did a phenomenal job and we literally couldn't have gotten our truck packed to move without him!! He was highly professional and got the job done quickly and efficiently! I will never forget how great of an experience this was and how thankful we are for how dedicated he was to helping us move. He maintained communication with me prior to arriving and still made it work better than we could have ever asked for after driving 3 hours from a previous job and being down a helper. We were blown away by how smoothly everything went with his expertise! If you are in need of packing and/or moving labor help, don't hesitate to call Perkins Packing & Moving!

Efficient and got the piano moved quickly and, if needed, I would use you again.

But they did arrive almost a FULL HOUR BEHIND PLANNED SCHEDULE.

We did get a phone call after waiting over 30 minutes, saying that they were 20 minutes out.

The key problem was WE had no way to see if they were on the way.

Mover's response:
Perkins Packing & Moving is here to take your stress away. After reviewing your order I see hire a helper booked you for last minute next day booking for a 10-11 arrival time. We also see where Hire A Helper double booked you and out of courtesy we waived the cancellation fee for you to cancel the 2nd booking for a 9-10 arrival. Perhaps that’s where the confusion occurred? You were set up for a 10-11 arrival time meaning the crew is to be expected within the hour window. The crew attempted to call the morning of your service date to give you expected time of arrival and discuss any concerns but reached your voicemail which was unable to receive messages. The crew also followed up with a 20-30 minute call ahead to update you with ETA and arrived within the 1 hour arrival window. We apologize for any misunderstandings however the crew was on time. We appreciate your feedback!

This company is absolutely outstanding. They moved my Mom into her new home and could not have been better. She is thrilled. They were courteous in all aspects, extremely hard-working, accommodating to all of her needs, and kept her up to date promptly through all phases. We are their newest loyal clients!!!!

Thank you Dan, We appreciate your feedback!
