The guys that came to my home were courteous, prompt and careful with everything they moved. I would recommend this service to anyone who is facing a move. They took a lot of pressure off me.

They were excellent. Kevin and his team were early and completed all the work earlier than I expected it would take . Kevin in particular worked extremely hard.and was conscientious and respectful of my things and me. I would definitely hire them again.

Kevin Carter and his crew (I have misplaced their names written down, I apologize to them!) were extremely nice to work with. On time, got right to packing the Pod, were very quick and thorough doing so. They helped place items that weren't going to fit in the container in the shed so the last walk through that evening by the buyer and realtor would show the openness of the house and garage. Very polite, informative and personable. It was a pleasure to have them helping that morning.

Kevin and Billy were in communication with me on my moving day and helped me to complete the job in a timely manner. They were very kind, helpful and I would definitely recommend them regardless of how large or small your job is. Thanks for the great work!

They were on time for their estimate, but considering it’s very warm I think they should have started earlier so not to be in the hottest part of the day. They had 4 hrs, then we had to pay considerably more for each hour, as the time got shorter & it got warmer they got slower, except for the youngest guy, he was amazing. A 4hr job took almost 7 and they charged for every minute, not to mention they got sloppy packing and now we will have to pay extra for our trailer & they left things behind. They were polite and friendly, but we won’t use them again.

Mover's response:
Thanks for your review. But you pick the time for us to load . For one you only had 12 total moving blankets so we had to stretch wrap over 30 items including the section sofas etc.. Also you cancel us at first and went with another company and they wouldn't even do the job . I told you when I got there it was no way you probably can get all that in 20 ft. We pack this 26 foot feight trailer to the ceiling other than 4 ft of the back of the trailer which had big items like the sectional and double door refrigerator. This was an unrealistic job from the start . They tip each of us a 100.00 never once did he complain . We did everything he asked .I even vacuumed the rug before we put it on . He is just unhappy on the extra amount of use of trailer . It's stated when you booked jobs like this that you need to book 5 to 7 hrs . No I see why the other guys left the job . I wish I had took that in consideration. This definitely a learning experience.

Carter Moving was an amazing team! They showed up early and finished early, working quickly and efficiently. They had no trouble keeping all my furniture safe while they worked hard to unload the moving truck into the places I wanted. I hope I can use them next time I move.
