My job required taking apart, moving and reassembling several beds, so I particularly wanted experienced movers, which John and his helper definitely were. They were very careful to avoid dinging walls, etc., and got the beds quickly moved and reassembled. Since we hadn't used up their 3-hour minimum, they then volunteered for some outdoor end-of-season jobs, including taking off all the porch and window screens and storing them in the basement. We were very satisfied with the service. I thought their rate ($80/hour) was fair for the kind of work I wanted. I would probably not use them for more routine jobs because I could get local people for less.

They were very flexible when we had to reschedule our move. They were able to come out just when we needed them! They were both very professional, and worked very hard, quickly and carefully to move our stuff into our condo. They even assembled some of our furniture.
We will definitely use them again if we ever need things moved, and would definitely recommend them. They made our move in much less stressful!

John's helping hands was a delight to deal with. He called promptly, had a wonderful can do attitude, easily accessed our needs and followed through perfectly. He showed up on time, was more than prepared for the job( helped us out by using his truck versus our little car) and did the job quickly and carefully. We look forward to working with him again.

Mover's response:
Thank you Michelle. It was a pleasure to work with you and your Daughter. She is delightful, well organized and helpful.

John's Helping Hands did a great job helping me move furniture and boxes from my home to a storage unit. Although they were slightly late in arriving they did communicate with me regarding the delay to set expectations. Once they arrived they were professional and competent, completing the job within the two hour time frame I had requested. I would recommend John's Helping Hands to others.

Mover's response:
I was happy we could help. Thank you again for your business. John

John, Chris, and Enoch were wonderful. They worked very hard and did a great job at packing the truck. They stayed past the scheduled time and didn't leave until the everything was loaded, even the car on the car trailer, through pouring rain. I would recommend them to anyone who needs help moving.

Mover's response:
Thank you Elmer, and everyone who helped. We really appreciated the work, It was a pleasure to help you. You made a potentially rough day delightful. We also appreciated the pizza.
