We had booked for 2 men for 2 hours and 3 showed up which certainly expedited the process! They handled my items with care, they worked quickly and extremely efficiently. The only reason I’m not giving 5 stars is because at the end they made a rude comment regarding the tip we left. We left more than the standard 20% and even looked up the appropriate amount to be sure. It was an unfortunate and rude remark that left a sour taste in my mouth and I don’t know that I would feel comfortable referring someone to them.

Mover's response:
Our crews are expressly instructed not to solicit or talk about tips. The 1 crew member's comment about the usual tip per person is unacceptable and I apologize. He will be disciplined! It's my understanding he feels the tip would be normal for 2 men but because you had a free helper which saved an extra hour & money they hoped for a tip more in consideration of that. You didn't ask for a 3rd helper and you are under no obligation to tip, even for free labor.

The Promove movers were great for the unloading service I hired them for. Very quick, professional, and took care of my belongings as they were moving them from the truck to my apartment.

Our crew was super friendly and super efficient. They ended up having train trouble, but called to let us know in advance, which was very much appreciated. They even showed up with an unexpected, but certainly welcome extra helping hand. Our 2 BR apt was loaded and ready to go within 2 hours. The team exceeded our expectations in terms of what they fit in the truck as well as the care they showed with our items.

The team was excellent. They packed up our truck perfectly and quickly. They got all of our stuff from my fourth floor walk up in a very efficient manner. I would definitely recommend them again.
