(5) 6/27/2018 Manhattan

These guys were great! On time, professional, and very good at uhaul tetris. Would absolutely hire them again.

Mover's response:
On time and professional is what we would like to be our minimum standard and we're happy we did a good job.
If Uhaul tetris were a real thing I would definitely be challenging for the high score. Kirk, Promove team lead. Thanks for the review Loring and for hiring us

Patient, friendly, and helpful. They all worked hard, were willing to contribute ideas (and just take direction), as needed, throughout the project. They worked hard and we were very happy. Would hire them again. Thank you!

One of the best experiences I have ever had with movers. They were there on time, very professional, efficient, hard working, enjoyable and excellent at packing a very limited space in a secure manner. I will definitely be recommending PROMOVE to anyone I know that is looking for help. Thanks guys!

Mover's response:
Wait, just one of the best!? We must become THE best! Who in the world are the guys who did the best? Did they bring cookies? I bet they brought cookies, I'll tell Terrel & the rest of the guys we have got to start taking along some cookies, it had to be cookies, or cake, people love cake. We're happy you're happy. Can't get over your dog having a Xanax prescription tho, talk about 1st world problems. Kirk, Promove team lead. Thanks for reviewing us as well as for hiring us

Yep that sounds like Promove! Seems like we hit it out the park on your move, wow 10/10. Happy we got it right on this one.

(5) 6/13/2018 Brooklyn

Great movers! They were a few minutes late but text me as soon as they knew they weren't going to be on time. My move went really fast and they were very friendly to chat with during the process.

Mover's response:
I arrived 11 minutes into the one hour arrival window due to the MTA's spectacular train service but not actually late for the job and Dee was there before the beginning of the window because that's just how he rolls, he also walks with what to me looks like a pimp stroll but maybe that's just me. and also way besides the point. Kirk, Promove team lead. Thanks for your review Jenni and for hiring us

Mover's response:
In this case I don't think I would mind us being used again, please do. Kirk, Promove team lead. Thanks for hiring us Eluma and thanks for the review

(5) 5/31/2018 Manhattan

They were punctual, professional, well-prepared, and hard working. They really knew how to pack our things efficiently and securely. (And they dealt with my father-in-law's "help" directing things with good humor and grace.)

Mover's response:
Ah yes, dads and moving. They've usually done a few and usually have more than 2 cents to add. We understand and appreciate the patriarchal desire to influence the proceedings and will accommodate their "help" and input unless they are screwing things up, if they are I will overrule your dad, sorry. I'll be polite though but I can't let him get stuff damaged. He wasn't that bad. Kirk, Promove team lead and also dad whisperer. Thanks Kelsey

Mover's response:
You won't find many carefuller! We're happy you're happy. Tell everyone!
Kirk, Promove team lead. Thanks for your review Paul and thanks for hiring us
