The company that came did a wonderful job. They were on time, courteous, friendly and extremely professional. They did they work as assessed in a very timely manner. I would hire them again.

The guy's I used were just okay. I don't have rave reviews for the company I used here in AZ. He could have been better prepared. He forgot to bring tools with him to reconnect my bed and such. They got me moved into my home but that's about it.

Mover's response:
WE have tools on every job which are used to assemble anything that we are asked to.. The only reason something wouldnt have been put together was because we were told it wasnt necessary. Im sorry we didnt meet you expectations, in the future if there is something you would like us to complete for you please make sure you tell the guys before they leave, they are there to help.

These guys were OK. They didn't seem to want to use their own equipment...and they didn't even offer it up either. I had to make them use their own stuff to complete the move. They provided no real help other than moving what I asked them to move...and frankly my truck wasn't loaded properly. I'd only use these guys if you have a local move. I had a 24 foot truck...and the dude couldn't even help load everything right.

Mover's response:
I apologize for you not being satisfied with our service but we always bring our own equipment and intend to use it on every job. Im not quite sure what stuff you had to make us use but we did use the equipment that we brought. I thought that was what we were there to do, (move what we were asked to). Not every client wants us to help with everything maybe you were the exception but considering the layout of your housing complex there is only so much that could have been done with limited time

OUTSTANDING !! John & his associate were on time, professional, & completed my move without any damage to my things. They take pride in their work & they busted their butt 3 hours straight without stopping. I will recommend John Normandin to my friends & co-workers. If you want quality movers at a fair price...Call/Email John Normandin @ Rent-A-FriendAZ.com.

Mover's response:

We look forward to serving you in the future. If there is anything else we can assist with don't hesitate to call.

It was a complicated job. 1 pick up locations and 3 drop off sites. Very well coordinated as far as packing the truck in proper order. They did not have to unload and reload items at each drop off location. Price was very reasonable and everyone was professional and courteous. Only one small problem. Movers did not look at a map before they set out for the job site. Had to guide them in over the phone. Other than that, very happy.

Mover's response:
We have A GPS device we use to located address which are not always accurate, as well as printed maps which also may not always be accurate. We appreciate the opportunity to assist you and hope we can work together in the future.

I was in a pinch and needed help moving. I found the rates to be reasonable so I decided to book with John Normandin. When he called me the day prior to coordinate the job he sounded professional and like he knew what he was doing. I told him that there would be two guys to help, and that we would try to have a lot of the prep work done before he got there. He told me not to worry about taking the drawers out of the dressers and that he would shrink wrap them so the drawers didn't come open. This never happened. Upon arrival he was obviously annoyed that my fiance's friend was running a little late due to a family emergency the night before. He proceeded to make comments that insulted my fiance's strength and capability of moving heavy items. When my fiance's friend arrived in time to assist with unloading the truck, he made several comments about how he "arrived just in time", and he was "lazy" because he slept till 10:00 am. (He had been at the emergency room with his wife till 3:00 a.m.). He also at one point told our friend in a very condesending manner to " be sure not to strain a musscle". I found this to be rude, insulting, and very unprofessional. On antoher note, he used an applaince dolly to move my refridgerator but did not strap it on. When he pulled it out of the house I was vacating it bounced pretty hard down the step, and now my compressor is not working, and I am having to buy a new refridgerator.
In closing, I would like to say that I think the concept of this company is brilliant. However, I do feel that the people being sent out should not be condesending to the clients, and should take more care and not skip steps when moving people belongings. Not only did I have to pay the $144.00 for his hour and a half of help, but now I am looking at having to spend $1100 to replace my refridgerator. I am honestly not sure if I would refer this company to anyone, and I know for sure I would NOT even think about recomending Mr. Normandin. I

Mover's response:
When only one helper is requested we rely on the customer to supply adequate and capable assistance to complete the job when this is not provided it makes it very difficult to complete the job safely and properly. The dressers were already taped shut to secure them that is the same job that the shrink wrap would have done resecuring them would have wasted time, blankets were used to protect from damage. The 2 fridges were unhooked when we arrived no way to know if they worked in the first place.
