The movers arrived exactly on time, were prepared, friendly, and finished the job ahead of schedule. There weren't any problems with damage to furniture and they were careful not to scuff floors or mar the walls.

John and Ross were great. Arrived early, worked very efficiently, and even used their experience to go above and beyond and take charge loading the truck as well. Nothing damaged beyond the wheel of a suitcase. They finished nearly an hour ahead of schedule. Nice guys too. Highly recommend.

Malik was fantastic. On time, very helpful, worked hard the entire time, and was polite and respectful throughout the move. I would highly recommend Malik and PROMOVE to anyone looking for a helping hand!

This is the 2nd time I've worked with PROMOVE. They always arrive close to 5 minutes before start time, so that they can start working right away. They are incredibly polite, courteous, and careful. They work hard and are very good at what they do. They are the only movers I would use again and again!

On time, very quickly moved us in and adapted well to unforeseen circumstances (e.g. that my building did not allow for hand trucks), very polite, and would absolutely recommend them again. Thanks!

Malik, Malik and Ross were all awesome. Very nice guys and took great care of our stuff. Wish they could be there on the other end!

On time. Not prepared. I reserved 4 people. Only 3 showed. They were given explicit instructions on fragile boxes, and all boxes were marked with clear arrows to indicate the direction they should be packed, yet there were dishes and glasses in the van placed in a way that disregarded those indications. They were professional in demeanour, and did work hard, but could have asked more questions while loading the van regarding placement. The space could have been used better. I'd likely seek other companies in the future…and be willing to pay more. Having an extra friend to text communication during the move on site would be helpful.

Mover's response:
/0\ 4th man did show (u kno that) late because he replaced man who had family issue. DEFINITELY OUR FAULT. No added cost due to lateness. Our 2nd 3 star review where the customer disregards advice of crew who move everyday, then..... You said put fragile items on truck last and were advised it was a bad idea as we could pack more efficiently if fragile items were placed differently, at the end crew tried to fit all your stuff however they safely could, not pretty but most importantly, no damage
