The men from Southern Cross Moving were very conscience and courteous. Unfortunately rain moved in soon after the unloading began. The men continued moving our belongings from the trailer into a storage facility only taking quick breaks during the heavy downfalls. We really appreciate the work these men did. Greg was very diligent in ensuring that the move went as quickly and smoothly as possible.

Mover's response:
I was on this job because we were booked up for the day all crews were out. Once I seen how much had to be unloaded I called another crew to come up an hour away and help. With the rain it made it more difficult. We got the job done and it only went past time reserved by one hour. We will do what ever it takes to make our customers happy even if sometimes it costs us more to get the job done. Thank you so much for that review.

Greg Geffee was very professional, knowledgable and helpful. He and his team were a pleasure to work with and a great value for the job we required. We would highly recommend them and will definitely use them again if the need arises.

Mover's response:
Well that is great to see my name in a review when I was not on the job. My job is a lot easier then my guys trust me. I have been on plenty of jobs and what they have to do sometimes is very hard. Our pricing is not the highest but our service is which makes it a great value. We all love our jobs and the fact that we help a lot of people accomplish things that they can't. True definition of help. Love it daily God Bless...

Just a wonderful group of young men! They really take pride in their work and they are very hardworking. They arrived exactly on time! I have used several movers from other companies and none are even close to Southern Cross Moving. I highly recommend them!

Mover's response:
Good stuff right there thank you so much for that review. Like I stated a couple reviews ago " #1 in this area and #20 nationwide" there is an outstanding amount of pride in saying that and this guys work there tails off every time out. We do over 1,200 moves per year and try to make everyone of those customers happy. The more customers you have the more chance you have into running into customers that you just cannot please. It is just part of business unfortunately but that does not stop from

We hired Southern Cross Moving thru the PODS website. Price was a factor but more that that were the posted reviews.. We would like to add our review to that website. We were moving a two bedroom home into a POD. Two helpers were scheduled to arrive at the job between 8 and 9am. But 9:30am I was becoming concerned that they would show up. At 9:40am Bryan and Roosevelt arrived. The job was explained to them, they began to work like a well oiled machine. Both were well spoken, respectful and possessed a understanding of how a truck or POD should be organized and loaded. At 10:41am (yes one hour and one minute) Bryan and Roosevelt had completed the job and were on their way!! Remember--a two bedroom home! We would most assuredly hire this company again. Bryan and Roosevelt are great ambassadors for this company.

Mover's response:
All my employees speak fluid English and are drug tested and background checked. This is for your convenience and knowing that you are hiring a great company and you will get the move that you paid for. Thank you for that review and it is definitely the first time they have been referred to as ambassadors and not movers. Great review!!!

The movers were late and didn't contact me until after I called the main line. They updated me following that and arrived within the hour. They came prepared with a dolly and had tools to reattach a mirror to a dresser. They worked quickly and carefully, were friendly, and they gladly put together bed frames and the mirror. I would recommend them and use them again.

Mover's response:
Thank you so much for leaving a review of your experience with our company. Once the leave the shop and run into traffic or any other issues the movers are supposed to call customer and let them know that the are running late. Here at the office their start time allows them ample time to get to job site. Once they showed up they got the job done like always.

These guys were awesome!! They were very flexible and let me make a change to the number of movers and time of arrival the day before. They were very efficient and self motivated. They kept going and got everything done in less time than what I estimated. Their price was less than all other bids. There was no damage from them, and they were friendly and polite. I don't think I could've expected anything more! I highly recommend them.

Mover's response:
Wow!!! Outstanding review thank you so much for taking the time to write that. We are number 1 on this website and many others because my guys take every move seriously and they want to stay on top. There is a lot of pride with being #1 in our area and #20 nation wide. Great job guys!!!

If you want people who don't show up on time....People who are in a big hurry to get done ,and damage your new house and furniture...If you want the helpers who are on the phone instead of working....If you believe the person in charge that all damages would be fixed within 24 hours, and it's now going on two weeks.... If you want to pay top dollar for this kind of help.....This is the company for you! I would never use this company again!

Mover's response:
With almost 500 jobs completed in 4 years on hireahelper we have had only 1 star review before this. We take our reviews very seriously. As a company we have grown to the top rated moving company in our area. I had to hire new employees and this crew did not work out and have been let go. So about the poor performance.

What's your favorite part about being a mover?

Our favorite part about this business is helping people that don't have the time or physical ability to do it themselves. I hear from a lot of our customers how they moved themselves so many times but are just to old to do it anymore. That is we come in for their first experience with paid movers to show them how stress free it can be at an affordable price.

All crew members are ran through a wrapping and loading class at our warehouse before going on their first job. Proper technique on wrapping furniture to minimize damage and then loading of trucks,pods, and storage units.
