Victor and Don were very nice and respectful of our property. They unloaded our truck in the middle of December, thankfully it wasn't snowing. They did a great job getting everything moved into our house and put the bed together. Victor called and said they were done early with their previous job and was able to arrive 30 minutes earlier than anticipated. I would recommend John 3:16 to anyone!

This team was amazing—truly five-star service! Their flexibility and willingness to accommodate last-minute changes was a lifesaver, especially since moving is so unpredictable. They worked with impressive speed while demonstrating exceptional care with every single item.

Let me start by saying they got everything inside without damaging anything I think. However, they were an hour late which wouldn’t be an issue normally, but they first called and said they were running a little late and wouldn’t be here until right at 1, which was the top of the timeframe given. Then said they wouldnt be here for another 20 minutes after that (again not a problem). Then didn’t show up until almost 2pm. They were apologetic and I wouldn’t leave a review for that alone. I hired them because I’m a Christian who thought a company with the holy scriptures for their company named would be professional and take their job seriously as working unto the Lord. However, one of the guys spent an hour trying to explain how I didn’t really know the truth and made it seem like I had been deceived and continued to berate me after I asked him to stop talking about this stuff multiple times. He was unaware of how rude he was being and I honestly just wanted them out of my house. I enjoy having some good discussion, but he did 95% of the talking and had trouble letting me speak. Continued to berate me for not being meek and made it seem like I was the problem being offended by him. Incredibly uncomfortable, and very unprofessional way to interact with clients. I’m cool with disagreement, but this was so awkward. They could have had all of our stuff in our house in an hour, but took them a full two hours because of this. After a 1300 mile trip with my family to move, this was terrible, a nightmare.

Mover's response:
We informed customer we were about 20 min behind schedule and this was his response "It’s all good! See you when you get here, no stress!" (Copied and pasted from text). Customer informed us he was a Chaplain). I asked if he picked us because of our name. He said yes and we started talking about it while we worked. We finished the job in under the time purchased. He was totally into conversing initially, but I believe he started feeling a way once I asked some questions he was unwilling or unable to answer which is fine until your pride causes you to get offended when you were not insulted. I find out through this review that the inability to answer my questions led to him feeling 'berated', and a desire to attempt to bruise our reputation by exaggerating our dialogue. He suggested ceasing the conversation but kept talking which was confusing. Even so much that I had to make the same recommendation to him. I did not speak 95% to his 5%, it was honestly closer to 55/45. It does not take under an hour to unload a fully loaded 16ft container into a 2 story house. I'm just glad we finished in the time allocated with no damage to property or belongings. The other part was.. unfortunate.

Other than arriving a bit later than expected, everything went really well and I'm happy with the service.
