Both men were efficient and polite. It was amazing to see how fast they were able to put all the various shapes of objects into the Pod. I highly recommend them as movers who load into containers!

Two guys showed up, unfortunately only one of them did all the work. The other guy was on the phone most of the time.
Felt real bad for the guys busted his ass off.

Mover's response:
No damage done to the home or furniture by us and we unloaded ahead of schedule. Just because one guy set up the dolly loads and the other guy ran them doesn't mean he did more work than the other guy. You may have saw one come inside more often but the other guy was doing things in the truck to make it go smoothly. By the way the guy that answered his phone ONCE and sent and received a couple texts-the one who was one his phone the whole time- his son was having surgery while he was unloading your truck and his wife was freaking out. Everybody is going through something, brother. We`re glad we could get everything done ahead of schedule, though.

Timothy and Tony arrived as scheduled. Immediately put me at ease and started to work quickly. Assessed what items to load first and checked with me often. I appreciate the kindness and effort they put forth to make my move less stressful. Highly recommend.

Get To Know Us

What can a customer expect after booking with you?

After booking with us you can expect a phone call from our offices just to reach out and get a feel for your unique situation. We will go over all needed supplies and firm up all the details.

What can a customer expect on moving day if they hire you?

Upon moving day you will receive a call from your movers within an hour of your booked arrival window. The movers will reach out just to make sure everything is still going according to plan and will give you their expected GPS arrival time. We know that nothing is more stressful than being nervous that the movers aren't gonna show up, so we like to put your mind at ease.

How should a customer prepare for moving day?

If you will be hiring us to load your rental truck, trailer or portable shipping container it is imperative that you provide an adequate amount of moving blankets, plastic stretch wrap and rope to avoid serious damage to your items. The blankets can usually be rented with your truck or portable shipping container and are worth every penny. We can provide rope and plastic wrap for an additional fee or it can be purchased at Lowe's or Home Depot in the moving supplies section.

What types of moves have you handled?

We have handled literally every type of move from local to long distance, from household to office/commercial. We have handled everything from medical equipment to flight simulators and we are equipped to move large items such as pianos and grand pianos.

What's your favorite part about being a mover?

Our favorite part about being movers is that we get to help someone with literally the hardest and most stressful task of their adult life.

What training do you provide your crew members?

All of our crew leaders are required to have a minimum of 4 years professional moving experience and upon hire, undergo at least 2 weeks of training with the owner of the company (a very particular veteran mover in the industry) before being set free to operate independently. All crew members undergo the same training and we typically only hire crew members who possess at least 2 years minimum professional moving experience. We don't send rookies, period.
