Both young men were awesome. They worked very hard and they took great care with my property.
It's hard now a days to find people who are respectful and responsible and who know the meaning of hard work and this line of work is very hard.
They were awesome and it was a pleasure to work with them. Please let them know I was very pleased
Sincerely
Janet R.

They kept me posted on when they would arrive. Upon arrival they introduced themselves, did a xss quick walk through to see where items went, moved all items where requested. Then they put some items together for us. Great experience.

Mover's response:
Thanks for the great review. We are glad we could help.

Once again a perfect packing of some large and delicate items. They really know what they're doing and get it right. Very flexible about rescheduling for an additional POD.

Mover's response:
We're so pleased we were able to assist all 3 days that we did. A move the size of yours can be tricky to plan especially when parking multiple containers at the location is impossible like in a case such as yours. I'm glad you folks had high spirits and rolled through the punches with us on 3 brutally hot days of Florida summer. All said and done 5k sq ft house and garage into 2 16ft PODS and a 7ft PODS, I'd say that's a win in my book.

On time and told me in advance their list for wrapping and boxing. Blankets!

Never seen a packing job so careful. Much better than the ones we did ourselves prior.

It's well worth it if they get 2 PODs worth of stuff in 2 PODs, so you don't run over and have to order a third smaller POD to take the excess.

No scratches or scuffs in the walls or wood floor.

I ordered an extra hour above what I expected it would take, so they could do a careful job. Don't go cheap and order an hour less to save money.

Hope I get unloaders at destination as good as these guys.

Mover's response:
Awesome review, Terry. We are happy we could help. As you have found taking sound advice from professionals goes a long way towards the outcome of your move.

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.
