Great experience! The crew unloaded a full 16’ container and everything went very well. They worked efficiently, handled our items with care, and made the whole process stress-free. I’d happily hire them again.

This was y second time using "We pick things up and put them down." Both experiences were 5 stars, with great communication and service, respect for us and our space, and their willingness to go above and beyond to ensure the job is done professionally. They were on time, worked hard, and did a wonderful job securing our goods. I highly recommend them to anyone!

I had an excellent experience with the two movers from wemove things and put it down. I hired through HireAHelper. They were punctual, professional, and extremely efficient. They handled all my furniture with great care and worked quickly without wasting any time. Both guys were friendly, respectful, and knew exactly what they were doing. The move was completely stress-free thanks to them. I would highly recommend their services to anyone looking for reliable and hardworking movers!

The 2 men were on time. Worked hard, were polite and friendly. Very respectful and finished in a timely manner. Plus it was very, very cold and winy. It was a city move and everything went perfectly. I hope I never move again but if I do, I will hire them.

Get To Know Us

What can a customer expect after booking with you?

Customers can expect positive language on the job site, a workaround to any issues that may arise, an explanation of packing format, unwavering honesty, and that the customer will feel understood.

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

If it’s part of a move, your movers can take care of it for you. You’ll work with the professional movers that you hire to figure out an exact plan and what tasks you’d like them to handle.

How should a customer prepare for moving day?

Keep a running list of all the little things that have to get done, put into place kid or pet arrangements early in the morning, leave out some basic cleaning supplies, and do one last walk-through.

What types of moves have you handled?

We've worked for much different clientele from many different backgrounds, including businesses such as - Philly Pretzel Factory, Staging Theory (NJ), and TriggerHouse.

What's your favorite part about being a mover?

My favorite part of being a mover is being able to help others by giving back with a skillset that is bar-none.

What training do you provide your crew members?

When a person is hired to become a professional mover, they are constantly being trained and retrained due to one of our core values which is constant improvement. All of our movers are qualified pros with considerable years of experience. We set what we like to call the "Golden Standard" for our team and expect delivery every time, no matter how big or small the job is. Training is two-part: on-the-job experience and completing a virtual orientation process with our onboarding agent.
