We Pick Things Up and Put Them Down was great! Thank you!

The guys did a great job, in spite of the challenges of my building and the oppressive humidity that day. They were later than expected, but Karim kept me posted and was very communicative about their ETA. Both guys were very friendly and professional. Would absolutely recommend them!

We recommend these gentlemen wholeheartedly 100% strong, organized, professional, personable. Good people, excellent at what they do. Explained everything thoroughly, before the move began, during the move, and checking in frequently to ensure satisfaction. They were very careful of the walls, the hardwood floors, all of our furniture, boxes, etc. Careful with items marked fragile. Just a really really good experience to close out a long arduous cross country move.

Top notch! They showed up right on time and worked super hard and efficiently. Job was loading boxes (some fragile) from a storage locker onto a Uhaul truck. They did an amazing, careful job with the loading so that nothing would shift—true pros. Indeed, their skills and work ethic are the best I’ve ever had among movers. If you want a truck loaded well, hire them!

These two young men were prompt and went about their chores quickly and efficiently. They listened to our requests and then were done in an hour and 15 minutes. Courteous and helpful they removed doors and moved everything. Thanks to bothj.

We ordered a big pod for our Florida move. I would highly recommend this moving company and the 3 men that did our job. Ontime and respectful. We were nervous that everything was going to fit in the pod. But they kept assuring us it would.. we are magicians ?? and everything did!
Thank you!

Worked together very well and were super strong with moving all my heavy furniture. Very polite as well.

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.
