They arrived on time and took the time to organize our boxes and items to make sure that the space in the container was maximized. Responsible, attentive, careful, and professional. Highly recommended!

Professional, strong, and courteous! They did a great job loading (like a puzzle—Karim used up ALL the space in the pod! No space wasted! Did a fabulous job!! Nothing damaged or broken!!) and unloading the pods ! I would use this team again in a heartbeat! Super nice crew!

The guys were great, very hard working and excellent at packing a lot of stuff in minimal space. They absolutely deserve 5+ stars!

Karim and his crew were efficient, fast, and very helpful. They were respectful, careful with our belongings, and made the whole move easy. Great communication, professional from start to finish, and I’d definitely use them again.

These guys are the best! I highly underestimated how much stuff I had to move and how long it would take but they stayed until the job was done.

Highly recommend! For a job I thought would take 2 hours they did it in 45 min! So quick! Rasheed and D were so polite, on time and respectful. You should request them! I would use this company and workers again :)

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.
