I hired Handy Hands Labor to help unload my truck into my new apartment, which was on the second floor of a two family house today. The two guys arrived on time and were wonderful and professional! They had to unload my packed 20’ Uhual truck and carry my furniture and bins and boxes up turning steep steps to get from the street to the house and then go up a narrow steep set of stairs to my new apt! It started to rain and I got a call from Marshall to check if I wanted them to keep working thru the rain (showed concern for my things getting wet) and once I gave the go ahead, they continued to work. It went a little over the scheduled 2 hours that I hired them for, but considering how hard they worked and how much furniture and boxes they had to bring up, I was not complaining for the overage!! I would definitely use them in the future, but next time I will pay for a little more time upfront so i don’t have to worry about paying for more time at the end!! I’m a pack rat who had a LOT of stuff and should have made it for 3 hours instead of just 2!! All worked out as they stayed about 20 mins past the 2 hour mark, but I had to pay for a full hour! The stairs and rain definitely affected the timeline!!! Lesson learned... always check the weather!!! Mother Nature can really mess up your move!!! Big THANK YOU to Handy Hands for being polite and helpful during a stressful move!!!

There was a misunderstanding, they did not have the tools needed to do their job. I communicated they needed a dolly and straps. Ended up taking an hour longer due to the wait for tools which never came.

Mover's response:
Please refer to our other reviews. Customer did not have any dolly request and we supplied a 3rd guy to help at no additional charge. Customer had heavy dressers that were fully packed and wrapped with plastic wrap. So we took off the plastic wrap and drawers and rewrapped the dressers with the drawers once loaded. We supplied the plastic wrap at no additional cost as well. The job took 3 hours to load a 26ft truck from a second floor which is actually good timing considering what we did with the rewrapping as well. Thank you for the business.

The men were professional,friendly and courteous. They demonstrated wisdom in their strategy on the best way to load the truck without damaging the furniture. They were hard working and I would definitely use them again and recommend them to anyone who is moving.

Great experience.
They showed up on time and worked quickly (nice when the clock is ticking $$) and, perhaps most importantly, were careful and respectful of our stuff as well as our new apartment.
