Great guys! Worked hard in 90+ degree weather and knocked the job out in record time. Would hire again.

Torn with this review. They were on time and worked very hard, but they were young and obviously inexperienced for moving and unloading. Unloaded boxes were stacked haphazardly. There was enough planning and prep on my part that if they had been stacked properly would have left room to maneuver. As it is, I have to restack everything ASAP in order to get to around my place so I can then unpack. And I know they were tired (there were stairs), but towards the end they started bumping furniture and boxes around a little. After this I would not hire them to load a truck at all, but in a pinch I would hire them to unload knowing I might need to be on top of overseeing them throughout the process, depending on the experience level of who they sent.

The two men were right on time and worked very efficiently. They were careful with my things and packed well. They had the giant puzzle of my pod packed right to the door!

I would absolutely use Rent the Help again. They were able to arrive HOURS earlier than my appointment when I let them know that my POD had arrived early. The two young men were respectful, efficient, and careful.

The two gentlemen upheld the highest standards in every facet of the job. They were prompt, knew the job, were professionally direct and efficient. I can't say enough about the quality of their work.

Our guys love meeting new people and helping them navigate an extremely stressful time. Every day is a new adventure and we embrace that.
