The gentlemen were on time (even offered to come earlier) and they were polite & respectful. Packed up the entire kitchen in a couple of hours. I asked for them to leave me access to a couple of boxes and they not only did that but made sure I knew where they were and what was in them. Since I wasn't moving out of my house - just out of my kitchen for a remodel using Sitter's Movers gave me more than I expected by bringing the boxes and packing materials that I would have had to go and find and purchase. I would highly recommend using them.!!

The help was amazing! They were on time, hard working and extremely friendly and professional. They respected our belongings and were just overall awesome people! I would highly recommend sitters movers! My only thing that I am a bit frustrated about is that in order to change the date you have to give 24 hours notice which is totally fair.... my escrow date changed the day it was supposed to close and I had to push it back a couple days... I called 42 mins after the 24 hour window and they charged me $100... I understand the policy, but at the same time this was completely out of my hands. I asked if e could meet in the middle and if we could do $50, I am still waiting to hear back and it’s been 3 days. I would also like them to get an actual phone number, not a google voice number. It feels like no one is manning the phone and getting a hold of admin can be difficult. WITH ALL OF THAT SAID - I will be hiring them again to move us into our new home for sure!

Mover's response:
Joshua, thanks so much for your generous review and feedback! We admittedly have a lot of room for improvement in our admin department - not so much our people, but our approach and process. Will be working hard to improve and serve our customers all the better!

Anthony coordinated scheduling the time & my needs - everything. Very comprehensive, professional & courteous. Ira was the lead person and had a helper. Ira was very knowledgeable about how to load the Pod to insure things wouldn't move around & secured everything. Since I had extra room in the Pod, I put in a medium sized sofa & 2 chairs. This was no problem since Ira had all the wrappings to insure protection for all items. They worked really hard & fast to insure everything was loaded within the time limits. I will definitely use them again when I bring the Pod back and need to unload. Note: remodel so needed to unload all contents of my garage, living room, refrigerator and kitchen wares.

Jonathan and Kyle unloaded my Pack Rat Pod on 5/25/18. They arrived on time (10 a.m.) and ended the job at noon, working hard to complete everything within the two hour time frame. Both men were respectful of my belongings and of me, an essential aspect of my recommendation. Yes, they did a wonderful job and I would definitely use them again. Glad were suggested by Pack Rat.

The two loaders arrived on time. They were very polite and very professional. They came prepared with a dolly and shrink wrap to wrap around the blankets we had provided to protect the furniture. They worked very well together and loaded the 8x8x16 in two hours. Great job!

Awesome, polite, hardworking team. Finished faster than expected so helped us unpack some boxes and get beds set up. Would recommend this company and Charlie, Coz, & James who helped us move. We’ll use them again!

The employees of this company have gone above and beyond our expectations and I can highly recommend them. From the speedy initial point of contact with the person coordinating the move to the actual crew doing the work they were extraordinarily professional, hard-working, committed to excellence and customer satisfaction. Much unlike most other movers, Charlie, Coz (sp?), Josh, and James were the kinds of people we would personally invite over to our place any day without hesitation. Thank you for the outstanding work and for helping to make the moving process as efficient as possible! You guys were a fun, courteous, and energetic crew! Thanks again!

Get To Know Us

What can a customer expect after booking with you?

We will contact you via text and email within 24 hours of booking your order to acknowledge receipt and introduce ourselves. We will also call you two business days prior to the move to discuss the details of your move and answer any questions and/or instructions you have for us. You are welcome to reach out to us as much as you like to!

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

We will be on time. To be early is to be on time and our guys aim to arrive 15 minutes prior to the scheduled time to perform a walk through with you.

How should a customer prepare for moving day?

We will send you an email within 24 hours after booking a move with the best recommendations we have learned to offer over the many years we have been moving professionally.

What types of moves have you handled?

We have not seen it all (not sure that's possible). But we have seen a lot: tiny moves, entire furnished apartments buildings completely changed out, junk removal, billionaires with high-end homes, professional athletes, homeless (hey, they have stuff too and sometimes, ya just gotta help somebody), office moves, cross-country, international...the list goes on.

What's your favorite part about being a mover?

I started doing this because I wanted to get paid to work out. I'm still doing this because I find tremendous joy in serving people in a part of life that is often pretty stressful. It's very satisfying to tangibly see the work you've accomplished for someone else. Meeting new people, spending a lot of the day outside, seeing new parts of town are all pretty cool too :)

What training do you provide your crew members?

All of our crew are background checked and carefully screened. A crew member is required to have a minimum of 40 hours of on-the-job training prior to working for our customers.
