The workers arrived on time, assessed what they needed to pack in the container, and went about doing their usual efficient job. I was especially pleased when they asked me before taking something to load if it was unclear whether it was to go or not. I would recommend them to anyone needing help in loading and unloading their household possessions during a move. Additionally, they had a pleasant manner while working, which is certainly a plus since moving is difficult and not always fun!

Mover's response:
Once again thank your for your feedback Loretta! we were glad we could help. Thank you

The workers were extremely proficient, and quietly completed loading the container in our close-knit community. In fact, they did the job so well by packing everything compactly that it was overweight for our crosscountry move that they are coming back to unload some of the contents into another container. Can't thank them enough!!! I just have to remember not to put so many books on one load!

Mover's response:
We were Happy to help with your move. Thank you for choosing Thunderhorse Moving!

Arrived on time. Jorge (supervisor) was very professional and explained the contract to me. All the movers were very professional and helpful in making recommendations to transport my belongings safely and securely. They were very efficient in utilizing the time. Definitely would use them again and also will recommend them to friends and family.

On Time, actually offered to start early if we were ready and able. Came prepared with extra moving supplies and misc items. Very friendly, quick and got the job done while being careful to not damage anything. I would recommend them for your moving needs.

They arrived early and ready for work. Needed help moving heavy items and loading a truck. Our man in charge was only 20 and they were very respectful to his instructions. They were skilled loaders which helped. I would use them again

I would like to open with a simple statement: Steve and Mario set the bar for how all moving companies should be. They were right on time, were fully loaded with supplies, worked very hard, and they took time where necessary to make sure that my property was safe and secure. I had to drive from Los Angeles to North Carolina and every piece of my property was in perfect condition when I unloaded. I would recommend this company, and especially, Steve and Mario to anyone and everyone. It is good to know that there are still good hard workers out there. Thank you very much.

Mover's response:
We highly appreciate your great feedback. Thank you

These guys were awesome! At 7:00 my phone rang and Miguel was calling to touch base with me about the ETA- they weren't due until 10:30-11:00! I explained my POD had a window of time to be be dropped and they arrived later, right when it came actually, so as not to be sitting and on the clock- so thoughtful. Due to no space for the POD, it had to be dropped a significant distance down the street and they worked tirelessly in the heat walking back and forth unloading all my things in that 16' unit! He was, again, conscientious of the time and they finished in four hours. They never stopped for lunch, I know they were drinking water as I saw empty bottles but I never saw them pause to drink. They were true work horses. They put things together for me, and were completely courteous and careful with all my things. Highly recommend them.

Mover's response:
Thank you for your feedback. We are glad to help.
