Thunderhorse did a great job. This was an in place move and once our remodeling is done, we'd like to use the same guys again to move us back in to the house. That's assuming that Hire a Helper can schedule the job so that we don't get two cancellations!!

Mover's response:
Thank you for your feedback feedback. We will be looking forward to help you again.

These guys rock! We were moving from a 4 bedroom townhouse with 2 flights of stairs to a three bedroom ranch style house. They were prompt, courteous, professional and efficient. Incredible to see a well coordinated team at work. We needed them to handle moving the larger and heavier stuff my wife and I couldn't handle ourselves. They wrapped and loaded it all, filling the 17 ft. truck in 2 1/2 hours and unloaded it in 1 1/2. Even went above and beyond by taking a door off of the refrigerator, not so easy, to get it through the narrow opening into the kitchen and putting it back on again, good as new. They helped make this move a lot less stressful than trying to do it all ourselves. Would definitely hire them again and we highly recommend them. Thank you, guys.

Fantastic guys; bailed me out of a tough spot after one other company cancelled, and the replacement moving company failed to show or call. These guys showed up, looked at my stuff and my POD, and said it was an easy job. 5 hours later these two guys had practically emptied my house and completely filled the POD, working through the heat of the day to make it happen. Worth every penny. If you're thinking about booking these guys, just do it already.

We were Happy to help! Thank you for your great review!

Thunder horse moving arrived on time and ready to work. They had all of the materials required to pack my POD to have it moved to another state. When the POD arrived I was concerned that the items from my storage unit would not fit into the space. Jorge assured me that it would all fit and that I would have room to spare. He was right!!! It was 103 degrees and humid the day of packing and they did not stop once to take a break! I would use them again and refer them to everyone I know.

Mover's response:
Thank for taking the time to write a great review. We will be looking forward to work with you again!

The guys from Thunderhorse were awesome. They showed up 15 minutes early, and worked very hard to load (2) PODs for me. We had everything boxed, and the mattresses off the beds- (probably 100 boxes and a lot of furniture. The guys (4) got the job done very quickly. I was very glad I hired them.

Mover's response:
We highly appreciate your feedback. We were happy to help.

Thunderhorse movers arrived on time & were professional, very polite, enjoyable in every respect. They carefully packed my items & loaded them onto my PODS container, their truck in a reasonable length of time. They definitely helped take the stress out of my move. I know someday they'll 'ride high in the saddle', right up there with well~established moving companies!!!

Thank you for your great review and your best wishes towards our company, we haighly appreciated. *Thunderhorse Moving
