Showed up early. Very nice young men who made conversation but also knew the time frame to get it done. I didn't think it would all fit but it did into my Packrat. They were done 20 minutes early and made this as seamless as possible. Could not recommend them enough for anything you need.

I moved with two PODS and had two people from Helpful Movers assist me both times. They were on time, professional, friendly and awesome. There was good communication before and after the move. I would hire them again in a heartbeat.

These guys were all on time, all business, and worked hard. Completely moved us out of our 1000 sq ft 3rd floor walk up apartment and into a 16’x8’ POD in under 3 hours.

They did great work and were respectful.

They were wonderful and made our move smooth and easy. They brought their own dolly, tie down material for the truck we rented, and plastic wrap for furniture. They were careful with the items and nothing was damaged. They were efficient and professional. I highly recommend them! It was by far the best moving experience I have had. Thank you!

They were great! Showed up early and super efficient/quick. Very professional and knew exactly how to best pack our Pod. Also helped us when we weren’t sure how to wrap a couple of our awkward items.

Pam T

(5) 7/2/2022 Seattle

They called to see if they could come early. We worked out a time that worked for both of us.
They wasted no time and were very careful with our furniture and our new house.
They took extra time to help me wipe down our platform bed that had been in storage for an extended period of time and perfectly place the mattress.
I highly recommend them!

Once we arrive onsite we will do a brief walk through and then we will get started by prepping any furniture for loading and proceed to loading your Pod, Truck or Trailer.

How should a customer prepare for moving day?

The best way to prepare for your move is always organization, having walkways cleared for the movers so as not to trip over anything. If we are unloading a great time saver is to take post it notes label each room #1,#2 etc then as we are bring boxes in you can say that goes to room # this makes it much easier for you and saves you time and money!
