A+ labor solutions Profile Image

We would highly recommend A+ Labor Solutions to anyone for any moving needs. They arrived on-time within the time window of our selection. The three-man crew took extreme care with every piece of heavy furniture. They took time to shrinkwrap each piece that needed it and added a blanket for extra protection, as needed. They made sure that doorways and walls did not get banged by heavy furniture that was being carried out of the former house and into a new house. They were very polite and respectful. Moving at anytime is a difficult task; however, A+ Labor Solutions made it an enjoyable experience.
