"Courteous and responsive staff who scheduled my move of items within the home within days. Flexible on timing and even offered to send movers at earlier time. Provided 3 men instead of 2 at the same price. The movers were personable, professional, took care with my belongings and my home. Were extremely efficient in disassembling and reassembling larger furniture for movement up and down 3 flights of stairs. Completed moving two bedrooms and a home office worth of furniture in less than 2 hours. I would highly recommend Sebastian Moving and should I need this type of service again I wouldn't hesitate to use them."
"Kimberly was professional. responsive, and incredibly helpful! Brandin and Cody who moved us, were absolutely amazing! They are personable, quick without sacrificing appropriate care of our furniture and delicate possessions and such a pleasure to work with. Couldn't recommend or praise them enough."
"The 3-person team to move our 3-bedroom house was on time and exceptionally efficient. I've had a horrible experience with a previous moving company (our first time using a moving company) making me very hesitant about the professionalism in the industry but this company has changed my views. I highly recommend Teleport Moving and Storage and will use them again if needed."
"Angel Movers were excellent from the first phone call through complete move. Rick was quite flexible in working with my schedule for pickup and delivery. The moving team (Moses, John, and Ferris) were very professional and pleasant to work with. They did a great job handling all out bulking furniture including a piano. Great company. Great team. Excellent work!"
"Without hesitation, I highly recommend Woody & Sons Moving. Definitely the BEST MOVERS we've ever used! The guys showed up on time and worked very hard all day. Amazingly, they took the stress out of the move with their teamwork, pleasant smiles, and reassuring demeanor. They made the whole day a breeze!"
"All went well except the truck broke down AFTER it was loaded. All items had to be loaded onto another truck. But the two movers were very professional and kept their attitude positive even though they had to sit and wait for new truck to arrive and then load new truck. These men were excellent employees in their work ethics and cheerful attitude. Worked extra hard to keep our move at the 3 hours."
"Checkmate movers did a great job in moving our belongings. They work quickly and are very courteous. Special attention to fragile items. Responded well to questions. If you're looking for good help at a reasonable price, Checkmate Movers can get it done."
"Bug burns moving company was very professional, punctual and affordable. They beat multiple quotes from other companies. I would highly recommend Big Burns Moving company and will us them again in the future if I need to move again."
"I called one day and they had three guys show up with their big truck the very next morning promptly at 9am. They worked fast and efficient. They were all a great pleasure to work with. They definately made my day a lot easier. There were no hidden costs, up front pricing. Loved doing business with Move-Rite and looking forward to using them again in the future."
You should consider hiring professional movers for moves that seem too daunting, dangerous, or involve large, heavy objects. The larger your home and the longer the distance, the more likely you are to need professional help. A moving service can take the hardest tasks off your plate and reduce the risk of personal injury. However, if you are only moving a few light items, you can save money by moving on your own and renting a truck. Keep in mind that a DIY move requires significant planning and time. A hybrid option is also available, where you hire movers just to lift and transport heavy items to your vehicle.
While it's not expected, tipping junk haulers is a kind gesture when the team goes above and beyond for piano disposal. Lugging and breaking down a piano requires specialized equipment, maneuvering, and a lot of strength. When your junk haulers take particularly good care of your home during the process, consider tipping between 10% and 20% of the total bill to split among the team or $10 to $20 per hauler.
The best ways to prepare for movers include decluttering and properly labeling boxes. Decluttering lessens the workload and ensures you are not bringing unwanted items into your new home. Labeling boxes lets movers know which rooms they belong in, reducing confusion when it's time to unpack.
