They did great. There was 3 guys. They had great attitudes. They helped me put things where I wanted it at. They moved one item 3 times. They were very courteous. They took a quick lunch to get the work done quick. They also helped with the garage. And they also put things in the attic.
Description of Work: They moved us, they spent 9 hours. It was a big job.

Moved residence on very rainy day. Took slightly longer due to rain, but group took care to ensure none of my possessions were damaged in move or during rain. During move, one of the drivers hit my fence with the moving truck. Sherman's stepped up and handled the damage without any issues.

These guys were just terrific! We knew the move would be expensive since we hadn't had time to pack much ourselves. They brought two crews of guys to pack everything up, which they accomplished very quickly considering how much they had to do. They arrived exactly on time, took NO breaks except for lunch, and worked hard the whole time they were on the job. They were extremely careful with our belongings and negotiated tight stairways with unbelievable skill. They were always polite and willing to do what we needed.
Description of Work: They packed and moved a 4000 square foot home that had a LOT of stuff!

The company was very responsive to a telephone inquiry-polite and professional. We purchased new furniture and needed someone to pick it up at the store and deliver it to our home and remove old furniture. They gave us an estimate of $200 and were willing to move quickly. However, our schedule did not mesh with the time frame needed so we used family help with trucks although this ultimately took longer.
Description of Work: We did not hire this company due to our time restraints.

My wife and I moved most of the little stuff and were primarily using them to move the furniture and heavy stuff. Within two hours they had everything out of the apartment and into the house. The only problem I had was that you have to trust that they are sending you the closest truck since you start paying from the time they leave the previous job. Other than that I was very happy and will definitely use them again.

They were very professional and very careful with my belongings. They showed up a little late but they called and they were very courteous. I was not aware that their clock starts once they leave their office. I thought it started when they arrived at my house.

They didn't break anything or scratch anything during the move. They did a very good job. They did a very good job fitting a very big bookshelf into my room. They would remove anything that I didn't like were it was located.

Arrived on time. Worked very carefully. Used pads to walk on outside. It was rainy and they did a good job keeping rain and mud outside. We had pre-packed and moved dozens of boxes ourselves. All they had to move was some furniture. Nothing extra-ordinarily heavy. Did not even fill a medium sized box truck. While they did a great job and were very careful, I think they moved a little slow. We were supposed to have three people and I think that would have speed things up significantly. One guy had to stay in the truck packing while another waited for him between each item moved. With three that we requested, one could have packed the whole time and the other two could have carried. It ended up costing way more than we had expected for such a small job. I would hate to have not moved most of the stuff myself. I can't imagine what it would have costed.
Description of Work: Moved 2 rooms and 1 storage Unit worth of furniture into new house.

Fast and efficient, they put blankets down to keep from tracking in snow and ice. Worked in freezing rain and still were done very quickly with 3 movers. No damage was noted to the items moved. I would use them again, they were friendly and professional.
Description of Work: Moved 780 square foot bungalow with basement to 2 story home with basement. Beds, furniture and boxes. Quoted and hourly rate minus Angie's List coupon. Came in under their estimated time to move but I had everything packed and organized for them.

This was the best move ever! The three moving men were totally careful never to even graze any of the newly painted walls. Their sure and gentle touch was maintained even as they had to maneuver very big items though very awkward passageways. They figured out a complex sequence of rotations and reversals to deliver a huge and tall computer desk into the least accessible room of the new house. They handled appliances so well that I wished we hadn't already moved our heavy TV. Their website has good specifics about fees and limitations.
Description of Work: Three fellows came promptly at our scheduled date and time to move household furnishings and appliances about four miles from the main floor and basement of one small local home to the sole floor and garage of another local home during a single morning. Items moved were: large desks, overstuffed and other chairs, futon sofa bed, queen bed, tables, shelves, refrigerator, washer, dryer, rugs, lamps, exercise equipment, and previously boxed-by-owner items.

They arrived 30 minutes late. They had only 2 men instead of the 3 requested. They had NO hand truck--so all boxes, even light ones containing Christmas ornaments, were moved ONE at a time. The guys were not bad but because the work was progressing so slowly I wound up moving a lot of the items myself. The Sherman hourly rate appears to be artificially low as they work more slowly than other movers I have used in the past. In the the end they also request that you evaluate them on-the-spot, instead of confidentially.

Our previous experience with a moving company eight years ago was a disaster, resulting in damaged and blood-stained furniture and dinged walls. So, we feared more of the same. We found Sherman based on Angie's List. Their on-line estimate was simple. A short phone call confirmed date and time. They arrived on time and were extremely professional and efficient. Moved everything without any damage. No breakage in boxes. Got done more quickly than expected (at less expense).

Very punctual. I've used this company four times in the last eleven years, and each time they were very careful, well qualified, and knew how to get the furniture in and out without any problems. I will definitely use them again.
