He gave me the best estimate and we really liked them. We have decided not use them because we are going to sell all our furniture in Ohio but we would have used them. Andrew was great.

They overcharged me. They packed up and lost the remote for my sleep number bed So I've had to sleep on the air mattress for the last couple of weeks. There is not a remote on the side of the bed you have to use the remote and I had to pay $160 a piece for them so I could get my bedroom finished. Their truck broke down in the driveway so the hydraulic lift wouldn't work. I thought they were packing my stuff and putting it on the truck. They had stuff lined up the length of the hallway which is a real long hallway all of the way to the elevator. There were 7 guys there, and I don't know who was watching my stuff, but they said they had written down everything that was in the boxes. My stuff was left alone there from 9:00 in the morning until about 2:30 in the afternoon. They said that the guy driving the truck was waiting for the guys on this end to show up. The guys were dirty, their clothes were tattered and were unsavory characters.
Description of Work: They moved me and cleaned.

Very fast and efficient. They packed all of our belongings as agreed but would not buy back any of the boxes after we completed the move and didn't hook-up the clothes dryer. They did graciously agree to come back a couple of days later and take care of the dryer and even moved a piece of furniture and took back those boxes that we had unpacked but we still had/have a lot of boxes to unpack (and try to get rid of) and I didn't get the feeling that they would have come back again at a later date and time. I would recommend that they have a box buy-back program to be more fair to the customer. They also were a bit pricey after we had a chance to evaluate all that was done and the money we had to pay but the staff was very friendly although sometimes they put boxes in the wrong room but so much was going on at the same time. They were very fast.
Description of Work: Prepared a prompt and informative proposal. Quickly executed the move

The service went great and I thought it was a really good deal. The 2 movers they sent over did an excellent job. They completed the move in about an hour and a half. They were very hard workers. They were very responsive and scheduling the deal was easy.
Description of Work: I purchased a deal for a 16 ft. moving truck and a 2 man crew for 2 hours.

I was told that Matt Schrader would be here between 3-4pm today for an estimate on moving. It is now 5pm. I called and cancelled. My husband came home from work early to be here for him. If you can't be here on time, the least you could do is call.

Terrible... They were 6 hours late and the 2 movers argued the entire time. 1 of them was over weight and out of shape which prevented him from being able to assist as he should. Therefore leaving the other guy to do twice as much work. Ultimately this caused them to take twice as long as it should have (maybe that's why they ran so late) but then they had the nerve to try and charge me for an extra hour! NEVER AGAIN...

They arrived right on time and worked very efficiently and quickly. The guys were very professional and helpful throughout the move. They even rearranged the bedroom twice and helped carry an area rug out of the basement. I will be moving the rest of my furniture after we have our wood floors refinished in 2 weeks. I plan to use their service again and request Paul and Jered. I was very pleased with this service.
Description of Work: The provider moved 2 bedroom sets and family room furniture.

It was ok. There were no serious problems. There was some breakage and I might consider another company if I were moving again. The price was good but I felt the moving might have been done just a little better.

The move from apt to home went well – 3 movers came and did the job same day. The move from the town 70 miles away to same new home did not go well – some items were damaged in transit, and storage facility and movers each blamed each other for the damage. Since I could not make the trip taking items out of storage, I was left resource less for repairs.

They were really affordable. They were very organized and I have moved several times in my life and they were by far the best moving crew I have worked with. They were all stand up guys and great to my kids. They went above and beyond and moved my furniture around for me to get it where I wanted it. It was actually cheaper to hire them than to rent a U-Haul and do the move ourselves. They were very easy to communicate with and there was no damage to my furniture or anything else.
Description of Work: They moved us to our 3 bedroom house to a new state.

It turned out pretty good. They helped us move a lot of stuff. They were accommodating. We did not have any major issues with them. They sent 4-5 movers out to help with the move and we used 2 trucks for the move. Their price was reasonable and they were competitive.

The service went well. They were awesome. They had a great attitude. They were great people. I would highly recommend them. I would give them an A for excellent. The quality of the work was exceptional and they exceeded my expectations. They were responsive after I called them on a Monday and they were able to accommodate a Saturday move. They were very quick. They were on time and punctual, maybe even ahead of schedule. They were all professional, professionally dressed and they were a great company to work with.

These guys were awesome. They helped move all of my large furniture (Bedroom sets, couch, grill, ext). They made the move look easy, worked fast and efficiently. They also made sure to complete the move in the 2 hour window so that I wouldn?t get charged for any time over the 2 hours. Would definitely use this company again!
