Little Guys Movers

Overall a pretty good experience.  Four young men worked very hard in extremely hot weather moving furniture. There was some small damage done which I showed the workers plus I filled out a survey from the company. I have had no response at all related to this. That is the only disappointing part of the experience.

Great. On time, professional and courtious.

These guys are simply fantastic. Have had really bad experiences with movers that break your stuff and house. Not little guys. They were professional as heck and very concerned with doing a good job. Great communication as well. They were not the cheapest, but you really do get what you pay for. If you need something moved and want it done right your search is over!

From the first call for an estimate until I shook the young man's hand when the move was completed, Little Guys was top notch.  They were courteous, professional, careful with my things, and efficient.  The overall experience with this group was outstanding.  I will call and or refer them should I need movers in the future.

I first decided to try Little Guys Movers because they had great ratings, and because they were the only movers available on Sunday to schedule the move. My move situation came up suddenly so having a company available to schedule on Sunday was extremely helpful. The other moving companies I called only had answering services available not actual schedulers. Little Guys Movers were timely with the confirmation, detailed quote, and answering additional questions. My situation required them to meet me in a different city than where I live and they worked with me to coordinate the timing. They provided excellent protective coverage for furniture and a large screen TV to ensure no damage. They also placed packing blankets around door frames to protect against scratches etc. The move itself was smooth, timely, no damage to belongings, and cost about 1/3 less than other moving quotes received. Von, Kevin, and Ferrell were pleasant, thorough, and professional. I highly recommend this company!

I would highly recommend Little Guys Movers to anyone that is searching for a moving company.  They provided a two man team and did not damage any possessions during the moving process.  These gentlemen were courteous, helpful, professional, and punctual during the entire time.  We had to reschedule several times before our final moving date and the staff at Little Guys Movers were always willing to help us.  Also the cost was very affordable and there was no hidden fees at the end.

The move was made uneventful and easy.  The three men arrived on time, surveyed the job, went over paperwork with me, and then began the moving.  They were professional, efficient, and very thorough!  They accommodated me in double checking to see that we had all items in the truck and just were super nice!  The truck was definitely big enough and in past moves, that has been an issue.  It was not an issue with THIS company!!!  I was amazed at how quickly it was completed, just about 4 hours!  I definitely find them a great company to help you move.

The movers did a good job. They arrived on time, were friendly and professional and moved everything to our satisfaction. We would definitely use this firm again.

Little Guys Movers absolutely saved my move, and for that, they are more than deserving of a detailed and thorough review.  However, if you're short on time, the highlights of my experience are in bold.
[Background]
My husband and I conducted a recent interstate move using a pod storage & moving company.  Since we were storing as well as shipping, we were told upon placing our order that we were to call 7 days in advance of needing our unit, which would allow time for logistics, shipping to Nashville, receipt of the container at the Nashville facility, and delivery to our home.
When I was ready to set up final delivery, I called and was told 10 days was the absolute fastest I could receive the unit.  In addition, the "storage fee free" unloading week that had been previously mentioned was, in actuality, a strict 5-day courtesy grace period (which would be calculated using the days of the month remaining after the unit was picked up in August plus the days of the month prior to and including the pick up date in May).  If I exceeded the grace period, I would be charged a ~$250 May storage fee, which they do not prorate.
At the end of all my calls with many various agents/supervisors/managers, I ended up with the earliest possible delivery date, May 2nd, and pick up on the last day of my grace period, May 3rd (unit must be empty, clean, and unlocked by 7am).
Unless my husband and I could get our storage pod fully unloaded on the day it was delivered (with no foreknowledge of what time of day that might be), we would lose ~$250 to the company responsible for the time crunch in the first place.
[Booking Little Guys]
After doing some Angie's List research, I contacted Little Guys Movers (LGM) via email for a quote.  The quote I received was well out of our budget, so I moved on to looking at other options.  When "other options" came back comparably expensive but less well rated, I came back to LGM.  I explained how desperate my situation was and asked if there was anything that could be done to procure services that were in my budget (e.g. hire fewer men, send the crew back after a set amount of time whether the job was finished or not, etc.).
To my surprise, the manager, John Manning, emailed me personally after reading my email chain with the main LGM email address.  He let me know that my original quote was based on a miscommunication of how many units I needed unloaded.  The revised quote he provided was actually less expensive than the storage fee we would be charged if I didn't get the unit unloaded by May 3rd.
I was impressed and grateful that John took a personal interest in my booking, but I was even more impressed by his integrity.  My email to LGM fully expressed my situation--how tightly I was up against a wall, that I didn't have another moving company to go to, and that I was willing to pay the rate quoted (which I didn't yet know was mistakenly high) if I could cap the number of hours.  I never would have known if John and/or LGM took advantage of me, but what I do know now is that they had the opportunity to and didn't.
[Moving Day]
Close to the time they were scheduled to arrive, I received a call letting me know that the team assigned to us had been asked by the client they were currently with to stay later than he/she had originally booked and making sure that wasn't a problem for me.  The team also called when they were en route on my house.  (This was a positive communication experience, and should not reflect negatively on their punctuality.  They knew I requested that they come by as late as possible to avoid the possibility that they would arrive before the storage pod.)
Rob, Todd, and Brad's arrival was a pleasant surprise, because LGM provided us this three-man crew for the rate at which we had booked a two-man crew.  (Even though Brad appeared to be new, an extra man is always valuable.)  Rob went over all the fees and procedures with me before starting.
All three men were friendly while still being professional, in addition to being positive and kind.  I never once heard a complaint or negative comment about the amount of items/boxes, the weight of an item, or the location I requested something be placed.  They were just as careful when they first started as they were with our final pieces--laying moving blankets over hardwood, securing padding to the front doorframe, and using a hand truck/dolly that had been cleverly padded so it would not damage anything moved by it.  In just 1hr 45 min, the entire 16' storage pod was unloaded into the rooms I requested and the washer and dryer were properly connected.
Rob went over the final paperwork with my husband and me, and we were again pleasantly surprised to discover that LGM's policy of prorating to the quarter-hour applied even though the crew finished in less time than we had booked them for.
[The Crew]
I was extremely happy with the crew that we were sent.

Rob and Todd were both excellent leaders as well as movers.  Without ever slowing down the move, they taught tips and best practices to Brad while ensuring our items were moved properly and safely.  Rob was positive and upbeat from the moment he walked in the door, an attitude he actively shared with the other crew members.  Todd also made sure they cleaned up any trash they were responsible for before leaving.
Brad came to me immediately (after reporting the potential incident to Rob and/or Todd) to tell me that he accidentally stepped on the edge of a bag and thought he heard a popping sound.  He asked me to inspect the bag so I could let him know if anything was broken.  Luckily, it had just been a pop of bubble wrap, but I was impressed by a company (and a crew member) that would come to me to report possible breakage even though I didn't notice him step on anything and even though they were unloading a self-pack.
Overall, I was extremely happy to have worked with LGM, and I would both use them again and recommend them to others.

It took about 6-7 hours.  Very courteous.  Made us aware of any charges prior to actual moving.  Had a lot of communication with company prior to actual move.  Would definitely use again in the future.

Two bedroom apartment move. No issues encountered. Staff was very professional and helpful. Didn't think cost would be as high for the little stuff we moved, but would definitely use them in the future.

They were very professional.  They arrived on time. They had plenty of movers and trucks.  They dismantled any items, such as beds, bookshelves, washer, and dryer, that needed to be dismantled and moved them and put them back together at our new home. We were very pleased with their service.

Went well
