Hired 2 worker only one showed up. Hour later the 2nd showed up. No adjustment in payment amount. they caused damage to the screen door. They would not admit damage, forced my daughter tot text and say there was no damage. Then asked for a tip. They also gave their phone number so we could hire them and not go through the company. I would not use them again. KS El Cajon,CA

Movers | Sd247movers
This has nothing to do with the job that my two helpers did, but the extra hours turned out to be way expensive. It was already more than I expected, but with the extra hours needed (due to the heat of the day and distance from the unit to the parking lot), it ended up being almost twice what I expected.

Movers | Sd247movers
The crew was fantastic! On time, quick, efficient, professional and courteous. Even when things didn't quite go as smoothly as they could, they were able to handle things in a professional manner. We hadn't wrapped our furniture, and we ran out of packing blankets, etc. They had all the equipment needed to professionally wrap and protect every piece of furniture. They even went so far as to take the legs off our coffee table, wrapping each one (along with the table) in plastic, further protecting our items. When it came time to loading the Pods container, they did a fantastic job! It was all nicely packed away, secured with the tie downs we had on hand. (I actually feel confident that this Pod could tip over on it's side, and my items would be protected.) I would definitely hire Kush Movers again.
