FANTASTIC!!! They loaded my UHaul for a 700+ mile drive. Eli said when we opened the truck at our destination, everything would look the same and nothing would move. He was 100% correct! These guys know exactly what they’re doing!

They were extremely cautious with our furniture, handling every item as if it were their own. Their attention to detail and commitment to protecting our belongings truly set them apart. Not only were they careful, but they also worked expediently, ensuring that the move was completed in a timely manner without compromising quality. Their positive attitudes and strong work ethic made a potentially stressful day smooth and seamless.

3 out of 4 workers showed up on time. The 4th was an hour late. Even though we had hired 4 workers for 8 hours and stated that it was a large home, the workers seemed overwhelmed. They were out of sync at times --didn't really seem to be a team. The homeowner and son had to pitch in to get the job done in the time allotted. Hired this company based on the positive reviews, even though they were a bit more expensive. We could have used more information from the company and the workers from the beginning on how to have items ready for loading and what supplies to have on hand. Our first move in many years--they do this daily. The workers were pleasant and courteous to deal with. The company added on the supplies that were used but did not address the cost of the late worker.

We had the coincidental good fortune to have owner Terry Carraway run our crew. It was an extreme pleasure to meet such an amiable, knowledgable, courteous, customer -service minded entrepreneur. I understand the reason for his numerous high-ranking reviews. The way he responded to last-minute changes, and the accommodations he made for our project was exemplary. If the small -business industry was comprised by owners like Terry, none of us would have to tolerate the frustrating experiences of over-paying larger corporations for under-performing service. It is my hope that "word" does indeed get out and that Terry's business philosophy and practices grow and prosper.
