Harvey and Robert were awesome. They arrived on time. They were fun to talk with while moving. They worked efficiently despite the heat outside. They ensured that my POD had been stacked properly for transport and any additional items that I was still packing. I would hire them again once I have my new job and my POD arrives to be unpacked. Thank you both again!

On time. Reasonably careful....no real test with my stuff though. On the slow side. Given the rates they charge this really adds up. This was a 2 hour job and they took 3....mainly because 2 of the 3 workers had no furniture moving experience and did not speak any English, so doubly hard to direct.
