Ace Plus Moving & More LLC was one of the best moving experiences I’ve ever had. I have a large five-bedroom, two-story home, and I underestimated how much help I’d need—I only requested two movers with a big truck. Despite that, they went above and beyond, working nonstop to help move everything quickly and efficiently within the limited time I had. They were amazing at prioritizing what needed to be loaded and played a masterful game of Tetris to make every single box and item fit into the truck. When it came time to unload into the storage unit, they lined the walls perfectly and made use of every inch of space. I highly recommend this company directly for your next move. Special shoutout to Jon and KJ—you guys were awesome!

Movers | Morris Moving and Storage LLC
We had excellent service. Our three movers arrived timely (in fact, we had to wait a few minutes for the Pod to arrive). It was blazing hot but they worked efficiently. They took good care of our furniture, helped set it up the bed and put together the couch for us. They were super sweet. I would definitely use them again.
