1-star Google reviewdaniel W.5 months ago
Do not hire these movers. if you do, be very careful. the post below is long and detailed. i hope it helps others avoid being in my situation. I booked a move of some antique furniture from a storage unit to my home. I described the items, informed them I had seen them in person and taken photos of their condition, and notified them there was a staircase involved. I was specific these items were old, delicate, and impossible to replace.

Nick was amazing. Super helpful and friendly and he was sure to get the job done as fast as possible. They beat everyone else’s price (some of them by 2x) and did the best moving job we’ve ever had. Couldn’t recommend them more!
