Customer Highlights

Feb 10, 2026

I am so grateful to find such a great moving company

These people took care of our heavy aquarium supplies by using soft padding and plastic wrap. They made sure the glass tanks were secure in the truck and wouldn't slide around while we were driving. I liked the way they communicated to make sure the fragile items were handled with extra caution. It was a very successful move, and I am happy to see our fish gear made it safely. They did a really solid job overall.

I was impressed by how smoothly everything.

I was impressed by how smoothly everything went during my move. The crew arrived right on time and knew exactly what to do from the start. They handled parking, paperwork, and unloading without needing any help from me. Everything was done quietly and efficiently. It’s rare to see that kind of preparation and teamwork these days.

I would not use this service again.

The process felt unorganized and lacked proper coordination. Customer support was slow to respond, and the delays created unnecessary stress. I would not use this service again.

Very frustrating experience.

Several boxes were handled carelessly, and a few belongings arrived damaged. The crew seemed rushed and paid little attention to fragile items. Very frustrating experience.

Friendly and helpful guys!

I moved into a rental closer to family and booked these guys for the job. I appreciated how the movers stayed consistent from start to finish without changing plans midway. Boxes with books, décor, and work gear all arrived in good condition. Nothing went missing, which is always my main concern.

No complaints at all.

I highly recommend asking for Zachary if you book here. We had a tricky move with a narrow basement staircase. He measured everything first and had a plan. He guided his team perfectly, getting our freezer and washing machine up without a hitch. They were done in under 4 hours.

Loyal Customer service.

I was moving out of my apartment after a breakup and just wanted it done. I was not in a great mood. The movers were quiet and focused. They didn't make small talk, which I appreciated that day. They just worked hard and got everything out. They were neutral and professional during a personal time. They handled all my stuff normally, even though it was a weird situation for me.

Highly recommend this moving crew.

Highly recommend this moving crew. I had a bunch of musical instruments, including a keyboard and speakers. They wrapped everything tightly and secured it in the truck. No bumps or marks when it arrived. You can tell they know what they're doing.

I hope improvements are made in the future.

The overall experience was disappointing. Customer service was not as responsive as expected, and several issues remained unresolved. I hope improvements are made in the future.

10/10 would use again.

10/10 would use again. We were moving my daughter into a 3rd-floor apartment with no elevator. The guys from M Company carried every box and piece of furniture up all those stairs. They never slowed down or complained. They even helped her unpack the heaviest boxes. The whole job took about 5 hours, which was less than they quoted.
