Customer Highlights

May 13, 2025

Unforgettable Experience

We were on the third floor with a very steep staircase to the street, but you wouldn’t have guessed the movers had difficulty with that. They transported trip after trip without batting an eye, navigating pieces such as my queen bed frame and outdoor grill. I’m impressed so much with their persistence and strength!

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.

Terrible Service.

The move took much longer than promised, which caused unnecessary stress. I had difficulty getting updates, and the overall coordination could have been much better.

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.

extremely helpful and pleasant

Everything went smoothly throughout the move. The movers quickly covered each item upon arrival. A foam-padded box protected my smart LED. They wrapped my delicate glasses and mugs individually and carefully boxed my kitchenware. They taped and rolled my rugs well, which I appreciated.

Simply the best.

Howards Van Line saved our family when we moved at the last minute. The arriving team was very attentive to our stressful situation. We had items still in boxes when they arrived, and they helped us pack and tape everything calmly. They moved our huge washing machine without complaint. Everything finished faster than expected. We are very satisfied with the service!

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.

The experience was disappointing.

I expected a smoother process, but there were several issues along the way. Customer support was difficult to reach, and concerns were not addressed promptly. The experience was disappointing.

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.

hassle-free moving experience.

I was relocating for work and needed movers who could handle everything from packing to transportation. This company made the entire process seamless! They carefully packed my fragile items, loaded everything securely, and delivered on time. I felt completely at ease throughout!
