Thank you to the staff who moved my husband and I on December 11! They did a wonderful job, not one piece was broken. They showed up on time, worked efficiently and had everything done including travel time in 3.5 hours. You have restored our faith in moving companies. Your staff was laughing and joking with each other and having a good time, yet they work very hard. Thank you again, we will be sure to recommend you to anyone who asks.

  • "Newsprint" paper:
    NEVER USE NEWSPAPERS! as wrapping and cushioning material. Newspaper ink has a tendency to rub off on items it touches and it very difficult to remove it from items such as fine china. The solution to that is using "newsprint" paper as cushioning material.

  • Bubble wrap:
    This material is another item used as cushioning material.

  • Styrofoam peanuts:
    Packing material used to protect fragile items. This material is lightweight, clean, lint-free and dustless and safe.
