Two Men and a Truck

When it comes to moving, I like to do it myself. My husband and I moved cross-​country and cross-​town by ourselves, no problem. Except… when we moved into our last apartment, we brought a new piece of furniture that weighed a lot of pounds; didn’t come apart; and required three guys, a supervising gal, and at least an hour to get it up the stairs. We thought we’d end up leaving it behind for the next tenant, but we ended up wanting it in the new house.
Lacking the two guys who helped us move in, we knew we’d need to hire someone to get the thing out again, and I figured if I was paying someone to move that bit of furniture they could move all of it, darn it! I called around to a few different moving places for quotes and although this place was certainly not the cheapest, it was definitely the most professional and friendly. They took an inventory of all of our stuff we wanted moved, quoted me at 3 – 4 hours at an hourly rate (plus some base cost), and got me scheduled for the upcoming weekend.
When our two men arrived with the truck, they were super friendly and got to work straight away — they had a couple pieces in the truck while we were still moving stuff out of the way for them! They went heavy on the padding and shrink wrapping, which I appreciated, and managed to get that ridiculous hunk of furniture down the stairs in about 15 minutes.
At the new place, they brought everything in quickly and put it where we asked, even figuring out that «the office» was the most likely dumping ground for not-​otherwise-​obvious things. They barely stopped when we offered them some water, and when it came time to settle up the bill they somehow came in at 2.5 hours, for a job that would definitely have taken the husband and I all day and probably then some.
There were of course some dings and scratches in the process, but probably no more than we would have gathered on our own, and it was worth the cost not to have to do all that work ourselves. I’m not planning on moving for at least another ten years or so, but I will definitely keep these guys in mind when I do.

Could not be more pleased. They were professional, punctual, and they even brought an intern with them so I got three guys for the price of two. They worked way faster than I expected, I had a goal for how much time I wanted to pay for and they beat it. I will definitely consider them if I should need movers again.
Update: I used this same company and this same office again for another move, and again they were great. The movers were professional, and very good at their jobs. They knew exactly how to move everything most efficiently and I would certainly use them again if the need arose.

Our mover arrive time was 12 – 4 PM. When the movers did not arrive by 4 PM, my wife and I worried that they would never come. The movers finally arrived at 8 PM, FOUR hours past their scheduled arrive time. We were never given a heads up from management that they were going to arrive late so we could plan accordingly. We tried calling the local office multiple times and never heard back from anyone. Not even within the next day or two to apologize. I will NEVER use this company again since the stress from the whole experience gave me diarrhea.

I would’ve given 5 stars because the actual movers were good, efficient, fast, & very helpful. We had 3 guys help us, I give them 5 stars!
Now I downgraded this review to 2 stars because the admin/​customer service folks are not communicating to their movers/​field guys what has been requested and discussed by the customer. My husband confirmed with Sporty at the main number at least twice that we are requesting the movers to assemble furniture that are brand new, straight from the box, and not used. She told him multiple times that the movers can do so and everything will be handled.
Moving day, the movers tell is that they aren’t supposed to assemble furniture that are out of the box, only items that had to be disassembled and reassembled. Thank goodness the guys were VERY GRACIOUS to help and were very professional! They helped to the best of their abilities and limited tools. I remember one of the movers said «yeah sporty, she’s new and don’t know what she’s talking about.» Apparently they were correct about that!
I wish it was a better day but communication is a problem with the team, movers are rear though.

This company saved us when our original movers dogged us. Very appreciative. They were able to fit us in with 1 days notice. The movers were very professional and worked quickly. Would recommend this company to friends. Do not use Big Guy Movers!

And here I thought I was going to have to bribe all the men in my life with beers and homecooked meals to help me move! Luckily my roomie’s mother took pity on us and hired Two Men and A Truck to come to our rescue and move us from the beach to Riverside.
All we had to do was box up everything and these guys really took care of the rest. One complaint, they were supposed to be at our house sometime between 12pm and 3pm, and they didn’t show up until nearly 4. Grrr. I guess that’s to be expected though. Actually it was pretty annoying, but way less annoying than moving myself across town so I’m willing to overlook it.
They were pretty careful with all our belongings and wrapped all the big furniture up in crazy-​huge saran wrap that prevented it from getting dinged or wet (of course it was raining on our move day!) I did see one of the guys break a piece off a tiny end table as he was moving it in the truck. He sort of looked around to see if anyone saw and just went along with the move. Pretty funny, actually. The guys were nice and personable for the most part though. They went straight to work when they arrived and didn’t stop until the job was completely done. They were patient as we decided where we wanted everything positioned in the new place, which naturally took a while.
All in all, hiring movers is absolutely fabulous if you can afford it. Aside from being late, these guys did a great job and I didn’t mind sharing my afternoon and belongings with their company. I’d use them again, but hopefully I won’t have to any time soon!

I had a great experience with Two Men and a Truck. They were courteous, efficient and hard-​working, and showed up right on time! I’ve never hired movers before, so I have nothing to compare them to, but they were exactly what I was hoping for!

I have hired at least 12 moving companies in my life so far, and finally I am a happy customer of one, and only one. This company here in Jax is very professional, on time, careful, respectful, efficient, hard working, and all for a very fair price. Also very highly rated by JD Powers too. Actually was three men and a truck!
