Absolutely perfect. They were professional in every way and definitely know what they are doing. Very prompt, efficient, strategical, and remember where everything goes. They probably did it in half the time it would have taken me to move everything. 100% couldn't recommend them enough.

The King of Quality crews were tremendous teams during the loading of a 16' truck and four (eventually ten Uhaul) bins. The packers carefully wrapped each piece of furniture with a blanket then clear wrapped prior to loading the piece. When I asked that certain light-weight boxes with fragile items be at the top of the pile, the filled the truck and/or bins appropriately. They must be great at playing Tetris, because their packing skills were great, with not an inch of wasted space with a variety of sizes of boxes and furniture. The crews worked well together, were extremely professional, good communicators, efficient when packing a four bedroom/two bath home. I definitely would use them again, and highly recommend them.

Helpers moved chairs and couches for us. They arrived on time, worked quickly and carefully. Overall pleased with our experience.
![Qshark Moving Profile Image](https://cdn.statically.io/img/cloud.hireahelper.com/helpers/workerimages/0a89cad233c849ab865f6c7c3da790ab.png)
I had a really tough job. It was a 2800 sq foot home with large furniture, a mirrored buffet, and 40-50 boxes. It was a ton of stuff. They came at 9am and packed all the boxes, wrapped all the furniture, and everything got to my new home without a scratch. These guys worked late, and were always moving. They worked very hard. The window was 8am-10am, got there at 9am and were just moving till very late. Did not break or scratch a thing, they are very professional. I would use them for my next move! 5 stars, I was very pleased. It is worth the extra few bucks if you have nice stuff!!!
