Charged for 3 hours. 2days earlier I asked to change the time to an hour earlier for starting. I was assured that that was no problem and the change was confirmed But they showed up an hour late and said no one told them it was earlier I had to leave at the time agreed for the change. So they worked two hours and left. The bill charged for 3 hours. I paid for 12 pads and they brought none. The coordinator should have called me if there was a problem. Now I have $1,500. More expenses and the move is not completed. Do not believe what they say

Would not use these guys ever again! Speedy is a part of their name only, although I have to add that packing a POD well is like playing a game of Tetrus, and it takes a while. While the team under the leader were hard working, moved quickly through their tasks, and were very polite, the team leader was very unprofessional. Team leader, Prentice, had a negative attitude from the moment I opened the door. He sent me on a wild goose chase to buy a specific type of rope for the tie downs, but tied NOTHING down. He argued with my husband when we insisted he tie the last items. On the backend, the POD doors were jammed with items that had fallen forward, of course, denting the doors, and making it impossible to open the doors. It was the hard work of the PODS delivery guy that enabled us to access our items. We discovered at least 9 items (small and 2 pieces of furniture) broken due to the way items were stacked or crammed into place. In addition, Speedy Loaders showed up 6 hours late. In attempting to track them down via the office number, I found Prentice's wife to be equally unprofessional. When I spoke directly with Prentice regarding the delay, he snapped at me and disconnected the call. Rather than apologize to me for being late, leaving me hanging and assuming I was on my own, snapping at me, or disconnecting the call, Prentice attempted to manipulate me into apologizing to him! He made this aspect of the moving experience far too stressful!

Mover's response:
We have spoken to the crew leader and made it clear that a bad attitude is not acceptable. You can report the damage to HireAHelper. We apologize for the stress that the crew leader imposed. Contact HireAHelper to put in a claim. The purpose in loading the tiers like tetris is to lock the items in to prevent movement while the container is being moved.

Amazing crew. The guys arrived 10 minutes early. They were very careful in the unloading process and were very careful in loading the furniture into our new house. They even assisted in documenting damaged items from the loading and move. Friendly and professional. I would highly recommend.

Mover's response:
It was a pleasure working with you. Thank you.

In the world of movers, these guys are the wizards. After measuring all my stuff, I reserved two trailers thinking I would use 1.5 trailers and they were able to fit everything in one trailer. It's been two weeks and I am still trying to figure out how they did it. They were amazing!! Also they were very punctual, nice to work with and very careful with our things and our house. I highly recommend Speed Loaders. This was our first time hiring movers and we were very impressed.

Mover's response:
Thank you.

Guys were amazing. Wish I had them on the other end of my move. Called ahead to give me time to prep, were on time and got straight to work. Finished right on time and were hard-working and very respectful of our property and time.

Mover's response:
Thank you for giving us the opportunity to work with you.

Although they were prompt (arrived 15 minutes early), they:
• broke my dining table beyond repair
• disassembled my bike and furniture without my permission
• did not pack the POD efficiently

As far as my table is concerned, the mover suggested that I contact their coordinator to file a claim. However, the way insurance works is the MOVER should be insured and should reimburse the customer. They are the ones who need to file a claim, not me. Unfortunately, the coordinator has not returned my calls.

I would not use them again.

Mover's response:
We apologize for any damage. We reported the damage to HAH immediately. There is a process. HAH informed us that they have provided you with the claim form.
