I appreciated Jason's communication and patience in the estimating phase. He provided an estimate promptly, answered all my questions in a timely manner (I had a lot and realized later most of the answers I needed were in his FAQ, thanks for being patient with me ), and was flexible when I needed to change the date last minute. I had reached out to several different moving companies and would say Jason was the most affordable option. On move-in day he and his team arrived on-time and got to work immediately. Since we were previously living with roommates our stuff was scattered between a few different rooms of the house. I was worried that would be confusing but they were on top of it! Some of our stuff was not packed well (including some delicate items) but they brought some gear and moved it with no issues. Upon unpacking we were impressed that not a single thing was broken! They also did a great job with our large TV. 10/10 would recommend.

The day of the move, Jason and his two guys showed up right on time and got right to work. They worked really well as a team, were good communicators, offered helpful suggestions, were careful and unflappable, and made a pretty challenging move (on a 90 degree day) go smoothly. As hard as moving is, they honestly made it a much less stressful experience. It's a really pleasure working with capable service providers like Jason and his team.

I therefore felt confident to again call up Julie and ask her to send a team to move the same Furniture minus some very large pieces to our new home. What a nightmare, The team arrived and immediately tried to turn it into it two day move. When we declined, they became frustrated and things proceeded downhill. I could write 10,000 words and not describe it accurately. The three person team arrived without water, hours late, did not seem like they were feeling well as three of them used our bathroom For extended periods of time, if you know what I mean! They built a cardboard ramp to move our furniture and boxes down a staircase-despite our protests (we were on a very tight schedule and felt desperate ) this destroyed furniture and boxes,literally ripped the bars off of wardrobe boxes, all in the exact same way. Left half of our furniture and goods behind, this we have learned are called hostage loads, to force the second day move and despite a contract tried to charge us Twice the estimate! Owner promised to repair and replace Furniture late that night, as I protested and shared the extreme damage and the fact that half of our belongings were left behind . They did not follow through. Julie gaslight and attacked me! She has sent harassing text messages @10pm, as I've used the proper authorities to try to address this after her failing to respond or live up to her responsibilities I will post a screenshot of her response to me which -"was it was all damaged already, My team did nothing" We live in a pet and child free home and all of this furniture was purchased with pride when our children were in college and was damage free. She of course, does not have proof that any of these items were damaged We have video and photos of items before the move and proof of sending her videos and photos in the early a.m. as this move dragged to the 2 AM hour at which time her workers were revving their truck engine in our small residential neighborhood, In a threatening manner. We found our new shark vacuum in a yard down the street and to whomever lost their king main bed Support we have it. They left it with us! Please beware and stay safe and avoid this company,It has changed greatly. These movers will not treat your home and belongings with Care,as we believe they know that there will be no remedy for their customers as the owner stated herself! Ps: The posted photos are a very small percentage, we have over 90 GB of proof! They packed this truck about 3 to 5 feet high And then kept telling us things wouldn't fit

To my surprise, it was a simple set up, got a quote right away, and booked the move a day later. The movers we're very friendly, prompt and knew exactly what needed to be done (had no idea how much goes into moving a grand piano!). I rarely post reviews on sites like Yelp, but these guys well deserved it. They even recommended how to take care of the piano, had several tuner recommendations and helped us pick a good spot in the house to place it (guess some walls are better than others. And, away from windows). Things I would of never thought of. Great company!

Beverly Wells has been tuning our pianos for nearly 35 years and I can't imagine entrusting our…read morepianos to anyone else. We have never had the space for our dream pianos, but Beverly was able to manipulate what we had to fool our ears and dreams still came true. She is a true craftsperson and the tuning is just the cherry on top of all the other elements of sound she develops. Even when played by professional pianists, there were positive comments about the tone, the presence, the overtones, the balance, and on and on. I can attest that this had less to do with the piano and so much more to do with the mastery of Beverly. Whatever your piano needs, we recommend Piano Craft and without hesitation.

I solicited multiple quotes, and off the top of my head I know they came in at half the price of Fresh Start Movers (PS stay away from them lol! They were horrible and so overpriced). White glove quality with Mentor Movers though (And I am picky lol!) The crew was professional, efficient, and handled everything with care. No dragging things out, no hidden surprises, no attitude--just solid, high-quality work from start to finish. They made what is usually a stressful process feel smooth and under control. What really stood out was how organized and quick they were without being careless. They protected my furniture, worked as a tight team, and got everything done faster than I expected. If you want movers who are reliable, efficient, and don't waste your time, Mentor Movers is the move. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again.
