Another great move with Local Muscle. Justin and his crew moved across town in a careful and…read moreefficient manner. They were on time and got everything in and exactly where we wanted stuff to go. Highly recommended.

March 2023, two adult females planning to move away from downtown Portland, Maine, only across…read moretown, were left feeling taken advantage of by Local Muscle, and now DO NOT recommend using them. When asked ahead of time if they would wrap antique furniture items with padding and elastic bands, Local Muscle said yes, but showed up and said they do not do that. When 4 men showed up LATE, one woman client specified to the leader to kindly move largest and heaviest items first, as anything smaller remaining at the end, the two women would move themselves in their car. The women had placed all items near the apartment door, to be easy to carry out the door of the apartment. Several hours later, after one man only stood by the elevator the whole time, the leader man told the client woman they were about to finish in about 10 minutes, take lunch, then go to the new home and unload. The woman had been going back and forth to the moving truck and knew it was only half full, and most of the largest and heaviest items were still sitting in the apartment. The woman asked the man in charge to help her understand, after she clearly specified in the beginning that the team of hired men were to move the largest and heaviest items first, why had they NOT done so? The man in charge said, We move smaller things first and largest things last, so once we arrive at the new home, the largest items are unloaded first. The woman said this was not what she requested, not how most movers move in her own experience, and now they would be left with the largest and heaviest items they could not fit in their car or lift and put into a rented truck on their own. The man in charge said, Well you can hire us *for another day* like tomorrow to finish the job. (RED FLAG: Fraud, swindle, hoax, scheme!) The woman replied, First, Local Muscle had no openings for yesterday or tomorrow, which is why we scheduled you for today; and second, we must be out of the apartment by tomorrow, so TODAY IS ALL WE HAVE with you guys, which is why we tried to be very clear that you are needed to help move our HEAVIEST AND LARGEST ITEMS. Also, why would we pay you *more money to hire you for a second day* to move what we asked you to move the first day? The man in charge asked the woman to walk around and show him the largest items (as she had done previously). She did, and he had his team load some of the items. The two women traveled to the new place, met the Local Muscle team of men, and they had added two more *so their unload* would go quicker. (Why have two more on the tail end and not the front end to help load all of the items and fill the truck?) The men finished unloading, and the man in charge said the charge would be FAR MORE than the original estimate, plus they asked for a tip and stood there looking at the woman who had to approve the charge. What a waste of money and time. An additional van needed to be rented, loaded, and unloaded by the women for the items Local Muscle left behind. Was this because the move was from Commercial Street, a presumption that these two women were rich and could easily be swindled? STAY AWAY FROM LOCAL MUSCLE. BEWARE.

I loved the location as it was quiet and tucked into a residential neighborhood versus an industrial area. The only thing was that I rented a unit that was not temperature controlled and when the weather got hot it started to smell musty in the interior hallway. I was concerned about moldy growing on my stuff. I moved it out of the unit in time. I learned my lesson though...to get climate controlled units in the future. Security was excellent here with an actual security officer patrolling around.

Like Noyes' moving service, this is one of those things where spending a bit more is worth it: this place is clean and temperature controlled, and the staff are all super helpful. They're always monitoring so you'll feel perfectly safe even going down those various hallways that are dark at first (don't worry, the lights turn on via sensor!). It's always a breeze to pull in and load and unload; there are plenty of carts and a huge elevator. Once I leave I never think twice about my stuff here--which is as it should be, because I know it's in good hands!

I will always have a storage unit because of the nature of my life and it will always be at Maine Coast Storage.
