BE AWARE! If you are in the military and ended up with them, PLEASE REQUEST SOMEBODY ELSE OR DO IT YOURSELF. By far the worst in every segment. If they agree to certain numbers of packing days, there would be a lie. If they said, they sent requests for framing, there would be another lie. If they say, your property is NOT going to be in a storage, there would be lie. They do NOT want to help and they will NOT listen to your issues either. Avoid them as much as possible.

We hired Nilson upon the recommendation of Gulfstream's relocation company to pack and move our belongings (4400 square foot house) from Southern Woods to a new home at the Landings. We had to reschedule several times due to delays on our closing and they accommodated us perfectly! Our move out and move back in was accomplished in a blazing 10 hours, Not all of the boxes are unpacked, but so far, not one single bit of damage has been found. Nilson is not the cheapest mover in town, but they were very reasonable when we questioned a bill. I would definitely trust them with a move again.
Description of Work: Nilson moved us from Georgetown in Savannah to the Landings on Skidaway.
