ALL SORENSEN'S STAFF WERE EFFICIENT & COURTEOUS. RETURNED CALLS ON TIME. CALLED TO TELL ME WHEN THEY WERE ON THEIR WAY. VERY REASONABLE PRICE, NO HIDDEN COSTS. MADE MOVING EASY AND STRESS FREE, THE WORK WAS WAY BEYOND EXPECTATIONS. ABOVE AND BEYOND CUSTOMER SERVICE.

GREAT EXPERIENCE. THOROUGH AND FRIENDLY (DESPITE LOTS OF BOXES OF RECORD ALBUMS TO MOVE!). ONE TRUCK BROKE DOWN ENROUTE TO NEW LOCATION, BUT THEY TRANSFERRED THE FURNISHINGS FROM ONE TRUCK TO ANOTHER AND ONLY LOST ABOUT AN HOUR OF WORK. EVEN SENT ANOTHER GUY TO COME HELP IN THE MEANTIME. DIDN'T DAMAGE ANYTHING. DIDN'T LOSE ANYTHING. I WOULD RECOMMEND TO ANYONE.

EXCELLENT IN COMMUNICATION AND PUNCTUALITY. ACTUAL COST WAS A LOT LESS THAN ESTIMATE, THAT WAS NICE. MOVERS WERE NICE, PROFESSIONAL, COURTEOUS. VERY STRONG AND MORE THAN CAPABLE. ALSO, THEY UN-INSTALLED AN AIR CONDITIONER AND DISPOSED OF IT FOR US. THEY DID BREAK A THERMOSTAT AND PUT A FEW DENTS IN THE WALL, BUT THAT WAS COVERED WITH OPTIONAL INSURANCE AND A CHECK WAS SENT PROMPTLY. MOVING ALL THAT STUFF, I DIDN'T EXPECT THAT THERE WOULD BE NO DAMAGES, ALTHOUGH THEY DIDN'T USE THE QUILTED COVERS TO MOVE FURNITURE UP THE STAIRS IN MY NEW HOME, AND I HAD ASKED THAT THEY BE ESPECIALLY CAREFUL. ALL IN ALL, THOUGH, THEY ARE HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

THESE GUYS WERE EXCELLENT. THEY WERE PROMPT, PERSONABLE AND WASTED NO TIME IN GETTING THE JOB DONE. I WAS CHARGED EXACTLY WHAT I WAS QUOTED AS WELL. THEY REALLY HAD TO WORK TO GET SOME OF THE PIECES INTO SOME OF THE ROOMS AND DID NOT HAVE BAD WORDS ABOUT ANYTHING! AFTER MY MOVE, I SUGGESTED THEM TO A FRIEND WHO HIRED THEM AS WELL. I AM WAITING TO HEAR HOW THINGS GO FROM HIM! I WOULD HIRE THESE GUYS IN A HEARTBEAT IF I HAD TO MOVE AGAIN.

JAYSON AND STEVE PICKED UP AND DELIVERED MY NEW 125 GALLON AQUARIUM. THEY ALSO HAD TO BRING IT DOWN TO THE BASEMENT. NOT ONCE, BUT TWICE, AS I ALSO HAD A USED ONE IN THE BACK OF MY TRUCK THAT WENT DOWNSTAIRS. THEY WERE FRIENDLY, AND PROFESSIONAL. EVERYTHING WAS DELIVERED ON TIME, AND THEY HELPED TO UNPACK. I WOULD HIRE THEM AGAIN.

LORENZO AND HIS CREW OF THREE WERE WONDERFUL. THEY WORKED EXTREMELY HARD FROM THE MOMENT THEY ARRIVED. THEY WERE CHEERFUL, COURTEOUS AND HELPFUL THROUGHOUT THE 8-HOUR MOVE DESPITE THE LARGE QUANTITY OF BOXES AND HEAVY FURNITURE. THEY WERE VERY CAREFUL WITH OUR BELONGINGS AND WILLING TO PUT THINGS JUST WHERE WE WANTED THEM, INCLUDING MOVING THINGS WHEN WE REALIZED WE'D DIRECTED THEM TO THE WRONG PLACE. AFTER A LONG DAY, THEY EVEN RETAINED THEIR SENSES OF HUMOR! WE WILL DEFINITELY USE THIS COMPANY IF WE MOVE AGAIN.

THEY ARRIVED AT 8:30 AM AND I HAD EXPECTED THEM AT 8:00 AM. THEY TOOK VERY GREAT CARE IN BACKING INTO MY DRIVEWAY AS I HAD TREES ON BOTH SIDES. DENNIS WAS THE LEAD GUY AND HAD A 3 GUY CREW. THEY WERE VERY CLEAN CUT AND POLITE MEN, AND WENT RIGHT TO WORK. THEY WERE VERY EFFICIENT WITH THEIR TIME; KNEW HOW TO TAKE OFF DOORS/BREAK DOWN THE BEDS, ETC. THEY FILLED THE TRUCK IN 1 LOAD IN 2 HOURS! WE DROVE TO THE NEW HOME AND THEY WENT RIGHT TO WORK UNLOADING. THEY DID ALL THE SET UP OF THE BEDS AND PLACED THE FURNITURE EXACTLY WHERE I WANTED IT. NO COMPLAINTS WHEN I ASKED THEM TO REMOVE A COUPLE OF ITEMS (WRONG BED FRAME IN THE WRONG BEDROOM) AND THEY MOVED A HUGE TV WE PURCHASED FROM THE SELLER FROM THE MAIN FLOOR TO THE BASEMENT. WE BARELY GOT THEM TO BREAK FOR A SANDWICH AND SOME GATORADE! TOTAL TIME WAS 4.25 HOURS AND THEN THEY CHARGED .75 HOURS FOR TRAVEL (THIS WAS COVERED AT TIME OF RESERVATION). SO TOTAL TIME SPENT WAS 1-2 HOURS BELOW ESTIMATE. VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
Description of Work: MOVING HOUSEHOLD FURNITURE APPROXIMATELY 15 MILES FROM ONE HOME TO ANOTHER. I CALLED A MONTH IN ADVANCE TO BOOK AND CHOSE 3 GUYS AND 1 TRUCK VS. 4 GUYS AND 2 TRUCKS. AT THE TIME OF BOOKING I GAVE THEM AN INVENTORY OF WHAT I WANTED MOVED AND THEY STATED IT MAY TAKE 2 TRIPS, TOTAL TIME ESTIMATED WITH 3 GUYS AND 1 TRUCK WAS 6-7 HOURS.

THEIR CONCERN FOR OUR SATISFACTION WAS SECOND TO NONE. FROM OUR FIRST PHONE CONTACT, EVERYONE I SPOKE WITH WAS VERY PROFESSIONAL. THE DRIVER WAS JAY AND THE OTHER MOVERS WERE JON, ERIC & SHANNON. VIA THEIR WEBSITE I WAS ABLE TO DO A SELF ESTIMATE. ONE OF THE OWNERS, FRED, STILL CAME BY TO DO A WRITTEN ESTIMATE. THEY WERE VERY CAREFUL, EFFICIENT, AND THE FINAL COST WAS RIGHT IN LINE WITH THE ESTIMATE. THEY HANDLED OUR ANTIQUE FURNITURE, LARGE HEAVY PIECES, WITH AMAZING SKILL. THEY WERE OBVIOUSLY VERY EXPERIENCED MOVING PROFESSIONALS. GREAT JOB!

THE PRICE WAS $140 PER HOUR FOR THREE WORKERS. THEY WERE VERY RESPONSIVE AND EASY TO REACH. THEY MOVED FURNITURE FOR ME TO ONE HOUSE FROM 3 DIFFERENT LOCATIONS. THEY MOVED THE FURNITURE TO THE CORRECT ROOMS. THEY GAVE ME A WINDOW OF TIME THAT THEY WOULD COME, BUT I HAD TO RESCHEDULE, SORT OF AT THE LAST MINUTE, AND THEY WERE ABLE TO ACCOMMODATE THAT. VERY PROFESSIONAL. I WOULD RECOMMEND THEM TO ANYONE.

WE HAD PACKED OUR OWN BOXES AND WE TOOK CHINA, TV'S AND FRAGILE OR POORLY PACKED ITEMS BY CAR, BUT A-1 DID THE REST. THEY SENT OUT 2 TRUCKS AND 4 MEN (JASON, JON, CHRIS & PHIL). THESE GUYS WERE FANTASTIC. HARD WORKING, CAREFUL, AND OBVIOUSLY EXPERIENCED. THEY WERE COMPLETELY DONE IN 6.5 HOURS, INCLUDING DRIVE TIME AND A LUNCH BREAK! THE ONLY BREAKAGE WAS STUFF WE HAD TAKEN OURSELVES BY CAR! THIS WAS THE BEST MONEY I'VE SPENT IN YEARS. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY.

I GRADED THEIR PRICES AS B BECAUSE THEY GAVE NO CREDIT AGAINST THEIR 'TRIP' CHARGE. I THOUGHT THE CHARGE MADE FOR TRAVELING FROM THEIR OFFICE TO BEGIN THE WORK AND THEN BACK AFTERWARDS WAS A BIT HIGH. THE COST OF THEIR WORK WHILE MOVING ME WAS GREAT AND THEY DID NOT WASTE ANY TIME.

ALL THE MEN WERE FRIENDLY, VERY PROFESSIONAL AND WILLING, WITH GOOD CHEER, TO MOVE FURNITURE AROUND IN MY NEW PLACE. I FELT THE PRICE FOR THE MOVE WAS VERY REASONABLE.

I MOVED FROM A HOUSE BUILT IN 1890 TO A HOUSE THAT WAS BUILT IN 1894, AND THE MOVERS HAD TO DEAL WITH NARROW AND STEEP STAIRWAYS. THEY HAD TO TAKE ALL OF THE BEDS APART FOR THE MOVE, AND THEY PUT THEM BACK TOGETHER IN THE NEW HOME (FOUR BEDS); THEY HAD TO CARRY TWO ENORMOUS DRESSERS DOWNSTAIRS IN THE OLD HOME AND THEN UPSTAIRS IN THE NEW HOME. THE MOVERS WERE CHEERFUL, EFFICIENT, AND THEY DIDN'T EVEN SCRATCH THE WALLS OR THE WOOD FLOORS!
