Guys showed up right on time. They were very detail oriented and made sure everything was right, while both loading and unloading. Would highly recommend!

Affordable Moving was great to work with. Their staff was very careful and courteous with our things. They are efficient as well. I’ve used them on my last two moves and will use them again in the future if needed.

Very slow and inefficient!! They did not use a dolly, even though there was a big one here available for them to use. They carried many things one at a time. And it was NOT affordable. Because of their slowness, our bill was extremely high. I’m giving them two starts because they eventually got the job done, and they were nice guys.

Affordable moving was 5 stars from beginning to end. Personable, friendly, professional, extremely hard working. Willing to tackle the hard and tricky things we needed moved. I would recommend them over and over again. Thanks to all 6 men in our moving crew and especially the lead (wish I remembered his name). Thank you!
