We did a full house move from Albany to Peru over two days. From the first phone call to the final piece of furniture put in place, the team at Don’s was efficient, conscientious, courteous, thorough, and kind. We highly recommend them!

The crew was on time, fast, and packed my things very carefully. Great for a military move!

Used these guys for an interstate move as part of a larger contract with Wheaton. Items were packed extremely haphazardly, they lost A THIRD of our stuff, and damaged the rest. We’re in the process of filing a claim, and Don’s has been a winning combination of unresponsive and unhelpful. Avoid like the plague.
