We used full packing and moving services with storage. Both the packing team (Paul, Gabe, Javier) and the moving team (Paul, Kevin, Daniel, Gerson) were wonderful! They were friendly, kind, interactive, and diligent. They wasted no time in getting started and worked solid until the job was done. We used Gentle…
We used Gentle Giants to wrap and load our furniture into a U-Haul truck we rented. We were happy with their response, communication and professional attitude for the initial phase and when it came to the wrapping and loading we continued to be impressed. Dakarai, Donny and Cameron were awesome. We plan to use them again. They are reasonably priced too.
Gentle Giant did a terrific job for me. Everyone I worked with from the packers to the movers were kind, hard working and efficient. They took very good care of all my belongings. I highly recommend Gentle Giant to anyone looking for an excellent moving company!
Gentle giant aha a great team. Fast and thorough.
We had the most positive experience moving with Gentle Giant and could not recommend them enough. While it was a more premium price point than what we’ve seen elsewhere, the amount of care, communication, and professionalism was well worth the investment. Not only did the team handle our items with extreme care,…
Donny, Kevin and Raily were wonderful to work with. They took extra care of all of my items and made sure everything was put back together (sleep number bed, treadmill, etc) and functioning correctly before they left. I wouid definitely recommend Gentle Giant and this crew for exceptional professionalism and care of…
Paul and Gerson did an amazing job moving my furniture and boxes for my DC apartment. They both were quick, kind, professional and kept all of my stuff safe/not damaged. Thank you!!
I just used Gentle Giant to move houses. The team was amazing. They were careful, communicated very well, and very efficient. I highly recommend their services. The team was led by Amin (who was amazing) and all of the crew (including Paul, Mohamed, Erick, Alonso, Buenaventura, Gerson, Kevin, Jimmy, and Octavian) were professional, friendly, and helpful!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I had such a great experience with this moving company! The movers were incredibly patient, caring, and professional throughout the entire process. They handled our belongings with care and never made us feel rushed, even during the more stressful parts of moving. They were also so kind and easy to work…
Thank you Gentle Giant! Dakarai & Mason made the moving process easy and they were so quick and efficient. I appreciate their professionalism and respect for my items as if it were their own. Grateful for the whole team especially Dominique for her effective communication and dedication to ensuring I understood the whole process. Highly recommended.
Great, friendly team! The truck showed up on time with a team of 2, and the other 2 team members came a couple hours later. They worked efficiently and carefully and wrapped up only half an hour behind schedule. The office team was also extremely responsive to questions. Would definitely use again!
I rarely leave reviews, but I've used Gentle Giant for two moves now (apartment to apartment and apartment to house) and they're head and shoulders the best. Always efficient, careful, and quick, and they've always been willing to make sure things are perfect before heading out. This time, I had a piece of…
Gentle Giant's moving crew was on time for our move, highly professional, fast (beating their own estimate by a couple of hours), and without incident. Their back-office staff was equally professional and helpful. They helped ensure a typically stressful day was stress-free.
Gentle Giant far surpassed our expectations. We were so impressed by their fairness and work ethic that we will never use a different moving company. The crew was so hard working, and positive during a very difficult logistical move. Our final bill was actually less than the estimate! If you need a moving…
I’ve done multiple moves with Gentle Giant and wholeheartedly recommend them. For this move, our crew was faster than estimated and the whole process came in under budget, which is always a plus. Paul, Andre, Karun, and Dylan were so nice to work with and very careful packing and moving our stuff, including delicate…
Have now had 2 great moving experiences with Gentle Giants. Dex and Francis were incredibly efficient, professional, and kind! Highly recommend
Excellent service. Great attitude, hard working people and efficient system that works to move things with care and quite quickly. Thanks for great work Paul, Jimmy, Mason, Brandon, Bobby!!!
Everything was great! Such an awesome team. I wasn't completely ready, yet they filled all the gaps that I had missed and still stayed on schedule. Great job!
On time, incredibly professional and communicative. Friendly, fast and truly "gentle."
The moving team was fast, efficient, knowledgeable about their craft, courteous (even kind!) to us as we dealt with the chaos of the move. They worked well as a team, respecting each others' skills and safety. Happy to recommend !
Paul, Dylan, and Jimmy were extremely helpful moving me out of my apartment. They handled everything with care in an efficient manner. I would highly recommend their services for anyone’s future move out.
Paul, Erick & Bobby were AMAZING!!
I would highly recommend Gentle Giant for your moving needs. Attention to detail, efficiency and excellent communication skills. True professionals!
Gentle Giant Moving Company is truly elite. They moved my family from one DC rowhome to another, which involved large items, tons of steps, and tight spaces. The team was professional, skilled, friendly and a joy to be around. They made moving our refrigerator and Green Egg grill look like no problem at all. Hiring…
Couldn’t be happier with my move! Gabriel, Jamie, and Riley were awesome! Super friendly, super quick, super thorough. I highly recommend!!
Gentle Giant made our move completely stress-free from start to finish. They handled both our packing and our move, and the entire team went above and beyond every step of the way. Everyone was incredibly professional, friendly, and hardworking. What stood out most was their attitude—nothing ever felt like an…
This was hands-down the best moving company I have ever hired and I have moved a lot. They were efficient. They solved every problem without trouble. They were friendly and did everything they could to make me happy. I cannot say enough good about them. i’m Happy to recommend them.
Moving is stressful but I thank God for Gentle Giant Moving company. This is my 4th time using this company. I do think they can be a bit pricey and I always seem to go past the quoted price. I dont think they should charge from the moment they leave the warehouse but other than that I am always pleased with the…
10/10 moving experience! Dex & Daniel were so efficient and kind throughout the whole process. Would absolutely move with Gentle Giant again. Thank you!!
I never leave reviews but let me tell you, this company, customer service and movers are phenomenal. We had a lot of boxes and heavy furniture (which I felt horrible about) but we really needed help and reliable people to help secure our valuables and these were the guys. I can’t recommend this company enough and if…
Would give higher than 5 stars if able. Three professional movers, Armin, Octavian and Erick, handled our move perfectly. Called before to keep us in the loop, expertly wrapped the furniture/other and moved quickly into and out of the truck. I called around and fortunately landed on Gentle Giant. If in the…
They were incredibly efficient, super kind, and considerate! They made my very stressful move a breeze.
★★★★★ Outstanding Experience with Gentle Giant I cannot say enough good things about Gentle Giant and the crew that handled my move. I called on very short notice because I needed to move urgently due to a significant pest issue in my building that was not going to be resolved quickly. From my very first…
Entire crew was excellent!!! Hustled and took excellent care of my stuff!! A delight to use Gentle Giant a second time! I highly recommend them and I have moved about 40 times in my life (best move of them all)!
The team was great. Showed up on time and worked hard.
If I could give them six stars I would! I have moved with gentle giant twice now and it is always a great experience.
Wonderful service! Gabe, Eric, and Mohammad were punctual, polite, and courteous! They were efficient with moving me out, careful with my belongings and even went above and beyond their duties! Highly recommend and will use them again in the future!
Amazing job Gentle Giant move crew!!!! Each team member was so efficient and helpful. Paul, my move crew leader was fantastic with coordinating the equipment and the truck and moving into my apartment building successfully. It all went so smoothly and I truly appreciated all the work put into making this move go SO…
Out of 5 prior moves, this was the best crew I've used. Clean blankets, clean truck. Careful treatment of objects and no damage. Fast and safe. Great experience.
Fantastic experience, second time in a decade using Gentle Giant for a local move. Clear communication and pricing. Crew arrived early, worked efficiently and were super nice.
