Cam, Ken, and Von did an amazing job with an in-state move. They made fast work of two pickup locations and the dropoff, all without damage or other issues. Thanks, Marathon! We'll definitely be calling back for future moves!
I had a great experience employing Marathon Moving Services for the move of a 1-bedroom apartment from Chesapeake to Virginia Beach. I spoke with Milton on the phone and he explained the process in detail. The movers, Willis & Vaughn, were on time, pleasant and capable. They covered or boxed anything that needed…

I have nothing but the highest praise for Milton and his team at Marathon Moving Services. I moved from Virginia Beach to Richmond, and I got several quotes before going with Marathon as well as checking reviews on Yelp. Both the quoted price and their Yelp reviews convinced me to go with them, and I am so happy I…
Just completed a move with Marathon Moving and they did an amazing job. Quick, efficient and very professional. Milton has a great and respectful crew and will definitely be calling them again for any local moves. Highly recommend MMS.
Milton and the team at Marathon are without a doubt the premier company in the whole of the seven cities. They were fast, courteous, and efficient. I hope I never have to move again, bit if I do Marathon is the only company I'll use. I can not say enough good things about this company.
Marathon Movers helped me move all my furniture that I couldn’t move myself. The crew was on time, professional, and knowledgeable. I will contact them again in the future if I need their services again. The move went quickly and was reasonably priced. If you are looking for movers in the Virginia Beach area call…
Anyone who is in need of moving services should look no further than Marathon Moving! Milton is very responsive, professional, and very easy to work with! The team arrived early, (we had rain predicted later in the day, so early was perfect) and finished early. I will tell everyone I know to use this company.

Best moving services that I've EVER dealt with and I've dealt with many as I have moved several times in the past. I STRONGLY and HIGHLY…
They were amazing. Professional and quick. This was my first time using a moving company so I was super nervous that I might get swindled or something or they would purposely move slow, but not these guys. They are well worth the price. Will 100% use again!
Team was professional and very quick with the load up. They were very respectful and appreciated that we were ready for them to load up. Team was very courteous and fast.
