I encouraged my mother to hire Meathead Movers for her move from Atascadero, CA to Kuna, ID because I trusted their reputation. The quotes were higher than other companies, but I told her she was paying for peace of mind. Unfortunately, this was far from any peace. From the beginning, we questioned the estimator's…

They are always on time and maximize their work to keep the costs down. Are accurate in their estimates. Moving guys are courteous and respectful. Great people to help you move.

We hired Meathead Movers to help get my 86 year old brother moved from his house to an apartment. The movers were very careful to wrap things like his TV to make sure nothing got broken. They were fast and friendly and willing to help with our requests. The cost was reasonable. I would highly recommend this company.

As a single older person, Meathead movers was a godsend. When I purchased my new home, they met me at my storage unit did all the loading in an organized and careful manner and then met me at my house and unloaded everything. With the same care. The personnel were very friendly and accommodating. I recommend them to everyone.
