I was in a bind and needed to move sensitive equipment, delivered to my front porch in freezing weather, into the house. No one was available, or available at exorbitant cost. I had left a message for Jordan, who called me back and said while in the area for other jobs, he would be happy to work me in, and stop…

I was in a bind and needed to move sensitive equipment, delivered to my front porch in freezing weather, into the house. No one was available, or available at exorbitant cost. I had left a message for Jordan, who called me back and said while in the area for other jobs, he would be happy to work me in, and stop by to bring in the heavy boxes.. He and his crew were so cheerful and careful and I was so grateful. He communicated and let me know his arrival time. And....the price was very fair and reasonable.!!! I heartily recommend this crew....!!

Huge shoutout to moving u better LLC. They came to pick up a sectional for me to take back for warrany repair from the store I bought it from, and they were absolutely very professional, detail oriented, and very accommodating (especially since im still in a wheelchair) to any need. They offer many services. Check out their website for a list of everthing.
