Sandy and his helper(s) are always very popular rodessional , good with pricing and efficient. He has a family feel that seems lost these day
San Luis Movers are excellent! Needed to move heavy bedroom & living room furniture from my home into the garage to be sold. I called & scheduled a flexible appt time that worked for the both of us. The moving crew was careful, professional & got the move completed in a timely manner. Appreciate this company a lot!
I had a old heavy couch that needed to be picked up shortly after I put it outside, so the HOA wouldn't fuss about it. I also didn't want to pay a lot to get it taken away. SLM&J were able to pick it up the next day and charged a fair amount to do so. I'll call them again when I have items to get rid of.
