We used Southside Moving and Storage to move a piece of medical equipment that weighed about 300 pounds. They gave us the most reasonable estimate, were friendly and professional from start to finish and provided on the move the day they promised. I would definitely use them again.

I've used these guys twice now for a move and both times they did amazing. I couldn't be happier. Eric(k) is such a great guy and a pro at what he does. When I move next - I'm calling them now question. Thanks for everything you all! You make a stressful day a heck of a lot easier!
