Jacob and his assistant did an incredible job with my son Niles's move! As a local, family-owned business, they bring a level of personal care, efficiency, and professionalism that is hard to find. They took excellent care of all his belongings from start to finish and made what could have been a stressful day go incredibly smoothly. I highly recommend supporting this fantastic local business The Moving Magicians for anyone looking for reliable, hard-working movers. Thank you both for the amazing service!

I hired them back in June 2026 to help me move. Since then it’s been one issue after another. They caused damage to the interior and exterior of my home. He brought paint to fix it, but it doesn’t look right. They lost the screws to my daughter’s bed. After almost an hour of looking for it they found it. They presumed to set the bed up. I went to rearrange my daughter room and the bed is not completely put together and screws are missing. Not to mention they brought chewing tobacco that looks and smells like mint gum in my home. My daughter found and tried to eat it until I caught her she’s (6). I sent Jacob a message about it and never heard back from him. I paid almost $2000 for their services. This is not the type of service I expected to receive. I am not happy with you all at all. I will not recommend or use you all again.

Nkili, thank you for your comments. I would like to address each concern. Scratches on walls – this sometimes happens in a big move which is why I came back out 7/25 to paint the 2 places you had pointed out and left you the $70 in residual paint I purchased for your future use. Ding on wall – I returned to your home on 8/2 per your request to patch the 1 spot you pointed out , at that time you requested I just leave you the dry wall patch kit that I purchased rather than do the actual repair. I hope that was helpful and you were able to repair as needed, on your schedule. 6yr old daughter's crib – this was disassembled prior to our arrival however we agreed to reassemble per your request. In doing so, we used all the hardware you provided to our team, if hardware was missing, please reach out to the entity that disassembled the crib to retrieve. Nicotine pouches – per our 10-15 min conversation on July 11, I completely agree this child proof container should not have fallen out of my workers pockets. This incident has been addressed via training with the entire crew. The Moving Magicians was happy to assist you and your family in your 2 day move. We hope the 10% discount we provided was favorable. Thanks again for the comments, take care. Jacob

I can’t say enough great things about The Moving Magicians! From the moment they arrived, they were professional, friendly, and incredibly efficient. They handled every piece of furniture and every box with care, treating my belongings as if they were their own. The team worked seamlessly together, making what could have been a stressful day feel easy and completely manageable. They were punctual, communicative, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was placed exactly where I wanted it. Not a single item was damaged, and they finished faster than I expected without ever cutting corners. If you’re looking for a moving company that’s reliable, hardworking, and truly cares about customer satisfaction, look no further than The Moving Magicians. They absolutely lived up to their name! I would recommend them to anyone without hesitation and will definitely use them again for any future moves. Five stars all the way!

We used Moving Magicians for our local move, and you should use them too! Working with Jacob and Isaiah was easy - they were friendly, hardworking, and really listened when I pointed a few of our items that needed some TLC. There was good communication, and the costs were clearly laid out with no surprises. Just a really good, local company.
