If I could give Wimps Moving 10 stars, I would! Nate, Brendan, Elijah and Mekane were real gents-- friendly, respectful and kind! And they took great care with moving my furniture and boxes.. even on a 95+ F early September day. It was pure joy to work with these fellows! This was my first time working with a moving company. I highly recommend Wimps!!

I needed a 1,000lb safe and a 600lb safe moved from my garage into my basement. One of the very few companies who would attempt it was Wimps. The guys from Wimps were super professional, super careful and fun to work with. They completed the job with no damage to anything. I am very happy and would highly recommend them!
