Testimonials

I can tell you that I received extremely good service for the money. I was frankly astounded y the efficiency, speed, care, and simple strength demonstrated by your "moving ladies"- a quick look-around, making sure what was moving and what was not, and then it ended up safely boxed and ready to be moved.

On the following day, nothing was required of me until the truck was unloaded on schedule. And then your ladies took over and not just unloaded the boxes, but organized my apartment into a comfortable living space with a specific place for every single thing. I have been here for over a week now and I now know where everything is and I have yet to think of some more appropriate location for anything- largely because there just isn't one.

I have moved a lot during my life, and this involved three continents and I always associate "moving" with utter chaos, but not now. I have now that chaos turned into essentially a work of art- a ballet, with Jaymie as the head ballerina. Thank you very much for your talented efforts.

Gordon

You had us convinced from the first visit that your company was the one to go with. Even though the price was higher than the competition we felt we'd be getting value for the money. You proved us right.

I really appreciate that you were able to pack and donate the remaining items I was not able to take and then that you made sure that the house was cleaned. I received an email from the purchasers of our home and they said they were so happy that they could move right into a clean home. So again, thanks for doing such a great job.

We were very overwhelmed and dealing with a lot at the time. Your guidance and coordination was exactly what we needed. Mom is very happy, and we are all very relieved. With many thanks from our entire family. THANK YOU, LISA!

Lisa and her team were a life raft in a time of chaos. Not only were they extremely organized and professional, but Lisa 's compassion for my grandparents was genuine and her respect for their feelings regarding this change was invaluable.

The Seniors Moving Company is a proud member of these organizations
