I cannot stress how very polite, competent, and on-task these movers were the entire time! Very happy! This moving company showed up exactly on time, and stayed until the job was finished. They were very polite, courteous, and carried themselves with the utmost professionalism. They also just clearly knew what they were doing when it came to moving things safely.
I had them pack a house into a storage unit, and they expertly arranged things into only HALF of my storage unit. I was so impressed! They even MADE a box for my canvas painting, which I had trouble finding a good way to store. If you want polite and efficient movers who behave themselves, then hire movers from this company! I WILL hire them again if I get the chance :

During the recent housing crunch, my family was in urgent need for a local moving company. I called numerous moving companies and left messages. I even filled out forms online and not one company was professional enough to respond. After a week of no return calls, I found "A Friendly & Affordable Mover" within minutes of submitting some information online I got a return call and my move was scheduled! The movers were courteous and professional. My move was completed in less than 6 hours.

The professionalism of the office staff and scheduling was great. The movers and the management of the movers - not so great. The movers showed up on time. I gave them time to get going. However, within the first 45 minutes it was evident they were going to move purposefully slow and take smoke breaks. At 150 per hour, I was not ok with this. I told both of them they need to do their jobs, as I'm paying 150 per hour.
One smirked at me. Oh, the joys of dealing with men as a female. I stopped what I was working on in the kitchen and started helping them do their jobs to save time. I contacted management and he showed up to apparently assess the scene. He said he would make the start time 45 minutes later as " it was only fair." The rest of the move was completed.
I was going to let it go and not leave a negative review, because in my mind it was remedied with the discount. Yeah, no. Shady behavior continues. At the end, management told the movers to charge me 86 dollars more than what was due, as I had already calculated it. He attributed his incorrect calculation to the fact that the 10 percent coupon had not processed. However, the amount added to my total was more than what would have been taken off when using the coupon.
Within a few seconds, he agreed my calculations were correct. In my opinion, I was treated this way because I am a youngish female existing without a man around. I figure they figured I am passive and wouldn't check behind them. Well, they were wrong. I see another review on Yelp from a woman existing alone that highlights shady behavior from this company. Looks like her husband was out of town. Business tip - Women also pay you, and not all women are scared to say something.

We hired the company to load a Uhaul. We were very happy with the team. The gentlemen were friendly, professional, and thorough. I asked for everything to be padded and wrapped, and they went above and beyond my expectations. I figured I would have to nag to pad and wrap like I wanted. However I requested it at the start, and they were VERY thorough. We have many glass tables, a jukebox, and other breakable items that were very well packed and loaded. They worked very efficiently.

Amazing movers! Came on time and walked the entire condo planning out their move and what needed to go. Once the truck was loaded they did a double check before leaving. When arriving to the new house they did another tour on where everything went and went right to work. Asking where somethings went. Best part, they finished on time and made sure we had everything we need. I will always recommend them.

The owner visited us to discuss our needs, he gave an estimate before he left. He was friendly and the estimate was affordable! On moving day three very nice fellows showed up. I challenged them to load everything we had into the truck and offered a nice cash bonus if they did.they did! They were very careful with our fragiles and antique furniture.they disassembled some items like the dining table. Everything went into a storage facility. I was very impressed and have recommended them to others on Virginia's Eastern Shore.

Moving Staffers assigned this company to provide my loading/packing services. I later found out Moving Staffers was a scam but that's for a different review. Affordable movers were not up to par. The movers entire conversation among themselves is that they're not liable for anything, and that kind of training results in poor work ethics. They don't care about the customers belongings.
I called the company with a concern while the movers were at my home and was told the crew's manager would call me back. However, that never happened. They poorly loaded packed my trailer and had no remorse. I wouldn't use them again. Response to Owner: That's not true. No one came out to the job and no one advised that boxes were poorly packed. The charge has been resolved. However, the charge had nothing to do with you all which is the reason I did not mention it in my initial review. Your response confirms the validity of my review.

Moving team was fabulous, friendly, crazy efficient, and just overall so easy to work with for our household move. We've never hired movers before, but from the initial quote to the unloading of the box truck in our final destination, we were put at ease and talked through every detail. They loaded everything safely, and anything we hadn't packed well enough ourselves they were quick to remedy.
Everybody had a great attitude despite how heavy/awkward some of our things are and despite the rainy day they were running through. They made an emotional and stressful time into some good vibes and a weight off our shoulders. The price was super competitive as well.

We moved from Newport News to Smithfield back in May 2019. Dan (the owner) was very pleasant to deal with. His team arrived on time, worked hard all the way (made two trips), all very friendly and respectful guys! I would definitely hire them again in the future.
