I used Ray The Mover and Marathon for packing, moving and storage services in spring of 22. Excellent experience start to finish. The quote was easy to obtain with the mobile app and competitively priced based on other quotes I pulled. The movers arrived on time and in good spirits to pack me up. I paid extra for kitchen, wall art and lamp packing.
They cranked it out with all the correct supplies. Apologies to the crew as I forget their names at this point, I held off doing a review until my experience was complete though I know for sure Jesse was there on both ends. They then stored my stuff for three months and were available to deliver on the exact date I preferred. Jesse, Junior and Mitch were equally efficient in unloading my stuff.
Nothing broke during the whole pack/move/store/move experience and the guys were very accommodating to move furniture around prior to departing. Working with Ray/Marathon may have been the most pleasant experience in my whole relocation process. Kudos all around.

I can't say enough good things about this team. The driver was extremely helpful and his team worked extra hard to make sure our family was happy and items where placed exactly where we wanted them. Our move from NH to FL was flawless and we felt like we where in great hands the entire time. If we ever move again they will be the only company we call.

Unbelievable what we just experienced. We've been planning for approximately a month to have Ray The Mover move us from Newport NH to Hooksett NH. We had a virtual tour, worked with someone on an estimate, and BOOKED for 5/28. We were told they'd come between 10am-11am that day. 2 trucks. We asked about paying a deposit and they said to wait until the estimate was finalized.
We never heard anything else and assumed it was because we'd be sending a revised list of items to move. Today, THE DAY BEFORE OUR MOVE, we called to confirm they had received our updated list, get a corrected estimate, and confirm the time they'd be arriving TOMORROW. They're not coming. We "never paid the estimate, so they never booked us." COMPLETELY OPPOSITE everything we were told/that was communicated.
They never once attempted to reach us about a deposit either. Would not recommend attempting to work with them. Completely unreliable, unprofessional, unorganized. Can't wait for a response that they're "sorry", passively blame us, and we get no actual resolution to their major screw up. Read another review - we're not the first this has happened to.

I had a last minute local small business move that needed to be completed last week. The quick response and scheduling flexibility was reassuring. I was able to schedule the local move a few days out. I only had big, heavy furniture that needed to be moved. On the day of the move, Mike, Junior and Joe arrived earlier than I expected (which was great).
Although I could tell Mike and Junior had been doing this for a while, all three were professional, personable and had everything moved out quickly. Although I felt bad they had to move all that heavy furniture up a flight of stairs, they moved quickly and were efficient. I appreciated the walk throughs before they moved anything in the beginning, once everything was on the truck, before they unloaded the truck and one final time to make sure everything was where it was supposed to be. They definitely made having to move a little less stressful.

We are delighted with our experience with Ray the Mover. This was our 14th move and by far the best. Ray the Mover came to our house, gave an estimate for the move, assigned an internal specialist to communicate every step along the way with contact numbers for all relevant parties and took a lot of stress out of the process. The packers were kind and understanding people who couldn't have been nicer. The long distance driver was amazing. He coordinated the actual date of delivery to accommodate our schedule on the receiving end. It was like being moved by family.

Ray the Mover handled my recent move from NH to FL. Everything was handled professionally. From the initial quote, packing, loading and delivery, all went smoothly. Michelle, my move coordinator, was great keeping me informed every step of the way. Everyone who worked on my move was terrific, especially my driver, Chris.

To whom it may concern: For my upcoming Government move to Germany, I was recommended by Rainier Overseas Movers, to use Ray the Mover, based out of Manchester, NH to accomplish the task of moving my personnel effects. The team of Jesse and Junior, were on schedule/on-time, courteous, friendly and showed professional etiquette. Making it less stressful, for my upcoming move. I would highly recommend Ray the Mover to any individual/family requiring a quality move. Best regards, Nick H. of NH

We had never moved a long distance before. We chose Ray the Mover. That turned out to be an excellent choice. Received a quote and it turned out to be a little less. The crew arrived on time and proceeded to wrap and pack. I received a notice on when delivery would be made. They provided the drivers name and cellphone number so I could contact him on arrival time.
He arrived on time. The items shipped were so well packed, that I could not guess what some of the items were until they were unpacked! You will not make a bad decision choosing Ray the Mover. The employees are the best!

I have to give credit where credit is due and boy is this due. I kid you not when I say this was my sixth (6th) move in just this year, 2021 and I would say I am an experienced client having moved both domestically and internationally. Whomever chose our guys chose the perfect guys for us. I can not say more about our crew who were professional, polite, handled our things with finesse, and had a sense of humor all the while.
To add to the stress of a move our dog failed and with care and compassion our crew helped us get our beloved companion into the car for his last ride. I swear they cried with me as they hugged me.following the news the next morning. From the first contact with Kathie Keane we were headed in the right direction. Our team Chris, Sean, Jessie, Michael, Nick, and Carter were spot on and accomplished there mission ahead of schedule.
If you have a choice for your movers I would HIGHLY recommend Ray The Mover without any reservation. Believe me when I say I know a good mover from a bad one. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, this could have been a terrible stressful mess, instead albeit being extremely hard and sad it was not stressful. Thank you everyone who was involved with making this happen and with such a positive outcome. Take care and Happy Holidays to you all at Ray the Mover.
