Best movers ever! They moved us from our condo to our home a few years ago and we've had then back for in-home moves recently. Yes, it will cost more than finding someone on an online task app, but these guys are pros. Efficient, knowledgeable, take care with your home, and are friendly on top of it. And quick! Hire them!

Happ movers were very nice and efficient. I was redoing my floors, so I hired Happ movers to move my furniture to the garage so that the floor people could have access to the whole house. They were at my house on time, they packed up everything carefully, and moved it all. They provided coverings for the mattresses and pads for the wood furniture so that it could be safe while in the garage.
When it came time to move everything back, Happ showed the same timeliness and they were very careful not to damage my new floor. They even put felt on the bottom of the furniture. When done, the house looked just like it was when they arrived for the first move but with a new floor. Their guys Kevin, Otis, Christ, and another gentleman whose name I missed were extremely friendly and professional. Thanks for a move without any headaches.

This is the second time we've used Happ Movers. They are so meticulous and careful with items. By way of example, so much care was given to our grandfather clock down to not getting finger prints inside the clock. They think about the details and from what I learned speaking to the movers, the employees are long-term employees, Very efficient, thorough, and pleasant. It's a joy to have them as movers. HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend. I honestly wouldn't use anyone else.

Chris and his team were wonderful. Very professional and so helpful with explaining everything. They were careful with the antique pieces and took care to double check with us on everything. Chris was so kind to acknowledge how moving can be such an emotional time for many which I thought was so neat. Overall, a very good experience with nice guys and would definitely recommend them to everyone.

Great experience from beginning to end. Kevin, Israel, and Jack showed up on time and were quick to get my stuff moved. They were also very careful so nothing got damaged in the process. I've dealt with movers in the past and can honestly say Happ was the best experience. Will definitely use them again.

I Called 3 weeks ahead to schedule a piano move. Apparently the date I had selected was busy for this company. However, they found a time on the date that i needed! Called me the day before to reconfirm. Called 15 minutes prior to arrival. Very courteous. Wore masks. Moved piano to my daughter's house across town in the same suburb, took the piano up 2 short flights of stairs and placed it in position in her room. My daughter commented on how courteous the movers were on arrival at her home! Thank you for the excellent customer service! Move was completed 9/25/20

We used Happ Moving for a local relocation from Deerfield to Lake Forest. The best compliment I can give is it if I move again anytime soon, I will not even consider another company. The crew was timely, professional, friendly and remarkably efficient. Do yourself a favor and make sure you contact Happ before you consider any other moving company on the North Shore! Rick P

We hired Happ Movers to move my eldery mother. They were extremely professional, accomadating and did everything right. They called advise us they were on their way and arrived on time. The crew was polite, careful and efficient. The final cost was within the estimated range. I wouldn't hesitate to us Happ again or to refer them to someone else. Thanks guys!

This is the second time that we used Happ Movers. Our crew was Chris O., Peter, and Otis. They were fantastic. They are friendly, professional, and very accommodating. The move went so smoothly thanks to Chris's leadership. Most importantly, everything made it to the new place in perfect shape. They are also less expensive than some of the other moving companies. They are a great company. P.S. This posted from San Francisco (have to check that out!) but this is from Glenview, IL!

Make this your moving team! They are hands down the most service oriented moving company I have dealt with. From the initial phone call to schedule, to the actual movers, I am so pleased with my experience. If you are considering a move or simply need them for a quick shuttle of items, do consider Happ Movers. They will not disappoint.

Happ Movers moved my piano from temporary storage into my home. Kevin and Chris were amazing! The job took about 15 minutes and they walked me through each step of the move. The hardwood floors had just been redone and they were very attentive to making sure they were protected. Pricing was very fair. I highly recommend Happ Movers!

The people at Happ Movers are AMAZING! I used them to move my sister and her boyfriend from 2 different houses down to one, as well as my elderly parents from their home into a seniors elevator building. Jack, Kevin, Chris A and DJ were the bomb! They were fast, professional, affordable and fun to be around! I will never use anyone else. Thanks Happ!
