This is how all movers should do business. Stephanie came out to my house, walked through and gave me a detailed estimate based on my actual stuff. No surprises. The estimate was very reasonable. I was sent a detailed contract to sign, so I knew that they would actually show up. On the day of the move, the movers were efficient, respectful and nice. Shout out to Robert, Jesus and one other guy whose name I have forgotten. Three guys were very efficient and the packing and the unpacking the next day went very smooth. This was a very low stress move. Thank you!

Two men arrived on time and went to work. Our short move included some fine furniture. They were very careful. As far as we know, nothing ever was damaged or missing. I would use them again!

We had to change our moving date 3 times. Each time, Michelle could not have been nicer, and was very helpful in finding dates that would work for us. We were very concerned that the van would not be able to make it to our driveway for delivery, but Nick the driver, did an amazing job of backing up a long street. Nick also did an excellent job of managing our loading and unloading. We had no issues, and were very satisfied with our move.

Wow! I used this company to move from Florida to Massachusetts and was mostly happy. From the man who set everything up for me to the support from movers to Massachusetts. Everything arrived in perfect shape, and delivery on Massachusetts end was perfect! I dropped one star because the person who picked up my boxes in Florida wore a mask for a while, but would not accept another one from me when it came time to sign paperwork. Covid is real. Its part of the reason I moved to Massachusetts, where masks are mandated. No one has approached my new home without a mask.

Ray the movers have been moving for us two times a year for the last three years. They are careful, conscientious on-time, and value priced. They're fully insured and keep to their commitments. We have had other movers doing our moving, but I have to say that the people at Ray are head and sholders better in every way.
