   Very professional staff

   They were on time for the move. Both movers were very respectful, careful and knowledgeable in their task. They both stay very focused throughout the entire move, set up my big items (such as bedroom and living room furniture), an insured nothing was damaged. if I had to move again, I would definitely want these two particular movers

   KC move out

   We used Hire a helper to move our daughter out of an apartment in KC and for help loading up our rental truck. The team was efficient, on-time, professional, respectful, and friendly. Highly recommend!

   Best movers anywhere. Ever

   Chuck and DJ were so great and went above and beyond. We were so pleased with everything and definitely recommend them to anyone that asks. We had an issue with one piece fitting in a room and Chuck figured it out and took care of us. Best moving help experience we've ever hired (8x moves). Not one single scratch or mark on any furtniture or wall...that's a first with any moving company! And thats moving huge heavy furniture, washer, dryer, fridge etc. Seriously just the best guys. So friendly, careful, courteous and crazy strong!!! Thank you so much for such amazing service!

   Loading and Unloading

   I used Hire A Helper to help with the loading and unloading of my trailer. The loaders were amazing. Everything was carefully loaded not one item was scratched, broken, or damaged. Unloading was done by another company. Extremely careful. Everything that needed to be assembled was. Boxes were put in their designated areas. I am beyond thrilled with this service.

   Broker bad, movers ok

   This is a broker service. There is no guarantee, and they have your cc information from the beginning, so good luck arguing unless you go through the fraudulent process with your cc company. I used movers in Michigan for a long-distance move. It was very difficult because it was a multi-day move. This is not a use local service though they mention this in the ad. The closest movers they recommended were over an hour away which also caused problems in completing the job. I was also charged for their travel time to my location!

   Poor Movers and no protection for damage

   A Plus Movers in CT were hired to load my storage container were late, unprepared and unprofessional upon arrival. All documented in real time. I had to insist that they use the protective blankets that I PROVIDED because they were damaging my inventory as they were moving my items into the storage container. They loaded the POD poorly resulting in over $4000 worth of damage, discovered after my POD was delivered and unloaded by very good movers I hired. This included a complete loss of my $3000 mattress. After providing all the photos of the damage, including how the container was loaded, I was offered $200 for my loss. The cap for the basic coverage for damage is $1000. The claims department refuses to provide the max protection. This is my third moving company I hired through HireAHelper in three years. I would not services again and I would not recommend them.

   Avoid like the pla

   Avoid like the plague. Used this service for a recent move with Rat Pack moving containers. Rat Pack referred me to Hire A Helper to hire people to load and unload my containers for an August, 2025 move from NJ to FL. In Florida 3 men showed up in an Uber. When they were getting towards the end one young guy asked for a garbage bag. I noticed him tying it up and said not to as I would put more paper in the bag. He said he would do it and I said no I would do it. He was being a little too insistent. I took the bag from him, it was one of the large black construction bags. I put the bag away and waited till they left. When I opened it there were several articles of my son's designer clothing (who recently passed away) and liquor he was trying to steal. About $650 worth. I still don't know if more is missing. One of the guys was dripping in sweat and laid down on the brand new carpet in the bedroom. It was a very hot and humid day and of course the house was cool with the ac running. I had given them $40 each as a tip. Hire a Helper did refund the tip money. However Hire A Helper is refusing to refund the whole amount. Jody's service said they would be willing to refund me back what they were paid by Hire A Helper. I believe HAH takes 30% as their fee. HAH claims I hired Jody's they did not. If I paid HAH how can they claim this? Just horrible customer service. They take no accountability for the people THEY RECOMMEND. I would NEVER RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY. They are just the worse.

   Read This Before You Prepay Them

   I booked and prepaid for a two-hour service on October 1, 2025. The service I paid for was not performed, and absolutely no work was done. After multiple attempts to resolve this with customer support, they have refused to issue a refund and have kept my full payment for a service that never happened. I will delete this review after the issue is resolved. If you are reading this, it means HireAHelper still has not done anything about this, and the same could easily happen to you. Please be aware of this risk before you pay, as there are more trustworthy options available.

    DO NOT USE!

    They will take advantage of your vulnerability! My husband and I needed to move within 24 hours and they showed up! great right?! No! They literally disassembled a sectional without letting my husband or myself know. We had already placed it for them to load it up into the truck, but instead they took it upon themselves to dissemble the whole entire thing to the point where we cannot use it anymore. Do not get the insurance because the insurance is a scam. They will not cover the damages! They bent our 50 inch TV broke two lamps and one cabinet. The customer service basically told me that it was my fault that my couch took itself apart during transit. My couch was $8000 and I don’t know about you, but in this economy, I do not have the money to buy a new couch! Please be aware of this company. They will help you out in a pinch, but it’s gonna cost you more than what you bargain for. I should’ve read the reviews, but was in a hurry to move. Penske told me they were five star moving company, but I know now they are definitely not.
