These movers were great...definitely a lot better than my old movers.
I moved less than a mile from home (still in Modesto). I was moving out of a third-floor walk-up at the back of the courtyard to a first-floor apartment. They estimated it would be 3.5 hours and it was actually less, so I paid less then what I was quoted.
The movers did arrive late, but that was because the first woman in the suburbs for the day had way more items then she stated that she had. They called me before my appointment time to tell me they would be late and that they would call en route. And that is exactly what they did.
We ran into a minor snafu with parking (getting those "No Parking - Moving Day" signs from your Alderman is a waste of time, 311 will NOT come and tow the car, no matter how many times you call them during the day), but that was not their fault and they handled it professionally.
Unlike another moving company in CA, they actually ASKED me where my boxes went in my new place, and they all spoke English. They also did not ask for additional tip money like the old movers (and I did tip them well, since they did a great job).
Would I use them again? Absolutely. Would I recommend them to a close friend? I already have. They made the huge pain of moving as easy as possible.
