federal moving systems

I recently moved from Allentown, PA into Manhattan, and I knew I couldn't do it on my own even though I didn't have a ton of stuff. Federal Moving System's had good reviews, so I got a quote and decided to hire them. I only scheduled a week in advance, and they were really accommodating.
They showed up right on time at 9 a.m. on a Saturday. I had everything packed beforehand, but they brought special boxes for my tv and lamps. It took them half of the time I expected to load up their truck and then we left to meet them at my Manhattan apartment.
When they arrived, they immediately worked out a system for moving things up to my fifth-floor walk-up. I felt so bad for them because it was really hot out, but I decided to tip generously. They finished getting everything in my new apartment at 11:30 a.m.--only 2 1/2 hours after they first showed up.
One of the movers, was really friendly and made a lot of small talk. It made me feel comfortable with having him handling everything I own. I even saw him a few days later and he remembered me.
It's hard to move in Manhattan, but these guys will make it fast, easy and relatively affordable.
Thank you.
