The flatrate moving team guided me through a tricky move where I had to move a lot of paintings, drawings and many heavy boxes. They made it super easy and painless. George helped to plan to the last detail and on move day Steven and his team made a difficult job look easy. I would definitely use them again and highly recommend to anyone who needs moving services.
