Just hire them! Chris and his entire team at SC Moving are fast, friendly, and fun. They move quickly but they make sure every piece of furniture, kitchenware, and electronics is fully protected and safe for the move. They are kind and respectful with each other and with you. Moving in general can be a stressful event, but Chris and his crew will do their best to make it as easy as possible. We've used them twice since moving to Maine. I would recommend them to anyone looking to move.

I cannot tell you how wonderful it was to work with SC Moving for our whole house move last week! They were consummate professionals and took the utmost care with our things. We hired them for packing and moving services, and my only regret was not hiring them to pack the kitchen as well. We are definitely giving them a call back when our in-laws move at the end of the summer. Worth every penny!

Did an estimate before we even started packing and guessed how many boxes we had. He seemed nice and accommodating. Turns out we needed to keep extra furniture and we had some extra boxes then the estimate. I called in advance of the move and notified him. He said he scheduled two other moves that same day and wasn't sure he could take everything. But he gave me an estimate anyways quoting all the extra furniture and boxes.

Now it's moving day. They first arrived 20 minutes late. Wouldn't be a big deal to me if they hadn't rushed the whole time because they were late to arrive and the extra moves they scheduled but during their rush they seemed a bit frustrated, handled my items a little rough, and not to mention all the stuff they couldn't fit in their box truck because there wasn't enough room despite me calling ahead and quoting me for taking everything.

Now I have to spend 2 days at my old place moving things they forgot with my truck which is a little ridiculous since we paid them to move us. I notified them ahead of time and I paid the difference of the separate quotes. Disappointed in the quality/professionalism.
