Highly recommend! Kyle, Don, Clay, and Gene were punctual, polite, and professional. Kyle went above and beyond, even fixing a loose screw in my server! Moving can be extremely stressful, but they made it a breeze. Kudos also to Chris, who answered my questions before moving day and was always pleasant and helpful. Choose Changing Places for the best move you'll ever make!

From the initial contact getting a quote to the completed move the team was exceptional. Leading up to the move contact was made with us often to see I if we had questions and came a few days before to make sure they had the right team for the job. Exceptional experience. Everyone was friendly, professional and took special care with all of our goods. They worked hard and efficiently. Highly recommend, very positive experience!

Kyle and Riley were terrific. They were prompt, efficient and extremely helpful in getting our things in our house and placed carefully where we needed them placed. This was our third experience with Changing Places Moving.

I moved recently and used Changing Places Moving. They were fantastic! Six gentlemen arrived at 8:00 am with two big trucks. They were all so professional, so careful with my fragile items and even constructed special boxes for those items when necessary. They worked so hard and were all so wonderful to work with. My crew consisted of Walter Myers, Clayton Roberts, Brandon Nagy, Donald Prieur Jr., Dustin Legerwood and Nathaniel Nosegbe. I also want to mention Paul Jones as he and Dustin came back to my house the next day to tighten my headboard. Thank you Changing Places and the wonderful men who helped me move. Barbara Coburn

Best movers we've ever had! We've moved many times over the last handful of years. I rarely post reviews but these guys went above and beyond. They packed our kitchen quickly and professionally. They moved my family of 4 efficiently. Everything was placed in the appropriate room, so no extra rearranging at new home. Storage room was organized for me! Safely moved our piano, and they moved a couch out of an upstairs window. All the guys were professional and hard working. Best of all their quote was accurate. (The last move cost double another mover's quote!). Would use them again and again.

Kyle, Justin, and Josh assisted us in our move. They showed up on time. They were extremely careful with our items, and guided us as to where to place things when we were uncertain. They did an excellent job getting all our items loaded, moved, and unloaded in a timely and careful manner. Chris who booked our appointment was very helpful and responsive in answering questions along the way and letting us know what to expect! I highly recommend!
