Report
We had a short move in Charlottesville and I got two quotes. The prices were almost identical but Charlottesville Moving Solutions was much more professional. Their quote came quickly and they were very responsive with questions before during and after the move. The moving team was quick yet careful.

With very little notice, Student Services got a team of three over to our apartment to unload a 15' Uhaul. It took them less than hour. They were efficient, professional, and incredibly accommodating. We appreciated your help!

Student Services Moving & Storage moved furniture from my mother's house to a storage facility in Charlottesville. Dennis and Cory were great - very professional, knowledgeable about how to move the more delicate antiques, strong(!) and fun to spend the day with. I will always use Student Services Moving & Storage and recommend the company to my friends and family.

From estimating the move to the morning of the move and throughout the whole moving experience I was thoroughly impressed with the professionalism, curtesy, efficiency and the crew's willingness to do exactly as we asked. They finished well within the estimated time and all items were safely packed/delivered/assembled. Very pleased and can not recommend this company enough for a move!

Our local move with Student Services exceeded all expectations. Every step of the way, from planning the move all the way thru to the follow up after the move, we were treated with the utmost professionalism, respect, and consideration. We were updated at every step with detailed and thoughtful information. The moving crew was prompt, polite, patient, and extremely efficient. Moving, even locally, can be very stressful but with Student Services we were in great hands and am thankful for such a great experience. Would highly recommend!
