I hired this wonderful company to move my parents in January and hired them again in May to move my parents to their new apartment. Every time they moved my parents they had the most professional and helpful movers. Very accommodating and going above and beyond. I was a professional mover and this company in my opinion deserve a 10+++++ rating. You would not be disappointed. They are the best out there.

Outstanding service! I used Christofferson to pick my one item out of a house that was using them for a local move. They pulled my very old and very very delicate old china cabinet, wrapped it like it was their own treasure, and drove it 950 miles to my door. With a few texts back and forth with Sean it arrived on time (to the minute) and in perfect condition. The movers were professional, kind and of course part of the Christofferson family. Highly recommend using this company. They are simply the best at what they do.

I have hired Christopherson Movers several times to transport vehicles and motorcycles for me. I have been extremely satisfied with their service and professionalism. Everything has arrived in perfect condition and when it was promised. Sometimes BEFORE it was promised. I will not hesitate to use them again.
