This was nothing short of a wonderful experience! Marcus, Ryan, Ben and Brandyn were everything you could ask for when moving. They handled a family heirloom as if it were their own. They were diligent, on task consistently, and extremely polite. In this current environment, you are blessed to have employees who represent your company in this manner. 10 stars if I could!

David's crew were polite, personable, and incredibly efficient. They did a two day job in one, which saved me from taking another day off work. I would definitely recommend using them for your next move.

The Herlihy staff was responsive and helpful in estimating and planning my move from the beginning. The movers were on time, friendly, professional and very accommodating. My new home has difficult access and, when they arrived and couldn't get the loaded van up the driveway to the house, without a word of complaint, they carried everything up two fights of stairs and several deck levels! And not a thing was broken, or damaged in any way. I couldn't have asked for better service! Also, to my amazement, the bill actually came in under the estimate. I would absolutely recommend Herlihy to anyone needing their services.

The Herlihy team members did a great job. The "moving crew" was careful, hardworking, friendly, and well trained. They even finished two hours ahead of the estimated time, which saved me a significant amount of money. I would not hesitate to recommend Herlihy to anyone who could benefit from their services. I rate them a solid 5.
