Best movers ever! They moved us from our condo to our home a few years ago and we've had then back for in-home moves recently. Yes, it will cost more than finding someone on an online task app, but these guys are pros. Efficient, knowledgeable, take care with your home, and are friendly on top of it. And quick! Hire them!

Happ movers were very nice and efficient. I was redoing my floors, so I hired Happ movers to move my furniture to the garage so that the floor people could have access to the whole house. They were at my house on time, they packed up everything carefully, and moved it all. They provided coverings for the mattresses and pads for the wood furniture so that it could be safe while in the garage. When it came time to move everything back, Happ showed the same timeliness and they were very careful not to damage my new floor.
They even put felt on the bottom of the furniture. When done, the house looked just like it was when they arrived for the first move but with a new floor. Their guys Kevin, Otis, Christ, and another gentleman whose name I missed were extremely friendly and professional. Thanks for a move without any headaches.

Happ Movers moved us into our new home and also did a separate move of furniture between rooms within our home. Their crew is so friendly and professional- they made our move a breeze. It could not have been a better experience. I give them my highest recommendation!

Terrific crew! Packers and movers were great. The whole move was swift and painless. Very reasonable too! It was cold and raining but they got it done without tracking dirt. Highly recommend.

Happ movers were friendly and efficient. We hired them to move a piano and the process could not have been easier. I would definitely hire them again to move a piano, or my 4 bedroom house.

This is the second time we've used Happ Movers. They are so meticulous and careful with items. By way of example, so much care was given to our grandfather clock down to not getting finger prints inside the clock. They think about the details and from what I learned speaking to the movers, the employees are long-term employees, Very efficient, thorough, and pleasant. It's a joy to have them as movers. HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend. I honestly wouldn't use anyone else.
