We had an excellent experience with John Q Moving! The team was professional, efficient, and took great care with all of our belongings. They wrapped all of our furniture carefully and placed it exactly where we wanted it to go. John also coordinated with our new building manager, making the move seamless. Also, the quote John gave us was exactly what we were charged. We highly recommend them and we'll be sure to use them for all of our moves going forward!
