Simple Moving Labor

I hired 2 Pro Movers from SML and they had my 12' truck fully and securely well loaded within 1.5 hours. Extremely efficient and made great use of moving pads, pillows, comforters etc. to maximize storage effectiveness as well as protecting my belongings. I drove the truck from CA to OR and all items well intact and in perfect condition when I unloaded the truck (esp my 50" plasma TV!!) I would recommend this service to anyone. Thank you again SML for making this move as easy as possible!

A huge thanks to Ryan and Kevin for helping my daughter and I move our belongings from the storage unit to our new home. They were polite and cared about how they moved our stuff. SML did not break or scratch any of our belongings, and they took very heavy pieces of furniture upstairs. We did find some broken things from the original overs, one item which was an heirloom and cannot be replaced. I wish I had known about SML before our big move across the country. I would have used this company instead of the larger moving company. Thanks again!!

The movers were very professional and willing to do anything I asked of them. They were hard non-stopping workers. I would highly recommend them. They made my move much easier on me. They were willing to move boxes upstairs, downstairs and anywhere I told them without any hesitation, they did a great job! Anyone needing movers to help with their move, I would recommend SML and I will use this company again and will refer them to my family and friends. Good job to my great moving team!

My wife and I used the SML Pro Movers service to move into our new apartment in the Seattle area. I found out about them after booking my rental truck with Penske, and was very pleased by the discounted offer they provided because of my Penske rental. Prior to arriving, the Pro Movers called to confirm a time of arrival and were very prompt. The team was very well organized and executed the move in an efficient manner. While they worked quickly, they were also careful not to damage our belongings (although our computer desk was damaged during the move-in, SML does provide compensation for any damaged products). Overall I was very pleased with the courteous and professional manner in which the SML Pro Movers executed our move-in.

SML services were exceptional: professional and efficient.  The two-man team was courteous and just plain nice.  Everything arrived 1400 miles later still well-secured and without a scratch.  I was on a tight timetable and worried about whether they would arrive on time and how long it would take to load.  Despite a 109-degree temperature, they loaded from a third-story apartment without complaint and very efficiently.  Their home office checked in the day before and the day of loading, before and after to ensure their timely arrival and my satisfaction with their service.  I would definitely use this team again.  .

I will not be using SML again. I payed a lot of money for the "pro" experienced workers. Once I called SML to schedule loaders and unloaders, they charged me more than what was stated on site because of the distance. I had to "work around their schedule" days prior. Then they called me less than 24 hours in advance to tell me that the workers couldn't come till after 12p to load my stuff. My move was three hours away and I had already scheduled an appt to sign my lease at 3p. I called SML and complained and even asked for a discount bc it was their fault that they were late and double booked moves. Unloaders.. They were 4 hours late.. Bc the people had car problems! SML- needs to be better organized with back up.. I was very disappointed. Nothing got broken.

I contacted SML for laborers to load a one way rental truck. I was given the option of hiring just laborers or experienced loaders at a higher cost. I chose the experienced loaders, since my husband has health issues and could not supervise the project. First, I was contacted by SML office on the day before their arrival for confirmation. Second, they were suppose to arrive between 9 & 11 AM. At 11 AM, they had not shown; I called and asked where they were. After calling 2-3 times, they finally showed about 1:50 PM. They stated they were suppose to be off that day due to lack of work. The team leader stated he had worked for SML for 18 years; the  other guy acted as if it was his first day on the job as the team leader had to tell him every move to make. Third, I had rented 2 dozen furniture pads; they used those; plus all the blankets and rugs we could find. However, I still had a huge gouge in a night stand and my washer and dryer were all scratched up. Due to their tardiness, I called the office, stating their tardiness had cost me money and ask for compensation. The office wanted me wait until they were finshed and then negotiate. I said, "No, for I do not want a huge surprise at the end." Finally, we agreed to a free hour. Fourth, the loaders knew I had smaller items I was going to be putting on the truck; yet, they tapered the loaded items to the very back. Our departure time was delayed several hours rearranging the loaded items to get the remaining items onboard. Needless to say, I was not a happy camper.
