Long-distance move from Connecticut to Nevada

Thieves.

Becareful! they send people to your house who they have no clue about. They sent thieves to my house and stole my lap tops. Becareful they could send murderers to your home! SML had no compassion about the actions of their employees or whoever they sublet the contract to. All the care about is their money and not their customer.. I will certainly not recommend these people to pack or unload .

Service cost: $456

Long-distance move from Pennsylvania to Colorado

Outstanding moving experience.

We were referred to SML by Penske after renting a Penske truck.  The woman who placed our order was polite and friendly.  She did an excellent job of explaining our options.  We opted for two "professional movers" for three hours to pack our truck.  With the Penske discount the cost was $186 (plus $113 per hour for each additional hour pro-rated to the half-hour). Bob and Omar arrived on time (in fact they were a few minutes early).  They were friendly and polite.  They worked diligently and efficiently.  The boxes and items were packed together like the pieces of a puzzle.  Everything was secured well and protected well (we supplied the rope and blankets).  Nothing shifted during our 1800 mile move and not one thing was broken or damaged. They were a pleasure to work with and made our move much easier.  On a scale of 1 to 5 stars, Bob and Omar deserve 6 stars.

Service cost: $299

SML loading and unloading.

I had two decidedly different experiences with SML. The pickup was spotty. The workers arrived a bit late, but they were not bad. They did, however, gouge my door frame, even though I told them to take the legs off a desk. The delivery was excellent. These guys were professional, prepared and quick. They did not put any dings in my walls or damage the furniture.

Service cost: $500

Moving Help.

I recently hired 2 SML movers to help unpack a truck after my cross country move.  They were on-time and ready to work.  They were careful and very aware of fragile items.  And they made sure to deliver items to the appropriate locations in the house.  All in all, it was a great experience.  While I hope I don't have to move again, any time soon, I will certainly call SML for help next time.

Long-distance move from Massachusetts to Illinois

Moving Labor only.

It was such a relief to have two strong movers empty my grand daughter's college apartment in Boston. Her belongings needed to be moved back to Chicago. I rented a Penske truck and dreaded the thought of having to load the truck. I knew we had friends and family at the destination. However, I was delighted to discover that I could hire labor in Boston just to load the truck. They were early, hard working and pleasant. The cost was minimal and they movers appeared to be grateful for the tip. I would use them again if I ever had the need.
Thank you.

Helped unload a truck.

I drove a Penske truck across country.  I asked the local Penske rep for a name for some help to unload the truck at my new place.  They suggested Simple Moving Labor.  The price was reasonable and the two fellows showed up about 15 minutes early.  They were experienced movers.  They carefully unloaded everything and helped put it all in the new place.  I would use them again.

Long-distance move from Texas to Indiana

SML review.

Our loading crew in Texas was two guys and while we were on the third floor, I think the two guys were out of shape and had to take frequent breaks. It took the two of them with a lot of help from my dad and husband to load the truck. However they arrived on time and were very pleasant.

Our unloading crew in Indianapolis was amazing. We decided to hire three helpers instead of two based on our experience with the loading. These guys were awesome. They showed up early, were extremely polite and courteous and best of all, they were fast and worked well together. They really seemed to know more about what they were doing and worked hard to get things done efficiently. They had all of our truck unloaded into our new 3-story townhouse within 2 hours. They were great.

Service cost: $300

SML Pro Movers.

Rented a Penske truck for a partial move and hired for loading only. We upgraded to Pro Movers because we needed laborers with basic tools.  While we were very happy with the Pro Movers, we were surprised to learn that they came without any tools whatsoever.  Thankfully we were able to improvise and our truck was loaded within the 3 hour minimum. We would recommend SML with the caveat being that you make sure that the Pro Movers actually bring tools!! Would definitely use SML again!!

Long-distance move from Ohio to Nevada

Pretty Mediocre, but labor is labor.

I have to give them credit for moving me to a second floor apartment in 100 degree Las Vegas heat.  I could not have done it alone.  I hired the pro-movers.  I found this to mean that after they break things, they take pictures of it and claim that it happened during the move.  I probably should have filed a claim on some items they damaged, but I just did not want to take the time to fight for likely a few dollars.

Long-distance move from Pennsylvania to Minnesota

Not what I expected.

We paid premium for the "pro" movers assuming they had experience and knowledge in how to best load the truck. They were hard workers but not the "pro" quality I was looking for as they didn't pack the truck in a way to maximize the space. They left the heavy stuff for last and packed it all on one side, making the truck lean to the right. It was nice to have someone else do the labor but I don't think we received the "pro" movers, more the muscled helper type.
Also they called Thursday letting me know that the Saturday move we scheduled (as in two days away) was no longer available. We had to wait until Monday to get the services. They did discount by 10%, but it cost us in valuable time.

Service cost: $517
