If you are looking for white glove service - this is the company for you! The care and skill is more than excellent. We have used them several times, the last for downsizing our home to an apartment which involved first moving to a storage unit for 2.5 months and then out of the storage unit to an apartment. Each time the quality was superb. All the guys treat your belongings as if they were their own - a treasure of a moving company! Thank you Bob and Scott and the entire team.

Bob and his movers are fantastic guys! 12 years ago Bob the Movers were recommended to my parents by their friends. After seeing how professional, prompt and caring they were toward my Mom and Dad on two different moves, my husband and I hired Bob to move us, (2 different times). Just recently, (last month in Dec '21) I called Bob to move a coach from Eastern Passage to Porter's Lake. Bob said no worries, they move anything from one piece of furniture to a house full. All this after a very long day of heavy lifting, shaking and moving, Bob and his boys sill had energy to move my coach. They are

We have moved many times over the past 25 years and no other moving company we used in the past compared with Bob The Mover. They were friendly, efficient and took great care when moving our belongings. I highly recommend this professional family-owned company to anyone who wants to experience a great move at quality pricing. Thank you Bob The Mover!!
