I hired "Your Friend with a Cube Van" to complete my move from a one bedroom plus den condo at Bay and College to a house in South Cabbagetown. I dealt with the owner, David. I could not have expected a better experience. When I first called David explained their services, the price, their insurance coverage- all the details one would need to make an informed decision.
They had excellent reviews on Homestars and a very competitive estimate ($400-500 plus tax) so I decided to give them a shot. I was not disappointed. Th movers (including David), showed up 15 minutes early. The movers worked efficiently and tirelessly to complete the move as quickly as possible. They were very careful with my items, wrapping them in protective plastic wrap. On a couple of occasions they found items I had forgotten in drawers and rather than just dumped them into a random box, they asked me where I would like to put them. They also hustled. I've used many movers before and a lot them drag their butts and take breaks because they are charging by the hour, but these guys worked tirelessly to get the job done, without taking a single break. I should also mention that the movers were very friendly. The move was completed faster than I expected and nothing was damaged. The total price of the move came to $420 plus tax (on the low side of the estimate). I gave them a good tip because the value they provided exceeded the price.
The attention to detail, efficiency and hard work of these guys was incredible. It was clear to me that David is an industrious entrepreneur that cares about his business and understands the importance of doing a good job since the industry is largely referral/reference based. I would use these guys again in a heart beat.
