No! My elderly mother just paid them $10,157.00 They had to move her from one house to her new house less than 50 miles away. She had a crew of 5-6 men each time they came. They were late 3 of the 5 days and left early one day because of the heat.They loaded heavy boxes on boxes marked fragile.They chipped many pieces of furniture. Also just as many pieces of lamps, table legs, and other items were just plain lost.No way would I recommend this company to anyone.

Last week 1/25, I had the opportunity to work with 3 wonderful guys of John’s Moving and Storage. The experience from the beginning to the end of our move was a great experience. They were professional and did a great job! Thank you John’s Moving Team!

We learned about Johns Moving and Storage from our realtor and could not have been more pleased. Office staff Jill and Jennifer are great when it comes to responsiveness and accurate estimates. The moving team, which we have used on two occasions now, is incredible. Polite, professional, extremely careful with items, and adept. And there were no surprises when it came to financial settlement. In fact, on both occasions actual charges were less than the estimate. We can recommend Johns without reservation.

We recently used Johns Moving & Storage for our move and we were very impressed with how courteous and professional they were. We had our stuff picked up one day and delivered several days later. Both teams made sure to introduce themselves to each of us upon arrival. They had everything quickly loaded up on the truck. The day of delivery, the team again very quickly unloaded everything and had it all in the assigned rooms. There was no damage to any of our belongings, which was impressive because we have some very heavy furniture. I would recommend this company to anyone needing to make a move

Our experience with John's Moving moving was great. They helped us with a local move in June 2020. The guys were took their time wrapping every piece of furniture so it would not get damaged in the truck, and were very careful when moving everything into the new house. They even hauled our heavy exercise bike up to the third floor! They finished our move in less time than was originally quoted, so our bill was less than expected. I would recommend for a local move.
