Moving our furniture and belongings with efficiency and care.

I needed two strong men to move our things out of storage and divvy them up into three groupings on a truck: some going into storage, some going to Ottawa with us, and some being given away to a charitable organization.

Two guys show up on time and move quickly into action, not just loading the truck as fast as possible but organizing as they go. Nick is definitely a better organizer than me, and I'm good...just ask my daughter
Sara. They did a great job and they did it quickly. I'm impressed and I would recommend this moving company to anyone looking to relocate.

Filling two uhauls with garbage and donations

I have used Rent-A-Son many times in the past, and this time did not disapoint. I had to clear out a house with items/garbage going to the dump. They loaded the uhaul, then cleaned while we took it to the dump, and then were ready to load it again with donations. I always recommend Rent-A-Son to people I know. I just moved to St Catharines.... any chance of starting business in Niagara? I would be a for sure customer!

2 guys to help us load our PODS

We needed help loading our PODS for our move and the 2 guys who helped us were amazing! They are expert 'POD packers' and without them, I am sure we would still have stuff on our front lawn. We have told at least 10 friends about Rent-A-Son already

Move

We hired 2 sons for our move. These guys were efficient, fast and friendly. These aren't bums, these are good kids who work hard and pay attention to instructions.

We'll use them again for future moves.

In home moving to undertake renovations

Ive had many good experiences with Rent a son helping with yard work and clean up and their moving service did not fall short either. They found me someone for a same day service and the customer service rep. kept us in the loop as she found us somebody. The young man who came was excellent! Will use them again.

moved furniture into a storage container

I used Rent-A-Son to help move my furniture from my house into a storage container. My customer service worker was upfront, followed up with our conversations, and was not pushy. The workers were on time, worked hard, and courteous. I will likely use them again to help place the furniture back in my home when ready.

Moving services

We were relocating from Toronto. At that time, i was not in a situation to get any immediate help. The rent-a-son guy did a great job in helping me move to my retirement place. He was very patient and kind with me and took care of belongings fine. I appreciate their selfless work! Great job!

Moving furniture within house

We had some heavy and awkward-sized pieces of furniture to be moved between floors. Rent-a-Son sent 2 men the same day we called; they were efficient, careful, friendly, and professional. We will certainly be using this company again.
