Moving from Whitby to Kingston.

The movers were very friendly and efficient, we've used Rent-A-Son twice before and this is why. This time we were a little disappointed by some damage to our new home caused by the movers but Rent-A-Son followed up immediately and actually sent someone to repair the damage and they did a great job! I was very impressed by their recovery of the situation! They keep their promises and make sure you are 100% satisfied. Well done and Thank You!!

Movers

Hi!
My wife and I just moved from one side of toronto to the other and used rent a son as our movers. The team that came out were a bunch of great professional guys. They started by thorouly packing and protecting some of our more delicate items and than getting everything into the truck for the move.

Upon arrival the guys were always asking where things should be put. Nothing was broken during our move.

I would recommend rent a son to anyone on their move. Excellent!

A Big Move

We just moved between cities -- Rent a Son was amazing! Rob coordinated everything perfectly before the move. He was responsive and accommodating -- finding solutions when we had our closing day moved forward. He made a stressful time easier.
And the team of six movers who made it happen on the day were fantastic. They were tireless and positive--great to deal with, and willing to do whatever it took to get us moved. We had 4 different locations to deal with and they got it done. Even on a blisteringly hot day capped off with a major storm.
I can’t say enough about their commitment to making sure we got what we needed. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Rent-A-Son to anyone who needs moving help.

Toronto to Montreal move

Was extremely pleased with everything. From the way the quote was done to the packers who came early, the move from Toronto to Montreal and the unpacking. Absolutely no surprises. The Rent-A-Son team was very professional and courteous and I would not hesitate to use their services again and recommending them.

moving

I moved from a ground floor apt. to the 5th floor of a building. the movers were on time and got to work right away. I was amazed at how efficient and organized they were. Abdur and Joey worked hard all morning. They set up my bed first thing so I could let my cat out of her carrier bag and keep the bedroom door shut. All in all the move went as I was told it would. They were friendly and hard working young men.

Move

Our movers showed up on time and did all the heavy lifting that was required. Set up of furniture in new residence was excellent. An emotional/stressful event for my family moving my father into a retirement residence- this was one less thing to stress over. Thanks guys!

Moving across town

Rent-A-Son showed up on time and ready to go. Very polite, cheerful and easy to work with. We had a tough move with hundreds of heavy boxes of books and multiple stairs at both ends of the move, but the guys stayed with it and got the job done. Professional and friendly, they were a pleasure to work with. And price was right on the quote, so we were pleased about that, too.
