de-cluttering before listing house for sale

The workmen arrived exactly on time and proceeded immediately to work. They moved every item we requested of them so quickly that they finished the work we thought would take at least 2 hours in less than one hour. We gave them additional work which meant we had much less to do.

Yard Work

With the spring like conditions, I thought I would get a jump start to some yard work I posted from the past summer. Knowing I wouldn't be able to do it all myself, I used this site to help find some help. I am glad I did!! I should have looked into Rent-a-Son alot earlier!! The job was done alot better than what I would have done!! Very, very friendly and polite - if only some of the major retailers out there would adopt the same level of customer service we'd be better off!! I will without hesitation use these guys again, and have already reommended them to my own friends and family. You won't be disappointed!!!

Moving Services

We hired Rent-a-son for our trade show move-in and move-out. They were very efficient and effective. The staff, from booking to the actual move, were very accommodating and flexible. We will definitely use them again.

moving

We have used the Rent-a-Son service twice in the past 2 years and will be using them again next month. They have always been on time and are very courteous. Our furniture was handled with care and the job was always well done. I would not hesitate to recommend them to family and friends.

Great mover

I like to save a couple buck as much as the next guy. But moving is always a daunting task to me and my back. I called these guys after seeing an ad on the local paper. I am glad I did. It save my back from lots of pain and I was able to spend time doing my many other tasks on my move-in date. I highly recommend this mover.

Andrew the Good

Andrew is new with Rent-a-Son. He's taller than my doorway. He has U of T stuff on that says "football." I think he's the football build.

He was certainly strong. He was able to carry two heavy boxes at a time, while I had trouble with one. He was considerate. My place is a disaster, and he just calmly took it all in stride. He followed direction well and worked on his own as much as he could.

Andrew was kind and patient. Now that was the reason I chose Rent-a-son! I think this company stands out by hiring gentle giants. These are baristas of the moving industry.

Moving

Guys who came were friendly, the price was great and service was fast and didn't damage anything. Wanted to move a few things between two houses and they did an exceptional job. For sure I'd recommend this again

Gardening, cleaning, small moving help in general

I have used Rent-a-son for the last 5 years or so.....every year and sometimes more than once a year. They do wonderful garden work and garage clean-up. The sons are always on time and you can increase your hours if the job requires more time after they arrive.

They have always sent the most conscientious, polite and hard working young men to help me out around the house.

They are and will continue to be the first company I call when I need help for jobs I can't do on my own.

I highly recommend them to everyone!!
