Zaid and his crew of two men were absolutely amazing. Before booking with Zaid, I looked at many companies and it made my faith in the moving business plummet very quickly; everyone I looked at were either charging ridiculous amounts to move a one bedroom, or would be reasonable and then I would find horror story reviews on them. I finally found Zaid, who looked reasonable and legitimate, but I was still very nervous about being screwed over or getting surprise charges.
The second the move started, I was relieved. First off, Zaid and his crew were at my storage area at 9:54 am for a 10:00am move. I don't know anyone driving a truck that comes early! Zaid and the men with him were very nice, introduced themselves and got to work immediately. They were fantastic! I had a lot of old, beat up furniture, and the men still took the time to wrap any items that had shelves and ask about things that looked like they had previous damage.
Although we hit traffic, Zaid and his crew drove the truck as quickly as possible to the new apartment, which I found great. Again, I've seen many truck drivers who will deliberately drive slow or take a longer route in order to get the most they can out of the hourly rate. Zaid was so far beyond this expectation and again, the men worked very quickly.
I personally work in an industry that requires moving of trucks and big, awkward furniture, so I am pretty good at judging how long it will take for a move. I estimated the timing realistically knowing how long it takes to move certain things, and these men still did better timing! Even with the awful traffic adding a significant amount of time, they were done at my apartment almost an hour before what I was even hoping for!
Also, literally no damage was done to my belongings, which was in fact, amazing. I moved out of my previous apartment in an emergency and packed very quickly. Nothing was wrapped well and I fully expected some things to be broken because of the haste and lack of care I packed with. These guys are the best!
And again, Zaid and the men with him were very professional and also kind, actually making conversation with me during the move and chatting politely at the end. They actually cared about making a personal connection with the move and were the friendliest movers I have ever seen. Truly a delight to have as movers, and they are definitely the only movers I will ever use again and recommend to others.
Definitely book with Zaid! His company is everything it promises, and even more wonderful on top of that!
