I used John and two of his crew to help load a moving truck. They were not only efficient and knowledgeable, but also very nice guys. They had my truck loaded in much less time than I expected and were thoughtful in packing to avoid items being jostled enroute. Everything was still secured after my 12 hour drive to New York. Overall, my experience was very positive and I would highly recommend them for anyone needing help moving.

He saved my hide this past Monday. I had arranged for two movers from Big Guy for hire to assist me for two hours. The movers followed through as promised and were available to help me move as scheduled. Unfortunately, the company where I rented a van did not have a van available as promised. While I waited for a van, the time of my move came and went. John had another move scheduled and, understandably, could not wait around for the van company to locate a van. Although he could very easily (and justifiably) declined to help, he agreed to come back at the end of the day and help me move. I HAD to be out of my apartment on the day that I had scheduled the move. Without moving help, I was in a fine mess. Despite the fact that it was raining, getting dark, and he had just completed a move that involved going up and down five flights of stairs, John came back and helped me move. And, he did so graciously and without irritation. Truly a lifesaver!!

We hired John at Big Guy for Hire to help us move larger appliances and heavier furniture that we were unable to get into our home. John was very responsive, prompt, professional, courtesy and grateful.

I hired them to have two guys help my wife and I move from a 2 bedroom apartment into our new home. We rented the truck and they showed up to load and unload all of our boxes and furniture. I was extremely impressed with their efficiency. They showed up right on time, and I wasn't home yet with the truck so they began by stacking all the boxes so they could use the dolly and take them all to the truck when I got there. They worked very quickly and were carful to pack the truck so that nothing was damaged. Following the move, we had zero items broken or damaged. They were able to complete the move in 4 hours total, which included two trips back and forth to the home because I didn't have a large enough truck for our stuff. I would definitely recommend for moves if you are willing to rent the truck yourself but don't want to do the heavy lifting.

We had to move many items out of my mother-in-law's home on a last minuted basis. Including a refrigerator and a washer and dryer. Since moving was short notice many of the items were not packed well or packable (e.g. drum set, guitars, etc). John was available on short notice and he and his partner called to see if it was o.k. to arrive early on the day of the move which made me happy. We switched out refrigerators and washer and dryers at house A and B without any problems; they even assisted in disassembly. For the haphazard items they moved them from the basement to a portable storage container. Overall everything went smoothly. Overall the move was successful. I really only needed them for moving larger items, but ended up having them stick around longer to assist with some of the smaller items. They were courteous, respectful, and fun to work with. I would recommend them to anyone who is looking for assistance with moving

The friendly part can be very important when you are stressed out about moving your stuff!Also, it was difficult to get big items around corners and through doorways but they found a way. Sometimes very cleverly! Another big worry about moving that I didn't have to worry about.I'm going to use this company for all of my moving.

A call to John at BIG GUY for Hire resulted in exceptional experience for me.  John listened to my requirements and pointed in the right direction on their website to book a date and time. John and his assistant, Derrick, were right on time and in a matter of an hour were able to move furniture from multiple locations. John and Derrick were a pleasure to deal with and they were instrumental in the determining the proper placement of the furniture. I would highly recommend BIG GUY for Hire to anyone in need on moving services, particularly if you are moving into a new office.

John and Derek met me at the truck rental place at the agreed upon start time. John took care of driving the truck. After a quick review of my items, they got to work loading up the truck. Both John and Derek did a good job of working quickly, efficiently and carefully when loading my things. They unloaded all of my things at the new house and put items where I requested. Again, they worked quickly and efficiently.They also took my king size bed apart and then put back together at the new house. This team worked quickly and carefully and there was no damage to any of my things.The whole move was done in about 3 1/2 hours. The price was fair and they were pleasant to work with. John was GREAT with my dogs !!!!!!I would definitely hire this company again.

My wife and I are in the process of selling our home in Ann Arbor and still have not found another home we are interestred in. Big Guy moved part of furnishings to storage as we were staging our home for selling. John and Dereck were fantastic and as others have said, I can not believe how fast they were. They did a terrific job and when our plans get finalized, I am sure we will use them again. Thanks for a job well done.

We had John and his helper, Derek, work with us for about 9 hours moving us from 2 locaions. The second location had some challenges that were not expected. In order to get furniture out, we had to remove and reset some doors in the house.. They handled these surprises without a problem. I can only say good things about the job that John did for us. Arrived at the Uhaul place 15 minutes early to get the truck. We had the misfortune of having to move in the snow, but they were able to work through that without problem. At the end of the job, they returned the truckto uhaul.

I used Big Guy For Hire Moving & Labor Services to move furniture in my house. It included moving a treadmill upstairs. It was perfect. They came to my house right on time. They disassembled a 90-gallon aquarium and moved the parts downstairs and put it all back together. They took apart a treadmill and took it upstairs and put it back together. They did it all inside of an hour. I would absolutely use them again

Unfortunately, I this is the 4th time I've moved in 5 years. Fortunately, this time I heard about Big Guy for Hire before making my move. The Uhaul that took my brother and I over 4 hours to load (from a garden level), John and his team member were able to unload to the new 3rd floor aparment in under 2 hours! Very impressive! This included a solid wood desk from the 50's that made it up unscathed. I found them both to be very polite, and felt at ease with them in my new home. I would definitely use Big Guy again for my next move.

They came to my house and moved an entertainment center upstairs, a table downstairs, and three dressers from one room to another on the same floor.Things went very well. I didn't want to hurt myself and my friends via "do-it-yourself," so I called Big Guy John. He hired his friend(?) and came to my house WITHIN 24HRS and moved my heavy furniture around the house without damaging my furniture, walls or floor. The price of $100 was okay for me and okay for them. They showed up on time and were very nice and did not in any way seem threatening to my family or property. I'm sure there are a lot of unemployed, strong guys in our city who would rearrange five pieces of furniture for $80-$100, but it is difficult to figure out which ones you can trust not to bring problems or flake-out.  John has established a reputation on Angie's List, so he's the guy for me. He claims to be insured, so that is a bonus, if true. I don't need to deal with a disability lawsuit over 30 minutes of assistance around my house. Because John has to commit to paying his assistant when coming out on a job, John requests that a customer deposit be made in advance. This is not how I prefer to do this kind of contracting, but it is pretty risk free, if not hassle free, because John would not ruin his extensively built reputation just to scam one or two people out of a $75 deposit.I kind of had a preconceived notion that they would have some kind of equipment like dollies or canvas strap harnesses, etc., to help them move furniture. But, they are just big guys who know how to orient, tilt and rotate furniture well. They...
