5 stars for sure!!! I used Sappington & Son Moving Inc for my move, and I couldn't be more satisfied. The team was professional, punctual, and incredibly efficient. They handled all of my belongings with great care.

I hired Sappington's to move a washer and dryer...they pulled the electric wire out of the dryer. They never even offered to have someone come and look.

Might be fine at moving. I wouldn't know. They never called me back. 3 stars for the benefit of the doubt. Assuming that they were unable help me...the professional thing to do would be to call and inform me that they were unavailable.
