I cannot recommend Sappington and Sons highly enough! Their policy of no minimum hour count is a massive win for fair pricing. Kyle and Jay were fast, efficient, and treated my heavy office furniture with total care.

Yelp
I hired Sappington to move my Mother's 1 bedroom apartment. Even though I kept changing the dates, they worked with me and did the job. The guys were very careful with all furniture.
Negative Sappington & Sons Moving Inc Reviews
Slow movers highly priced.
I called for a free estimate. They came and told me the next day. Way too expensive for no more stuff than I have. They were nice and polite though.
Yelp
While moving the dryer down from the washer, they pulled the electric wire out. They never offered to have someone come and look.
Neutral Sappington & Sons Moving Inc Reviews
Might be fine at moving. I wouldn't know. They never called me back. The professional thing would be to call and inform me they were unavailable.
