"My experience was very positive from working with Anthony to the actual move. Anthony who I spoke with initially was excellent." ~ Susan

"Beautiful process starting with the first phone call from Hughes Relocation after I called the number which I saw on Citizens of Lansdale page Everything promised to happen happened, including the 2 PM day before confirmation. Herberto showed up the next day at the time stated and loaded the truck within 30 minutes. They communicated throughout about the time that they would be at our apartment the next day in Boston and sure enough they actually beat us there they could not have been friendlier. An hour later, they were off everything was so clean and tidy and organized. I cannot recommend your group enough and the personnel that you hire. Heberto was fantastic. I received a call from Jana later in the day to make sure everything was going smoothly. Thank you so much for a great move!!! (Also best pricing!)" ~ Judy

"Outstanding move, especially given the disorganization of the household when packing began! The guys worked diligently and with a great attitude. The driver, Dave Hawthorne of Hughes, was terrific each step of the way, suggesting how to improve the move and how to smooth the process. I greatly appreciate his efforts and his flexibility. I was also impressed by the competence and professionalness of John Platek of Hughes, who originally assessed the move and worked with me to customize it as needed. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend United or Hughes, or use them again." ~ Randy

"The first crew arrived on time and very efficiently moved everything out of my house. They were pleasant and careful and I could sit back and stay out of their way.

My international driver, Trevor Duncan, was absolutely phenomenal! He suffered with VERY long waits due to customs computer problems, but was always cheerful and in communication with me. The move took a full day and he remained upbeat and never slowed down. He even asked if I needed a drink or something to eat! I have never had a mover concerned about me. He was very professional and conscientious, handling my goods with the utmost care (as if they were his own). I had to move most of it into storage and the unit was quite small, but Trevor was amazing at making it all fit securely and taking the time to protect more delicate items.

My coordinator, Vicki Amendola, responded to all my pre-move emails very quickly with the info I needed and checked in regularly during the move. It was a pleasure working with this company!" ~ Tanya

"Vicki Amendola, our move Coordinator, could not have been better. She was always available to answer questions and provide information. She made the move go smoothly and without a hitch." ~ Connie

"The crew that packed our home was excellent. They were very professional and took care with our most delicate items. We did not experience any loss or damaged goods when we unpacked.

The crew that delivered to our new home was also excellent. They called us to confirm date and time and were prompt. The crew unloaded the truck and placed all items where we requested. They even unwrapped our glass shelving to ensure that no shelves were broken or damaged.

This was a great experience and well worth it. Yes, United was more expensive than other carriers but considering how well everything was done, it is worth the extra cost to have peace of mind and knowing that real professionals handled our move." ~ Leonard
