Five-star review
I had a terrific experience working with Jimmy! … I called on a Thursday for a Sunday morning move. I needed to leave super early due to a 13 hour drive ahead of me and needless to say, no one was willing to help me out...except Jimmy. Not only did he agree to make it happen, he brought an extra set of hands and got everything moved out and loaded into my truck perfectly for the trip up the coast. … Nothing moved during the journey and everything was in great shape when I arrived. Can't say enough good things!

We hired JFMS to pack and move my elderly in-laws. With over 40 years of accumulated items, this was no small task. All of the antiques were handled with care. This was a multi-day project and the guys were on time and worked hard. They took a stressful situation and made it easier. They were friendly and professional and I will definitely recommend them to anyone that is looking for a good mover in the future.

I've moved a lot over the past few years including transatlantic moves, cross-country, business moves and personal ones. … Jimmy, however, is really great! … We have done a full service move (packing and unpacking), a complicated move (sending items to storage and several locations), and easy moves. I've also used him for business moves. In each case, Jimmy was a pleasure to deal with and very responsive and professional. The guys showed up on time and worked hard the whole time. … Nothing broken in any of the moves! …

Jimmy and his guys are great! They were able to move us with just a weeks notice. Jimmy is very honest and we knew our stuff would be taken care of. … I highly recommend using Jimmy and his company. …

James, alias Jimmy, moved two small loads for me from San Francisco to Portland and was fabulous. Finding someone who is reliable, flexible and reasonable (both in temperament and price) to do a small load is nearly impossible, but he did it and did it with such good humor. He helped me pack when the time was tight and got everything here without incident. I wish I had a picture of his carrying a 10' by 12" wool rug over one shoulder!

So as most everyone knows, moving is not at the top of the list of fun things to do. Well, Jimmy and his guys really, really made our move from California to Oregon a great and fun experience. … They were very hard workers and they were pretty fast loading up. I was incredibly impressed when they (just two of them) lifted and carried a very heavy BBQ from a 2nd floor roof deck … I had to change the date several times and each time Jimmy was very accommodating with no complaints. …
