I am beyond impressed! Hector and crew showed up on time and he has great communication. They hustled the whole time they were here. And the packing of the POD was perfection. I had two PODS, one half loaded, when Hector was done not only did he load everything from our second floor into the POD but he unloaded most of the other POD and packed it in with the stuff they moved from the house. He packed it efficiently and tight. I had him take a picture as it was packed right to the edge. Great job guys!
