On Monday morning Vladimir and his team with their 26 foot truck arrived at my daughter’s house in Lino Lakes. Since my daughter had to work that day, I was on site, which was really fine with me because before I retired, I was a Facilities Project Manager for Carlson Companies and travelled the US and Canada coordinating commercial office moves. I always loved working with the trades and the moving crews were always my favorites. I was not surprised when Vladimir advised my daughter that they would not be able to complete the move with one truck. He immediately contacted the office and asked to have another truck and crew for the move. It has always seemed like a magic trick with moving companies have been able to “pull a rabbit out of a hat” and make what appears to be an impossible move, possible! Within a short time Ben and his crew arrived and it got a little noisier as Ben entertained us with his great sense of humor. And, would you believe, they filled both trucks? The situation was became very stressful when the buyers informed the real estate agent that the would not release the funds until the house was completely cleaned out and all owner items removed. In years past, I would have been able to carry my share of the work, but at the age of sixty-eight with artificial knees, my contribution was limited. Vlad and Ben never blinked an eye. Everyone stepped up and swept out the huge three-car garage, cleaned up items in the back yard that had been buried under the snow and loaded my car with two cats and two fish tanks. Then the situation with the piano raised it’s ugly head. Undaunted, they man-handled the upright, which probably weighted between 600 and 800 pounds, out the door and down the steps. And at the new location, I held my breath as they carried it up another set of stairs. When we arrived at the new house, they cheerfully took direction from my nine-year-old granddaughter, Lexi, as she told them where things needed to go. They finished up by unloading four U-Haul Moving and Storage Pods which were sitting in they driveway. I cannot tell you how much I appreciated these six young men – nothing phased them, whatever I needed done, they did. You should be very proud of every one of them! I would be pleased to serve as a reference for you at any time.

The Two Men and a Truck (TMAT) 3-man crew completed the move with care, start to finish. They arrived at the scheduled time, individually introduced themselves, and completed the job in an organized and professional way. When they arrived, the crew chief, Ed, explained their loading process to us and answered our questions. He effectively managed his crew (Chris and Dave) and gave clear directions to them. He was an excellent leader. He and the crew carefully packed our furniture and other items and completed the loading process on time. When they arrived at the destination, our newly purchased home, they unloaded the truck with the same care in a timely manner. Each of the crew members was personable and engaging, and we trusted that they would complete the job in a thoughtful manner. They did. This move was our third move with TMAT. Each move has been completed in a professional manner, and we have been completely satisfied with each move by the TMAT crews. We definitely would recommend them and would hire them again!

Beware! Horrible experience! The two men took 3.75 hours to move 34 boxes (no furniture) from Bloomington to Edina and charged us $562. They left during the move because they "didnt eat breakfast" and were hungry. Of course we were charged for that time. Then, when they got back, they said they had run out of time and needed to go to another job so didnt even finish moving the rest of the boxes. They also said that they wouldnt move any "tubs" because they technically werent "boxes". Anyway, we were left hanging until Monday when they finally called to say they could finish the move but of course, there would be additional fees. We said "No, we are not paying any additional fees" and asked to speak to a manager. We were finally contacted on Tuesday afternoon by a manager who kept saying that he wasnt there that day so implied that we lying about everything. After a long discussion, he agreed to take $150 off of the bill. But even so, THEY NEVER FINISHED THE JOB! UPDATE: Never received the credit of $150!!

This review has been revised from yesterday. We scheduled a move for 8:00am on Friday. They never showed up. When we called to find out why we were told that the time was never confirmed by us. It was clear in the emails from them that we had confirmed a time and day. Eventually we spoke to a manager who told us the time they would arrive would be a window from 2:30-7:30. Very hard to re-plan everything around that. When we said this was unacceptable the manager offered us a $40 off the rate of $190 an hour. When the movers FINALLY showed up they were respectful and fast. This review would be one star if it wasnt for them. Moving is stressful enough without having the moving company not show up. We have the rest of our house to move after it sells and will not use Two Men and a Truck.

We used Two Men and a Truck 3 times in the last 90 days. Two of the uses were part of a remodel project in Chanhassen where we had to move things out of the house into a POD and then back in after the project was done. The other use was our son and daughter-in-laws move into their house in Minneapolis. In all three cases the teams were great. They arrived on time, covered the carpet, took great care to pack things carefully, move things carefully, not bang the walls, etc. I was very pleased in all 3 cases and would recommend them to anyone that needs movers. This last time we had Ed and Nick and were very good!! I cant recall the names of the guys we had the first time we have them move things out of our house, but they were excellent as well.

My Two Men were AWESOME! Josh and Brian did such an amazing job. They called right at 8am to let me know they were on their way. They did a brief but thorough walk-through initially upon arrival. They moved my furniture as if they were more than two men! Moving from a first floor apartment to a third floor apartment, I was worried that not all furniture would fit in the elevator...these guys made it happen. And in under the two-hour minimum! I was just moving within the same city, but still, it was incredible. I would definitely recommend their service and would use them again in the future.

Great experience from start to finish! The office team was very professional and prompt. They answered all of my questions (even the dumb ones!) and helped me totally prepare for the move. The movers arrived right on time and all three men were the A++ team! Kevin, Kevin and Aaron were total gentlemen and worked quickly and efficiently. We really had a lot of fun that day! Anything I asked of them that day, I got a "no problem, we will handle it" in response. Id highly recommend Two Men and a Truck to anyone moving. I will definitely use them again in the future.
