I was selling a house and moving into a condo. The two deals were closing the same day so I wanted a afternoon move and could only book an elevator for 5 pm to 8 pm. I started to call movers and afternoon moves seemed to be a big problem. I called 3 movers and listened to the problems. One even said I could call the Movers Association. I wanted to load by around 1 and get from Hamilton to Oakville and ready for the elevator by 5. I was told there could be no guarantee about when the movers would arrive. It could be 12 or 6 pm. Well that was no good. If I arrived at 8 the elevator booking would be over. I was on the edge of hysteria and remembered to look at Home Stars. I saw the ratings for Arby Cartage. I called and spoke with Arby and he said No Problem. I went from hysteria to hey that is what I want to hear- No Problem. The men and truck arrived and no matter what the guys were polite and even said - no problem to my requests and suggestions. We were loaded and on the road and had time for lunch and got together at the building. The dock was small and there were issues but nothing seemed to be a problem. The men got the furniture and boxes up to the unit and there was no damage to my stuff or the property. I cant express what it means to have someone that you can rely on in such a difficult time. If you are looking for a -No Problem type of attitude and someone who can follow through and do exactly what he says he will do call Arby at Arby Cartage. And his staff are polite and follow through. And dont forget to tip the staff generously because having help you can rely on is priceless. Thanks Arby I tell everyone about you. Jessie Pearce.

I had a 2 bedroom upper apartment with a main floor studio and sitting room and a couple of basement items to move from Toronto. I had a deal closing on the Toronto building and a deal closing on a Hamilton house. I found the move and closings very stressful. Arby's staff were amazing. They packed the truck so well, none of my great number of boxes tipped and nothing was damaged. The movers gave me opportunity to see if I like the placement of furniture and boxes. I could change my mind and they were patient and fun. I will use this service again and highly recommend them. Thanks Arby for your help. When we couldn't figure out how to get the key on closing your idea of having the selling Real Estate put the key in the lock box on the property and then having the lawyer in Toronto call with the code to open the lock box on the property when the deal closed, was great! Suggesting a change of time to a later time also saved me a lot of time (money) waiting for a double closing. You are the best. I am so thankful. J.R. Pearce
