So overall, super positive review for Tonya and her helper, Mike. She was so incredibly accommodating on a super short-notice cross-country move. She actually ended up moving our belongings out of our previous apartment all on her own--she didn't have a helper for that part of it. It was my first military move, and I didn't know all of the details the military needed for their paperwork; Tonya was actually able to provide some insight on what to expect and what might help the process easier. She's incredibly thorough with everything she does, from paperwork to discussing details. She kept me updated as she moved, drove, and even sent pictures. She's personable and chatty, and even took the time out of her *very* busy schedule to drive an hour one-way to meet us in person before moving our belongings. Incredible woman, and she really does know her stuff. Her experience shows through in her process and the precautions she takes, both concerning the mechanics of moving and also with concerns to COVID safety measures. The *only* thing I'd advise others of is to give Tonya the patience and flexibility she shows you. She deserves at least that much. She went to incredible lengths to make sure we got our things into our home as soon as possible--and I mean *incredible* lengths. After an entire day of moving, she still made the trip down on a late Saturday night to ensure we had a bed to sleep on after sleeping on the floor for two weeks with our infant son. She stays busy through her day with her business and taking care of her own daughter, and thus timing isn't always spot on because each move is different. She took great care of our things and she'll make sure to take care of you too.

I'm extremely anxious when it comes to having my dogs moved from location to location without me being there as our dog gets very difficult to handle when she gets separated from her family. But Shane has exceeded any expectations and was very cooperative and understanding. My husband and I are both in the military and unfortunately that means our dogs have to do a bit of a traveling as well to be able to stay with us. I was very nervous on having someone I didn't even know and only had spoken to on the phone drive my little dog cross country but after finding out that he was a fellow Marine, I knew he could be trusted. I gave him and his wife plenty of frantic calls and texts when I was getting anxious about the trip. He was very polite and prompt with responding and often sent me pictures. She seemed so happy and comfortable I almost thought she wouldn't want to leave Shane to come live with us! I'm SO glad that he was the one we decided to transport our little baby. I'd recommend him to anyone and I'm extremely satisfied with his work. Thank you so much Shane for reuniting our little dog with us!
