Moved on one of the hottest days of the year so far. Despite the heat, they were professional, friendly, and did a great job. Even came in under budget! I definitely recommend. read more

I hired Local Muscle Movers nearly 2 months before my scheduled move. The estimate included 3 flights of stairs. Three days before I absolutely had to be out of my apartment, they told me they didn't have the crew nor do they move furniture upstairs. I contacted them to confirm several times before with no luck. I have no idea when they were going to tell me they weren't coming. Was a horrible experience. read more

Very prompt online estimate process and an easy company to work with. All communication was upfront, clear and accurate. The two movers arrived on time and were very professional and great at their job. I've read reviews for other moving companies around town and unlike the reviews for some of these other companies, I felt very safe around the crew, they were friendly, hard working and I completely trusted them with my belongings and I will absolutely use them for the second and final part of our move. We had a 6' x 12' U-Haul, completely filled with boxes, that my husband and I needed unloaded into our new house. The movers got the boxes from the U-Haul to the first level of our home in maybe 45 minutes. read more

The team was really great...they arrived promptly, took time to assess what large items we had and then got started...and worked tirelessly until truck was loaded top to bottom...any two hours less that estimate! read more

Absolutely positively 10/10. They were incredibly efficient, and did an excellent job. Nothing was damaged, and everything was put in the right place. They were very respectful of my apartment and did not leave marks on the walls or muddy footprints or anything. I would absolutely use them again in a heartbeat. read more

We had an excellent experience for our move with Local Muscle in Burlington. They moved a few pieces heavy and bulky furniture from one house to another for us. From start to finish they were timely, organized, and professional. Our movers Isabel and Sumner communicated well with each other as well - as they were navigating the house and deciding how best to move the furniture around tight corners etc. The job was finished within the exact quote time we received and the cost was just as expected. We will definitely hire Local Muscle again for our next move. read more

Exceptional service and communication. The staff were very friendly and moved a heavy pullout sofa out of storage and into my apartment quickly and efficiently. Would use again and recommend. read more

The BEST! Bar none! I've moved many times in my life and I've never had such professional, kind, caring people before! I would use them again in a New York minute, but I really hope I never have to move again! Nevertheless if I do, Local Muscle Movers are the way to go. Rates are competitive and they don't dally. Austin, Isabelle & Kwawe had a 16' pod emptied of heavy stuff in 2 1/2 hrs! I don't think Superman could've done it any faster! Not to mention Pods delivered one wrong pod. Local Muscle worked it so that they could return the next day to finish our job...flexibility second to none! read more

Communicative, prompt, and efficient. Availability and price are also extremely competitive. Our entire move was right on quoted time, and the transaction didn't have any surprise charges. Their service is highly recommended! read more

Local Muscle comes through again. We had them move us in several years ago, and it was the best move we ever had. This time it was a last minute small job we just can't do ourselves anymore. Within a half hour they were her and done. Always a great group of employees, and I'd not go anywhere else. They go to great lengths to please, and it always is a pleasure. read more

We used Muscle Movers for a complicated move and they got all the details right. They were responsive, great communicators and super pleasant to work with. The move went off without a hitch, they were efficient and careful. And they came in under the estimate. If we need movers again they will be the ones we contact. read more

We did a local move 05452 to 05403. Small apt to another small apt. I filled out my inventory list and scheduled a move date. The communication prior to our move was excellent and they were transparent about all billed items. We had Travis and Steve, also known as the dream team. :) They were on time, very professional, very pleasant, and moved all our heavy stuff for us. They finished under the estimated time and did a great job! They were very careful with everything they handled. We are so thankful for the care they took to ensure a stress-free move. We highly recommend Local Muscle! read more

A top notch experience all the way around. Everyone I interacted with was responsive and helpful. The movers were great, and very efficient. I would highly recommend Local Muscle! read more

I just used Local Muscle Movers to unload 2 pods of furniture and other belongings in Plainfield, Vermont. They were amazing!!! They were careful, courteous, professional. They worked super hard, and continuously! What I thought would be a 6 hour job took them 2 hours! Highly, highly recommend! read more

I hired these guys for a move in May and was impressed from start to finish! They were responsible, helpful, very efficient, and friendly. They also took great care of my belongings. Would highly recommend! read more

Local Muscle Movers were timely, professional, efficient and handled everything with care. The projected timeline was 5 hours and they finished in around 2.5 hours. They did an incredible job and were hustling in the sweltering heat.They were transparent about billing and insurance, and our total cost ended up being less than expected. Will definitely be using their services in the future! read more

We needed help moving some furniture and boxes just within the house. It was a small order and but needed to get it done ASAP. Local Muscle Movers made it happen. They came within days, were careful, curteous, and had real muscles. The furniture was heavy their route was not. We higly recommend using their services. read more

After shopping around, I went with Local Muscle because their estimate was way more reasonable than their competitors. You only pay for the time used. The guys who showed up for my scheduled move, Jake, Kwawe, and Ray Co., were everything you want in a moving crew: friendly, efficient, careful. Real pros. They were done in about an hour and 15 minutes. I was highly impressed with their good nature, given it was a blazingly hot day. The only bummer was that LMM had to move my appointment back by a couple of hours to fit in another move. But they gave me a week's notice, and they added another mover without additional cost. Recommended! read more

Five stars!!!!!! Very professional, reliable !!!!! Can't thank them enough for the great service !!!!

Local muscle movers where recommend to my girlfriend and myself by a few friends. we split our move over 2 weeks. The guys that showed up for the first move were great! They move went smooth and effortlessly. The movers were friendly and professional. we were very happy. Two weeks later we hired Local muscle movers again to move the rest of my things. A different crew showed up this time. They were polite and friendly but nowhere near being professionals. My things where not moved with the proper care and consideration that they should have received. They didn't use any blankets or tie downs in the back of their truck. This lead to things getting dinged, dented, and scratched. They rubbed my new couch against a door frame during the move. I told the movers where the couch and bed should go they ended up putting them in different spots. I ended up moving my mattress and box spring by myself from the hallway where they left it into the bedroom. The worst part was that they left a large dent in the side of my new $900 washer! The most frustrating part is this was all preventable. I cannot in good conscience recommend them. read more

This isn't really a mark against the company. I just don't think they were able to meet my needs which was a pretty standard move. I had to have my current place emptied, hold a closing on it, hold one on the place I was buying, and then have my stuff delivered to my new address about 2 miles away. They seemed perplexed by this. They had no idea what would happen to my stuff while I closed. In addition, the estimate process seemed shaky at best. They asked me to inventory my items including the number of boxes I would have once I packed. I was told things would not make it to the new address if I wasn't accurate. I'm not sure why they wouldn't send someone out to look at the job and use experience to judge it. I had no idea how many boxes I would use and for that matter, is a box even a standard unit of measurement? I could use 1000 tiny boxes or one giant box. Anyway, I got scared off by these factors. I assume they are good for small jobs but for a larger move, and to be fair my move was from a 1200 square foot place to a 1800 square foot place so I wouldn't say it was that large of a move, they seem ill-equipped. I do want to stress that everyone was nice in talking with me. P.S. Thanks for the response, Brendan (Russell?). Let me quote part of it. "We offer free on-site estimates for larger residential and commercial moves, so in order to efficiently manage our sales staff we can't perform an on-site estimate for every prospective move on our calendar. This is to ensure we have the sales office adequately staffed to handle the volume of estimate requests we process by email and phone. With that said, for smaller residential moves we have to rely on our clients to provide us with an inventory list in order to accurately calculate labor-time." This is the problem. If you don't have enough people to send someone out to give me an estimate then I might suggest hiring more staff. I can understand relying on clients to provide an inventory when appropriate. If I had to simply move a piece of exercise equipment or was moving out of a dorm, for example, then my description of it should be enough to at least provide a ballpark estimate. I don't feel a prospective client should have to inventory an entire house just to get an estimate, especially when the stakes are some of my possessions might not be included in the move. read more

Used them for a move out of state and they were great. Responsive, fairly priced and the guys who came to do the physical move were delightful. Would recommend Local Muscle wholeheartedly! read more

I've now used Local Muscle three times, and all three were great experiences. I was happy with the level of communication, and they even accommodated a last minute scheduling change. They handle furniture with care, and best of all: they are fast. I was skeptical that our whole 2br apartment could be moved in two hours, but they did it. I also really appreciate their reasonable rates, and the fact that they only round up to the next 15 minutes rather than the hour. read more

The movers were great! They were very responsive, reasonably priced, and efficient. They handled our things with care and were easy to communicate with. read more

Professional in every area of my move, polite, reasonable affordable rates, respectful to my belongings, excellent communication Highly recommend ! read more

They were very responsive and friendly provided a quote quickly and showed up on time for the move. Unfortunately, as it later became clear, they were careless with moving our furniture. Several furniture items were damaged and weren't brought to our attention. We gradually discovered over a week of unpacking more and more extensive damage to our furniture. A bureau was scratched, chipped and a large hole busted in the bottom. Also, they busted the drawer of the only truly nice piece of furniture we had. (An end table made with exotic wood) The manager was responsive and willing to work with us to somewhat compensate us for the damage. But, the damage was many times more than they could refund us, since we didn't get the full replacement insurance. Furthermore, we didn't discover the full extent of the damage until much after the move. (partially because it wasn't mentioned to us) . read more

Wow. I rarely write Yelp reviews, but the exceptional service I received from Local Muscle demands it. The two young men who came were not only strong and capable, but they were smart and thoughtful, too. I had some difficult items to move and they thought everything through as they moved so that no damage was caused to either my items or the premises. They were punctual, hardworking, polite and optimistic. The move took longer than expected - likely because I had more items than I thought I did, not due to any sloth on their part - and they never made me feel like I was imposing on them. Communication was also excellent - they didn't require constant direction, but asked when needed so that things went where I wanted them. Seamless from start to finish, I'm thrilled with the service I received. Absolutely recommend. read more

Local Muscle came highly recommended from several colleagues so I decided to give them a shot. The booking process was easy and the move was painless. They showed up on time and were incredibly efficient in helping me move. There was one piece of furniture that had to be disassembled prior to carrying down the long winding staircase and they not only helped take it apart but also put it back together once we arrived. I've just booked Local Muscle again when I move out of my temporary spot and into my permanent location. Couldn't be happier with the service and price I received. read more

Couldn't have asked for an easier move! MB and TM were nice and cordial. I will absolutely use Local Muscle again. The overall price was lower then I thought which meant larger tip for the gents, they deserved it! read more

We needed movers same day to remove items from a storage unit, and not only did we get a response within the hour, but they were professional, fast, and extremely conscientious with my parents items. Thank you Steph and Cain!! read more

Great work in moving our heavy items from South Burlington to Monkton. Fast and efficient while also very careful with no casualties to any of the furniture moved. I would recommend to anyone doing moving in the area. read more

Really all positive. They showed up on time, they were courteous, professional and efficient, and the bill was less than estimated. Things were packed well and arrived on site undamaged, (except for one loose light bulb - my fault.). I would hire again. read more

Used them twice--there's a reason that I go back! Respectful, hard-working and they make good use of your time (and, ergo, money). I really don't want to move EVER again, but if I do, it's these guys. Shout- out and massive thank you to Ray and Sayer! read more

They were on time, called when they arrived, reviewed the agreement with me and looked at what I needed done and then they loaded it up. They traveled from Montpelier to Burlington in about the same time I did. When we arrived at my new place, they checked where they had to move items and then worked efficiently and quickly. They wrapped up and were very nice. Thanks! read more

Jake is so nice and professional. Ordered furniture from local store and had them pick up and deliver. They were half the price and by far the most professional place I called. Thanks!!! read more

I used Local Muscle Movers to help me move my things out of a trailer and into my apartment and they were wonderful!!! I would not hesitate to use them again on my next move. read more

We had a great experience with Local Muscle last week! We moved to a new apartment just down the street and had already moved a lot of our odds and ends, but needed some help with the bigger items and furniture. The guys from Local Muscle were friendly, efficient, and hard working. We would absolutely hire them again and recommend them to anyone who needs help moving! Thanks guys! read more

Had a small move today with Matt and Leroy. They were very careful in their handling of the furniture and avoidance of the woodwork and walls. Both young men were very courteous and obliging of any request. I would definitely contact this company in the future for moving needs. Tracy Morin read more
