Read What Customers Say About Bellhop Movers in Washington, DC
My movers were Majid and Semyon, if you book Bellhop, ask for them. Two of the finest movers I've ever had the pleasure to work with. They were efficient, tactical, personable, and persevered through the worst the old building had to throw at us, which was a lot. We would be lost without them, and so I'd recommend having them along on your next move. I told them I'd give them 6/5 stars, it's important that you consider this a 6 star review. Thanks, guys.
