Because of our commitment to being the best moving company
They were wonderful. They did just great. They were friendly, professional, and on time. We had a 7,500-square-foot house, and we took stuff from a storage unit to two different houses, so it was a lot of work. I'd give McKendree an A+

I had a lot of furniture stored on my main level because I was redoing my upstairs, and they came to move all the furniture back to my second level. It was a small job, so they packed it onto the back end of a larger job, and it was just really well-handled. They cleaned up after themselves and finished in a timely manner. I'd give them an A
