They estimate all the possibilities given higher moving cost, yet they charge very less compared to estimated. Everyone came early and moved all the stuff in a very short time.

If you're like me, you're probably reading this because you're moving and looking for the best movers for you and your situation. You're reading as many reviews as you can hoping to make an overwhelming, worrisome situation just a little bit easier. So my situation may be different from yours, for context my fiance and I needed to drive 1500 miles from California to Texas. We needed someone to load an entire house in a 26' truck. Like most of you have or are in the process of doing I fielded many offers from different companies and I got in contact with Lee from Speedwell. He gave me an excellent offer but what sold me was how we was extremely open and honest and he didn't mind answering all the questions I had because I just like to know what the process will be. We agreed on a time and a day and the move began.Phase one:The day of the move Lee and his team consisting of Billy, Josh and Patrick arrived on time. Immediately they got to work. The one thing I liked about Lee and the movers is they were very honest and kept me and my fiance involved. They gave us suggestions and advice. They were very efficient. When they loaded the first room and secured it my fiance was amazed how little room they used for so many items. She was worried the truck wouldn't be big enough to carry all her stuff but when she saw that she smiled and I think it was then that she realized it was going to happen. The entire team worked extremely well together. Each member had their role and worked efficiently. They disassembled a lot of things and were able to occupy every nook and cranny within the truck. They arranged things in ways I never thought possible. These people have a vision and are very good at what they do. They finished well within the time frame Lee had suggested. All of the time I can't stress how much I appreciated them communicating with my fiance and I asking us questions that would benefit us. They never assumed anything. All in all they were able to fit everything from the house into the truck with room to spare.Phase two:Sure, they could pack everything in a truck, but could it withstand a 1500 mile drive? I told my fiance it's very possible some stuff breaks and to not be upset if it did. We drove the truck and because we're not professionals we may have took turns a little too fast, hit pot holes we couldn't avoid, broke too hard, you know, the things amateurs like me would do. In fact I didn't even want to check on the stuff during the drive. I feared I would open the back door and everything would fall out. Well, when we got to the new house and opened the door, nothing moved and if it did you couldn't even tell. They did a great job. I was beyond impressed. I was truly amazed. I was sure stuff would be all over the place but it wasn't, it safe and secure exactly where it was when we left.Phase three:Even though they loaded it, we still needed to be able to unload it. So if it was packed in such a way that made it hard to unload it would be more work. Well, no surprise it was easy to unload. Lee and his crew did an outstanding job. We hired movers to help us unload and they said this was one of the best loading jobs they'd seen. They were impressed how secure and organized everything was. This allowed the unloading crew to finish much faster than they anticipated. All in all Lee and his crew made a very stressful situation so much easier to bear. My fiance was feeling the stress more than me so she's extremely appreciative. The amount of professionalism, honesty, respect, integrity and work ethic each member displayed is truly admirable. It's so hard to find honest hard working people sometimes but I've at least found four more with Lee, Patrick, Billy and Josh. Thank you all.

Lee Paxson at Speedwell Transportation and his moving and packing crews did a great job. Price was reasonable as well compaired to other quotes we got, we even got a refund! Moving and packing crews were professional and on time at both sites making this a great move. I would highly recommend them.

We accepted bids for our move and saved 50% over other bidders by accepting the bid from Speedwell Transportation, an agent for National Van Lines Lee Paxton, Manager, was very responsive to our request and explaining all available options for our move. He coordinated every aspect of our move. He offered, and we accepted, free used boxes, packing paper, and tape for items we were packing ourselves. His crew of packers packed the items we could not pack expeditiously. The van driver arrived early at both our departure location on moving day and at our new home. The loading/unloading crew was prompt and on time at both locations delivering our items with care. I could go on and on. All of these individuals love their jobs, care about their customers and their belongings. After several successful moves during my husband's military service career, this was the absolute best. Thank you , Lee Paxson. Great job!

The first time in our life we needed a moving company to help us move from California to Florida. We searched for months for a moving company we would feel comfortable. We needed to not only move out of our storage in California, we were looking for a company that can hold all our belonging about 200 boxes until we were ready to receive them in Florida. We finally found a company called “speedwellmovers” in Lancaster, CA. The entire transaction was handled by an amazing man by the name of Lee Paxson. Lee and his team moved us out of our storage, moved us in to their storage facility in Lancaster, ca. Several months later when we purchased a home, we were ready for our boxes. Lee’s company is associated with National Van Lines. I got a call from Lee saying Matthew Murphy has picked up all our boxes in a BIG 18-Wheeler, we will get a call from Matthew. WOW! To our surprise, Matthew called to say he would be at our house by 7am on a certain day, Matthew was there on time. We couldn’t believe our eyes, Matthew by himself unloaded everything and some boxes upstairs, some went to the garage, some in bedrooms. Matthew also made sure the tracking sheet was called out so we know what we gave to Lee is delivered to us in Florida. This is like a dream, working with speedwellmovers (Lee Paxson) and National Van Lines (Matthew Murphy).

Had to move out July 31st ( yes I know this review is long over due ) and they were there for us, made us feel as if we were family, They are extremely reliable, Lee gave us an amazing estimate and was there for me whenever I needed him , calls, texts, email. When It came down to move day the guys got there at 8 am like they said they would and took very good care of our stuff while loading up (only took a couple hours for our 3 bedroom 2 bath 1 story ) and got everything in our new home without a single scratch!! Highly reccomend them, they are a very honest hardworking company and I would use them again in a heartbeat if I had to move again. Thank you speedwell !

When I booked my move with this wonderful company, I was already dealing with another company that was not so wonderful. That being said be very careful of the movers you pick. That being said you can't go wrong with Speedwell transportation movers. Right from the start up to and including their office staff, complete experts at what they do. A cut above the rest. The old adage you get what you pay for is 100% right. I placed a phone call to Speedwell, the very very very nice office staff girl, allow me to tell her my horror story about the past movers, bless her heart.... This help me to calm down, sweet of her. So again she immediately put me at ease booked me appointment with Lee... Lee came over the very next day and gave me a quote which was very very reasonable for all the things that I asked him and his crew to do for me. Which included not only moving a lot of items, but also taking apart and putting my sleep number bed back together and the modular base that it sits on. Not an easy task. Lee was absolutely wonderful walk through my house, I showed him everything didn't take but maybe a half an hour, at best, and he got a quote back to me the very same day. Needless to say I definitely responded and booked my move. No drama no problem no nothing. The contract was waiting for me at their office all I had to do was go in and sign it. Easy breezy. Got to meet the very nice office staff that I spoke to. Received my copy and away I went. The day before the move Lee called me on the phone just to confirm and make sure that I was good and if I needed anything else. Now that's customer service, as I said a cut above all the rest. The day of my move the two very very very nice gentleman showed up not only on time but about 10 minutes early. I like that people you can count on, that actually show up on time. They immediately went to work taking special care with everything that I pointed out to them. They move quickly, safely, and expertly. Not only that but after moving all my furniture and all my boxes and crates, there was not one mark left on any wall, My house did not have one tiny bit of damage at all, not even a scratch. And neither did my furniture or any of the items I had moved nothing broken everything perfect. When we arrived at my apartment. I got the same courtesy they moved quickly, safely and expertly again not leaving any marks at no scratches or nothing on the walls. These two guys worked hard very hard. I had an issue with my pedestal for my Sleep number bed apparently sleep number did not send me all of the parts. These two gentlemen did everything they could in their power to make me happy, Including waiting for me to make a phone call to sleep number to find out what was going on. After we found out that their was a problem, completely the fault of sleep number bed. They put my bed on the floor and helped me put it back together. That's really all we could do. We finish the move in record time and these guys really work their very hard. As a matter of fact the lead gentleman told me that when I got the rest of the parts that he'd be more than happy to come back and put it together for me just give Lee a call and I will come right out. They went one step further Lee called me the next day to make sure everything went well and I was happy and also told me when I get the rest of the parts from sleep number to give him a call he'll sell send the gentlemen back and to put it together for me. Now that's service. And that's exactly what you get with Speedwell moving, you get Customer service, whom are expert at what they do. Completely professional, respectful, honest, and hard workers, you can't ask for anything more. I highly recommend you at least get a quote and talk to Lee. You won't be sorry. Again there are a lot of places that say how good they are but talk is cheap! You have to prove what you can do, and who you are and these people definitely do that.. Again a cut above. You Will be very happy you did. Mov

This was the first time that we have used movers. It seems our age and health have caught up with us. The movers were hard workers. We had packed a great deal of items but there was still a lot to do. Moving a very large antique desk was no problem for them. The downside? In bringing in the fridge two holes were torn in the linoleum. It didn't seem fair that they didn't bring food so we bought them lunch, Finally, a recommendation that we will follow next time: number the boxes. It took me two weeks to discover that my silverware, Nook,And most of our grandchildren pictures weren't here. Had I numbered the boxes I would have known if anything was missing immediately.
