Great company for your move!

While searching for a mover on HomeStars, I came across Rent-A-Son, which had many positive reviews. I decided to go with them and glad I did. They were professional and their service was top notch from start to finish. The crew was punctual, friendly and took great care not to damage anything. They took less time than their estimate and I only paid for the time spent. I highly recommend them. I hear horror stories about movers but if you do your research and hire a mover like Rent-A-Son, you will avoid a bad move.

Fast, efficient and Professional

A friend recommended Rent-a-Son so I booked them for a small move within my apartment building. Oriki and Brock were great: polite, organized and professional. Everything was moved quickly and carefully. I would definitely book them again

Moving Services

Rent-a-son did a great job from start to finish. John in the office handled my estimate and moving details, Oriki, Leon, and Aaron showed a lot of effort and care in moving our items. They didn't waste any time throughout the move. I've had movers in the past waste time as members of the team stood around, but the moving team from Rent-a-son (lead by Oriki) handled everything perfectly and my moving cost was actually less than the estimate.

Great Townhouse Move

We just had a great experience with Oriki, Leon and Theodore moving the contents of our house into a shipping container heading for Calgary. We had packed up most of the house but they were great in taking care of anything we missed, especially in protecting fragile and antique items. They were friendly, professional and very efficient. We would absolutely use Rent-a-Son in the future, especially if we knew we'd be getting these three great guys.

Moved from Toronto to Port Hope

The crew of four men (Oriki, Leon, Marcus and Theodore) were fast and efficient, and really went above and beyond to get the job done! They looked after every detail, including packing up any remaining items (we had packed up ourselves), disassembling and reassembling furniture, and protecting fragile items. We were a bit overwhelmed with moving out of our house of 22 years and these guys took so much of the stress away. They were so friendly and helpful. I would absolutely recommend Rent-a-Son!

Small Condo Move

This is my first experience with Rent-a-Son and I couldn't be happier. Aslan and Sergei were friendly, professional, fast, careful, and simply exceeded my expectations in every way. Rob in the office was fantastic to work with as well. I highly recommend Rent-a-Son and will be using them again.

Brains and Brawn!

Brock and Wealth were prompt, polite, careful and diligent workers. However, I was most impressed by their ability to problem solve when things, through no fault of their own, didn't go exactly as planned. They didn't take a break (not event for water) and finished the job in time for me to take care of an emergency vet situation that happened shortly after they left.
They were consistently a pleasure to work with.
Much appreciation,
Stef
