I used Mako Movers On August 9th to move from Summerville South Carolina to Seabrook Island South Carolina. They were just great and I would recommend them to anyone who is about to move. Anything I ask them to do, which included extra packing when they came, was done efficiently and cheerfully. They worked so hard on such a very very hot day. Besides being so accommodating they were relatively inexpensive. I had gotten other estimates and they were the lowest and when all was done it cost me( excluding tips( very close to their estimate. Again, Mako Movers turned out to be an excellent choice.

The guys were great. Willing to do anything we asked to make the truck packed right and safely. Already unloaded the truck, nothing was broken, which is a testament to their packing safely

I am very thankful for Mako Movers. The owner was very kind. He even offered to come by for a pre-check since I thought I had much more stuff. The movers arrived on time and packed the truck quickly. I have a lot of photography and digital media equipment, the team used much care with my items I would definitely recommend this company.

We moved from Charleston to Savannah GA. It was HOT, our house was raised up so EVERYTHING had to come down AT LEAST one flight of stairs, and then everything had to be held for two days overnight. There were NO ISSUES. Mako Movers were, reliable, punctual, careful with all our belongings (NOT A SINGLE BROKEN GLASS) and so easy to work with. I can't say enough, I'm so glad I chose them, they were very reasonably priced and delivered 5 star service.

I used this company when I was moving a couple months ago. My back was in bad shape at the time so I really couldn’t do any work on my own. Mako Movers were extremely helpful and started getting to work right after I contacted them. They got all of my stuff packed up and ready to go faster than any other moving company I’ve seen. They work very efficiently and are good on prices. If I were to recommend any moving company in the area it would definitely be these guys.

Recently moved from Charleston, SC to the Annapolis, MD area. These folks were on time, worked hard, and considering I had a wood shop to move, there was not one item damaged. Herb stayed in touch during the route, and did a great job. I would definately hire them again if the need were to arise!

I’d Highly recommend Mako Movers. The movers were respectful and never complained when working very hard and long days. They treated all of my furniture and items carefully (wrapped items with blankets etc.) and put everything where I needed it. I seriously could not have done this move without them and I’m very appreciative.
