We use Piepho for our move from SE Minnesota to central Iowa. They were so efficient, so careful, so kind and easy going even when we weren’t as prepared as we should have been. They came a day early to do our final packing for us that we didn’t get done. The delivery and unpacking went so smoothly. We own a lot of stuff and they had to make a second trip. They got that worked into their schedule too. Everything was on time and they took the time to ask where to put certain boxes and furniture, I just sat out by the truck and directed them when needed. And they bought me lunch when they took a quick break to get some fast food burgers!

Piepho moved us 3 times in 4 years. They were excellent each time. They were fast, reliable, efficient, and very careful with our belongings. They were also very responsive, checking in with us at every point to make sure our needs were met. The person who gave us estimates on the cost of our moves was thorough and accurate. These were not small moves. Two living rooms, 3 bedrooms, a dining room, and many belongings accumulated over almost 50 years. I am an old picky person so trust me - Piepho is the best.

I cannot recommend this moving company enough! I had gotten scammed by a moving company and didn’t realize it until 5 days before the truck was going to arrive, I called Piepho and that afternoon they came to assess what size truck I would need. They were honest, prompt, reliable, very fair on pricing, and saved me from a horrible situation. They are the absolute best! 10 stars!!!

I moved out of state and I hired Piepho Moving and Storage. I had done some of the packing, but left the majority to Piepho. They did a wonderful job with packing and with moving the furniture in to the new place and helping with unpacking. They are worth every one of the five stars that I gave them. They did a terrific job. Also I was treated like a friend not a customer. I definitely will use Piepho when ever I move again.

I have used Piepho Moving on three different occasions in the last 9 years. They are wonderful to work with. I have had them pack all my goods, as well, as move goods that I have pack myself (aside from large items and furniture) and I have pleasantly pleased every time. All sets of movers/packers have been on time and were very hard workers. They will make sure your goods are taken care of, packed well, and arrive in the same state the left the last location.
Additionally, the staff that I worked with to get quotes and dates were fabulous as well.
I highly recommend them for any local, senior or interstate move.

Piepho Moving helped me move from Minnesota to Florida. They were absolutely wonderful from beginning to end! I was nervous, I have never moved all my stuff before, but each interaction with employees helped keep me at ease. Fran, gave me my quote, which was spot on! He answered all my questions and emails in a timely manner and was very kind. Matt and Brad helped load my furniture, they walked me through the process, what they were labeling, and what would happen once they took it to the warehouse. They were professional, personable, and handled all my items with care. Lynn sent me my invoice and was wonderful, she emailed me an update each time my furniture went to a new location, told me when it would get delivered, and even called to check in while the local Florida company for Allied was unloading my items to my new apartment. Everything got here in one piece, was well packaged, and there were no damaged items. These people are wonderful, don't hesitate to choose them!

We just moved across the country from Colorado Springs to Virginia and our driver, Chris Roth, was phenomenal. He communicated throughout the entire process and was easy to contact and very responsive to any questions we had. He was responsible for hiring the local moving crews at both start and destination and they were awesome as well. One of the crew leaders even pulled me aside to tell me I was so lucky and got the best driver there is. You know it speaks volumes about the quality of someone's service and professionalism when someone who works in the industry goes out of their way to tell you that.

All interactions with Piepho employees with my interstate move were stellar, from my first phone call and initial in-home visit through the successful delivery to my new place. I've made many interstate moves. This was the easiest and most stressless. They took good care of my stuff and kept me fully informed throughout the process. Piepho could not have done better for me!

We did a recent home move with Piepho Moving & Storage. We have never had a move go smoother. From Fran in sales and Angie in customer service, to the actual movers, Logan, Alan, Derek and Eric, service was excellent. The entire move went well. Everyone made us feel cared for and our property valued. The move itself took three hours less than expected. Nothing was lost or broken. It was the first time that movers correctly put together an antique rolltop desk. A big shout out to Eric for getting the desk together. They all worked hard and took the time to make sure everything was placed exactly as we wanted it. We couldn’t be happier and would highly recommend them.

We had our complete household picked up and stored by Piepho in Onalaska, WI for the past 2 years. The people there have been amazing. Just bought a house in Texas and they just delivered it.The driver, Anthony, got everything here safely. Very professional and friendly. We highly recommend him and Piepho Moving Company!

Last year, Piepho helped my family with an out-of-state move. I had researched a few moving companies and Piepho was the most responsive. So, I hired them. I was very nervous about this move. From the beginning of my interaction with Piepho, they kept me completely informed. The guys who moved our property were friendly, courteous and prompt. As we traveled, Piepho gave me updates on our property location and ETA. In fact, they were able to move our property into our new home ahead of schedule. Some items were received broken and some smaller items were delivered later. These were mild annoyances. All in all, Piepho did a good job for our big move.
