Cedar Rapids – Nick W.

“Moved a lot of furniture (plenty of it being heavy) in a timely manner. Very friendly movers, polite, and cautious with everything. Not a single mark on walls or furniture. All of that and they are priced well. Highly recommend.”

Nick W.

I’m so glad I had them help us move!

“They were really professional, really nice, on time and I’m so glad I had them help us move!”

My international move was made infinitely simpler with MM Worldwide

My international move from New York to Scotland was made infinitely simpler with MM Worldwide, A division of MiniMoves. Each step of the way, my move manager, Jackie, kept me informed and aware. Any time I had a question, she had an answer. She walked me through each detail and maintained a steady stream of communication. From upstate New York, where my mover, Bruna, was on time, friendly, and efficient, to Lynn, in Scotland, who coordinated all the details, I was never alone on this journey. This transcontinental move was hectic in many ways but MM Worldwide was never a concern thanks to the consistent communication and ability to walk me through each step. I will shout their praises from the rooftops and will certainly work with them again for any moves in the future.

Great California to New Zealand Move

The volume of items we wanted to move was too small for the traditional movers we approached, but one of them recommended MiniMoves and MM Worldwide. They were great – kept us informed, coordinated with international movers, their packers arrived on time and were careful. Would use them again for a similar move.

MiniMoves did a great job moving family bedroom furniture

MiniMoves did a great job moving family bedroom furniture from Kansas City to Florida. They were personable, cared about the work they were doing, and they ran an efficient operation. When the furniture is special and it isn’t a large load, this is the way to go!

Colleen Lunceford

Everything about my experience … was excellent

“Everything about my experience with MiniMoves was excellent. The customer service was outstanding in scheduling the move. The crew that handled the move was professional and fastidiously careful with our “stuff”. Highly recommended!!!”

Jeffrey Jones

Courteous staff

Courteous staff. They were careful about the items being moved and had smart calls of where things should be while I had to leave for a moment. The office sent an extra person to expedite the move so they can go to the next job on time. No extra cost for the third person.

Cedar Rapids – Susan C.

“Awesome team. Worked their tails off in the heat and humidity. Very reasonable. I would for sure recommend this company to any of my friends.”

Susan C.

We would highly recommend them!

We did a partial move of furniture from CT to FL and used this company. Within a day of signing up, I received a call from a local mover that they utilize and we set up a date for pickup. A week before the move, we finalized what we were moving with our contact a Mini Moves. The day before the move, the local movers called to verify everything. On the day of the move, they were on time and took EXTREME care to wrap all our furniture. We’ve had three major moves and we have never had this kind of care. The shipment arrived two weeks after pickup – right on the schedule of  “within three weeks.” Those movers came on the day promised and on time. Not only that, they put all of our furniture in the rooms we selected and even moved a few boxes that they originally placed. We would highly recommend them!

Sharon Reed

I googled local movers based solely on the reviews

MiniMoves came highly recommended.  I spoke to Steve who explained the process, Lue guided me thru the Website and Francisco answered any questions we had regarding the move.  He also contacted us the day to remind us.  Our Movers were Angel and Jeff! We were extremely satisfied with their work; professional, fast, strong and personable. We knew they would wrap the breakable furniture however surprised they dismantled bed/head board and TVs.  I highly recommend MiniMoves.  Thank you MiniMoves Staff for accommodating us on such short notice and making this move a smooth transition!  Shout out to our movers, Angel and Jeff ! 👍🏼👏🏼

What an excellent representation of the moving industry.

“I used MiniMoves to service my cross country move for a job relocation. In my field we are trained to deliver exceptional service to our clients and guests. In turn, we have high standards when it comes down to receive service. With MiniMoves my standards and expectations were met and exceeded. My representative took such excellent care of me. All of my questions were answered and the follow up was exceptional. MiniMoves is first class! What an excellent representation of the moving industry. If I am ever in need of moving services. MiniMoves will be the first one that I think about calling.”

~Pamela F.

We would highly recommend MM Worldwide

We used MM Worldwide, a division of MiniMoves, after our original international removal company went bust highlighting the perils of moving, Jackie Dennis stepped in and was able to quickly arrange our international removal and quoted a competitive price. We were very pleased with the level of support information, guidance, and promptness of the various teams used in the process. Jackie and the team she worked with, showed a level of knowledge, experience, and reassurance necessary in this time of personal stress. We would highly recommend MM Worldwide.

Courteous and efficient packers

“Courteous and efficient packers; worked quickly and professionally; items arrived well within stated timeframe in good condition and were unpacked and set up at the other end efficiently and carefully.”

Julie B.

The local team who delivered the items were respectful, courteous, and efficient.

All communication throughout the entire moving process with MiniMoves went effortlessly. What I was promised happened. The pick-up of items went without any problems, and the movers were respectful and efficient. The delivery date was very important; it happened on the date promised–no delays, no problems. The local team who delivered the items were respectful, courteous, and efficient. They protected the floors, took their shoes off to walk on carpet areas, and disposed of packaging. They even thanked us. I can honestly say having moved several times, this has been the best moving experience.

Cedar Rapids – Martha T.

“The move was within town although originally they had agreed to make the move across country when that was the original situation. They were sensitive and responsive to my mother’s and our needs, and the move was handled quickly and well. We did the packing so they handled heavy boxes and furniture. Furniture pieces were very important to my mother, family pieces, and everything was moved and arrived without a problem. Very happy with their work and would recommend them.”

Martha T.

We moved from Illinois to Indiana and they took so much stress off our hands.

I am beyond impressed!! MiniMoves, specifically Chava and his team, has been absolutely AMAZING!! We moved from Illinois to Indiana and they took so much stress off our hands. They came in and packed up almost everything for us. And when I say packed, I really do mean packed. I didn’t have to do much of anything. They covered and wrapped everything too so that nothing would be damaged at all during the moving process. The crew was very polite and they worked quickly and efficiently. I will 100% do service with them again!! Whether you’re moving down the street or across the country, I highly recommend this company for your moves!!

Cedar Rapids – Karie S.

“I used MiniMoves partner, Porter Moving Company this past weekend, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the service I received. They took very good care of my belongings, and the guys were super nice. Highly recommend!!!”

Karie S.

They arrived when they said they were going to and left the property clean when they were dropping off all the movers graded with a hello and introduced themselves asked where we wanted the furniture cleaned up took away all the wrapping materials definitely would recommend this company for any moving local or long-distance five star all the way.
