We were very happy with S&P movers and would recommend them to anyone. The guys were all very professional and respectful of our home and our belongings. They were all great people and made what should have been a very stressful day a breeze. Thanks S&P!

We all know moving home is a challenge. It means several weeks of taking account of personal admin, managing logistics, packing and unpacking possessions, surfing changing emotions, keeping an eye on finances, tending to children and pets, and making sure all the bases are covered.And towards the end of the journey, when properties had been closed upon, mortgages drawn down, and an mountain of boxes taped up, the one thing our family needed was trust and confidence in the moving company.For most of us, having a group of complete strangers enter our home and move our possessions can be an alarming prospect, but from the beginning, when Dawn came to our home to assess our needs, to the finish, when I handed payment to Steve at the end of a long day of moving possessions, the folks at Marathon Moving Solutions were absolutely phenomenal. I cannot recommend them highly enough.They were punctual and professional, industrious and hard-working, and very importantly, friendly and funny. They took exceptional care of our items, and of both the home we left and the one we moved to. And, what's more, they managed the disassembly and reassembly of some large and complex pieces of furniture with ease. Throughout the day, we were continually impressed by the crew's courtesy, their work rate and their sense of humor which never flagged.In times gone by, I've been happy enough to see the back of a removal crew--but not this time. As they took their leave at the end of a very long day, we said a fond farewell to a great bunch of fellas that had helped us realize a dream of new home, and what's more had done it with the best of competence, good humor and style.Thank you to Dawn, Steve, and the entire team. We are full of gratitude and will not forget you!

MMS is great!Twenty-five years ago, we did not have a good experience with professional movers - slow, careless, bad attitudes, broken items, so we moved ourselves (with the help of friends) for subsequent relocations. It was a scary plunge for us contacting Marathon for this move - probably the last and certainly the farthest "jaunt". WOW! MMS could make a fortune offering "Best Practices" trainings to other companies and their staff!!!From Dawn (responsive, professional, knowledgeable, detail-oriented) and the local helper staff at both ends to Dave, Josh, and Jordan (friendly, professional, careful, efficiently quick), Marathon demonstrated superior skills, strength, and knowledge every step of the way - as well as respect for us and our belongings. As I texted to Dawn on the morning after the move-in, the crew are true professionals at moving - taking inventory (beginning and end); deploying staff resources for wrapping/loading, etc; prepping paths, etc; unloading/placing - AND have outstanding customer service skills, providing a true customer-centric experience.Without question, Marathon's part in our move from PA to DE was *the* best part of the moving process. We appreciate you!

I highly recommend (and have already, to family and friends!) S&P Network Marathon Moving Solutions team for many reasons, but the priority for me is the integrous honor, respect and dignity shown to me, my home, belongings and each other from the start of the first contact with Dawn right through to the completed move by Steve, Jordan, Dave and Jordan!!!Having moved a number of times in my journey but never using a moving company, I did not know what details to consider as I searched for good options that met my needs.My choice in going with Steve and his team did not disappoint!Dawn spoke of the high standards that each of the team members bring to the company which peaked my interest immediately! She freely and easily educated me on important details and was available for questions as I needed answers for a safe and successful move as well as came to do an in person estimate of what the move would involve.A grateful comfort to me came when Steve reached out personally 2 days before the move to confirm date and time of arrival as well as answer my last minute questions! Jordan’s call on moving day to indicate eta was another aspect that was very helpful. Steve, Jordan, Dave and Josh amazed me by the measures they took to wrap and secured every piece of furniture before moving it out of my home, while protecting my floors, corners and walls!! They worked very hard and very well together to get the job done!Due to their efficiency and my post it note system with directions on where each piece should be placed, the estimated cost was decreased!Results…a very enjoyable, peaceful and no stress moving day with much gratefulness!!!!THANK YOU!!!!

I wish I could remember the names of everyone who helped me with a move from PA to VA, because they all were fantastic. From Dawn's detail-oriented planning (and helping affirm what size storage unit I needed) to Steve's communications, to the driver and movers (Jordan, Josh, Luis...). If they had questions as they packed up, they asked rather than assumed. It was raining cats and dogs in PA, but they were pleasant about it, and took good care of my belongings. Highly recommend!

We highly recommend this company and would use them again!!!! This great team worked well together, very efficient, super friendly and respectful (even in the pouring down rain). We had lots of boxes, heavy furniture with difficult maneuvers, and we never heard anyone complain!!! We were very impressed with how detailed they all were, especially with wrapping each piece of furniture…even the wooden chairs! Moving is always stressful, but thank you for making this transition easier!

This was my 2nd opportunity to work with S & P Network Marathon Moving. They initially moved me from Philadelphia to Harrisburg in 2020. They located a convenient climate controlled storage facility for the majority of my things. One year later they moved the things out of storage in addition to my house to my new location. It was a pleasure working with Steve (the owner), Dawn and Jordan both times. Josh and Dave were quality additions for the 2nd move. I most appreciated the care given to my things and my homes. I have and will continue to recommend them for moving and storage services.

Marathon's "A+" rating from the Better Business Bureau is well deserved. Dawn and Steve were very responsive to our questions, and the quote from PA to MD was very competitive. The moving crew, Dave and Jordan, was very professional: courteous, careful, and efficient.We have moved many times over the course of my business career and this was our best overall experience. Highly recommended!

S&P moved me approximately 300 miles in the Northeast region. In addition to moving services, I paid for assistance with packing and unpacking. The move was somewhat cumbersome and I want to commend the crew, especially Dave and Jordan, for their professional and competent services. They managed different teams on each end of the move and accomplished everything in a timely manner. No items appear to be damaged, and everything was packed and unpacked with care and in an organized way. Their attention to detail, and to incorporating my preferences, made a highly stressful event as manageable as possible.

I have not witnessed such hard work and professionalism in a long time. On the hotest day of the summer those men worked non-stop. Even when I suggested they take a break, the team kept working. All were extremely polite and very careful with our belongings. We did a thorough walk through of our old home prior to heading to the new house. Once they completed their work, all the empty boxes and trash was collected and taken away. I will call S&P everytime I need any kind of moving assistance.

Don, Lynn, Josh, and Eric were very professional and friendly. As moving is always stressful, I was pretty anxious about my particular situation, and everyone was so reassuring. To have these guys take time to help ease my anxiety and not just be all about the job was amazing. They showed up on time, were efficient and timely in getting everything on and off the truck. Nothing was damaged. The estimate was spot on, so there were no surprises. Dawn was very helpful and supportive during the estimate process, and even took time during her vacation to help me and book my last minute move. From beginning to end, my moving experience was smooth.

S&P Marathon movers did a FANTASTIC job with my mother’s move. Jordan, Dave and Isaac were polite, respectful and took their time moving all of her items. They moved the large items slowly, taking care not too damage any doorways or walls. I was very pleased watching the entire process.I strongly recommend S&P Marathon for any move you have planned!

S&P was a wonderful company to work with and I couldn't recommend them enough! As 60+ people, moving can be overwhelming and this company was on hand with pre-moving help and support as well as on the job professional and kind crew members! They handled our items with care and packed and moved everything with respect and safety! This is the company you want for your move!

This was my first time using a moving service and I could not be more pleased! From my initial setup with Steve to the crew at the end. Jordan, Dave, Angel & Louis were top notch. I was kept updated on the process and what to expect and the team went above and beyond my expectations! Thanks so much guys for a positive experience! I will definitely recommend your company and use your services again.

We used S&P network Marathon to move us locally about 20 minutes (approximately 8 miles). The crew we had was comprised of Jordan, Dave, Jose, Luis and Jose. They showed up on time at 8:30 AM and after a brief tour were loading up right away. The crew took care with every item moved and padded anything that might get bumped on the way. The experience at our new address worked just as smooth. Any items not clearly labeled we were consulted on for their placement. All furniture which was disassembled at the old address was placed and assembled in the location of our choice at our new house. The move took a total of 4 and a half hours and was very cost effective. We had no complaints either of the company or the crew and the care received was exceptional quality. We highly recommend this business.

Steve's team of movers was amazing from start to finish. Everyone was so responsive and did everything we asked of them without hesitation. They couldn't have been more polite either! They were able to get the job done very efficiently even in the pouring rain. They took every precaution to protect our belongings and home from the weather. Steve made sure to follow up after the move to make sure everything we needed was taken care. We will recommend S&P to anyone looking for movers!

From the moment I reached out until the moment the move ended Steve and I were in constant contact. I felt bad at times with how many questions I had. But he never seemed annoyed and was always professional. His crew was actually pleasant. We have moved a lot, you rarely come across a mover who is enjoying what they are doing. That was not the case with Steve and his team. We moved a 4 bedroom home from Philly to Lancaster. They arrived at 9:00 am, and I was eating dinner in my new house by 5:30. Crazy! Would 1000% recommend

Today Steve, Mike, Jesse and Jordan moved me out of my house and into the garage of my new house. The stress of my new house not being finished today was eased by these 4 guys who were willing to take more than originally planned and instead of unloading to a house unloaded into my garage. They set my stressed mind at ease and I am forever grateful for them! Highly recommend!!!!!!

The whole team was friendly, professional, efficient and quick. They were skilled in the handling of large sized furniture that can be tricky. They made sure to wrap certain furniture and put padding around tough angles and on railings to prevent any damage. They also did a great job in disassembling and reassembling furniture. I highly recommend them as movers and also for storage in between moves, which was very convenient.

I don't typically write reviews...good or bad...but I would be completely remiss in not doing so in this case. These folks were outstanding...from beginning to end. Communication throughout the process was what you hope for to reduce the stress of any move.The crew that did the move...again more than I expected. Every piece of furniture was wrapped, not one ding in the walls, these guys hustled. One typically thinks when quoted a price and an estimated number of hours that the job would get "milked"...not these guys...they finished early.The crew was also engaging and took pride in the job they were doing. It was hard just trying to stay up with them on what went where when they arrived at our new house.Many thanks to Steve, Dave, Jordan, Mike, Luis and Jose for a job well done. Thanks to Dawn as well for all her prep work.If you're looking for movers...this is the outfit...

S&P was outstanding to work with. Our movers - Angel, Lewis and Jordan - were early and just absolutely lovely. We moved locally, and everything was handled quickly and in a professional and safe manner. They made sure things were done safely due to the pandemic. They made sure our carpets and walls were protected, and they even rebuilt our bed!I wouldn't hesitate to recommend S&P to anyone looking for a mover in the Harrisburg area.

Jordan, Eric, and Dave were our movers and they did a fantastic job. Everything carefully covered and transported. They even rolled out this waterproof carpet thing so they didn’t track snow and mud all through the house! To be honest, they took better care of our stuff than we would have.When it was moved to the new location, they placed it how we wanted it and then even built the bed again!!Overall, I couldn’t be happier with their service. I recommend this to anyone who is moving. 🙂

We contacted S&P to help move my in-laws into their new home in Carlisle, PA. The moved from Maine and had their belongings put into storage in Mechanicsburg. S&P had the best estimate out of 4 other local movers, and their great communication and professionalism was reassuring. Dawn was great in setting everything up and Lynn, Dave, Jordan, and Eric were total pros! Careful and speedy! We will definitely use S&P again.
