Moving is a stressful. It, to say the least, requires a great deal of planning and trust in the selected moving company. Arranging a move in a pandemic is an extra stress that no one could have anticipated.Steve Paparoudis was incredibly patient as I, not once, not twice, but three times (!) changed my move date. I had hoped this Covid virus might go away! I never felt a “this-is-how-it’s-done” pressure. I felt a partnership in navigating these uncharted waters of life in 2020.I had the crew pack my belongings with the extra challenge that some of the things were to go to storage and the rest went to my new home. Again, I felt respected in how I had organized my belongings and grateful to see their system of keeping details in order dove-tailed nicely with mine.On packing/moving day I found the crew felt like a team of old friends. They knew what they were doing and had done this together many times. I felt a confidence that this was going to go well. I have moved seventeen times (!) in my life and have experienced quite an assortment of mishaps (including unwrapping rotted garbage because the packer didn’t think to not include it in my shipment).I have unpacked my belongings and am pleased at how things have arrived in-tact. Quite remarkable. In fact, when I found a box carefully labelled “fragile" (and to be top-loaded only) was found under two rather heavy boxes, I kind of held my breath when I opened it. Inside an antique three-foot statue emerged unscathed. Mistakes will happen. This is a given. What is unusual is that It had been so well-wrapped that it did not get damaged.I recommend S&P Network’s Marathon Moving Solutions to be your solution to moving. Pick this local business and you won’t be disappointed.

Steve and his team did a wonderful job and communication was on point from start to finish. I was a bit nervous about some of my delicate furniture, but he confidently explained their process and everything came out great. While I received estimates from another company that was somewhat lower in cost, in the end I could not place a value on the care that was put into my items and having peace of mind during my move. Excellent teamwork and highly recommended

Steve and his team did a superb job during our move. They were professional, friendly and courteous. The movers took special care of our items being moved and the houses by protecting walls and floors. Steve performed exemplary working with us to prepare for our move. Steve was punctual, flexible in finalizing our list of items to be moved, and accurate in providing us a cost estimate for our move. I would highly recommend Steve and his team and plan to call them again for our next move.

Tyrell and Jordan arrived early and went to work immediately. They were friendly, professional and attentive to details. They completed the job quickly and carefully. We feel fortunate to have found Marathon Movers on Yelp and we will be happy to call on them again.

Moving with Steve and Marathon Moving Solutions – in the midst of the pandemic – could not have gone better. We had a two part move where we packed up a house we had sold in Mechanicsburg, PA, put the majority of our things in storage for two months, then moved down to northern Virginia. Both on the front side with packing up our Mechanicsburg house, as well as on the back side with moving into our Virginia house, Steve and his staff were prompt, efficient, and very easy to work with. Steve even met us at the storage facility a day before our Virginia move so we could add a few things to the load that we couldn’t move ourselves. Finally, my wife and I have used many moving companies (4 – 6), both good and bad. However, even the best ones never did one thing that Marathon Moving Solutions does – they put small numbered stickers on each of our items to make sure they don’t lose anything in storage or in transit. I’m not sure if they only do that for loads that are going into storage or for everyone, but it was an especially thoughtful touch that gave my wife and I peace of mind that none of our things would be lost during the move. Moreover, they were far cheaper than the next best mover in town. We can't recommend Marathon Moving Solutions any more highly!

Marathon packed and moved us from Harrisburg to Carlisle. Their packers were great as were the movers. First class service. The moving truck was beautiful, super clean! Everything was moved on time, efficiently and cared for like it was their own belongings.

Steve was fantastic to work with. He kept me updated at all steps along the way. He was responsive to questions and was professional at all times. During the day of the move he made sure to keep my belongings safe while also ensuring not to damage the house while moving in and out. His quote on the move was lower than any others I spoke with. Highly recommend using this company

I used S&P Network's Marathon Moving Solutions for a recent long distance move in the middle of the COVID19 pandemic. A stressful situation became pure relaxation with the help of S&P Network! The crew was extremely professional and took great care and pride in their work. My furniture was not damaged at all, and the crew made maneuvering through a high rise apartment building easy! All my pieces were wrapped and handled with care. I could just sit back, relax, and enjoy the day. Furthermore, the crew wore masks, which I found very professional and put me at ease. The price was just right, and I appreciated the inventory of my belongings as well as the professional contract/estimate to sign. The company was also responsive within minutes of my inquiry to help me move, and continued to be responsive and on time up until the very end. Thank you S&P! I would highly recommend this business for any move, especially if you are in the Central PA/Harrisburg area!

Well, if you're looking for top notch service and value, look no further. I have moved 18 times in my life and seen the good, the bad, and the ugly in moving companies. I can say without a doubt Marathon is among the very best...if not THE best. The Owner, Steve, is as knowledgeable, professional and responsive as possible. He is really a cut way above the industry standard. His price quote for a long distance move was the best I received. He also made the move from PA to Texas happen on short notice.As for the packers/drivers...My property was all in a storage facility, formerly moved there from South Carolina by a sub-standard mover (All My Sons) who did more damage than they did anything else. In taking inventory, Steve pointed out the damage due to improper, or in some cases no protective wrapping, and Tyrell did his best to get things properly secured and protected. It was obvious Tyrell cared about the quality of his work. Jordan loaded the truck expertly and he and Scott drove to TX. Upon arrival, they unloaded quickly, efficiently and with care. I'm a lawyer and a perfectionist. So when I tell you that I recommend this company without hesitation its the highest possible praise.

Steve and his team were great from start to finish. We did a complete pack and move to South Carolina and can't imagine having done it any other way. They were on time, worked hard and took care of our stuff as best they could the entire trip. Every person that came in our home(s) were nice, courteous and professional. Steve was responsive, helpful and informative from the moment we reached out through a month after we moved in. He even scheduled a handyman to come take care of a few moving dents from big heavy stuff coming upstairs at our new home, and paid for that as well. I'd give 6 stars if I could and will recommend to anyone we can convince to move south with us!

Steve came to the house and looked at everything I wanted moved, then gave me his estimate. Far superior then someone just doing it over the phone. On the day of the move, they texted me with their ETA and arrived on time. Tyrell and Jordan (and Steve for the first hour) were thorough, professional, had great attention to detail and were efficient. They foresaw all possible situations and were able to keep my items safe and secure. They appreciated that even though my items didn't have great financial value, they were priceless to our family with memories. They were fabulous! I highly recommend them! I plan to use them again when I need to move these same items from storage to their new home!

I thought these guys were to good to be true. They were on time and did everything they said they would do. What a pleasure to work with, they protected our home and our personal items. I had 3 other moving companies that gave me crazy quotes but nothing came close to service we received. Thank you for taking the stress out of this move.Tim Brown

I am disabled and knew that I couldn't do this move with just me and my husband. When I went searching for a mover after talking to Steve I knew he was the guy. The men on the team Tyrell Darvis mark and, Jordan we're all gentlemen and treated me like a queen that day. Even when we thought things were missing they did everything in their power to try to find it until we realized it was Wayfarers fault for not sending all the pieces. They laid out a red carpet to not get my brand new house dirty. I even recommended them to my friend. We really couldn't have did it without you guys! Thank you very much.

Steve and Tyrell just moved us from Lemoyne, PA to Biloxi, MS this past weekend! For us this was our 19th move (all other ones were scheduled and contracted out by the military). Compared to those past moves, this one was by far far the best one ever!! The professionalism from Steve and his crew was 5 Stars +! If you are looking for an amazing moving company, look no further!!!

Phenomenal moving company !They were so great, we paid much less than the estimate we were given. Covered everything very carefully with blankets and plastic wrap. Not one single thing was damaged, including walls, floors, and things in the house. Best group of guys you will ever meet! Efficient, very polite, personable, and worked very well together. Highly recommend!

The movers were efficient, careful, and made our move 100 times easier to our third floor apartment. Between moving multiple pieces of large furniture, taking apart and re-assembling our cabinets and bed frame, and transporting multiple televisions, Steve and the entire crew were polite, and happy to work with us. My partner and I will certainly be using them again for our next move. I would highly recommend them for the price and quality of work you will get in return. Thank you S&P!

Steve and his team were great! They had moved two bedrooms, a living room, kitchen, dining room, and what felt like a million boxes in a matter of 5 hours. They were courteous, polite and respectful. The did an amazing job and made my life and this move so much easier. The price was incredibly reasonable, and I would recommend this team to everyone I know. In fact, I hired them based on a recommendation, and I am so happy that I did!

From start to finish Steve and his team were absolutely amazing! During the quote process Steve carefully reviewed every detail of the process and answered all of my questions quickly! The day of the move I was quickly put at ease by the team’s kindness, professionalism, efficiency, and attention to detail. I’ve already recommended them to friends who are moving and would highly recommend them to anyone with moving needs! I honestly can’t say enough how happy I am with their work to make my move stress free!

From start to finish Steve and his crew were top notch. From our first meeting with Steve until they completed our move and walk through it was a seamless adventure. All of the men working with and for Steve are so super polite. Each one introduced their self to my husband and me upon arrival. Courteous, fun and hardworking all at the same time. I was so impressed by the care they took with each of my items. I have a lot of art work and it is wrapped and labeled perfectly. I can now hang them at my leisure once I have our everyday lives a bit more organized after the move. Steve's company was recommended by two of our neighbors who told us about them and they were please with S&P Newtwork's Marathon Moving Solutions too. A+ . gold star and 2 thumbs ups for S&P Newtowrk's Marathon Moving Solutions. Mary & Rob

We are glad we chose Marathon Moving Solutions to help us translocate from PA to Chicago. Steve and his crew arrived punctually and packed our furnitures very carefully and efficiently. What we are most satisfied with is when the loading was done, they directly set off to our new address without picking up somebody else's stuffs. When we arrived at our new home, all the unloading and assembly of furnitures was done already and we didn't even need to stay in the hotel for transition. We highly recommend S&PNetwork's Marathon Moving Solutions to the people who are planning to move, especially move to another state. They are really fast and reliable.

My move was handled by Marathon with the utmost professionalism. I first set a date for my move near the end of June. An unforeseen delay required a shift of the date to mid July. Marathon's flexibility and willingness to adjust to the change of move-in date was outstanding. When the adjusted date arrived, Marathon's arrival was prompt, and their transfer of my belongings from apartment to townhouse was efficient and thoroughly courteous and professional. Their crew really put in one-hundred and ten percent effort to get all my property into the new residence. Their work was outstanding and I am thoroughly satisfied with their excellent service.
