Las Vegas North, Nev.

The Las Vegas North location of TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® got a great review that started from the very first introduction.

We used Two Men and a Truck as loaders for our move and I was very satisfied. From the very start Kristen, in the office, set the right tone. She was helpful and even had a few suggestions to make things easier. We looked at three moving companies and the price was very comparable. It was Kristen's great attitude that made the decision for us. The movers were quick and packed the truck much better than we could have. We were concerned it would not all fit and they made it work with room to spare. We arrived at our destination with everything in great shape. It took us 9 hours to unpack what it took them 4.5 hours to pack. They arrived on time. They informed me when it looked like it would take a little longer. They were patient with the things that were not ready. All in all a wonderful experience and I am really glad we chose two men and a truck Vegas for our move.

Austin South, Texas

The Austin South location of TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® received a great review for a recent move they did.

Jarrett, Israel and Kenneth of Two Men and a Truck moved my family and I cannot imagine them doing a better job.  They wrapped my furniture, placed padding on my door frame, respected my hardwood floors, packed the truck in order of what rooms were to be unloaded first and last.  They were also friendly in spite my requests to carry large, unwieldy flower pots and my huge work bench.  Highly recommended.

Reply cards across the country

The Wheaton, Ill., and Bay City/Midland/Saginaw, Mich., locations of TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® received thank you notes for all their help and support.

I just wanted to say that I'm so appreciative of all that Paul Brown, in Elmhurst, IL, has done to help me out. Unfortunately, I had some problems with my move, and he has gone way above and beyond to make sure I was a happy customer. Im sure he has a full plate of his own, but the time he took to work with me is much appreciated. Thanks so much to Paul!

Kansas City, Kan.

The Kansas City, Kan. location of TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® was mentioned in an e-mail from the Children's Mercy Hospital for their donated services during The Art of Giving program.

 At the Kiewit Holiday Party, we will be collecting gifts for Children’s Mercy Hospital - The Art of Giving program. Please bring an unwrapped, new toy in its original packaging to the Holiday Party. Stuffed animals should have their original tags. Attached you’ll find a list of current needs this holiday season. Donation boxes will be available on either side of the Exhibit Hall entrance. Two Men and a Truck have donated their services to pick up the toys and deliver them to Children’s Mercy Hospital.

Your donation will ensure each child in the hospital on Christmas day receives a gift delivered by Santa. Any extra gifts will be kept and used to fill treasure boxes, reward patients after the completion of a special procedure, to help celebrate birthdays, or to supply activity areas. Here is some more information about how your gifts will be used.

Fill the treasure boxes of Children’s Mercy
When children come to a clinic appointment, urgent care, or the emergency room, they are often hurting, stressed, and scared. Our treasure boxes are one way we can tell children that we know what they are going through isn’t easy. Treasure box items include Hot Wheels cars, small stuffed animals, and other small toys/trinkets.

Give patients positive coping tools
When undergoing medical procedures, children can help themselves relax and cope positively by blowing bubbles or pinwheels, looking at picture books, listening to a calming music CD, or playing with sound and light toys. We strive to make these items available to any patient in need, which means we need many coping tools!

Let patients express and create
Patients of appropriate ages are offered a daily art activity or game. Crayons, coloring books, markers, glue, construction paper, paint, and stickers are just some of the supplies patients use every day at Children’s Mercy. We provide as many art supplies as possible so patients can express themselves, strengthen their fine motor skills, and just be “kids”.

Your gifts go a long way toward brightening a child’s hospital stay.

Thank you for your continued generosity!

Scottsdale, Ariz.

The Scottsdale location of TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® received a thank you letter from Scottsdale Healthcare Foundation for their support of the Playing for T.I.M.E. event.

Dear Dave:

The 16th anniversary of Playing for T.I.M.E. has almost concluded and it is a wonderful success. The final tabulations are nearly complete and we are happy to announce net proceeds of over $100,000. This helps us complete our five-year, $500,000 pledge to the Debi Bisgrove Caner Care Coordinator Endowment...an achievement that would not be possible without the generous support of friends like you!

Thank you so much for your continued, in-kind support and making this portion of our Playing for T.I.M.E. extravaganza so successful!

The Debi Bisgrove Cancer Center Coordinator Endowment supports oncology-trained nurses who serve as a single point of contact to help patients navigate the complex and often frightening diagnosis of cancer. The Cancer Care Coordinator also serves as an advocate for patients by communicating directly with the patient's physician to ensure they receive necessary care, and that tests and services are provided in a timely, cost-effective manner.

Again, we sincerely appreciate your continued support of Playing for T.I.M.E. and Scottsdale Healthcare. Together we give so we have "Time to Share."

Warm Regards,

Deborah Rittenhouse
Project Manager, Special Events

Louisville Central, Ky.

The Louisville Central location of TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® recently received a thank you from a pleased customer who had a large move that required two trucks and six men.

Tammie,

I can't tell you how pleased we were with your team!! You and Roberta were a pleasure to work with and your suggestions of the number of guys and trucks, all the logistics were spot on. The guys had a great can-do attitude, hustled all day (and there were a LOT of steps) and really respected our property. I can't remember the last time a company exceeded my expectations, but Two Men & a Truck certainly did.

Best,

Jennifer

Evansville, Ind.

The Evansville franchise of TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® received a thank you letter from the Posey County Historical Society for their generous move of historical artifacts.

Dear Mr. Raibley:

On behalf of the Posey County Historical Society, I want to express our appreciation for your consideration of the Society when your company recently moved our collection of historical artifacts. As a not-for-profit organization, our funds are limited, so it was such wonderful encouragement when you not only gave us a special rate, but also waived the overage of the estimate.

For such a long time, our Directors have explored all possibilities in attempting to have our books, documents and photographs in a safe and protected environment. Your assistance in the recent move helped us realize that goal.

Thank you again for the kindness extended to the Posey County Historical Society.

Sincerely,

Becky Higgins, President
Jane Saltzman, Collection Chair
Judy Whitten, Secretary

A generous donation

The TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® home office received a thank you e-mail from Aaron Villaverde, a Marine serving a six-month tour in Afghanistan, for their thoughtful care packages.

Just wanted to thank the company. I recently received 13 generous care packages out here in Kabul, Afghanistan where I'm a Marine serving a six-month tour. The office that sent the care packages deserves the utmost gratitude and all the personnel I work with from 14 countries and all four branches of the U.S. Military are grateful for the time, money and efforts that your employees put into sending the packages. I don't have all the names but William Redd, Adam Golchuk and Brad Burban are the names I received on the business cards and I wish I had all the names of the employees so I could personally thank them for what they did. Their selfless act of kindness is appreciated more than we can show out here and makes our efforts out here worth it. Thanks again and please pass this message on to their bosses.

Athens, Ga.

The Athens franchise of  TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® received a great review for a recent business move.

We hired Two Men and a Truck to move our office. I discussed with the lady over the phone how much stuff we had; she was very nice and helpful. When the two movers showed up they were very helpful and broke down the invoice for us. They then realized it would be better if they had the help of two more guys (some of our office furniture is rather large and heavy). Within minutes, two more guys showed up to help with the move. Overall they were friendly and helpful, and I would recommend them to any of my friends.
