We want to thank one of our community partners, Two Men and a Truck, for their continued support and generosity.  They kindly donate one free move a month to current clients who need to move out of their homes to a new location.  As you can imagine, this can be a very emotional experience, and each and every single mover has demonstrated kindness and a positive attitude to the client.   Couple that with their careful handling of items and their efficiency, Two Men and a Truck truly are movers who care.
