“I’m super excited we hired His Workmanship for our move today. All four college movers showed up on time and got right to lifting our heavy items. What caught my attention most was the Christian mission of the company. As a believer myself I felt at peace scheduling movers who I knew I could definitely trust. I have already recommended His Workmanship and will continue to do so.” – Lori

I have used this service three times now and been very pleased each time. It's easy to set up, reliable, and responsive. The guys who show up to do the work are the same way. They listen to what you say and do a great, thorough job. They may be a little on the pricey side, but with the market the way it is today, they're well worth it!
Came to my yard removed all my leaves worth every penny! When I forgot to leave the leaf bags on the deck, they went out and bought some and still finished the job in the same amount of time!
The crew showed up on time and got to work right away. They did everything we wanted and were very thorough. We are very pleased with their work and will be bringing them back in the Spring to do our winter fall leaves.
I've had several projects completed by His Workmanship. The crews are on time, work hard, and do a great job. I highly recommend them.
Pay by the hour, hard workers, clear prices
These young people were able to plant the bed of irises in the dark! This time of year the 3 hours after 4pm are very demanding!
We used the services of His Workmanship twice in the last month. Two different projects that we did not want to handle by ourselves. The young men are courteous and very hard working. I recommend His Workmanship wholeheartedly!
We had a great experience with His Workmanship! Brandon and Nate were professional and worked hard. We are very pleased. Highly recommend!
On time and very professional. The young men got the job done. I needed a lot of leaves raked and bagged and that is exactly what they did. They guys could not have done a better job. Am very pleased. I would certainly use His Workmanship again.
(Attached photos include one “before” photo and three “after” photos)His Worksmanship was a huge relief for us.We live in the Greater Lansing area, and we recruited a 4-person, 8 hour team from Grand Rapids strictly for weeding and gutting several areas on our property that had been overtaken with overgrowth and debris. Given the great price, we kept expectations low and were just glad to be able to budget for this.Pisith and his team quickly went above and beyond all possible expectations, gutting weeds down to the root, moving debris out of affected beds, and offering to dig out heavy, rotted wood posts and edging that were no longer needed.At the end of the day, because the crew finished slightly early, I requested a few extra projects (picking up and moving tree limbs that had fallen, removing small plastic ponds and filling the holes afterwards, etc.), and the team enthusiastically agreed and efficiently got each task done. No project was left unfinished.Since this house is a family house, and the house is currently in a transition into our generation, this project meant so much to us. We now have a fresh start with our home, and we’ll be able to truly make it “home.” We are so thankful for a spectacular job done by His Worksmanship. THANK YOU!
The guys were good workers and well mannered. Price was fair.
Always perfect work!! Great guys, on time & hard workers! Will hire a lot more, when projects come up!
Great communication, and even better work! This team knocked out all of our needs faster than expected. Will definitely look to hire for future projects.
So helpful with garden tasks I couldn’t get to
Really fine young men. Listened carefully, executed beautifully, respectful of my property and myself. Highly recommend!
They worked hard and met our expectations. We will hire them again in the future
Very nice, respectful and efficient guys!!
Used His Workmanship for the first time to trim a dozen large shrubs that were very overgrown, plus some weeding and leaf pickup. Great communication setting up the appointment. The crew arrived on time, worked quickly and efficiently, and clarified my preferences throughout. Will use them again.
This company makes moving so much less stressful and the cost is extremely reasonable. With their help all the anxiety about the move was basically gone. Also I like the Christian values Everyone I talked to and worked with were full of kindness and patience and hard working.
Great guys, hard working and well worth it!

Frequently Asked Questions

Most furniture movers charge between $80 – $120 per hour for 2 movers. The length of time depends on variables such as: the amount of furniture, the size of your furniture, and how many stairs your items need to go up or down. If you need 5-10 pieces of large furniture rearranged, then it’ll probably only take 1 hour for 2 movers so it would cost around $100. If you need 10-20 heavy items lifted and relocated, then you’ll be looking at 2 hours for 2 movers which will cost between $160 – $240.
You will need to move all your furniture out of each room and into a temporary spot in the house so the old carpet can be removed. Once the new carpet has been installed, furniture movers will need to move all these heavy items back to their original spot. Heavy items usually include desks, dressers, beds, hutches, couches, recliners, armoires, and bookshelves.
You should first identify a focal point in the room. This is the first place your eyes go when they enter that space. Your game plan for arranging furniture should be organized around this point. Once you’ve located the focal point, then you can strategize about where all the furniture should go.

You should leave at least 1 inch of space between the wall and your furniture. This will lessen the risk of damages. It’s important to also remember that walkways should be at least 2 feet. This will allow a comfortable gait for the average person. Anything less than that, the walkway will be too cramped for travel.

If you are physically strong enough and you have a friend who can help, then why not save some money and get a workout by doing it yourselves. Be sure to lift with your legs; not with your back. For armoires and hutches, lean them over at a 90 degree angle before you lift so you can see better where you’re going. For items with a flat surface, like an office desk, you can flip it over and push it along the carpet. Want further insight about lifting heavy furniture?
Furniture lifting straps use leverage to allow you to lift more than normal. Moving straps are attached to your shoulders (or forearms) as well as underneath the heavy item so it distributes the weight evenly. They lower the center of gravity for the heavy item being lifted which lessens the need to bend over, thus helping out your back and promoting good posture. Less weight will be on you and more weight on the straps.

Start by placing the straps across your chest and shoulders. Lay the lifting strap on the ground in front of you. Then, with your partner’s assistance, tip the heavy item back and glide the lifting strap underneath it. Once the strap is centered in the middle of the item, you should each use both hands to push the item at the same time. This will lift up the item in the air. Then just walk to where the heavy item needs to go.

The easiest solution for moving furniture in a room is by using furniture sliders. They will save your back a lot of strain. You simply put one slider on each side of the heavy item and then move the item to your desired location. This will be especially handy when you need to move the items back in place and want your carpet to be protected from tearing damage.

Slowly tilt the item and slip one slider underneath one of the legs. Repeat this process for all four legs. Slowly push the item where you want it to go and avoid pulling it. When finished, tilt the item again to remove each slider until they’re all gone. This procedure is the same for any item you need moved, whether it’s a couch or a recliner.

In general, the average furniture slider holds around 100-120 pounds. However, this does vary depending on the brand you choose. So 4 sliders under 1 heavy item can hold between 400-480 pounds. This is enough to cover all your standard living room furniture and can even handle oversized items like a safe or appliances.

You should try to get a ballpark estimate on the total cost for rearranging your furniture. Count and measure ahead of time so you will be ready to answer questions about the number of heavy items you need moved as well as their size. Ask the furniture moving service how long they’ve been in business and what their process is like. Search for their moving company online to ensure they have good reviews on Google and Yelp.

My name is Corey and I heard about His Workmanship from my soccer coach at Northwestern University. One of the things I’ve enjoyed most about this opportunity is the chance to meet so many different customers for each project. This really helps me grow in my social skills and prepares me for better customer service in whatever full-time career I choose. Plus, the pay is much higher than what I’d get from other non-skilled labor work during the summer season when I’m not in school.
