About New Hampshire

Portsmouth, New Hampshire is a historic seaport and popular tourist destination. The city sits along the Piscataqua River and its proximity to the water meant it was once one of the nation’s busiest ports and shipbuilding cities. In 1800 the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard was established. This was the country’s first naval shipyard and brought a lot of wealth to the city. Portsmouth’s wealth manifested itself in stunning, expensive architecture. For example, there are many Colonial, Georgian, and Federal style houses sprinkled throughout the city’s streets. These houses have since been converted into various museums and attract a large number of summer tourists.

This was our 2nd time using Gentle Giant movers, and we were absolutely delighted with excellent service from start to finish.To begin with, Peter and Teresa in the Office alway reply quickly to email or phone messages, and make it so easy to get a quote and to choose the moving date. The Portsmouth NH Giants crew of Brandon, Cam & Patrick did an outstanding job: Moving 10 doors down the hall to a different Apartment in the same Building, presents a unique opportunity to take shortcuts, eg by not wrapping or packing every single thing into boxes or plastic storage bins. We were not as prepared or packed as we should have been, and since the Moving crew moved so quickly, we quickly fell behind - until Brandon made a few simple suggestions - such as to load the Non-book Bookcase contents into their giant bin on wheels, then to immediately unpack the bin right into the Bookcase - and we got right back on track. (In fact, Brandon said from the beginning, we can empty this whole apartment in 3 hours.)They quickly emptied leftover stuff from closets and other spaces that we didn’t think we’d even GET to. In the end, they finished very near the 4hr minimum (again, only because our lack of preparation slowed them down). They were so pleasant to work with, that they are now my crew, and I will ask for them again next time.It’s our 2nd experience with Gentle Giant and once again, they hit it out of the park. The most important gold standard for Customer experience surveying includes the answers to 3 “Bottom Line” questions: Would you Brag About, Recommend and or Return to this Company (or person) for service? Our response to all 3 is a wholehearted “Heck, YES, Absolutely!” We already brag about and recommend Gentle Giant, and clearly we have and will use them again; we are all done looking for the just-right movers! Thank you so much for having such excellent Movers; what a great company.

Great communication from beginning to end. Fantastic team of movers, Brandon was head and so pleasant. Not a scratch anywhere. We may have been one of the most difficult houses to access, narrow, one lane, houses immediately on the road, pretty impressive driving. We would certainly recommend highly.

We hired Gentle Giant to empty our POD. The guys were nice, efficient, and managed the original packers disastrous packing job beautifully. We had a few heavy and unwieldy items that had to be moved into our new/old home (i.e., tight and narrow areas had to be navigated) and it was done with a smile and no damage anywhere. Highly recommend!

We have moved many times over the past few decades, and across multiple countries. This has been by far the best crew we have worked it. Highly professional, accommodating, and very friendly. And they treated our belongings with utmost care.Thanks so much Catherine, Andrew, Zachary and Jared! You made our move stress free.

The Gentle Giant team was excellent in all aspects of my move - from scheduling to the actual move. All four of the movers (my apologies, I do not recall their names) worked extremely hard while still being careful with all of our things. We appreciated their attention to detail when it came to packing and all of their hard work.
