Customer Testimonials

“Settlers is a wonderful company comprised of very professional, skilled and trustworthy people which is very rare to find.”

— William B.

Scott and I cannot thank you enough for the fantastic job that you and your crew did moving us. After being in our home for 32 years it was a daunting task both emotionally and physically. You made everything go so smoothly and always with professionalism and a smile on your face.

The Settler, JB and Tommy really made the difference from having a miserable experience to an extremely organized and seamless transition during this big life change for us. Thank goodness that all of our friends told us, “You must use The Settler!” Thank you, thank you.

All the best
— Trish & Scott

“Closing my brother’s estate would have been complicated enough without the pandemic.  COVID-19 just added multiple layers of complexity.  As an out-of-state Executor, it was impossible for me to travel back and forth to Connecticut to close on the sale of his house and prepare it for the new owners.  Enter The Settler.  In six short weeks, the team organized absolutely everything.  It was a touchless, seamless, and truly first-class experience.  My move manager communicated with me daily.  She not only recommended what needed to be done but she also always provided alternative options.  

During those six weeks, we not only closed on the sale of my brother’s house, all the contents in it were also efficiently photographed, tagged, boxed, color-coded, and shipped to his next of kin in various locations around the country.  Everything was completed without my ever having to travel.   The third-party firms engaged by The Settler were equally professional and thorough:  movers, appraisers, trash haulers, and cleaners.  Everything was done on time and in record time. I would absolutely recommend The Settler to anyone.  Their communication all along the way was superb.  Thank you! “

“Even though it will take many months to put every last little piece in its proper and permanent home, one thought stands out above all others with my traumatic move, downsizing at every turn, and that is this:that the professionals from The Settler were superb at their job at every turn, every single day, that they produced – what seemed to me the impossible: a difficult job with grace, with purpose, with humor and, yes, with charm.

The fact that I could count on their professional judgement at every turn helped relax my life and my persona to the nth degree. My recommendation as a company or as a single person is merely praise of the highest caliber and I would gladly raise my flag to any prospective client. Thank you for your uncompromising standard of perfection.”

“It was as though an angel had appeared to offer psychiatric help and expertise in every way (physical, organizational, secretarial, family planning). She managed to minimize the logistic problems of the New Orleans move. She fascinated my children with her ability to help divide my possessions. As a result, she helped me to bring to Dallas the possessions that truly mattered. There were many complicated issues in my move, including seven different stops in different cities. Every delivery arrived perfectly. No breakage and no mistakes. I cannot express my admiration for The Settler in glowing enough terms.”

“I cried through my initial appointment and they wanted to work with me anyway! When The Settler team came to help me pack and sort I could only work for about 3 hours before I needed to rest. ‘This is NOT the Real me’ I kept insisting. As the process moved forward, stacks of boxes around the house grew. My new house was under construction. I was a mess. Move day came. The Move Manager suggested I go out for lunch with a friend, I did! Everything was under control at the old house when I left, everything was under control at the new house when I got there. My bed was made, room unpacked, bathroom ready. My sitting room was ready for me that night. Miraculously, I slept through the night for the first time since my husband had died 8 months earlier. This was the Real me!

It was beyond remarkable what The Settler crew accomplished efficiently, patiently and with care. They made this dreaded process comfortable and easy. I felt like a Queen, sitting with my feet up reading the paper while The Settler team unpacked and settled my things into sensible places in my new home. I couldn’t be happier with my experience working with The Settler, worth every penny!”

“Antiques and multitudes of boxes were packed up for Vermont, some furniture and things were put in storage for a new home we are building, and still other things put in storage for a rental during the time we’ll watch the progress on our new house. It was a difficult project and quite rushed because we had not done much sorting ahead of time. Christmas and holidays happened right in the middle of it all so the timing was tricky. But the team, ever cheerful and positive, ever helpful and full of suggestions about things, was a godsend during all of the upheaval and made the process a pleasure and, actually, even fun! I could not believe it. During all the stress, they just made me laugh my way through all of it. It is with the greatest pleasure that I recommend the Settler for anyone about to move. Help (and I mean help of the very best kind) is at hand if and when you need it. I can really vouch for this one.”

— Vicky

“To The Settler team, we honestly don’t know how to begin to thank you! We will forever be grateful for our move manager calling us and saying the search is over for someone to help facilitate the move, I found the perfect people. They sure did, your kindness and patience (along with being just incredible at your craft), has buoyed us through this process.”
