  • This was the first time I was using Packers and movers services and I was not sure about the work they do. However, from packing till delivery, It was an amazing experience. They are fast, reliable and focused. I was more concerned about my fragile items. However I got all 100% in same condition the way they were at my previous home. I couldn’t imagine I am in my new home, as they have arranged everything as per my pleasure. I fully recommend and appreciate Falcon Freight Forwarders!!! CHEERS!!!
