Camden County ISO movers for local move - Help!

I’m moving my mom from Pine Hill to West Deptford in two weeks, it’s only about 12 miles from pick up and drop off. Moderate load 1BR/1BA. I’ve gotten quotes from Pick and Pack and Ron’s, who were extremely close in price. Although I wish it was less, I’m* *okay with spending this for a smooth move. With so many companies listed I’m doing one final check here for recommendations before I lock it in. We had a bad experience with the last movers so I want to feel confident this time. Any suggestions are very much appreciated! 🙏

Don't use Atlas - they underquoted me by almost $1,000. It was a ripoff.

I wondered about this for a local move, can you rent a shipping pack your self container, and if its cheap enough. It should work

I have used Ron’s moving three times, once a couple of years ago to move a bunch of very large antique furniture from my father in law’s house to my garage, then this February to move to my new house, and also in February to move my son from an apartment to another apartment. They did an amazing job all three times and I will definitely be hiring them again the next time I need movers. They were fast, professional, and careful with everything. I thought their pricing was great compared to movers have used in the past in Philly & NJ. ETA: my final price came in slightly lower on all 3 moves. They seem to overestimate a little bit. I want to say it was a couple hundred less on both moves this February.

Not for nothing, a couple of friends/family, some pizza (or whatever food they like), and a small U-Haul or Penske truck rental could easily tackle a move this small.

I can't tell you how many time I either moved doing this or helped someone move this way until we all got actual houses full of stuff that required movers.
