Verified record
OneLife Movers, also filed as Barnes OneLife LLC, is a small owner-run outfit in Methuen. The BBB lists it as a one-employee LLC that opened in October 2022, while Thumbtack puts it at two employees, and the owner says on Porch the business started after three years delivering for Amazon. Whichever count is right, Thumbtack is where the track record really shows: a 4.9-star average across 265 ratings, 361 hires, and back-to-back Top Pro status in 2024 and 2025, with a background check on file for owner Tuere Barnes. The written reviews on file — five, all from spring 2026 — echo that pattern. One customer, a contractor himself, called in the crew (led by Ray) to carry a heavy quartz-topped double vanity up a difficult staircase and said they went "over and above the call of duty," even attaching the legs before leaving. A repeat customer praised the team's problem-solving when a piece got tricky to move, careful enough that nothing was damaged. Another called it "the absolute best experience," describing an on-time, fast move where the crew even helped set up a piece of furniture afterward. The company also carries an A+ BBB rating with no complaints on file, though it isn't BBB-accredited, and it's brand new on Angi and HomeAdvisor with no reviews there yet. Worth noting: the Thumbtack listing currently shows it marked unavailable for furniture-moving jobs specifically, so it's worth confirming what work is currently being booked before reaching out.

This was my second time hiring One Life for a household heavy moving task. Thru were responsive and thoughtful about doing a good job.
The guys did a great job! They were efficient, polite and when one piece got a little tricky to move they problem solved in a way that made sure there was no damage to my furniture or house. I would definitely use them again.
As a contractor - I am very picky about the people I hire to work for my customers - and so, when I needed a mover to carry a large and very heavy double-vanity with a quartz top attached …up a challenging staircase…I chose Ray and his team - and I can honestly say that they were GREAT! They showed up on time and went over and above the call of duty … even attaching the legs before leaving. They were a five star moving team and I would definitely use them again!!
I had the absolute best experience with Barnes OneLife! The team went above and beyond to help and exceeded my expectations. They were on time, professional, and completed the move very fast. They even went beyond expectations and helped set up a piece of furniture for me. I would highly recommend and personally will use again! Thank you!
I was looking to have a few things moved and it turns out there was same day availability! I will reach out for my next move.
