## The honest read

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.

**Strengths:**
- Handles heavy, awkward items — moved a quartz vanity up tough stairs
- Strong Thumbtack record — 4.9★ from 265 ratings, Top Pro 2024–25

**Concerns:**
- Currently unavailable — Thumbtack lists it as not taking furniture-moving jobs

**Where sources disagree:**
- Porch's own page shows both "started three years ago" (owner's words) and "4 years in business" (platform stat) for the same start date
