Graduating from the University of Montevallo in Alabama, Benny has always had a desire to help others. He has been in the healthcare industry for 9 years, and has been in the service industry for 16 years. His desire to help seniors enabled him to put the capital together to go out on his own in 2004, starting Heavenly Caregiver Services, Inc. Continuing service to seniors, he then started Heavenly Care Moving Services, Inc. in 2005. Since then, both businesses have grown substantially due to the quality care he and his team provide to their clients. "It's the best decision I've ever made," states Benny of starting his businesses. "I know I make a difference every day, and I am proud of my team in the field and everything they do."

Testimonials

"This moving experience was absolutely the best service experience that anyone could possibly deliver - starting with the office and contract experience right through moving the packing material and boxes out from Querencia. The 2 young men (Matt and Jonathen) that moved us were simply stunning. Their communication, manners, attitude, thoughtful handling of Mom's belongings was superior. They called when they said they would, they arrived when they said they would, they greeted us with a smile and a firm handshake, packed Mom's possessions like they were the most important items on the planet, packed the truck carefully and completed the entire move from packing dishes to loading furniture in 4 hours. Their exemplary service allowed them to be in Austin on the same day so that our family could meet them could unpack everything and welcome our Mother so she could sleep in her new home that same night.
