We recently had our household goods packed by Acme for our move. After at least 10 moves throughout my husband's career, they easily rank as one of the best companies we've worked with. The crew was professional, careful, and took the time to pack everything thoroughly and securely. We truly appreciated their attention to detail. A+ experience--highly recommend! read more

They were very helpful, respectful and timely. Great care was taken protecting my furniture.

Acme Moving & Storage has been great to work with! At Renov8ion, we've coordinated with their team and consistently hear positive feedback from clients and partners. Doug is especially great to work with. He's very professional, responsive, and knowledgeable. He sets clear expectations and makes the process easy. Based on our experience and the strong reputation they've built, Acme is a company we're confident recommending. read more

We decided to use Acme for our move because we were so impressed with their hard work to help the L.A. Fire victims. We felt that such a community-minded company would take good care of their customers. We were not disappointed. The crew arrived right on time and worked hard to make our move as smooth as possible. They will be moving us back into our home after our remodel is complete and we are confident that they will do an excellent job for us one again. read more

The ACME team, Doug, Phillip, James, and Anthony helped our Chamber of Commerce office move last week. This team did an outstanding job. They were careful, thorough, and very professional. They did a complete walk through of both offices to confirm all expectations then proceeded to get the job done exactly how we'd hope for. Highly recommend ACME for your next move. Thank you ACME Moving & Storage, you made our moving transition smooth and worry free. read more

Jorge and his crew have moved us multiple times and always done a great job. Good crews always on time And always find a solution to problems that arise Would not hesitate to use them again read more

I used Acme to move from Palm Desert to Raleigh, NC. I have moved many times - internationally and across country. Acme was by far the worst experience I have ever had. The damage was extensive and although I got my shipment in May I keep finding damage in unexpected places. They did not compensate me for the actual cost of repairs but 30 cents on the dollar. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. RUN THE OTHER WAY. read more

See all

While I had a fairly smooth moving experience, however I am still waiting for my check for damaged items 6 months later! We have called and emailed several times with all the appropriate paperwork and pictures and they have gone silent. We have spent a lot of money for this move and it's a shame they have not given us the courtesy of a response. read more

It is otf en said that moving is one of life's most anxiety ridden ventures. Not with Acme. They came on time. They carefully wrapped all items. They smoothly moved all our belongings. Moreover, they accomplished the entire smooth move in under the estimated cost. I would not want to move again, as my wife and I are older, but if we do, I know where I will seek help. read more

You will not regret using ACME... they were recommended on NextDoor by several people. Doug came out, gave us an estimate and it was pretty much what i expected. What i didn't know was the level of professionalism and care that they provide. 2 packers showed up the day before move, spent much less time than i expected and got everything ready to go. I was 'around' but not really watching but they were fast and so careful. Day of the move, they showed up right on time with a HUGE truck, 3 guys and they were packed and gone by early afternoon. Delivery was smooth, they were very careful with everything IN the truck as well as in the new house. There wasn't a wall nicked or scratched. They covered the OFF WHITE carpet with blankets so there were no tire marks from dollies. SO careful and mindful. When i unpacked... there was ONE, small glass kitchen baking pan that was broken. That's ALL... out of the gazillion boxes of breakables... one, 4x4 glass pan. Even my delicate things that i meant to hand carry but forgot before they packed them, made it safe and sound. Not a picture glass, lamp or multiple large mirrors... not one thing was broken or scratched. AND, on top of that, the estimate was higher than the actual cost... name ONE mover that does that? And with gas at well over $6 a gallon. I can not say enough good about this company. Everyone from Doug on down the list was so friendly, and careful and efficient. They are GEMS and well trained professionals. Moving is stressful and when all you 'stuff' drives away in a big semi, you heart and mind are on edge until you see it again. ACME and their stellar employees made our move a positive experience. Thank you thank you thank you... from the bottom of our hearts! Gary and Jayne read more

James and Phil where very personable. They had a great attitude and had a sense of humor.. and they worked really efficiently and effectively!

Easy move, great Service!! I called Acme Moving last minute (needed to rush move) and they were able to schedule my move for same day service. The movers were friendly and fast. I had a 10' x 10' storage unit (packed front front to back and all the way up to the top); movers unloaded the storage and unloaded to my house in just a few hours (this was a local move). The Customer Service was excellent, thanks Paul!! Great communication and follow-up. I would definitely recommend Acme Moving to anyone how needs this service and I'll definitely use them in the future. read more

First time using a moving company. Requested quotes on-line and Doug responded right away. I liked he was local to the Coachella Valley. Doug was aware of the specifics of a military move. My son was moving to Rockville MD to attend medical school. Doug was in contact for the entire move. James, the mover on this end was fabulous, prompt and courteous. Furniture arrived in a timely manner. A little bumpy on the receiving end in Rockville, but Doug smoothed everything out. Having direct contact with the owner was priceless. Definitely recommend this company for any move. read more

We've moved many times, but by far this was the best moving experience we've ever had. Doug gave us a very fair quote to move from California to Utah. The packers arrived right on time and so did the loading crew. Everything made it without a scratch. I'd recommend Acme with 5 stars. read more

On signing the moving contract, Doug, the salesman said they would send 3 professional movers. On moving day they sent 2 movers, one was seemed to know what he was doing, the other was an 18 year old kid with little experience. During the move I asked the older mover to please dismount the glass doors on an inexpensive display cabinet. He assured me it would ship with the doors attached with no problem. Both doors were destroyed. It cost me $950 to replace them. After many attempt yo deal with Jose in thier "claims" department, Acme Moving offered me total compensation of $45 based on a "50 cents per pound" clause in the contract. I would go along if I had not asked them to ship the doors separately. A couple other miscellaneous items were broken and I was disappointed in the level of employees they sent. The "claims department" is a joke. Doug, the salesman said, "Well, it is what it is". Don't use this company. read more

After 3 years of working with Acme I've decided to give them this well deserved 5 star review. Acme is by far the best Origin and Destination service provider in the Coachella valley. ACME's storage looks like a museum which is a hard to find in the moving & storage industry. ACME's Personnel is well trained and super responsive. Highly recommended read more

We highly recommend Acme Moving & Storage. We used this company for two moves. Both times, they were on time, professional, respectful, and very careful with the items being moved. They were great! We would hire them again. Nancy T. Mobile Zoo of Southern California read more

This is a best moving company in the Desert area. I have used them several times , moved from Desert to Florida, from Desert to New Jersey and from Mission Hills to Florida. Doug has the best , professional service team , he is great communicator, always answer the questions. He is able to help in any case , has great leader skills. thank you Lilia Shvarts read more

This is your moving company. Stop searching, call. I'm really grateful for these guys. I have been stressed planning a move for my mother who needs to move to receive more care. Attempting to manage a very heavy personal load of responsibilities in addition to nightly packing and trips to Angelview...the thought of moving her belongings felt daunting. I spoke with Robert on the phone and he was very kind and accommodating. Jose and Jesse arrived on time and are equally kind, patient and quick. What would have surely taken me two full days took them just about 4 hours with travel time. They were very upfront about charges and set my expectations early. I can't say enough about the guys. They were a great team and they took so much stress from me. Thank you. read more

Acme Moving & Storage - Perfect. - Movers Near Me - Palm Desert, California

We moved from our home into storage and, several weeks later, into our new home. The team of three securely packed items such as lamps and pictures, which we did not pack, to prevent any damage. Not one item was broken or damaged in either move. They moved us back into our home. I was impressed that many items had to be placed on the second floor. Not one scratch was on the walls as they moved furniture and boxes to the second level. Doug handled the quote and followed up very quickly on all my emails. The moving teams were polite, courteous, and respectful of our homes. They moved me in and out on the days I requested with no issue. I highly recommend this company for moving. read more

The guys at Acme Movers provide an A+ service. They went above and beyond in moving my dad from closer to family. Highly recommend! read more

Fantastic Move! JJ, Jessie and Cesar were professional , skilled and friendly. The initial quote and response was great . The move ran smoothly , it went off without a hitch. I requested an extra drop off. Once the truck was loaded they followed me 2 miles and the drop off was easy. Then they departed for the final destination. I highly recommend this moving company. read more

The three guys showed up on time, did the move, had trouble on the delivering end with low ceilings and lots of turns, but carried three pieces up 7 flights of stairs and never complained. They were awesome. Would recommend them highly. read more

Used ACME to move our entire household, including golf cart, from Sun City to Carlsbad in September of 2020 and were very happy with every stage of the move. To begin with, Maurice met us at our home in Palm Desert before the move, and told us exactly what to expect during the entire move. I was nervous at first because we had so much stuff and was told they would have to keep our items in their truck overnight (because how long it would take to load, drive, then unload, and then drive back). It turned out everything went extremely well with absolutely no drama. Really the entire process was just as smooth as silk. The crew (J.J., Jesus, Daniel, and Carlos) showed up in Palm Desert exactly as scheduled, performed their duties as Maurice told me they would, and then left for Carlsbad. The next day the same crew showed up at our new Carlsbad home exactly as scheduled, were extremely professional, and unloaded everything. They placed everything exactly as directed (and were always very nice and respectful when performing their duties). They even finished early with absolutely nothing broken or missing! Not only would I use ACME again, but would do so with peace of mind. read more

This is my third time using Acme moving and storage. David, David and JJ were an amazing team on this move. The time they spent carefully wrapping everything to be placed in storage for us for several months was absolutely incredible. Our home had many pieces of heavy furniture and large pieces of glass and they did an outstanding job looking after those fragile items! I'm most impressed that they work carefully and quickly! read more

Acme was responsive, very competitive in pricing, and moved use as scheduled and arrived on time as promised. We had zero damage to our goods and zero damage caused to the house we sold and one we moved into by the moving crew. The three gentlemen who packed us and delivered our furniture were neat, friendly, and did everything we asked of them. I will recommend Acme to anyone moving from the Coachella Valley. read more

It seems as though folks are quick to complain but slow to compliment -- thus I am writing to give a "GOLD STAR" to Acme Moving & Storage concerning our recent move. The first (very pleasant) surprise was a phone call response to my email inquiry -- on a SUNDAY evening, no less!!! WOW! Every step of the way it was a terrific experience. Doug (in the office) was great to work with. He was cordial and agreeable and was able to give us the exact moving date we needed as well as a little later start time (even though it was probably not as convenient for them). The estimate he gave me was within a few dollars of the actual bill based on the number of hours the men worked. No surprise "up-charges"!!! The actual moving crew was FABULOUS (and we are pretty darn fussy)! They were courteous and respectful, friendly, efficient and hard-working. This was not an easy move but we never heard a complaint or grumble the whole day. I have no qualms about highly recommending Acme Moving & Storage. read more

I hired Acme Movers to RE- organize my storage units. They charged me $750.00 and did not finish the job. They were rude and unorganized. I had to hire another mover to RE-do what they messed up at another cost of $800.00. Jorge the manager at Acme stated they were there, so terrible job or not they were there, so sorry. Hire at your own risk!!! read more

I have moved 15 times in my life, and this company is, by a wide margin, the worst moving company I have ever dealt with. It started with the packers. Although we did not opt to buy the moving supplies from them, at a cost of approximately $950, they started using their own supplies anyway, until I caught them. Later, after after the move was in progress, the company rep told us he wanted us to pay for the supplies!....deplorable!!!. So off our possessions went, and off we went to Chicago from Palm Springs. After a week on the road, we arrived in Chicago, where we waited, and waited, and waited for our possessions to arrive. Although they originally told us it would take three weeks, they later qualified that, and said they meant 21 business days. When I spoke with the company sales rep, Doug, he told me he didn't know where our stuff was, and he would call us back....Really?? When he did call me he said out possessions were sitting in Los Angeles, where they have been sitting since moving day. At that time he also told us that since we were moving into a city building with a narrow alleyway/loading dock, it would be an extra $500, (we made special arrangements for them to park on the street, so we never paid this). "Moving" on, finally our truck left LA, headed for Chicago, and still they couldn't tell us when it would arrive. On the very last day of the 21 business day window, with one days notice, our possessions finally arrived. Now for the really bad part. As we started unpacking, we found many broken items, big and small. At last count, we discovered twelve damaged items. We opted to not buy their "extra" insurance for $500, so we were to get only 60 cents per pound for broken items. As an aside, I caught one of the movers trying to hide a large item that was absolutely crushed....disgraceful! He then turned around and had the gall to ask for a tip. Topping this all off, our claim for the 60 cents per pound of broken items was turned down because they said they didn't pack the items.....LOL....Really?, so what did we pay those packers for, and why were we charged for boxes we didn't ask for? These are just the highlights of our negative experience....there are more. but you get the idea. From other negative reviews I have seen on Better Business Bureau, and Yelp, the norm for these guys is to respond by customer blaming. Don't fall for it. Never once did they ever say they were sorry for any of this. This is a horrible company imo, and I would certainly never hire again. read more

Prompt, efficient, careful, reliable, and affordable. Quick, efficient packing, loading, and unloading. My Go-To referral for moving services within the Desert Cities of the Coachella Valley. read more

Very pleased not only with the service, but with the scheduling. I had to reschedule my move twice, once on very short notice, and they coordinated their team to work with me (thanks, Robert!). The office staff was responsive and friendly, and the movers were cheerful, careful, and quick. Our schedule was so tight, we had to move in while painters were finishing up painting doors and walls. But, the movers worked respectfully and carefully around the painters. I appreciate how they checked with me about exact locations to place furniture. True professionals all around. read more

These folks were outstanding. From first contact until the job was done, they were first rate. Honest estimate, quick response time, and they even adjusted the fee because some items had already been moved. Very friendly and speedy hard workers. Our real estate agent, Kathi Lewis, recommended them. Best recommendation ever. You will not be disappointed. Joyce and Joe Lane, Palm Desert read more

I recommend Acme Moving & Storage! I recently moved and they did an amazing job! Dave, Jesse, and Mark were very professional and friendly. they got the work done fast and were careful with all of my furtniture! Very helpful! they deserve 5 stars Thank you for all the help! read more

Acme moving and Storage makes moving a pleasant experience that tends to be very stressful. I would like to commend the professionalism of David, Jesse,Sean and Julio for a job well done. I will recommend everyone I know that when they move they should only use the best, Acme. Maurice was also a pleasure to deal with from the very beginning of my getting prices on what it would cost to move out my entire house for a remodel. A big thank you to all of you.. read more

we -HIGHLY RECOMMEND this Company. Doug who we spoke to was so friendly and easy to talk to. we were selling our Condo and had a very short timeline to move and he accommodated us more than once with a last minute date change as well. the two guys showed up (on-time) and were super efficient! would most definitely use this Company again read more

Tony and Jesse were wonderful! They were friendly, nice and helpful! ACME is highly recommended!

Moved items from Palm Desert to LA. Out of the gate - great dealing with Quinn who was fun & personable & gave us a quote, assuring us that it could end up being under according to travel time. (IT WAS! Nice surprise.) All items arrived on truck superbly wrapped and protected. Tony & Philip were completely professional, friendly and patient with us. So nice and did such a great job. Great experience. Highly recommend. read more

I inquired about their moving services via yelp and the person I spoke to was very helpful, set up a 7am time. When I confirmed the night before, he told me 7am would be too early because they needed to wait a certain amount of time afer ending a job, and they were working late that night. So, he pushed it back to 10:30am. All was fine when the 3 guys showed up and got everything into their truck after 90min of work. Then, they said they needed to take a lunch break. Ummm. Ok. He stated it was the law to take a break after so many hours of work, which implied they had another job before us. So, they pushed our scheduled 7am appointment back so that they could move someone else?!?! Not cool. An hour later, they returned and finished the job. Nevermind that they deliberately worked slowly because they were getting paid by the hour. They only listed their lunch break as a half an hour and added driving time (which no one ever mentioned they'd do). They did the job reasonably well but some little bloopers along the way. Who takes a lunch break in the middle of a moving job, then makes them wait an hour? read more
