The crew was excellent and very quick. David and the guys were really helpful and so was Carlos who was coordinating from the office. Our things were handled with care. The only issue we had was crating our art - which is not the crew's fault but arranged via the office. We paid a lot ($300+) for each "crate" and expected fully constructed wooden boxes, but what arrived for each "crate" was a poorly constructed wooden rectangle to place the art in and some additional wood pieces to put each side to secure it - but it was in no way what was promised and needed a lot of extra layers to be even partially secure and protected. They were supposed to be fully crated on all sides. read more

Professional, transparent, and upfront pricing. No hidden costs/surprises at the end. Two complaints - 1. Miscommunication regarding storage - I was told that storage could be arranged at my destination for a month. I was planning to use that month to hunt for apartments. But at the end, this promise was reneged. 2. Exact delivery date was communicated at the very last moment - For the longest time, I was told that the delivery can happen on one of two days. It's very hard for a working professional like me to ask for time off on two days in advance. Apart from these things everything was spot on. All of the ground staff was very professional and dedicated. read more

Moving is already a time-consuming and stressful task, but with an infant, it becomes exponentially more challenging. Because of this, my husband and I knew that hiring a moving company would be non-negotiable. After researching and talking to close friends who used various companies, we decided to confirm with Careful Movers. They are not the cheapest, but they by far exceeded our expectations during our move. Starting with my inquiry, Mat, our Moving Consultant, was quick to respond and very patient in answering all my questions. Securing our moving date and processing our deposit were smooth processes. Leading up to our move date, Shenna called and emailed with reminders for any last-minute tasks and collected information so our moving team knew exactly what we needed on the date. On moving day, we had a crew of 3 movers: Enrique, Ismael, and Jose/Luis. They were punctual and arrived at our apartment right on time to get started on our move. After walking them through our apartment, discussing expectations, and signing the agreement, they went to work. This team was quick, and I mean QUICK, to disassemble and pack the truck. However, this does not mean they were sloppy by any means. Everything from our baby's furniture to our 75-inch TV was packed with the utmost care. Despite the rain, all of our belongings arrived safely at our new rental and were reassembled exactly as we asked. My husband and I are extremely happy with the services provided by this team and Careful Movers. We wouldn't hesitate to schedule with them again or refer them! read more

I needed movers and requested quotes on Yelp. While other companies texted, Careful Movers called me the very next day (Sunday!) to discuss the job. The rep was very knowledgeable and both asked excellent questions and provided detailed information. Between the two, I accepted the bid for 2 movers handling my 900 square feet apartment. I had a rather wackadoodke move. Most of my stuff went into storage, a minority went into a small cargo van. They loaded both vehicles, unloaded at storage, and were very efficient in their labor. They arrived around 8:15 and were done around 4:00. I paid around $1700+tip. They provided paper furniture blankets, some tape and boxes as well as plastic wrap. So far, I am satisfied. read more

Mat of Careful Movers was thorough and was the only company that did a video walkthrough of my house to assess both the stuff to be moved as well as location in the house. I'd already packed much of the stuff I cared about and left it to Careful Movers to do the heavy lifting of my many boxes and the furniture and electronics. Since I have stairs in my house and the new one has an elevator he estimated 4 men and more hours due to stairs and elevator that could potentially take longer. Enrique and his 3-man team arrived before the scheduled window. They did a walk through for assessment and then proceeded methodically and meticulously to pack what I did not and move everything to their 1 truck (yes, 1 truck was enough). They packed in 3 hours. At the destination (which was local), in spite of the elevator, they finished the move in 3 hours. 10 hours was estimated, but Enrique did it in 6 hours. Kudos to them! They did a fabulous job. I chose Careful Movers based on everything I heard and asked about. They lived up to their name. Everything arrived in perfect working order, and nothing was broken. I HIGHLY recommend Careful Movers for your moving needs. read more

Superb customer service by the company and the movers. The movers, Gino and Jose C., were outstandingly careful, courteous, kind, helpful, and simply wonderful in all regards. They came on time, for a multi-stop move, and kept in excellent touch throughout the move, which involved 3 cities. The owner, Anthony, is a jewel: efficient, careful, thorough, accommodating, and a wonderful exemplar of customer service. One of the employees in the office was rude to me. I reported it, and Anthony had him apologize personally and indicated that he would provide more training in customer service. This level of responsiveness was very impressive. Don't even look at another company. hire Careful Movers. You will be very glad that you did, they are truly a step above! read more

I couldn't have asked for a smoother move experience and have the team at Careful Movers to thank. I initiated my project through Yelp and after following up with a few different moving companies, found that not only was Careful Movers' pricing transparent and fair, but what set them apart was their attention to detail, thoroughness, and professionalism. I had an initial consultation video call with Mat, who carefully noted every logistic, and provided a detailed, itemized invoice. A few days before the move, Shenna called to confirm every last detail. The movers arrived right on time and moved swiftly. My move was not an easy one, requiring the crew to disassemble a grand piano and carefully traverse it down two flights of narrow stairs. Not only were they able to get this done, they had an incredibly positive attitude throughout the process. Everything made it to the destination intact, and the crew were able to set everything up exactly as I wanted it. Huge shout out and kudos to Hermenegildo, Jose, Derlys, David, and Yeison! read more

The service was great! They listen to your needs and treat each peace they move with care. I highly recommend them!

We hired Careful Movers to help us move over 80 boxes plus furniture from a tri-level townhouse to a freshly renovated home. We also opted for two trucks and a five-man crew to make the process more efficient. Enrique, Jose C., Jilberto, Ismael, and Ernesto were awesome and finished the job in a little under 6 hours, which was actually faster than the estimated time. They took good care of all of our furniture items and the homes, carefully wrapping big pieces of furniture, and protecting corners and floors. All of our fragile items survived, and there was minimal damage to the walls despite needing to move very large items around very tight corners. I would absolutely hire Careful Movers again for my next move. read more

This review is a special shoutout to the lead dispatch Carlos C. He just went above and beyond to ensure that after my experience I felt heard and taken care of. The move itself had no issues, everything I own was moved with care from San Bruno to San Jose with no damage to anything. The team used wrap, blankets and tape to ensure that everything was properly padded and supported. They are in fact careful movers :) They also called during the middle of the move to see how everything was going. I just wanted to highlight Carlos going above and beyond not just in his customer service but his humanity. Speaking to someone who clearly hears you and empathizes always takes the customer service to the next level. Thank you Carlos! read more

We had such a great experience with Careful Movers! Angel and his colleague were incredibly friendly, kind, patient, and helpful throughout the entire process of moving our furniture from the store into our apartment. They even stayed late to make sure everything was finished, which we were so grateful for. Another huge plus is that they can provide a certificate of insurance (COI), which is essential if you live in a San Francisco high-rise. Overall, we couldn't recommend them enough--professional, reliable, and truly a pleasure to work with! read more

This is the second time we've used Careful Movers, and they are excellent! Before the move, we had a couple of follow up questions, and they were always available on call and professional. They called to confirm the moving details the day before the move. The movers were punctual, polite, respectful, and very efficient. I'd definitely use them again. read more

I really respect a business that responds to customer feedback, and genuinely wants to solve an issue. Received a really quick response, had two thoughtful conversations, and a solution that worked for all of us. If something does go wrong, you can be assured that Careful Movers will work to make it right. And that's really all you can ask. read more

We needed someone for a long distance move of a few heavy items. I ultimately chose Careful Movers, who offered a flat rate for a shared truck. Ruben was great with setting everything up, and luckily we were paired with another customer quite quickly. For these shared truck moves, it seems different companies will charge in different ways--Careful Movers charged by the hour for packing and boxing (plus for the boxes), but loading and unloading the truck were part of the flat rate, as were all costs associated with the drive (gas, food, lodging etc). Another company I looked into charged by the cubic foot within the truck. The only niggle with Ruben is he forgot the time of our scheduled video walk-through; I had to call him. the day before the move, Shenna called to review everything, and she called for follow up shortly after the initial move was completed also. On moving day, foreman Aaron and his team of 2 arrived in a timely manner and were able to pack/box everything in less time than estimated, saving us some $$. And on drop-off day, they arrived early after our okay. This time it was Aaron and one other person. Unloading was quick; Aaron's attention to detail, care and supervision were instrumental in making the move go smoothly. The other workers were less careful with fragile items, less attentive, only doing what they were asked to do. Luckily Aaron packed the fine china and an especially fragile lamp. Overall a pleasant experience, would recommend. read more

I was pretty happy with the job, but I gave it a 1 star review due to a single issue I was pretty unhappy with. Someone from Careful Movers called me to see if the issue could be resolved.

Update: Carlos from Careful Movers reached out to resolve the issues I raised. As I mentioned in the original review, the customer service is very good and professional. Bumping to 4 stars. For the protection cover concern, I was explained that it is intended for high traffic areas. So that was working as expected. Original review: Requested a move from Mountain View to Cupertino. The customer service gave me a good impression, verifying the schedule, double checking the scope of the move. The actual move was not so careful. I would say nothing special. I saw how one of my boxes fallen off the dolly because too many on them were stacked on top. I haven't checked the contents yet, so waiting for a surprise. During the bed assembly, one of the legs was dropped and left a noticeable dent on the floor. We were asked what kind of floor we have multiple times. But what the use? We only got wooden stairs covered at the destination, the rest of the service was the same (not any more careful). read more

It was easy to set up a convenient day/time and the guys were on-time, professional, and very nice. would recommend!

This is my second time using Careful Movers for a move and it went great both times! This time I also paid for full packing - it was very nice to have professionals pack everything well as I got other moving tasks done. All items were packed carefully and delivered without damage, including a big leather couch and several lamps. The truck had some issues on the drive up but I wasn't charged for the time it was delayed. Communication with movers and admin was smooth. Overall a great experience moving, would highly recommend! read more

I needed a vintage Grandmother Clock transported to my home. I knew I wanted to call Careful Movers. I had an excellent experience when I used them last year for a full move and knew I could trust them again for this job! They sure delivered on it again! From the moment I called to set this up to making sure everything was delivered safely and set up in my home. These guys are professional and know exactly what they're doing. Thank you so much! I never hesitate to recommend them to all my friends and family. read more

Enrique and team did a great job with our move! They helped pack my kitchen, moved all fragile items with care. They were able to assemble my bed fame and ergonomic bed very quickly. The total cost and time came close to what was estimated, their materials cost is a little high but that might be on par with other businesses. Definitely recommend. read more

Exceptional service. Very friendly, very professional, and skilled. We moved out of the area. My wife and I could not have done this alone. We spoke with a few different companies that were absurdly expensive. Some other companies were cheaper but just felt like the were pushing a hard sale. These guys were straight to the point, no nonsense. Gave us an estimate they, honestly, was well under the average cost. They should raise their prices a bit more because the service was top quality. Don't hesitate. These are your guys. Thank you so much!! read more

Just like their namesake, they were careful movers and we got everything done faster than we thought! Would hire again.

From the very beginning, starting with the quote everything went very smoothly. The team, lead by Adrian was amazing. Friendly, professional, on time and efficient! They were extremely helpful and made the day stress free. I would definitely use them again! read more

My partner and I hired careful movers to do the heavy lifting of our move up the peninsula. The three we hired were efficient, flexible, friendly, and great to work with. They treated our items with care and collaborated well with each other. They arrived at the earlier end of our reservation and set up our furniture pretty quickly at our new place! Also, making the reservation was easy and straightforward read more

I hired Careful Movers to relocate a freezer inside the house and move a refrigerator from our garage into the house. The experience was positive from start to finish. Matt helped me schedule the move for the next Monday and set up an arrival window. That weekend Shana called and briefly went over everything with me; she had obviously read the description of the move before calling. She asked if it would be OK for them to come earlier than planned if their moving crew finished with their previous job early. I said sure. Monday morning a dispatcher, Carlos, called to tell me that the crew would indeed be finishing early, and gave me a new earlier arrival window. I subsequently got a text telling me they were 40 minutes out. The 2 movers arrived right on time and were awesome. They pitched in to help unload and reload the freezer and fridge even though we had told them we would handle that. They were quick, thorough, and yes careful. The city was doing work on our cul-de-sac's street, and at one point made the movers move their truck. They rolled with this without complaint. I was very happy; the move could not have gone smoother and they could not have been more helpful. I will definitely be hiring them again if the need arises. read more

I cannot recommend Careful Movers highly enough. They are exdeptional! 4 years before I made a move which turned out to be a disaster for me. Being an 83 year old widower and being alone, I was nervous making decisions. Rubin at Careful Movers perfectly answered my questions in a professional and compassionate way. On the day of my move, as promised, four men arrived on time and were meticulous in how they handled all my furniture and belongings. They carefully wrapped and taped furniture and any item that needed special care. They worked as an incredible team with professional skill, care, and courtesy. They made the move enjoyable for me. I am grateful to all the members of Careful Movers who helped me with my move. read more

**HIGHLY RECOMMEND** Excellent movers!! They were professional, punctual and efficient. Gustavo and James were amazing, especially with large items down a tricky stairwell! They started moving within minutes of arriving and everything arrived in tact. read more

Really respectful, punctual, and helpful movers! I have used them twice and have been very happy each time. Highly recommended.

In February 2026, on very short notice, I felt the need to move my things out of the apartment I shared with my husband for more than 20 years (long story). In one call on a Tuesday, I spoke to Mat and was able to hear about their services, get a quote, and book the move -- on a Saturday four days later. When the team arrived, they were amazingly fast in finishing the job. They got the vast majority of my belongings, aside from things that weren't ready to go, from my second-floor apartment to my (also hastily booked) storage unit in what felt like record time. Foreman Alexander C and crew members Cristian L and Jorge R were courteous and efficient and took good care of my property, including my grandmother's hope chest from the 1930s, which probably isn't worth much on the market but which means a great deal to me. I note that when I told Mat the name of the storage facility, he told me that facility refers people to Careful Movers. When one highly rated business refers customers to another highly rated business, it's a good sign. Careful Movers made a very stressful time in my life much easier. Thank you so much. read more
