I moved with Finch moving from San Jose(house) to San Francisco(apartment 3rd floor). They were on time, nice and speedy! 4 guys showed up and completed our moving so fast (about 8 hours/4 bedroom). Thank you for your great service guys!(Vlad, Alex, Andrew and Pavel) We had 4 bedroom full of stuff, big shelves, double door refrigerator, piano and etc. They brought a lot of blankets and covered all the furniture without leaving any gap. Then wrapped them with shrink. They have big wardrobe boxes for clothes so all our clothes were safe and clean too. We had trouble with our elevator on apartment we are moving in. But thanks to these guys it wasn't a big deal, they used stairs. Its was a bit narrow but thank god we didn't scratched the walls on stairs. Total time was 8 hours and 20 minutes, but they gave me discount for 20 minutes so i paid only 8 hours. Would I call these guys next time? Yes, i would definitely call them. Thank you for your service Finch moving! read more

My best experience of moving was with a Finch guys. Thank you very much to make my recent move smooth and easy for me.

They messed up my wall when moving furnitures, and somehow lied about it. As a result, I had to fix the crack for an additional $200. Took an hour and a half longer than other moving companies for the same job :( It took 7.5 hours overall with 2 movers for a 1 bedroom, but maybe I had much less experienced movers, or just bad luck read more

They did not show up day of my move but called me all day for 12 hour promising me they would come. Finally asked to come the next day. I asked Alex if I would gwt a discount as now I had to take another day off work and was told yes. Next day they took 7 hours to do my move (I moved one year before and same stuff took the other company 4.5 hours), they really took longer than I think they shuould have. Come time to pay and no discount on labor but they would give me the materials for free (what a joke!!) the kicker is that when they left, they charged my credit card a second time for the materials WITHOUT my authorization!!! Steer clear, they have zero customer service. disputed the unauthorized charge to my CC and filed a BBB claim to see if they want to make this right. never had such an awful experience!!! Lastly they broke part of the staircase and claim it was already like that even though I JUST did a walkthrough with the landlord and everything was in tact! read more

Everyone I got to work with at Finch Moving Co. was amazing! First, communicating with Anthony to figure out the appropriate services for my move was a breeze. He clearly laid out some options that made sense for me and got me the service agreement immediately. When the moving team, Alex and Anthony, arrived, they were exactly on time (Anthony from the pricing phase had given me a 1-hour window during which they woulf arrive) and got to work immediately. They were SUUPER EFFICIENT and got my entire place packed up in less than 2 hours. Service was phenomenal, they were super easy to work with and got my place loaded up in no time. read more

Finch Moving Company - Anthony and Alex showing off their handiwork. - Movers Near Me - San Francisco, California

The movers handled my items quite harshly and with little care, causing numerous damages during the move. Unfortunately, they refused to take responsibility, instead claiming that the issues were pre-existing and advising me to use my own insurance to cover the costs. I've included images to show some of the damage. In addition to the lack of care, they worked at a much slower pace than I've experienced with other movers--taking nearly 8 hours to move a 600 sqft, 1-bedroom apartment between two locations just 15 minutes apart. They didn't seem as professional as their marketing suggests. As much as I wanted to have a positive experience, I can't recommend Finch Moving :( I suggest choosing a mover who genuinely cares about your belongings and takes accountability for their mistakes or damages. read more

If you're looking for a moving company that can turn a simple relocation into a full-blown adventure, look no further! These guys specialize in the unexpected. Who knew that moving a few boxes could take all day and result in so many 'mystery' scratches on the furniture? I've always wanted to test my puzzle-solving skills--so thank you for randomly scattering my belongings between rooms, floors, and who knows where! It's been a fun game of 'Where's My Stuff?'. Bonus points for their impressive ability to arrive late, leave early, and somehow take more breaks than I've ever seen. And the best part? They're masters of communication--if you count radio silence as communication. Highly recommend if you're looking for a moving experience that will leave you scratching your head and reevaluating your life choices. This keeps the tone light while getting across the issues with the service. read more

Finch Moving Company - Left mats around - Movers Near Me - San Francisco, California

I had a great prior first move with Finch, but unfortunately my second experience was my worse move ever out of 8+ moves. First, the third mover called-in sick, but we weren't informed of that until only two movers arrived on-site. We moved earlier this spring, so while we understand hiring during the pandemic is difficult, one of the movers also clearly had never done a move before and didn't have the basic training in place. A simple two-bedroom move where we had all the personal items and kitchen pre-packed already (and two miles away) somehow took 10.25 hours. Everything from taking apart the beds, to backing up the moving truck was very slow and unprofessional. We ended up wrapping and moving many items to the moving truck ourselves to help speed things up. There was no acknowledgement or effort from the movers when they saw we were trying to help. There was a general lack of respect for the space, and we felt that the movers were not equipped with the right tools or training. My roommate and I have separately had better experiences with companies with significantly less per hour rate. The movers did not come prepared with wrapping paper or additional boxes. Booties were not worn and blankets/plastic was not laid down so dirt was tracked in our new space. They movers did not clean up after themselves or take out the used moving materials when they left. The almost instantaneous and easy communication with Olga in the Finch office suddenly stopped after we expressed concerns mid-move. She told us to send an email documenting the move that day, but we never heard back. Oh yes, my roommate's sleep number mattress was damaged. Those things are not cheap. We got no response about covering damages. We ended the 10+ hour day exhausted, stressed, with a filthy (new) apartment to clean, a broken mattress, another poorly assembled bed, and a $1,300 bill for extremely subpar service. read more

Excellent job! Staff is very friendly and goes out of their way to make sure everything is delivered safely without damage.

On the 25th of July 2019, I hired two movers to move my items from Concord to San Francisco. The services we agreed on were as follows. Move boxes from Concord to San Francisco. Move large furniture between two apartments in the same building. Payment will be on an hourly basis. Their expected arrival time was between 8 am to 9 am. However, I received a call from dispatch at 9:30 am informing me that their truck had broken down and they were sending another truck on the way. Six hours later, they arrived at 2:30 pm. I drove from San Francisco to Concord at 7 am so I can be there on time for when they arrive for the pickup. But instead, it was the other way around and then we ended up driving in rush hour traffic to get back to San Francisco when we left. I requested them to move a large cabinet from the 3rd floor to the 1st floor. They told me that they should be able to figure it out. I took their word for it and I went on to join a conference call so I couldn't watch over while they work. And it took them an hour and 30 min to move the cabinet downstairs. When I came outside, they already made it to the very last turn of the stairs and told me that they need to damage the back of the cabinet because they are having trouble getting it over the stairway railing. I told them if they can do it without damaging the cabinet and they said okay, they will figure it out. And so, I went back inside and heard the cabinet crack as they scraped it over the handrail which was also damaged in the process. They should have told me that they might have trouble with the cabinet before moving it down or even earlier on. And they should've properly protected the cabinet with wraps or blankets prior to the move. Aside from breaking the back of the cabinet, the legs were also chipped and I found severe scratches, dents, and scrapes in the stairwell on all three floors. The movers did not tell me about it until I saw it myself. And this all happened a month after my apartment renovated which means the stairwell was newly painted. I initially planned to sell my cabinet which I bought for $3500 and was in pretty good shape but unfortunately, I was unable able to sell it due to its condition after the movers brought it downstairs. We even ended up paying to have the cabinet dumped. On top of that, I also paid $900 to a painting company to fix the damaged walls and stairs that had scratches, dents, and scrapes. Additionally, they were six hours late and got stuck in rush hour traffic, which would not have happened had they arrived during the original time. And because the entire moving process took 8 hours, I ended up not moving some of the large furniture pieces because they finished very late at 9 pm. At that point, I decided not to pay for any more of their time to prevent further cost and damage. So in the end, I ended up disassembling and moving the remaining furniture myself. Their response didn't help at all as well. "Someone will take it." "We have people that fix these things all the time." "Our insurance will cover it." I have photos of the damages and I can also provide proof that the hallways and stairs were recently painted that time. I understand as a moving business, situations like this can happen. And I hoped there was an agreement on how to remedy these damages. I did not receive any compensation from Finch Realty or Finch Moving nor from their insurance company. I did not wish to leave a negative review and trigger legal action from these issues. However, I haven't heard from them since they left and took photos of the damages, and so I am just leaving this review for other people to know. read more

Do not hire. It took two workers 16 hours to move a 450sf (already packed and ready) one bedroom apartment. How is that even possible you ask? They sent the most inefficient workers, with one of the two not even pretending to work and spending 4 hours packing ONE BED into moving blankets.... After complaining, I was illegally charged without my authorization. I tried calling and apparently management is not available by phone? and no one can explain to me why, without even talking to me, was my card charged. Do not hire. read more

Excellent experience! The team was super professional and efficient. They did what needed to be done without any fuss, and made sure that all our belongings and furniture reached safely at our new place. They were very careful with wooden floor at the house to ensure it didn't get scratched. They are also experts at maneuvering a truck in tricky places (picture of parked truck attached!) My moving experience couldn't be better. Very happy and highly recommend this company!! read more

Finch Moving Company - Still can't believe how did they fit between those threes!! No single scratch on the track or trees... - Movers Near Me - San Francisco, California

I was looking for a reliable moving company to move my mother in law from San Francisco to San Diego on a very short notice. The company I usually use was not available to do it. So they referred me to Finch Moving who regularly do moves from Northern California/Bay are to Southern California. Finch uses brand new trucks and professional equipment and they also provide storage in San Diego. They were able to store everything for 3 weeks until the place was ready. Five star, thank you Finch Moving team. The came on Monday packed everything and loaded the same day and a day later everything was delivered to San Diego. read more

Finch Moving Company - Finch Moving truck that transported my mother's in law items. - Movers Near Me - San Francisco, California

Summary: We booked Finch based on a friend's recommendation, but it was a terrible decision. The movers were nice and courteous, but lacked experience. They were extremely slow and didn't understand how to properly pack/secure items. The move took more than twice as long as our quote. Management gaslit us saying that was normal and never reached out even after giving them this feedback on their internal survey. Details: We had a simple move: - 2 bedroom apartment - moving everything into a storage unit a 5 minute drive away - dedicated elevator and parking at both the apartment and storage unit - we had packed up everything except for furniture and a few minor items - 3 movers We had spoken to multiple movers and were given a quote of ~3 hours. This seemed reasonable given we did NOT require setup in a new apartment. For reference, our move last year into the same apartment (with all of the same items) had taken 7 hours and required picking up from 2 apartments and setup. This move with Finch took 7 hours and 45 minutes!!! And when we called the owner as to why it's taking so long, he gaslit me saying 5-7 hours is typical. Hilariously, they even exceeded their outrageously long estimate. Some highlights: - one of the movers showed up in slip on sandals - they just threw things randomly into large wardrobe boxes: they put a heavy boxes of dishware on top of a bunch of photoframes and through my monitor just in the middle of the box - the attendant at the storage facility said "they were as slow as molasses" and spent time showing them how to properly load the elevator - I was told an arrival time between 8am and 9am. I didn't get an update until I called at 8:57am. They arrived at 9:24am. read more

Finch came recommend to me by friends because they were very affordable, so I was hoping for a good experience. The movers showed up on time and were pleasant to interact with, but more than once they chucked around our boxes in the truck when they thought we weren't looking and once one of our boxes even fell out of the loaded truck (while it was still parked) for which they said don't worry there was nothing important in there, as though they knew what was in the boxes (they didn't). Some of my stuff was broken / damaged when I opened the boxes. They refunded part of my move, but the basic insurance is extremely limited and barely covered anything. I'd say only go with them if you're on a tight budget and avoid packing anything for them to move that can't take a hit. read more

I can't recommend Finch Moving highly enough. Not only did they arrive exactly as scheduled, they kept me updated throughout the entire process. Alexander (Alex) and Valentine were my Finching Moving pros. They are both highly skilled and perfectionists. They took great care of my belongings and were amazingly efficient. Both are very nice, personable men. If you are moving, be sure to book with Finch Moving Company and request Alex and Valentine. They will make your move a smooth, comfortable process. read more

Had a great experience with Finch and would recommend them to any friend looking for a reliable moving service. Andrii and Alex arrived on-time and helped us move within the city between two apartments that involved in total 5 (very tight) flights of stairs. They worked efficiently and were highly professional, it was clear they knew what they were doing. The move took 5.75 hours for the two of them, which given the number of stairs and items involved, I was happy with. What I appreciated the most was their concern for our items. Multiple times they went above and beyond to identify and secure loose items or parts on furniture to ensure that they would not be lost in transit. They also were quick to use their tools to help disassemble/reassemble items to get the job done. For example the door to the apartment and the couch legs had to be removed in order to bring it up. Highly recommend. read more

Called Finch for a last minute move and they were able to secure me movers within minutes! Movers were so quick and gentle with all my furniture, disassembling and reassembling, wrapping, and carrying my boxes. Super friendly and wore masks. Would absolutely work with Finch again! read more

I hate moving like most of you all but Andre and Nicolai made our moving super fun and easy from San Francisco to Palo Alto. They are both amazing, energetic and super fast guys. They secure everything before laoding and at the end everything was in perfect condition. It took like 4,5 hours to move our 1 bedroom apartment (except driving)...Speaking of driving, the road normally takes 45 mins. I left San Francisco 10 mins after them and had an average speed of 85 on the way there and when I arrived I was shocked. They were already in the new place before me driving a 24 feet truck!!! They said, it took 45 mins to drive as well which is very unusual considering the size of the truck. Overall it was an amazing moving experience from beginning to end and i also have to give them an extra credit for beating me on driving skills. Thanks guys! read more

We had 2 guys move us within San Francisco with an extra stop in the middle. We only had them take the bigger furniture items and a few heavy boxes, so it took less than 2 hours. Every place charged a 3-hour minimum which we knew we wouldn't need, but Finch's price was the best with the best reviews. Really impressed with the guys' speed and carrying things up a few floors via stairs at the new place. Some of those boxes were packed with books and really heavy; surprised they actually held up. My only complaint is that after they left, we realized some of the furniture was dinged up a bit, there were some marks on the wall, and scratches on the hardwood. Would recommend again. Logistics were great, movers were friendly and fast. read more

This review is about a week late, but better late than never! I could not be anymore relieved and happy with our movers Andri and Pasha. I hope I spelled their names correctly. They helped me moved this past Sunday from Daly City to East Bay. They handled EVERYTHING with care and we had a couple of laughs along the way. I would use this moving company again and again! You really can't beat the hourly rate and the sincerity of the movers. Thanks again! read more

Exceptional!!!!! Andrew and Ken were amazing!!!! They moved my elderly parents from San Diego, California to Genoa, Nevada. Absolutely efficient, professional ,Courteous and everything was intact and in Pristine condition. Thank you thank you thank you! Finch Moving Company is the real deal!!! read more

Their work is amazing and very professional and all I had to do was relax!! The move was long distance so they made sure they had all the details for the move upfront and they arrived on the locations perfectly. The furniture and the all the stuff was well protected and I wouldn't have been able to do a better job than what they did. 10/10 Will use them again if I have to. read more

I've thought long and hard about writing this follow-up to my original review. On February 22, two weeks after my original review, someone from Finch called me to say that they were concerned that I had a bad experience, and that they'd like to make it right. They offered me compensation of $300, in exchange for which I would obviously have to take my original review down. I refused the offer. The next day they called back with an offer of $500. I refused that one too. I mentioned this to a number of friends, some of whom I had cautioned against using Finch's moving services. They all thought I should write a follow-up to my original review mentioning these offers of money, but I didn't want to take it further. Then, a month after the calls, I received an email from Yelp HQ stating that they're writing because of "one or more complaints" about my original review, and cautioning me that "posting false information can have legal ramifications" and pointing out that I have the option to take down my review. (NOTE: despite these complaints, Yelp has NOT taken down my review.) I take this review very seriously, and I stand by everything I said in my original review. I also do appreciate the fact that they called me and said they wanted to make it right, and I understand that this is not the kind of situation where I can get recourse in other way. But my missing camera and lens themselves cost around $800, and the missing alcohol was another $200. On top of that is the fact that some stranger now has access to all my photographs. I have to wonder if those calls and offers of money weren't about making it right for me as much as finding a quick way of making me take down my original review. read more

I had a great experience moving from San Diego to San Francisco with Finch Moving Company. My family hadn't moved for a long time, it was a challenge for us. However, Finch Moving made the move easy and stress free! These guys are awesome! It all started when I gave them a call and Anton answered all of my questions. He was friendly, professional, and really helpful. He offered me free visual estimate, and in a couple of hours the guy from Finch moving came to my door. He walked around the house and asked me some questions about upcoming move. The questions really made sense and I couldn't even think about those type of things like materials, hours, workers etc. Despite other offers that we got, Finch gave us the best price and we decided to go with them! And I never regretted about it. They sent me electronic contact with detailed information. It was really nice because I didn't need to print, sign, scan, and send it back like in the old times. It took a sew seconds to complete the blank fields and sign it. One day before the move, their rep called to confirm the move. We were good to go! On the moving day, I knew exactly what time they're coming because they send me text that they were 20 min away. They showed up on time and explained to me the moving process. They were very friendly, efficient, and careful with our stuff! All my furniture was covered with special pads and plastic wraps. They also reassembled my bed and office desk. All I did was relaxing on my backyard while guys did all the hard job. You can't ask for more! They loaded truck before noon and delivery was scheduled for the next day. Throughout the whole time Anton was on the phone with me and gave me updates about the crew and ETA in SF. In the next morning, the same people showed up at our new place in SF. In 3 hours they unloaded everything. They even organized my furniture the way I wanted! No doubt, the best moving company that I ever hired! I will definitely call them in a year if I decide to move again. Highly recommend! read more

A couple of days ago I have been spoken to my friends and ask them who can give me advice about affordable moving services for a simple job. One of my friends told me about Finch Moving Company. I hired these guys to move a couple of items from the storage in San Francisco to my apartment in Walnut Creek. I expected that the job will be done as fast as possible because I had to go to work after. I would like to say that I experienced no problem scheduling my move by phone with them. We discussed all of the details and they gave a good price. I asked them to be on spot at 8:00 am and this is not a problem for this company. The movers Andrii and David did a great job in a timely manner. They arrived to start the job even 10 min in advance. They were very neat and fast. I have to say that they even asked me about every box what room I would like to place in. It is very efficient. I recommend these guys with no doubt for everybody, read more

We recently used finch moving to move from SF to the East Bay. After getting what we thought to be a pricy quote, I called Finch for an estimate. They suggested 3 movers for our 1200 sq ft two bedroom house to complete the job in one trip. They arrived at about 8am and left our new home at 6pm. They were very reasonably priced and made the stress of moving far less stressful- highly recommend! read more

The 2 movers arrived on time and worked continuously until the job was done. They were professional, courteous, and did an excellent job protecting my furniture during the move. Christopher really shined! I'll contact them again for my next move. Thank you! read more

This is my second move with Finch. The first was a great experience, and even though we had twice as much stuff this one went smoother. Not only do I recommend them, but they're the only movers I recommend. If these guys were overbooked I would rather pick a different move date than go with someone else. Vlad, Joseph, Paul, and Omar turned what should of been 2-day move out of a house on one of the tallest hills in SF into a relaxing experience. They were an efficient, covid safe, and charming crew that went the extra mile every step of the way. We have a deep gratitude for how much care they put into taking care of our furniture, while moving twice as fast as any other crew I've seen (6th move in 5 years in the bay). Again, can't recommend them enough. read more

This was my 14th move and so am an experienced mover. I have never had such a smooth move. They were fantastic. The whole team. From appointment, scheduling, confirmation to today the day of move. Pleasant, professional, very helpful. Assembled quickly and if I tried to do anything quick to ask if I needed help. Fast, efficient and funny too. Cleaned up for me too and took boxes out. I absolutely recommend them. Loved them. read more

Had the best experience with this moving company! They were very professional before the move, were on time, super efficient (even though my move was not an easy one) and brought everything with zero damage. I highly recommend them! You won't be disappointed read more

These guys are just fabulous. Great service, friendly, timely. Andrii, David, Vasil hooked us up. I'd recommend them to anyone anytime.

I hired Finch moving to help me move apartments this past weekend, and they were great! They do have a 3 hour minimum and I thought I'd be under that, but unfortunately we went just over at 3.5 hours. They worked quickly and efficiently and I was glad to see them wearing masks. read more

Andrii, VS, and Victor were professional, prompt, efficient, and worked quickly. They helped me gather last minute items and brought extra wardrobe boxes. I'm military and move frequently. They were one of the best I've seen and ended up giving each of them a $50 tip for their exemplary service. read more

The team showed up a little bit late, but how could I not give them 5 stars? Alex, Chris, and Vladimir were fast, friendly, and careful with our stuff (nothing is damaged, let alone broken). $160 per hour for a 3-person team is a good rate, also. read more

Need help moving to my new place in SF. It was a complicated move but VS and Pasha made life so easy! One loading dock was out, I was moving half of a 2 bed out, needed furniture disassembled, moving into a half already furnished 2 bed, etc. VS and Pasha arrived on time, scopes out the place, signed paper work and got to work protecting all my items and getting things ready to go. I got to chill and relax and these guys were moving super efficiently. All the items arrived safely and ON TIME. Stayed within budget. 10/10 would recommend. Easiest move of my life read more

The call to get the quote was clear, no BS to get the price and time (also the cheapest in SF). TONI Was great to speak to and he is cool!!!

They arrived really early with plenty of notice and pre calls and at arrival!!! Super amazing read more
