I just bought a couch from SOMA Sofa and they reccommended me to Alex for delivery service. It was easy to get in contact with him and make arrangements for delivery. His schedule is online and he is familar with the area. It was a pretty easy move. 1 couch, delivered at time scheduled, and my gf has already taken a picture of me sleeping on the couch which has been posted on FB... Need a mover? call alex. read more

Reasonably priced. Right on time. What more do you need? Alex was great. Don't know why it says he's closed, he just doesn't have a storefront. read more

I highly recommend using "Guy with a Truck". We are moving and needed to throw a lot of stuff away. Alex came today with his crew, on time, and conveniently hauled everything away at very reasonable price. Alex also communicates well. What dream. read more

Wonderful service. Picked up my furniture and assembled it for me. Punctual and very efficient. Very reasonable. I will definitely use this service again! read more

Got the number off a bulletin board at Woodlands... that should have told me a lot, but in today's gig-economy I feel it is important to support those with the gumption to self-start. So thinking this person wanted / needed jobs was my first mistake. I found a six foot leather sofa off of NextDoor and purchased it. When I got ahold of Alex to talk about the five (5) mile one item move, he balked at a flight of stairs, the size of the sofa, the fact that the sofa was leather and would need to be wrapped -a service he clearly "offers" on his website- and while parking was available on the street, he wanted to be right at the door, which was tight for a box truck therefore required a dozen extra steps once out of the apartment. However, once at my place on ground floor, no stairs, back entrance through wide patio door into my living room. All is stated on the website as a do-able one-item move. But I guess Alex just did not feel like it was an "easy" enough move, complaining at every turn in the discussion. Really what move is easy? Suddenly moving my newly purchased sofa became enormously complicated, regrettable and frustrating. From what I can gather here on Yelp, "Guy w a Truck" charges a pretty penny, the same price you'd pay for a licensed, bonded and insured mover to do the job... something to consider when they scuff up walls, floors, or break items. I'm so angry that I wasted the time in an attempt to set this sofa move up but very thankful that I found out before I wasted money too. Of course I did my research and skimmed reviews, the stellar one are loaded on the top. While I was first thrown off by the 4 stars, after this last conversation I began digging through Yelp, I see I am not alone, however, still puzzled by the extra stars - guess those are only the "easy" jobs. As for using "Guy with a Truck" that's a hard pass solid NO for me, absolute waste of time, energy and (for some) money. read more

Used Guy with aTruck 3 times. Good rates and great communication. Highly recommended.

I was researching services that haul away furniture. Within 30 mins. the table was gone. Starting from the beginning: I came across this business on Craig's List. I called and reached one of the employees. Left a message and within mins., the owner, Alex, returned the call. He happened to be in the neighborhood and offered to stop by and give an estimate. When he arrived with one of his helpers, Alex was friendly and professional. The price he quoted was reasonable. Alex asked me to think it over, as they were heading to lunch. No pressure from him, but I pressured him to take the table with him. Alex left the decision to his employee, which was impressive. They were very careful, navigating the table through tight spaces. I plan to call him to help with an upcoming move. Will update this review when that takes place. read more

Showed up on time. Had 2 helpers. Moved the items quickly. Had the right size truck for the job.

Searching for same day pick-up and found Alex! Amazing services (mainly located in San Rafael)! Came right away. Can't beat the price also! Would definitely use and recommend again! read more

It's really convenient to know "a guy with a truck". Especially when you are at OSH the week before it is closing and want to buy an impulse patio set that is 50% off. I texted a photo of the box in the store to Alex and he responded super fast. We scheduled to meet at the store a few days later for him to pick it up and deliver it. He and his helpers arrived early and were very professional and friendly. The rate was very reasonable to have it delivered from San Rafael to my house in Novato. I felt super comfortable and confident with them throughout the whole process (which is important when you are basically handing a stranger a box of stuff you just paid $400 for). read more

Alex is great - inexpensive and personable and really wants to help when there is stuff you just have to get rid of. I had a desk that he took all the way into San Rafael from Novato to a consignment store, only to have them reject it. He turned around and took it to the Novato dump (along with a sofa that we had given him) and did not charge me anything. He said "Don't worry about it". I wanted to compensate him for having to drive to San Rafael and then back to Novato but he insisted that we were square. The only issue is that he appears to run his business by texting and when I asked for an email with his quote and the agreed upon pick up time he told me not to worry, it was on his calendar. Well sure enough it was but I had some worries. However the abundance of positive Yelp reviews reassured me. Alex is a guy that when he says "Trust me", you can. read more

These guys are great! They are professional and go the extra mile. The prices are very reasonable, more than fair! They are friendly and want to please the customer. Alex is the owner and his crew (2) have been with him for awhile. Do yourself a favor and give Alex a call. 415-240-9902 read more

Multiple texts (he recommended) and phone calls went unanswered. Found someone else who was more expensive but came through.

Moving is a sad process. It's a time of change and a time for reflection. I needed to move back to the East Bay and having been a resident of the city for 5 years, I have amassed quite an enormous amount of junk. A heavy black TV stand, large flat screen TV's, a queen size bed, dressers with cavernous drawers that provide room for at least 4 weeks of underwear (take that laundry mats! I don't need your love for at least a month!), and bookshelves that hold hundreds of books... This geek guy is hardly made for manual labor, so I decided to call the big guns. I am also a lagger when it comes to packing up. I called up Alex (owner) on a Saturday and arranged for a move from SF to El Cerrito for Sunday. I must have been the luckiest person in the world, because Alex said he could do it. And within 2 hours. What?! Really? Alex is a man of his word. He came, shrink wrapped my stuff, and conquered. Within 30 minutes he and his staff had vacated my lonely room and piled all of the stuff into his truck. A cool hour later, and he was dropping off everything at my new residence. Professional, courteous, and friendly, I learned how Alex got into this business after owning a top level concours auto detailing shop. He took his experience with him and made sure that even though I wasn't about to enter a Pebble Beach event car show, I got treated with the same respect that he would give a vintage Ferrari owner. I highly recommend Alex for any moves. read more

kind of awkward-and yells a lot at his poor helper- :( Was on time, but lacked the professional element for the price tag :/ read more

Great service, fast communication and honest pricing. I needed to move an item of furniture in San Rafael from a yard sale on the same day and Alex responded right away and organised pick up quickly. Great guy and great business. Thank you! read more

"I was paid to deliver a sofa, and that's what I did" sofa needs to be picked up again, which he had offered to do. After agreeing to pick it up "in 40 minutes" called back to say "I'm gonna take a pass on picking up the sofa". Apparently, it was just to irritating for him to get the sofa back down the stairs he brought them up. Left me completely in a lurch. High school Neighbor came with a buddy and got the sofa down the stairs in 5 minutes and were great. Alex could have chosen to help me out (and not for free) and had a devoted client who moves a lot of stuff, but I'm throwing his contact info out and hiring my teenagers. Take a pass on hiring Alex. read more

These guys are awesome! They delivered my new couches and hauled away the old ones. They were patient, kind, helpful, and really made an effort to suit my time preference. They took all the trash from the couches and left everything spotless. Very reasonably priced. Happy customer here! Highly recommend! read more

I had to move during Covid and the Guy with a truck made life so much easier. There were 3 of them and they were efficient, courteous, helpful. Highly recommend! read more

This experience was A+++. Alex is super communicative, got texts and emails coordinating arrival. Hauled all of our 10 yrs of accumulating odds and ends. Boom, done! Very reasonable and very personable guy to deal with. read more

100% Unreliable. Everyone knows that moving is a well orchestrated, coordinated effort and that little kinks can cause massive headaches. The curve ball Alex just threw me is not a little kink - it's huge and totally screws my plans. Alex bagged on me less than 24 hours before he was supposed to show up. Claims he hasn't been able to finish a job this afternoon and needs to finish tomorrow - truck broke down, etc. He was spewing excuses. More importantly, the only reason I know that he's bagging is that I called him to confirm. I have to assume that he wasn't even going to call me and that I would have been sitting at my house, thumb up my [pick an oriface], waiting for him. Not happy. read more

Alex was able to deliver our sofa from Zebra on the spur of the moment. The cost was as quoted even thought the entry into the house was difficult. His personnel were polite. read more

Needed to move furniture from storage to my house, then the rest of storage to a smaller storage locker. Found Alex on NextDoor and he was super. Instant reply, great communication, very flexible. They showed up on time, were very patient with some last minute complications and had suggestions to help me out. Great team, would highly recommend, and I'll be using them again too. read more

Hired this guy for a short distance last minute move. He took the job at the last minute and I'd hire him again in a heartbeat. Hard to find any movers or haulers when you are down to the wire. Guy with a Truck did the work well within the time frame and in the pouring rain to boot. Kept everything dry and followed all directions on placement. His employees were super too. Affordable, dependable, and professional. Definitely five stars and then some. read more

Alex and his helper delivered my sofa that I bought at Design+ a few weeks ago. They are professional, nice, good humored men who took the exact care required to get my sofa inside and set up without incident. They are now at the top of my "go to" list for deliveries. read more

Alex and his team are great. I needed to haul a bed to a friend's house and then have the old one hauled away. They arrived early, they got it out quick and safely. At the other end my friend said they did a fantastic job! I would use them again for sure. It's great that he is local and no job is too small. read more

Wow...couldn't wait to yelp this guy and his services. He was responsive to my request for bid, came back with a very competitive price, and even fit us into his schedule. We had to get rid of 12 desks, and it had to be done quick before the other desks arrive. He and his two assistants were in and done in less than an hour...and even helped me move some boxes around the office. Gentlemen! Thank you for a job well done and we will be not only using you again, but we will add you to our office resource list (we are a real estate office)... read more

Alex, also know as Guy with A Truck, is fantastic. After reading Julie C.'s review, I have to admit I was a littler nervous, but Alex and his guys did such a great job moving all my stuff. He showed up early and moved everything from my old place into my new place within 2.5 hours. He brings his truck, two moving guys and himself - and his prices are still low ($65 an hour). Hiring Alex and his crew to move all my belongings (including a large couch and bed) was worth every penny. I got to direct where the furniture went and did not have to worry about a thing. So much easier than dealing with Uhaul! read more

I found a (large and heavy) "TV console" at Costco in Novato that I just had to have. I hired "Guy with a Truck" to pick it up from Costco and to deliver it to my house. "Guy with a Truck" arrived, moved my old dresser out of an upstairs bedroom and then hauled my new, and very heavy, console upstairs. "Guy with a Truck" provided excellent communications, had the right truck for the job, and moved my furniture very carefully. read more

Alex and his assistant delivered a sofa and table from Petaluma to SF. Price was reasonable and less than the moving companies I called. Communication via emails and texts were easy and turnaround time was good. They shrink wrapped the sofa and padded the table, dealt with north bay traffic, and were friendly. I was not sure exactly what to expect after reading the yelp reviews, but my experience was good. Granted, this was a fairly straight-forward project, but this experience satisfied the criteria of a good price, good treatment of my furniture, and positive communication. I would definitely consider Alex for future projects. read more

Alex is a star...so he gets 4 stars. I'm definitely a fan. Purchased a piece of furniture in Marin. Found Alex and am I happy! 1) called me back within 2 hours. 2) sent him an email to confirm date and cost and 3) told me he'd be at my house by 11am, and he WAS. bottom line? thumbs up for sure. highly recommend! read more

I have used Alex twice: once to cart stuff to the dump and once to recycle old TV and stereo equipment. He is timely, accurate and not expensive. I trust him that when he says things will be recycled or donated they end up the best place they can be. Communication was good, he generally calls back same day. read more

Just as good as everyone says. Alex was responsive, efficient, and well-prepared to haul my furniture across town. I scheduled a week in advance and it was no trouble to agree upon a time. Prices are extremely reasonable, well worth it for the piece of mind! I recommend Guy With a Truck for any small move or haul job. read more

I find it hard to believe that Alex is getting 5 stars reviews all around. I feel strongly about this bad experience to write about it - I don't write lots of negative reviews at all but Alex and his guys are by far the worse movers we've ever used. It's ok if you don't really care about your belongings and you have all day to wait for him and you don't care if he hits and damages your walls. First all, all I had delivered was a couch. We live in a high-rise so there are tons of rules for reserving the loading dock, putting down deposit, insurance, etc. I spoke with Alex about these regulations and he kept complaining about them over the phone to me, I wanted to get off the phone but he kept complaining. VERY unprofessional. He didn't have to provide insurance, the deposit, or reserve the dock, I do all that stuff. But because I needed to schedule it and told him that we only had 4 hour window to deliver the couch, he was complaining. Then, on the day of delivery, he was supposed to arrive at 2-3 pm, calls that he's going to be nearly 2 hours late because he's out in the East Bay and it's raining. Since I'd only reserved the loading dock until 4 pm, I asked him to get here before 4 pm otherwise we may need to reschedule, and he agrees that he'll make it before 4 pm. Then 4 pm and 5 pm goes by, no call from him. I give him a call after 5 pm and he (without any apology whatsoever or any concern for my time) and says that he's "on his way" to pick up the couch and should be here at 5:35 pm. Shows up at 6 pm - FOUR HOURS LATER THAN ORIGINALLY SCHEDULED and 2 HOURS LATER THAN HIS NEW ETA. Then, proceeds to move the couch in a very rough manner - nearly hitting our sprinklers several times if my husband didn't let out a cry "watch out" several times. It's like they haven't done this before. Our previous couch was delivered by 1 guy (not the 3 that Alex brought) and the couch was moved in very smoothly, no scratched, dents, or even come close to hitting the sprinklers. Came very close to damaging our hallway and unit. And probably would've if we didn't have 3-4 people watching them like a hawk (we were having a dinner party - which was interrupted by this delivery because he was so late). Sorry, but overall bad bad bad. Unprofessional attitude. No concern for your time. 4 hours late and still took my money. I feel like I should've gotten an apology or a discount or something. Very disappointing. And on top of it all - NOT CHEAP! You'd think a "guy with a truck" with this casual attitude would be cheaper. *May* have been fine if it was cheaper, if he had a better attitude, or he was apologetic for being so late. But nope, none of those happened. I think movers are fine until something goes wrong. And with so many things that could go wrong, why risk it with someone who is unprofessional? read more

What a disappointment. With a phone commitment yesterday that it wouldn't cost more than $250 to haul away construction materials. Today he arrived and said it would be $350. That left him with no business and me with materials to still get hauled away. Unfortunate waste of time for both of us. read more

Alex and his crew were on-time, efficient and careful. Got my move done quickly and for a fair price. I would certainly use them again.

After a referral from a friend, I called Guywithatruck.com (Alex 415 - 240-9902) for furniture delivery and I was completely satisfied with his services. In short, he is very reliable, straight forward, have a good sense of humor, and his prices are very reasonable. He also provides other services such recycling, hauling to dump etc. It was a pleasure dealing with Alex and his crew, and I highly recommend them. A.S read more

Alex (aka Guy with a Truck) is awesome! responsive, quick, honest and polite. I needed to clean out my parents' basement and get rid of their old fridge, oven, desk, plants, pots, drywall, cardboard, birdcage, elephant, rhino, hippopotamus... (okay the last three weren't really included). I was going to rent a uhaul truck, move all this stuff myself into the truck, and drive across town to the dump, until I read the horrendous reviews about the uhaul service at the Bryant street branch. Luckily, I found guy with a truck through yelp. Alex quoted me a good price plus the dump fees over the phone and by followup email, and promptly showed up on Saturday with two other movers. They hauled everything into their 10 foot truck within 1 hour and were off, leaving the garage basement completely junk free and breathable. I would definitely hire Alex for any spring cleaning. Save yourself the headache of waiting in line at Uhaul on a Sat and driving to Monster Park dump, and call Alex. Note : he cannot haul away paint cans, but he recommended dropping those off at your nearest Ace hardware. read more
