These guys came in and saved my whole nightmare of moving from a third floor apartment!! I packed and realized how much stuff I had accumulated and there was no way I could do it with a few friends. David gave me a great price and him and his team came with two trucks and got everything out and in my new place , Within 4 hours the move was done ! Thank you , I hope I don't move again but if I do independent movers will be who I call! Thanks guys read more

Couldn't have been happier with Independent Movers. From my first contact with Dave everything went smoothly. Dave was extremely responsive answering all my questions and able to me a quote over the phone. The team on moving day were prompt and efficient and were a well oiled team and I was amazed at the care they took with my furniture. Highly recommend. read more

Independent Movers quoted me the best rate for my very short move. Just a text msg here and there, got the job done. Cool guys. Would hire again. read more

The guys were prompt, professional, friendly and CAREFUL. They took the time to wrap my sofas, mattresses and other things to protect them. They did a great job navigating some heavy objects around some difficult corners. I will use them again if needed. read more

I hired this company to move a large hot tub, and the team was professional, efficient, and well-organized. They arrived on time, handled the move carefully, and clearly knew what they were doing. I was worried about trying to move the hot tub myself since it's valuable and couldn't withstand an accidental drop. These guys were very careful with it. The Pricing was fair, communication was clear, and I felt comfortable knowing they were insured. I would absolutely use them again and would recommend them to others. read more

I sent a request through Yelp for assistance with an upcoming move. I had several responses. Dave from Independent Movers was one of the responders. His message was clear and direct providing all the necessary information needed for me to make the decision to go with Independent Movers. I felt confident that their service would meet my needs for a competitive price. All details were confirmed. The day before the move Dave called to confirm my move. On the day of the move they arrived timely. They asked for clarification on the items in the apartment to move. They protected my items and took good care of them. They were quick and efficient in packing up, driving over, and unloading. They were nice, friendly, and professional. I would definitely use them again. read more

They were easy to communicate with and very professional on moving day. Would recommend

The guy came out on 12/2/25 to help me with my move to an upstairs 1-bedroom apartment. He was on-time, had his own tools and was very helpful. All in all, it really cut down on the total moving time. He charged me a flat rate of $150.00 for a few hours, and we got the heavier items (my couches, bed, and dressers) up the stairs in a shorter amount of time. My other friend was dealing with ongoing Melanoma and could not get his wife's ok to help me out! I would highly recommend this gentleman. read more

These guys were super efficient and fast, but also took care and moving all of my items. They were also super friendly and on time.! Would definitely recommend them and use them again! read more

Great crew! Great communication! On time and very efficient! Super smooth move from Apt &large storage into house. Quote came in almost exact and very reasonable. Would hire again read more

Independent Movers is amazing! Dave was so professional and easy to communicate with. I used them to pack up my house and the two men were wonderful! I wish I had booked them for my move but would highly recommend their services. They showed up on time, worked hard, were friendly and the cost was reasonable. read more

they were on time and took care of all furniture while moving great attitude I highly recommend independent movers

Couldn't recommend more! The guys were so careful with my things and packaged everything up with care. On time and everything was just as I was told it would be. Pricing was comparable to my other quotes. And they had to deal with tricky terrain and go upstairs many times to unload. read more

The team was super professional and helpful. I highly recommend them! I used their services for a quick heavy-lifting job for a flat rate, and they were very thorough. I would definitely use them again for lifting or moving. read more

I was surprised that IM could help me without much notice after another mover fell through without a word! AND what a gift! They took such care of me and were a healthy positive crew that helped me undo 30 years of my office that had amassed so much stuff that it really was my second house; 2 rooms, a waiting room, an attic! Anyway, my angels were looking over me! Thanks guys! You ARE the best! read more

I would highly recommend this company for your moving needs. They showed up on time and took care of business. They needed to move their truck a few times while loading, our parking lot is a mess, and did so without any issues or complaining. All of the staff was friendly and worked at a great pace, despite being paid by the hour. I can't remember them taking a break all. When it was time to unload it was 105 degrees outside. They again, took care of business without any complaints or issues. read more

Dave and the team at Independent Movers were AMAZING! They moved me two days ago... dependable, on- time, quick, efficient, careful with my things. NOT a single scratch... everything wrapped and secured properly. AMAZING... book them today, don't hesitate! read more

Dave, the owner, was super helpful. I sent a description and pics. We also had a ton of plants to move so he arranged for 2 trucks - one specifically to carry all of them. The three guys who moved us were courteous, efficient, and prepared with masks since it was a 'coronavirus move'. It was a local move (less than 1 mile) and nothing got broken. Highly recommend using them. read more

What a beautiful way to start "December"....yes, a move to a new lovely place! What made it even better was the daunting services of Independent Movers! With only a month to move (or risk losing this gorgeous place), it was a week away and I didn't know how I was going to get moved. I checked on Angi's list and called a few people. Then Dave from Independent Movers called me back. He sounded like a real person who cared; I didn't need to talk to anyone else. After that I made several calls to Dave with a lot of questions and each time, that "real person" responded as if he cared and made me feel more and more comfortable about the move. The day of the move came, and 3 Incredible guys showed at 8Am sharp, as promised by Dave, and by a little past 12noon they were done! Eric, Tony and Dominic were the Stars of the Day! These 3 gentlemen were the best of the best! They were kind, diligent, patient, hard working, professional, and so helpful to me; I could add on many more adjectives to describe how wonderful they were, to express how this move was such an incredible success! They were "real people"! I will recommend the services of Independent Movers every chance I get! They are worth their weight in gold. Thank you Dave, Eric,Tony and Dominic!!! Dori McDonnell read more

These guys are great. We had a huge fridge and stove we needed moved up some very steep stairs and through a small entryway. They did an excellent job. They were on time and communicative. Next time we move we'll be calling Dave and his team. read more

A very positive experience from start to finish! We moved most of our possessions from a house to a local storage unit for a few months, then to a new home a few hours away. Dave and the crews were very efficient both times, friendly and did an excellent job overall. We hired them to pack everything initially and asked for extra care with some very fragile artwork and pottery. We were concerned because we weren't unpacking anything after it went in storage and couldn't check after the first move. We had one small issue with one box we noticed after the initial pack, but Dave came out promptly and made sure it was corrected. When we did our own unpacking at the final destination months later, all of the artwork was in perfect shape. We had one small plastic accessory on a kitchen appliance that cracked, and they took care of it immediately without question. Both estimates were slightly higher than the final outcome, so very happy about that also. I would recommend them without hesitation. read more

Independent Movers - Unloading at storage unit - Movers Near Me - Rohnert Park, California

Dave was available on short notice. He and his crew worked so well together as a team that their efforts were a pleasure to watch.

this was a shorter move from Santa Rosa to Rohnert Park, thank goodness no stairs involved. This is my third or fourth time using Dave Alvarez and his professional team . The staff he hires are always well mannered and courteous in every way. Do you know how to create a customer for life? Well if you don't or wonder why customers don't come back ask the owner of independent movers He certainly knows how to take care of business and is 100% real liable especially as I had to change my date to move and he had to squeeze me in between trips, there was an open window we made it work. I will definitely be using them again in the future. I love that they pad delicate glass and items if need be, they experienced with all kinds of moving, they shrink wrap furniture to keep the drawers shut, and give you moving closets to transfer your clothing from one closet to the other quick and simple. i hired just 2 strong guys for 6 hours $750.00 Plus tips of course! They really earned it! outstanding job. ok read more

Independent Movers - Unloaded boxes in my soon to be dining room - Movers Near Me - Rohnert Park, California

See all

Dave sent out a wonderful team. They were Covid prepared, their work was clean, efficient, very careful and fun to work with. Price was exactly as quoted. There were no surprises. This is important. Independent doesn't have a bunch of add on costs. They brought wardrobe boxes that we used for free. Protective plastic and blankets we used for free. We asked specifically for insurance to move a Peloton and that cost was exactly as quoted. Also THEY WERE VERY CAREFUL WITH THE PELOTON!!!! I would absolutely contact with them again in the future. Moving is stressful and difficult. Independents team made it as easy as possible. read more

Independent movers were reasonable, reliable, and very cautious. I got stuck with being stood up by another moving company 40 minutes before they were supposed to arrive. I called Independent Movers and Dave said he couldn't make today but would be able to fit us in the next morning. They came in and moved us quickly and efficiently. Very friendly, reasonable , and took great care in moving everything. I would highly recommend this company. read more

Really appreciated these guys' help in our recent move from an upstairs 2BD apartment to a house. They arrived on time, worked hard and fast, offered to take extra stuff above and beyond the pile we already had for them, even took extra care not to ding the doorways. Couldn't have asked for more. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone. read more

I highly recommend using Dave and his crew to move you, they are prompt and very professional. I had a difficult move, 2 locations and lots of very heavy things, valuable art and they handled everything with care. They built boxes for my biggest paintings, and did things that were above and beyond . Dave himself come for the estimate, rates where competitive, they used 2 trucks and 3 guys to move all my stuff from 2 locations. Every piece came through without a scratch. This was not an easy move and if I ever move again I will use these guys every time. read more

Fast and efficient! I'm a disabled woman with limited help, my packing abilities are limited at best! These guys came in took charge, worked together as a team, fixed any and all packing issues, and had me moved within promised time. Nothing lost or broken! And thy even loaded my storage! Thanks Dave and team, seriously could have never done it without your efficiency! And garden ladies they can move plants and pots too! So grateful we're all back to a somewhat normal life and my dog and I are moved to our new home . Thank you read more

The team at Independent Movers was very professional and careful with our things. We purchased a house and had to vacate our current apartment with in 5days. The guys came and packed up our entire apartment on a Friday within a matter of three and a half hours and help us move all the packed items the following Monday. I hope we do not have to move for a very long time but when and if we do, they are the company to call. read more

I don't really write reviews anymore but these guys are too good to not. My first impression through email was that they were professional. Answered my questions. Got me booked. And then I didn't hear from them... I started to get nervous no one was going to show up on moving day. The guys were early on moving day. Not early enough that it was an inconvenient. Just that they were on time and got through all the paper work by the time we agreed to start. They get paid by the hour and walked through the estimate. Was reasonable based on my other inquiries. I had three nice guys instead of two because we started late in the morning. THESE GUYS HUSSLE. You'd think they'd lollygag since it's by the hour but that is NOT the case. They had all my boxes and furniture out of my apartment in a blink of an eye. Ignored the fact that I was just laying on the floor trying to get some sleep. Worked around me. Checked in with me to make sure everything that was to be moved was in the truck. Then we got to the new house. The floors were being redone so they had to pack all my stuff into the living room. Didn't miss a beat. Got everything out - arranged in controlled chaos. Talked and joked with me while they were working. Picked up my amazon boxes outside. Complimented me on my packing skills. When it was all said and done I paid 2/3rds of what was estimated. I tipped each guy and got hugs from everyone. I asked my husband if we could keep them. He said no, but we could leave a great review. So here I am. Worth it. Go with the local guys that are great at what they do. 10/10 recommend! read more

They showed up on time, were effience, careful and good to work with. Overal this was a very good move.

These folks helped us move into our new house from an apartment a few months back. They showed up on time, worked extremely hard and fast. I was shocked at how quickly they got everything moved while taking care to pack everything safely. Since they get paid by the hour, I thought they might try to stretch it out, but I actually had to tell them to take a break at one point because they were working so hard. They moved some reallllly heavy concrete furniture with no issues. It was a really great experience and the best price! read more

Really friendly and professional crew! They helped us move a piano for a great flat rate. They were quick, efficient, and careful.

We used this company for our move from CA to OR, which was not an easy task. I'd give these guys ten stars if I could. They're honest, timely, super friendly, and professional. They work QUICKLY and ensure that delicate items (we have a keyboard and some antique furniture) are carefully wrapped in moving blankets. There are no hidden costs and they took excellent care of our belongings during the move. This is a company that truly cares about providing excellent customer service. Make sure to give a good tip read more

Dave and his team are awesome. I called and got multiple quotes from different companies before choosing Independent Movers. Dave's estimate on time/cost was spot on. He called the day before to reconfirm. The team showed up right on time and were courteous and professional. I also really appreciated that they did not have a bunch of extra fees on top of their hourly rate. Other places I called would charge hourly, drive time, gas, mileage, charge for any wrap or wardrobe box etc. Independent Movers only charged for their hourly rate for the time plus drive time. They brought all the wrap and a wardrobe box etc. and was included as a courtesy. No gas charges either etc. all in all 5 stars all the way from the phone call quote to the end of the move today! Thanks Dave and team! ~Emily read more

They need to be more clear on their business page in regards to "long distance" moving services. They do not move out of state from California to Texas. read more

I can't say anything but great things about Dave and his crew. We just moved, and the process was painless. They took great care of all my furniture and loaded everything up pretty fast. They were friendly and very professional. Their rate was also very competitive, lower than other movers I got quotes from. There were no surprises once the move was complete. I would definitely recommend them and will use them again if I move again! read more

David and the guys are amazing!!! They have moved us 3 times and every move has been reliable & respectful. Sonoma county to Marin, Marin to San Jose, San Jose to a mile away :) With every move, our household grew and knowing we could count on the guys to PACK and move us, was very settling. All for a very reasonable price, but how can you put a price tag on an easy move? We bought our house and hopefully won't be moving anytime soon but if we do, we would call Independent Movers hands down. And, I would highly recommend them to anyone. Thanks guys! You really got the job done... again! -The Bentley's :) read more

I can't say enough good things about Dave and his team. They are prompt, professional , reasonably priced, flexible, and GREAT at what they do. There is a constant open line of communication while they're moving heavy items and there isn't anything I wouldn't trust them to move. We've used them for multiple moves over the last few years (when moving homes and moving a hot tub several times) and every time we've been incredibly impressed. We've recommended them to multiple family members and friends and would highly recommend them to anyone! read more

Dave and Michael did an outstanding job. Very professional, nice, on time, treated our furniture and home like it was theirs. Highly recommend them. read more
