    This is going to take awhile...

    My hubby and I recently made the move from Thousand Oaks CA to Piru CA. My husband has owned the 5 + 3 2-story home since 2000 and I joined him & his 3 sons w/myself & my 2 girls in 2009. We successfully raised all 5 kids, shipped them off to college, and now they are spread out around California (except my oldest who lives in Brooklyn, for now). Needless to say, we had a lot of stuff! I'm handicapper & the hubby just turned 60 yrs old (in spite of looking and acting like a man 20 yrs youngerI &I insisted we hire movers. As it was, he packed the entire house up basically by himself (with a little help from me) we managed to fill up 2 entire trucks ( in spite of countless Goodwill runs and filling 2 dumpsters before the move!) The guys arrived at the designated time and loaded up the 2 trucks in an hour less time then quoted, with an inventory of what they took all made up & for my review at the end. We feel they gave us a totally fair quote and when our escrow got held up overnight, their holding fee was a fair one. In spite of changing our moving dates at least 5 or more times, Aaron was always calm and assuring to me each time that it was no problem and that it happened all the time! I really appreciated it too since we all know how stressful moving can be! The whole crew was awesome! Everything was so carefully wrapped and the six men working on the move were all very friendly, capable and strong young men that I cant say enough good things about, but thank you so much! They got us moved in today almost as quickly as they moved us out! So again, thank you to all the guys! Meathead Movers should be your #1 pick for your next move, I 100% recommend them!

    Exceptional Service - Highly Recommend Robert & His Team!…read more I cannot say enough good things about my recent experience with Trek Movers. Moving is usually incredibly stressful, but Robert and his team made the entire process absolutely seamless. From the moment they arrived, they were professional, efficient, and incredibly careful with all of my belongings. Here is what stood out the most: - Punctual & Hardworking: They arrived right on time and didn't waste a single minute. - Expert Handling: Everything--from fragile boxes to heavy furniture--was wrapped securely and handled with the utmost care. Not a single item was damaged. - Fantastic Attitude: Robert and his crew were friendly, polite, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was placed exactly where I wanted it in my new home. If you are looking for a moving company that is reliable, honest, and does an excellent job from start to finish, ask for Robert's team. I will absolutely be using Trek Movers for any future moves!

    Greg & his team crushed it. When the van first pulled up, I was petrified that all of my things…read morewould not fit on it but it did. They moved my stuff in record time and took care of everything really well. However.... after the move, some shiesty things happened. They said that they couldn't take a credit card and would only accept Zelle, but charged me the credit card price which is $20 more per hour. The owner tried to say that there's some sort of fees, but there are no fees for Zelle. The difference was well over $200 so this is why they're getting three stars and almost got two. As a business owner, I can't really refer them just for this reason.

Thank you for making our move such a great experience!

    The hassle of moving was on my horizon all summer. Would I make the jump if an opportunity…read morepresented itself? Yes! Looking around at all my "stuff", I knew I was in trouble. It's amazing how quickly one can fill a space. I was at full capacity. Whenever I have a project, Yelp, has been wonderful in getting me the assistance needed. Elite movers was the first (and forever my only) company to request lots of pictures with all cupboards open, an approximation of cost and duration, and customer service that took the time to answer all questions. The move day went off without incident. My crew consisted of four strong fellas-my crap being packed left and right, furniture being moved, boxes toted off, things I wasn't taking headed for the trash etc. They were all done by 1:30 or so and headed to the new place so I stopped for pizza/soda for them. All boxes unloaded and furniture placed where requested. Elite finished their job by about 3:30. I like them less now. The remaining boxes to unpack seem to have multiplied in the garage like bunnies but at least they are in one place. Great value for the money and no stress with packing things safely! Give them a call if your next move has you out of sorts.- they won't disappoint. Thank you!

    Foreman: Jesus and Jose…read more Extremely pleased with services. Moved locally from DTLA to Sawtelle area. No issues with furniture being damaged. Everything was wrapped in blankets/wraps appropriately. They also took apart my girlfriend's IKEA bedframe and put it back together for us in the new apartment. Everything went smoothly. They had extra boxes for us to purchase if needed.

    Do Not Reccomend, be warned…read more I hired this company because of its strong reviews and was willing to pay more for a professional, efficient move. Unfortunately, my experience was the opposite. I paid about $1,650 before tip, roughly $1,800 total, and ended up with damaged furniture, a damaged wall, a broken TV stand, and an excessively long move. Two of the three movers appeared to speak almost no English, and the third spoke limited English and had to translate for the others. The issue was that the crew could not reliably understand or follow instructions. Several times I made specific requests and was told "OK, OK," only for the crew to continue doing exactly what I had asked them not to do. At one point I had to repeat myself about five times and finally stop them and insist they change the loading order. It should not require an argument to get movers to follow a clear instruction. I own expensive Stickley furniture and other high-end pieces and explicitly told the crew that several items needed exceptional care. I repeatedly asked for more padding and blankets because certain pieces were not adequately protected. On at least two occasions I specifically asked for another blanket, and the mover simply repositioned the existing blankets and kept wrapping. When the furniture was unwrapped, I found scuffs on leather, scratches and chips in wood, marks on my TVs, a broken leg on my nearly new TV stand, and damage to several other pieces. The problem seemed less like laziness and more like lack of experience, organization, and leadership. The time reinforces that concern. My previous move involved significantly more belongings, more preparation by the movers, and a destination about 30 minutes farther away. It also used three movers and was completed in about 5.5 hours, including double drive time. Based on that, I expected this smaller move to take about four hours, five at the absolute most. Instead, it took about eight. Everything except furniture was already packed, I had removed many fragile and awkward items myself, and I had reserved a loading area and dedicated elevator. Even so, individual trips between the apartment and truck were taking roughly 20 minutes despite the distance being only about 32 steps each way. I expected roughly $800-$1,000 plus tip. Instead, I paid about $1,650 plus tip. In my estimation, I paid at least $650-$800 more because of the crew's inefficiency and lack of experience. The most unacceptable incident involved damage to my old apartment. Near the end of the load-out, I found a substantial fresh gouge/chip next to an electrical outlet. I immediately brought it to the movers' attention, and they denied causing it. I had plugged my vacuum into that exact outlet and vacuumed the area no more than ten minutes earlier. The damage was not there then, and it was there after the movers worked there. Damage can happen during a move. What bothered me was being told something that repeatedly that, was plainly not credible. I contacted the company immediately and sent photos. I had to follow up repeatedly before being told the claims department would contact me. The following business day came and went without contact, leaving me to address the damage with my landlord. There was also an issue with the drive between locations. Before leaving, the lead mover and I compared Google Maps and both showed about 29 minutes. The truck then took a different route and arrived about 11 minutes later. Because the company charges double drive time, that effectively became about 22 billable minutes @ 200 per hour. The workers were personable and they did work. My criticism is that the company sent a crew that appeared inadequately trained, inadequately supervised, inefficient, unable to communicate effectively, and unable or unwilling to follow clear instructions regarding expensive property. I chose this company because its reviews made me believe paying a premium would buy professionalism, efficiency, and care. That is not what I received. I would not use this company again and cannot recommend them
