    Kenny and Richard were awesome! Our apartment flooded and needed same day moving. Incredible service, very efficient, and super friendly.

    Excellent experience with Movers by the Sea! Charlie, Celso, and Tristan were professional, hardworking, and efficient from start to finish. They handled everything with care, worked quickly, and made the entire moving process stress-free. They were friendly, respectful, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was moved safely. I highly recommend Movers by the Sea and would definitely use them again. Thank you, Charlie, Celso, and Tristan, for the outstanding service!

    Got 4 movers for 1 bedroom, living room, and office space. Charlie, Marco, Richard, and Celso were great! They got it all moved to my apartment within 5 hours and three flights of stairs. Disassembled and assembled bed frame and couch. Would use again.

    So thankful for Kenny, Orion, Charlie, and Clayton from the movers by the sea crew!! They made easy and fast for me to get the task accomplished. I called them, got a quote quickly, and they showed up on time and were quick and efficient to professionally pack and move all items. Very friendly and respectful crew. Wouldn't hesitate to hire them again.

    The entire team was very professional and courteous throughout the process. They made sure our items were placed back where we wanted them. All of our items were wrapped and handled with care.

    Thank you so much to Tristan and Orion for all their help and kindness. They were efficient and took care of my belongings well. The company was able to squeeze me in on late notice. I will definitely use them again and recommend them to others.

    These guys did an amazing job moving a ton of stuff. They packed the U-Haul perfectly and carried a ton of heavy stuff quickly and were so helpful getting everything organized and put exactly where we asked. We'd definitely use them again on every move.

    Can't say enough good things about our experience with Movers by the Sea. From the very first phone call to the final box being unloaded, the entire process was smooth, professional, and quick. The team showed up right on time, and they were incredibly efficient, careful, and courteous throughout the day. They treated our furniture and belongings with great care--everything arrived at the new house in perfect condition. What really stood out was the attitude of the crew--super friendly, respectful, and clearly experienced. Definitely recommend!

    Working hard! Unloading!!

    On time friendly service. Kenny, Mikey, Danny, and Celso were all fabulous. No damage like it was their furniture. Fair price. White glove service.

    Movers by the sea were super quick and professional. Fantastic crew (Kenny, Anthony, James, Mikey) that were kind and communicative!

The day before the move I received a confirmation call. Dmitry and Andrei showed up on time with the big white truck. Our one bedroom/ one bath upstairs apartment had 65-70 boxes in addition to normal furniture. The destination for drop had an elevator. These guys worked non-stop and fast while carefully wrapping furniture with plastic and furniture pads. Boxes upon boxes were stacked and moved out. The guys were friendly and professional. This was not their first rodeo and it showed. They were on a mission! We led them to the destination and they efficiently brought everything into the new unit, unwrapped and placed all the contents of the former home. 4.25 hours later and the moving nightmare was completed. Everything appears to be in tip top shape. They even offered to have us look in the truck to be sure nothing was left behind. Thorough and again, professional. We didn't have to deal with "sticker shock" and unexpected up charges. We have no idea how these guys can do what they do but we thank them wholeheartedly. Tips were deserved.

Their cash price was the lowest that I found, so I decided to book them for the job. They sent two movers, Pacha and Sheiban, and they hustled the whole time to get the job done. They carefully wrapped delicate items like the TV, and mirrors in bubble wrap, and made sure that other items, such as the couch, were properly wrapped with cling wrap so they wouldn't get dirty on the move. when it came to unloading, they helped make sure everything was in the appropriate room.

Peter was warm, welcoming, and professional from our very first consultation. He took the time to thoroughly explain everything, ensuring complete transparency throughout the process with no surprise fees. He was also incredibly patient and understanding regarding the moving situation we were dealing with, which helped ease a lot of our stress. We were especially grateful for the excellent availability--Peter was able to arrange a moving team for us on short notice. On moving day, the three movers who assisted us were polite, courteous, and respectful. They handled our belongings with care and took extra precautions when shrink-wrapping our furniture to ensure everything was properly protected during the move. Even in the truck, items were secured tight to ensure a safe travel to our destination Overall, the entire experience--from the initial consultation to the final box being moved--was smooth, professional, and pleasant. I highly recommend Packing Bees to anyone, especially first-time movers looking for a reliable company and a stress-free moving experience. Thank you to Peter, the moving team and Packing Bees for making our move such a positive one!

    The Best Move We've Ever Had - Start to Finish Perfection…read more We can't recommend this moving team highly enough. From the moment we first reached out to Peter to schedule the move, everything was clear, professional, and smooth. The estimate we received was accurate--no hidden costs, no last-minute bargaining, just honest and transparent pricing exactly as promised. German and his crew were phenomenal. Friendly, appreciative, and incredibly hardworking, they handled our entire 4-bedroom home with care, energy, and professionalism. They worked almost nonstop, asked thoughtful questions along the way, and loaded two large trucks with precision. Unloading was just as smooth, and they had everything loaded, moved, and unloaded in just 10 hours. What stood out most--besides their speed and efficiency--was their attitude. Not a single complaint, even with heavy appliances and toolboxes that other movers in the past have grumbled about. These guys were total pros: kind, calm, and genuinely pleasant to spend a long day with. This was, without a doubt, the easiest, most seamless move we've ever had. If you're looking for trustworthy, capable movers who actually care--look no further. Huge thanks to German, Peter, and the entire team!

    If you're stressing about finding movers who are honest, reliable, and won't leave you regretting…read moreyour decision, I highly recommend Sunshine Moving. My husband and I were extremely nervous about hiring a moving company. We've had a terrible experience in the past with a small business we found online--an auto body repair shop that did such a poor job on my husband's BMW that we ultimately had to take it to the dealership to have the work redone. That experience made us very hesitant about hiring any company we didn't already know personally. Ben, the owner of Sunshine Moving, completely changed that perception for us. From the very beginning, Ben was honest, fair, transparent, and incredibly communicative. He personally came to our home in La Jolla to provide an estimate for our move to San Francisco and gave us a quote that we felt was both reasonable and straightforward. There were no surprises, hidden fees, or pressure tactics. One thing we especially appreciated was that Sunshine Moving operates on a straightforward lump-sum agreement. There were no shady hourly charges, surprise overtime fees, double-time clauses, or hidden costs that seem all too common in the moving industry. We knew exactly what we were paying from the start, which made budgeting and planning far less stressful. We also appreciated the way Sunshine Moving structures payment. A deposit is paid upfront, half is paid when they pack your belongings, and the remaining balance is paid only after the job is completed. That level of transparency gave us tremendous peace of mind. The moving crew was outstanding. They were punctual, professional, careful, and treated our belongings with respect. We had several antique and sentimental pieces that would have been impossible to replace, and everything arrived safely. The team worked efficiently while still taking the time to protect our furniture and valuables properly. What impressed us even more was the complexity of our move. We relocated from La Jolla to San Francisco, and our new apartment is in a high-rise building on the 16th floor--near the very top of the building. Despite the long distance and the challenges that come with moving into a city high-rise, the crew never complained, never slowed down, and maintained a positive, professional attitude throughout the entire process. They handled everything seamlessly. What really stood out was Ben's communication. He sent multiple texts throughout the moving process to make sure we had everything we needed, confirm that nothing was left behind unintentionally, and ensure that everything arrived exactly as expected. It was clear he genuinely cared about making sure the move went smoothly from start to finish. Because of the excellent experience, we happily gave the crew a sizeable tip. They absolutely earned it. We feel incredibly fortunate to have found these movers and wanted to share our experience for anyone else who may be worried about finding movers they can trust. Ben and his team are honest, fair, professional, and dependable. If you're looking for movers who communicate well, treat your belongings with care, honor their pricing, and do exactly what they promise, Sunshine Moving is the company to call. We would not hesitate to use them again.

I lived at my last place for 4 years and have accumulated a lot of things over the years (including furniture) that I wasn't prepared or willing to move myself. Chris and Michael showed up early to set up the truck and was helpful. They packed up so many things that I didn't even know was possible to get packed (including my 48" squishmellow hah). The moving process was much easier and less backbreaking with them packing/moving things than me doing it myself. Only reason I deducted a star is because the estimated moving time was 3 hours but the move ended up being closer to 5 hours instead. I paid in cash to save some money but ended up being $60 short because of the over time. Overall, 10/10 would hire movers again. I'm too old to move all these big furniture and boxes by myself with friends.
