    Piano from my moms
    Mayjane F.

    This is my second time using OVA Movers for moving my mom's beloved piano and other furniture. The team needed to move between 3 homes.All this in a little over 3 hrs. Im in awe of their quality. Very professional crew (Sherzod, Rusian, Dosan, and Christopher). Very careful and clean. Definately worth the money. will reach out again for our next move. moms piano will need to be moved one last time. Thank you Valentyn for coordinating.

    They didn't have proper coverings for the floors - I could clean this but my living room rug was a mess of mud

    First,I'll say that it's been more than 2 weeks since I notified the company that they short paid us on insurance and asked for an adjustment. The fact they haven't responded took them to a one star. Now to the issue. When the team picked up our household furniture, we had a special concrete garden bench marked with green tape (treat household item). It was a special piece to us, weighed ~400 lbs (total - 50# for the seat, 150# for the front, and 200# for the rear) - Arriving at our new house, they brought 2 pieces of the bench in, but the 3rd, the rear, largest and heaviest, was not secured to the dolly and was not covered or wrapped, and fell off the ramp breaking into pieces. The team head talked to me, and though the piece cannot be recovered, we agreed together that the weight of the broken piece was 200 pounds, and insurance would pay $120. THEN, COME TIME TO PAY THE BILL - and the boss OVER THE PHONE , decided it was only 100 pounds and was worth $60. That is all the team leader was authorized to allow. I wrote the office a few days later, explained, with photos, and asked for $60. No word. Like most things, when faith is broken with a company, everything became more important. As a secondary issue, their pre-move promise was that floors would be covered properly but instead, on a rainy, muddy day which necessitated them coming through a large street puddle, they didn't have blankets or plastic to cover floors and tracked mud and water onto my floors and rug (the bedroom carpet WAS covered, part by me, part by them). Two weeks later we discovered a broken frame on a large piece of art, and missing screws from our bed's headboard. Altogether, we were prepared for some of the smaller things,but the lack of regard for our garden art - and the refusal to acknowledge that they didn't support their on-site team and pay the agreed-upon $120 - leads me to this one star review. I wish I could have focused on their polite crew (which they were) and their agreeable manner (which it was) and the willingness they had to help me put protective pad on the incoming furniture. Instead, I focus on their unhappy business decisions.

    damage to flooring of apartment

    Ova movers was recommended to me by a friend. Unfortunately, I will never hire them for their services again. I hired two movers and when I led one of the movers to my apartment, he complained about how the walk to it was far. I'm not sure how a customer is supposed to respond to that comment. Luckily, I was able to shorten the distance via the use of the garage of the location I live. The younger mover wrapped a lot of the items I had and it took him a while. It seemed like most of the moving was done by the other gentleman who was much older. Once everything was moved, the younger guy said it took so long and I responded with yeah, it did. It took them 3 hours to load a 1 bedroom apartment into the truck. Then, he said to me "why didn't you tell us you were moving into a storage unit?" and I was surprised they didn't know. I sent them the address and perhaps it was naive of me to assume they would check to see where I was moving my belongings to. Once we got to the storage unit, it took them an hour to unload and then I paid with a credit card. The young man spoke with his boss on the phone and then told me "my boss asked why did the job take so long?". Once again, as the customer, what are you supposed to respond with? I was surprised it took them so long too. I have no idea what their schedule or day looks like but I was extremely annoyed with the complaints the younger guy said. I also offered to buy them lunch and they said no, they had work to do. Then, I received a text asking for a tip for lunch and I sent one. I tipped them for what I was initially quoted for as I didn't plan for it to be more than that. On Yelp it says they don't charge for the truck or toll but they do and I have it listed on the quote I received. Regardless of my not to great experience dealing with the younger mans lack of professionalism, they still did a good job. Edit: I forgot to mention, they damaged the flooring of the apartment. It's coming out of my security deposit.

    Adilet and his crew did an amazing job. This is my second move with them and they did great work.

    Adilet and his two men crew did an amazing job moving my massive amount of stuff within the city on a busy Friday. They were in and out in 3 hours. Courteous and professional .

    Runner to protect my carpet
    MonicA S.

    Requested a quote and response time was super quick. My brother used them before and they were fast and responsive. However, stars get docked when a $59 fuel charge was added on top of my quote. I moved less than one mile away. I think it's egregious to add that. If my quote was only $357, why am I paying more?!

    Jad A.

    We went through Yelp to pick our movers inside SF (0.5 miles move), and based on the majority of reviews and discussions with Valentyn, who is very communicative, we picked Ova. Our experience was anything but great. From the beginning the team that showed up came with some attitude and argued about paying for TV protection, which was included, and then did not cover our floors claiming that they already have scratches. After 2 massive scratches they finally agreed to cover the floors. I just didn't realize we needed to beg for the basic agreement to protect wood floors. The original quote, which included a list of all our items and sizes, was for around 4-5 hours and we ended up at 7.5 hours, which included a lunch break on the middle. I think the business has to give more specific and better estimates, or start visiting the homes in person if they keep missing the estimate (other reviews that seem to be buried in Yelp have the same complaint) To top it off, they just seemed frustrated at drop off when some heavy boxes needed to go upstairs instead of the garage downstairs. So we ended up with our stuff in the wrong location. Finally when we unpacked they had destroyed the side of our mattress. I had wood chips and holes in it. Then the business owner claimed that their insurance covers items for few cents by weight and in a way did not want to file a claim for my mattress (or floors) as I "will only get $40-50 back." So their insurance is quite honestly a scam. Upon payment, which was again much higher than the quote, although we had a horrible experience we understand it was a long day and I gave the team a certain amount of tip and their main guy demanded that I give them more - when I opposed him he asked me to call the owner Valentyn, who insisted that that is not part of their business. Then I got sent the Venmo link from the mover so I can send more tips at a later time. They offered wardrobe boxes that were all broken, they had to tape them to hold few items. Just throw these. And to add a cherry on top, they packed all the wrapping paper and trash on the truck. Once we went inside, they proceeded to fill our trash bins and the Neighbors trash with all these items!! So we had an issue with our neighbor 2 hours after moving to our new spot... Again, the only thing that worked is that they showed up on time and Valentyn was very responsive leading up to the move and during/after. I cannot recommend this business at all

    Broken marble table
    Roman K.

    TLDR; broke our marble table before loading, offered us $34 reimbursement! Mixed experience, but major issues with damage handling. The movers broke our $400 marble table while packing inside our apartment (before even loading it into the truck). When asking for a refund, the movers assured me that Valentyn would make a reasonable offer for our reimbursement. Later that day he told me their insurance only offers $0.60 per pound of the item's weight - offering us $34 for our broke table. Please beware of this insurance policy! Reimbursements are offered by the weight of your item ($0.60 per pound). There was one positive with my experience, the employee Illia was very professional and helpful.

    Moving house!
    Joyce S.

    Tony, Dosan and Vlad came to help us move. They were extremely friendly and moved a ton of things, include some heavy gym equipment. What we appreciate that the they took care of all our items, wrapped and carried them in/out of our homes without damage. We would recommend them for any moves.

    kate s.

    I used OVA Moving last week and it was one of the worst experiences I've ever had with any service provider. ever. The movers were reckless and hostile--throwing my things around, leaving items behind without telling me, and screaming at me during a temper tantrum. When I got back to the house, I found they had broken part of my fence and said nothing. What really disturbed me, though, was how they treated my religious items. I had placed my Torah and a Hebrew book on top of my bags. Later, I found them on the floor with other things thrown on top, crumpled and mishandled. Whether it was ignorance or antisemitism, the message was loud and clear: they had no respect for me or my faith. When I called the manager to report it, he refused to take any accountability and called me a liar. Absolutely disgraceful from start to finish and I was forced to leave behind items that were very precious to me. Avoid this company unless you're okay with damaged property, missing items, and being treated like garbage in your own home.

He walked me through every step of the process, answered all of my questions, and even helped me find every available discount. From the very first phone call, I felt I was in great hands. When the moving team arrived, Sasha (Alex), Zhenya (Eugene), and Sergey (Serge), that's when the real magic happened. These three are like modern day Spartans: strong, precise, efficient and incredibly patient. They immediately earned my complete trust. I was moving from a two-bedroom apartment (Dublin, CA to Danville, CA) filled with fragile furniture, glass pieces, mirrors, artwork, and a massive 9 foot tall, extremely heavy mirror. I honestly didn't think it was possible to move everything without damage. The way they wrapped and protected every single item was beyond impressive. There was simply no chance anything could break. They completed the entire move, including carefully wrapping, loading, transporting, unloading, and placing everything exactly where I wanted it, in less than 8 hours. The anxiety and stress of moving disappeared the moment I saw how professional and organized they were. The service felt truly VIP, the pricing was very affordable, and the entire experience was completely hassle-free. If you're not booking this company, you're missing out. I highly recommend them, especially James, Sasha, Zhenya, and Sergey. They went above and beyond, and I am sincerely grateful for everything they did. Thank you, James, Sasha, Zhenya, and Sergey! You made what could have been a stressful day an absolutely exceptional experience. I will recommend you to everyone I know!

On the other hand, things got weird when it was time to pay. I didn't appreciate feeling pressured when they tried to tell me that a 30% tip was the standard. I gave them 20%, which I felt was a good tip and standard for a good job. I was also pressured into writing both a Yelp and Google review, leaving them 5 stars as they hovered over me.

So I knew no matter how long the move took and with the long distances, I already knew how much the max cost would be up front with no surprises.

The first time, I had to move from Union City to a storage facility in Elk Grove and this past weekend we had two teams going, one from San Jose to Elk Grove and the other from the storage facility to our new home. Pure Moving was perfect in all ways possible. They were professional, prompt, efficient, and super friendly. They handled and wrapped items with care and made you feel at ease that everything was going to be safe and secure. They disassembled furniture as needed and reassembled it on site. One great detail, they laid down plastic protectors everywhere to keep things clean and tidy where they would be stepping. And cleaned up all the plastic wrap/coverings, cardboard and tape they used while packing and unpacking. They literally took care of all the heavy - and even the light - lifting! I just want to say thank you to Paul, Nick, Toha, Dan and Symon for taking care of our move and my Family. Moving is already stressful but they made it Pure-ly AWESOME!

What I encountered was end-to-end excellence, from customer service to their excellent moving team. I knew our move would be a large one, so I booked a 26' truck and five-person crew. As the day of the move approached, I had lots of last-minute worries and questions and Sam, in Customer Service, answered every one and generally calmed my nerves, assuring me my move team would assist if we needed last-minute help. On the day of the move, the team arrived right on time. The foreman, Guillermo, assessed our situation and calmly confirmed my suspicious that we'd need two trucks (this my error, not OnTrack's). Before I could panic, he had contacted his team and we arranged that ours be a two day move. Guillermo's team wrapped our furniture and had the truck loaded swiftly. At the new house, we had a few of our family help direct traffic. I'd labelled every box with a color-coded room label and the team got everything to the proper room. On day two, Sammy -- part of the original crew -- acted as lead and we repeated the process. Here, a number of items still needed a bit of packing and his team had everything done in record time and -- bless them - marked the boxes for the proper room destinations without prompting. As I now unpack, I'm finding everything in excellent condition and couldn't be more grateful. We'd heard stories about moving nightmares and wanted to share a happy ending. Guillermo and Sammy were AMAZING and their crews were very hard working. Tips: my sister had a table of bottled waters, bags of chips, and other snacks ready for the team when we arrived at the new house. The team appeared grateful for the sustenance. We also tipped each person individually, in cash.

Half of the items they didn't even ask where I wanted them placed or oriented. And they tracked over my brand new rug multiple times no booties even though I was adamant about that before the move began. Used a slow, manual hand wrench to try and take a flat screen TV mount off. Maybe power tools would have been better/faster? Didn't have a door stopper... maybe a moving company has a few of those handy for jobs? 6 hours. Would not recommend, wish I could do this over. 6 hours.

I had expensive plants that were smashed, ripped, and taken apart. * Moving boxes were not taped at the bottom causing items to fall out. I would have recommended the company had they tried to not gaslight me. I take great care and detail in moving as I've done it countless times. The movers changed around my boxes and then didn't tape them causing me to have items smashed and destroyed. The movers tried putting blame on me. I didn't appreciate that the intentionally went slower so that I would have to pay more for their services.
