    Took excellent care to ensure my favorite plant was properly padded, trapped in, and moved safely!
    Margie V.

    Amazing job and best moving experience! From someone who has moved 5 times over the last 8 years they exceeded all expectations. Arrived punctually, loaded and unloaded efficiently and were particularly caring of fragile items. They brought furniture covers and took great care to load/unload everything properly and got the job done within the expected timeframe. We did not have a single broken item and all plants made it safe, including my very large and heavy Bird of Paradise in a ceramic pot. Highly recommend for any moving needs!

    Pete's is the best moving company in the valley! I recently contracted Pete's for the second time, and was just as happy with their service as I was the first time. Isaiah and Santos were professional, thorough, well-organized and truly a joy to spend the day with.

    Speed Pack they crammed tons of items into including FRAGILE boxes which of course are completely shattered.

    ***Update*** Pete calls me within minutes of writing my review. Accuses me of lying on my review - said the time window he gave us was between 8:00 - 9:00 AM so they were only 2 hours late - not 3. Okay fine - 2 hours late is still late. Then he tells me the things damaged, my tool box, picture frames, damaged boxes are not very nice and that I could get them at a yard sale for cheap. LOL what does that have to do with ANYTHING?? Then tells me that because of my review, it is MY fault that he now has to fire his employees. This is the type of Business Owner associated with this company - refuses to acknowledge any type of responsibility. I could tell within 1 minute of this call, he was not calling to make things right so I let him know our conversation was over and hung up. Pete then responds to my Yelp review with his message below. Not one time during our conversation or during my review did I ask for money. The purpose of this review is to communicate my experience with using this company, their quality of care, and customer service. Original Review: 1.5 Stars AT BEST. Quick Summary - leaving out a ton of ridiculous and unprofessional choices and decisions made by this company because there is not enough room in the text box. Movers show up 3 hours late on moving day after having confirmed 2+ weeks in advance. (Turns out company tried to squeeze in another job before our 9+ hour scheduled day) Movers show up in a terrible mood because company told them it was going to be a quick job - (we are moving 3 hours away.... How would this possibly be communicated as a quick job?) Movers are now pissed and treating my wife and I like it is OUR fault the company they work for chose to lie to them and not communicate the job at hand. Movers treat our belongings without much care, damaging several items and disregarding the word "FRAGILE" written on any boxes. Customer Service Fail by Owner Himself - End of the day, Pete (the owner) calls to collect payment. I let him know about the damaged things and the 3-4 hour delay, and asked him what he can do for me to make things right before I write my review on the service that was provided. He decided that taking 5% off the rate was sufficient. ($100 off on a $2000 job). 10 Days later and have not had a follow up from Pete or any representative from his company for the damages. Still tip the movers $100 each. Santos was actually a good guy. Stayed in good spirits for the most part and worked hard the entire day. The Star is only for him and his attitude and efforts. Bottom Line: I would not give this company any stars for their customer service or professionalism. I would not recommend this company to anyone looking to move anything on time, or to move any items they care about.

    Our couch that cost us 4K was not properly packed the leather side done in storage it has sap on it??? Scratched

    Outrageous price for 15 minutes to move two mattresses. Go elsewhere. I had another quote for $99. Much better than $450.

    The were recommended by my (awesome) real estate agent. I called, had a conversation on the phone…read moreand was quoted a price. I rattled off a list of items that would be moved and estimated a number of boxes. My estimate of boxes was terrible. It was a one bedroom apartment and frankly, I haven't moved that many times so I was way off and that's totally on me. But somehow, all the furniture items I listed on the phone didn't make it to the work order so when the movers showed up on moving day, they were not prepared for the items to be moved. I want to state clearly that the two moving guys were amazing. I think the lead guy was named Manuel and he couldn't have been easier to deal with and he really wanted things to go well. Polite, efficient and everything I could ask for but they brought what was basically a Ford pick-up truck pulling a trailer based on what they thought they were hauling. But because they were amazing, they got more into the trailer than it originally looked like but not everything in the apartment. When we got to the new house, they were great at moving everything in. At that time, I got a call from the office wanting to settle the bill before everything was off the truck I guess. I was fearing a tense conversation but they were civil (and so was I) and we got it worked out. I was going to talk to them about another trip to get the remaining items but at the last minute decided the logistics of getting to the old apartment to meet the truck were too complicated for us and my son rented a U-Haul and picked up the remaining items the next day. So to sum up, I would use them again but: -I would want to see the work order in advance to make sure we were aligned on the items to be moved. In fact, I wish I would have written down what I had and emailed it to them. If you use them, ask to see the work order in advance. -Since I'm not a professional mover and have no idea how many boxes a move takes (we had the quoting conversation a couple of weeks before the move), I would hope that if I throw out a ridiculously low number (which I did) that they would question it based on their experience. If those two items had been handled differently by me and them, it would have easily been a 5 star experience for me and it could be for you.

    I usually don't hire movers as my family usually gets together to help . Unfortunately family was…read morenot able to meet the deadline for my move. I was in panicking. I didn't know what to do but had to move fast. All in a day gave me a fair quote and boy do those movers get it done in a day.

They sounded professional it seemed like they had a good setup and I was quoted for a certain rate. I was quoted at $800 and then they told me if it went over the allotted time which was 3 hours and two drivers and also factored in mileage which we had preset they would just charge me the difference. The movers got there just after 8:00 a.m. everything went smoothly we did everything as we had planned. During conversation the gentleman said cash tips would be appreciated which I had no problem with. We got to our end destination which was a storage facility and the unloaded and then they use the iPad to stop the automatic timer So basically they start a timer in the beginning and then they hit the timer at the end. Everything is automated through an iPad I figured this was to keep people honest I thought that seemed to be a good system and I tip the gentleman $120 in cash The end total was $850 because we went just a little bit over the time I made my payment and went about my day this was on saturday. Today memorial Day Monday I get a call from the owner who tells me that the men calculated it wrong but how could that be when everything was automated they hit a timer in the beginning and a timer in the end They called it closing it out Now the owner calls me and says I owe more money. I am blown away and disgusted and have to question everything about this company because if it was automated using timers from beginning to end and everything was pre-planned we did nothing outside of what was agreed to and I gave a nice tip this is what I call bad business Sadly for them this could have been many referrals for the future as I work in an industry where I have to refer movers on a very regular basis. I even took a bunch of cards and told the guys I would put them on my office and refer.

    I can't say enough good things about Edgar's Moving Services…read more We had just moved out of our home and realized very quickly that we had way more stuff than expected a completely full 26-foot U-Haul plus a loaded 20-foot trailer. I was honestly worried my family was going to be overwhelmed trying to unpack everything while I stayed behind to clean up. From the first message, Edgar was responsive, professional, and walked me through everything step by step. His crew showed up right on time and got straight to work. They moved fast, stayed organized, and handled everything with care. They even laid down protective paper so nothing would get scratched which shows how much they actually care about doing things the right way. What really impressed me was the efficiency. They completely unloaded the U-Haul and the trailer in just a few hours, and nothing was rushed or sloppy. Every item was placed where it needed to go, and they kept checking in to make sure everything was exactly how we wanted it. Moving is stressful, but these guys made it smooth, easy, and honestly kind of impressive to watch. If you're looking for a reliable, hardworking, and professional moving crew, Edgar's Moving Services is the real deal, I would absolutely use them again and recommend them to anyone without hesitation.

I needed 3 large and heavy pieces of nursery furniture moved from my 1st floor up to my 2nd floor.

Edgar cleaned up and hauled away the large cardboard boxes, styrofoam packaging, and plastic wrapping. I would recommend Edgar's services. Thank you, Edgar!
