We hired Reliance Moving to help us move the end of April 2019. They must have overbooked that day, but chose to do our move anyways. We requested 3 guys and they sent 2, neither of which knew what they were doing. They were slow, one of the guys took at least 5 breaks that totaled over an hour. The guy who took all of the breaks complained multiple times that things were "too heavy". The truck was only about 2/3 full when they told me it was a full load. Instead of using dolly's to move stacks of boxes into the truck they carried one at a time regardless of its size or weight. We have moved 7 times in the past ten years and have hired moving companies every time. In our previous move we moved from Boise to Meridian and hired a company that sent 2 guys who moved all our things in one load in under 3 hours. It took the guys from Reliance Moving 2 loads and almost 7 hours to move the fewer items to our new house that was less than a mile away from the old one. They also damaged our wood floors by dragging a piano across them instead of using dolly's. When my wife pointed our the damage the guy blamed her and said she should have "put plastic over the floor". I called and messaged the company about the damage and never received a response. At the end of the move they tried to charge me more than was agreed upon and couldn't provide me with and invoice. It was clear that these guys were not Reliance Moving's "A-team" and I'm guessing they weren't even employees, but guys they hired for the day to help out because they were overbooked. If you're going to portray yourself as a professional moving company you need to employ professional movers and deliver the service that you advertise on your website. read more

I've generally had ok experiences with movers but a few bad apples give the rest a bad name (ahem, it rhymes with shmironman) . I wish all movers were like Cameron and Eric from Reliance. A few of the many things I appreciated...They were polite, and very professional. If they didn't know where something went, they asked. I know it sounds simple but a lot of movers don't do that. They did not mess around either. They were working at full speed all day. They were also extra careful with wrapping my baby's things so they would stay clean. I had my infant son and my dad was helping me with unpacking and organizing and they frequently asked if either of us needed help. My dad, who had never used movers and thought it was ridiculous that I was hiring people for something we could do ourselves, said "wow!! That was totally worth it!" I will use them for my next move without hesitation and whole-heartedly recommend their services. read more

My experience with the moving company started good, Cameron showed on time and the quote he gave me was good. As I have move often we usually pack most of our things and leave the big items for the movers, to wrap(couch, refrigerator, washer/dryer)My husband even disassembled our beds and move our furniture down stairs so that all it was to be move was down already. We had only the washer and drier up in the laundry room by the time the movers came. They come on the day of our move and started to move things in the truck, we even feed them pizza for lunch that day. When our furniture arrived to our moving destination I was here on the other end, my husband stayed at our old house since we move up state and he had work there still. As our furniture arrived we helped Cameron and the other guy to unload, Marisa, Cameron partner was here too. Me and the kids helped them unload a few items we again shared our pizza lunch with them. As I directed Cameron on we're to put my antique sewing machine I notice the one leg was complete off. I began to notice refrigerator was scratched and had indentations were the security belt is placed. Eventually all our things got unload and piled up in our kitchen, by know I have already scope our items and notice my washer was indented on the top, and a nob was not attach to the dryer. By the way the washing machine was purchased new in February 2014 and there was no damage before. Our dryers is gas and I do not know if there is damage, other items were damage and by the time It was done I had Told Cameron and Marisa of the damage. Their reply was "Oh!!!" I ask if they had insurance, and Marisa told me it was 250 deduct. Left it at that and told them my husband would keep in contact with them. Here is what transpired from that: (copy of their email to us) From: Stephen S Sent: Friday, July 15, 2016 1:38 AM To: Marisa Thrasher Subject: Re: Dryer top cost Marisa We appreciate that you wrote back. In life, we all take risks regarding who to trust and who not to trust. In our case, we trusted you and your husband to move our things up to Northern California. This was our decision and we are now living with the consequences of our choice. There were a number of things broken or cosmetically damaged in the move. We will live with a scratched refrigerator; we have repaired the broken leg on a table and have found a solution for the scratch on the mirror. The damaged to the dryer was so bad though that the top and panel need replacing. Your husband will know that this was in good shape when he picked it up and badly damaged upon arrival. This was something that my wife immediately brought to your attention at the time that everything was brought in the house. We did not bring a professional out to look at it because just to bring him or her out is $99 (I.e. service call). This was done out of consideration to you. We assumed that because this was your mistake you would do the right thing and pay for the damage. We are more than glad to bring out a professional to fix this but a conservative estimate for this will be around $325 (inspection, parts and service). We would really like to see your business do well. The course of action that are choosing to take with us though will eventually hurt your business. A company's reputation is its most valued asset.

Second, and most importantly, it appears that you did not employ a professional to properly disassemble and inspect the appliance, as you have not provided documentation from a professional repair company. In fact, there is a child holding the various disassembled dryer parts in the pictures you provided. We were initially told that you would ask an appliance repair company to come out, inspect a dent, and provide a quote for repair costs for that dent in the top (cover) part of the appliance. We agreed to discuss the issue after that took place. This is not what occurred and there is absolutely no way to discern what damage may have been caused by the work of a non-professional. Finally, we do not open insurance claims for damages totaling less than $150, even if we were to accept liability, which we are not willing to do. It is unfortunate that the top of your dryer was damaged at some point in the process of your move but without full knowledge of the original condition or value read more

Highly recommend!!! Cameron and his team were fantastic.. everything from customer service to packing, loading and unloading. They took care of all our personal items as if they were there own. We will absolutely use them in the future. Nice job guys!! read more

These folks are ROCK STARS. They moved our whole family of 5 in two days. No complaints, no fatigue, no problem to big, no hassling. Showed up on time, worked non-stop till they were done. BEST MONEY I SPENT. Thanks Cameron for making moving such a wonderful experience. Only one complaint: Why can't more companies be like them. If you have any questions about our move with Reliance please do not hesitate to contact me. I'd be happy to vouch for my experience. read more

These guys were awesome! They were doing a distance move within the state which required Ferry Transport. They were very reasonably priced and did exactly what we needed. I would deffinitly recomend Cameron and his movers and also would contact them again for future moves! read more

Cameron and his team are amazing! From requesting the quote till the end of the move communication was impeccable! Showed up on time and finished early ! Left everything perfect and just how I wanted it! I would highly recommend...thank guys! read more

They have the wrong phone number. This is also my phone number and I keep getting spammed with phone calls saying "is this reliance moving"

2 thumbs up. Had a friend who hired this guy and he actually did a great job. He was quick and reasonable.

If only I can give a ZERO!!! I wouldn't be able to rate their move because Cameron never showed up! He was apparently having mechanical issues with his truck but didn't bother to let me know until after I called and text him after not showing up on time to our appt. I text him 30 mins before our appt giving him instructions about getting through the gate and parking but got no response. After a few minutes of waiting for him to show up at 8 am I called him but again, no answer. I text him AGAIN asking where he was and it wasn't until then that he responds. This guy doesn't answer my call or call me back. He instead texts back saying the battery is dead and to stop calling him! At this point I am freaking out because I put my trust in this guy to show up on time and he doesn't bother to let me know what is going on until AFTER our appt and AFTER I contact him multiple times. Car troubles I can understand but it was the lack of communication and apology that is INEXCUSABLE. At that time I was so infuriated that yes, i told him I would have everyone I know give him a bad review. But who wouldn't be pissed at someone for not showing up to a job as big as this? Cameron was rude and unapologetic about this whole situation. I was completely shocked and disappointed at how he treated me considering his reviews but that's what happened. Luckily, I was able to find a moving company last minute hat has multiple trucks and communicated with me when they were on their way and even stuck in traffic. I usually try to support small and local companies but DO NOT take your chance with this one. If you want a reliable moving company go with one that have their own trucks and multiple movers. DO NOT RISK IT! read more

Great job moving all my stuff and no scratches or anything! Super last minute and really helped me out! Thanks cam!

Cameron and his crew were awesome!! Very professional and great customer service. They were able to clear out my garage and move it to storage on a Saturday. I would definitely give them a call again if I need to move stuff. Highly recommended. read more

Very professional.. showed up on time and moved all my stuff in one day. Highly recommended!

The gentleman I did business with was very professional. Packed and moved my belongings for a reasonably low price. None of the fragile items were damaged, so that was appreciated. Hopefully I don't have to move for a while, but if I do, these guys will be the movers I call! read more

My experience with this crew was wonderful. Everyone was professional, courteous, and willing to the job right. I will be using them again when ever I need to move. read more

Good honest guys help my parents move to their new place . worked great and did extra work at no cost! I would recommend them for anyone trying to do it ur self! DONT!! Get this guys to help!! read more

I'll be Updating as the move rolls on... Earlier this week I reached out via Yelp message to Reliance Movers, Cameron was quick to respond (called me within 2 hours of my message being sent) he quoted me a price for what I was looking for and it was all inclusive (truck, blankets, tools, tear down/set up and labor) I felt the price was dead on accurate and fair (if not a bit underpriced) We set a date/time and I paid my $100 security deposit. Cameron made it very easy for me to handle this. The evening before the move date, Cameron text me to confirm the time he will be arriving. The next morning he arrived 15 mins early and introduced himself and his partner and got started right away. We're about 40 mins in to the move and they we are nearly done loading everything. Just a couple TV, Bed, and couch left. The move started at 8am this morning and by 1030am everything was moved in to the new house and set up. Nothing scratched or dented. Cameron and Aaron handled business never once scoffed at the two staircases they had to go up n down and handled everything that was quoted without a hitch. Would most definitely recommend these guys and this company. read more

Reliance Movers came through for me! Showed up on time, worked hard, great attitude. 5 stars all the way!

This moving company is legit. The owner, Cameron and his help (Jake) show up to your place to move- he doesn't just send random people to move your stuff. He is there is make sure everything is safe and sound. Cameron was born to move your precious things because he and his partner will wrap and take good care of everything. Even things you might be neutral about taking, he will ensure it's in safe good hands. This guy has a brain for packing and maneuvering your stuff so it fits like a puzzle. We even asked him to go into our dark, spider invested storage and he was so cool about it. Almost....like....he loves what he does for a living.... Is this possible? He is gracious when fed to and humble about getting tipped but is a work horse when moving your belongings. Safe, fun and reliable and a real pleasure to work with. We were actually able to relax and enjoy our moving day. read more

Cameron and his team were wonderful! First he was quick to get us a competitive quote for our office move then, he showed up on time and worked quickly and efficiently, even though it was snowing and very windy! We'll be using them again for our next office move and highly recommend them to anyone else who's looking for help moving. read more

Excellent, professional, and friendly movers. The entire process was super easy: initial communication, the move, and payment. I used Yelp to communicate back and forth with Cameron, the owner, and he always responded quickly and professionally. He and his partner showed up early and quickly went to work. He and his partner were very friendly during the entire move and communicated everything that they were doing. They worked very fast but in a safe and mindful manner. It was nice to that both these guys got along and worked really well together - they seemed to really love their jobs. I've had very bad moving experiences in the past, but my experience with Reliance Moving couldn't have gone any better. read more

Reliance arrived exactly on time and worked super efficiently. They were very fair with pricing, friendly, and careful with our things. We had to move up several flights of stairs and they handled it no problem. Highly recommended, best moving experience I've had yet! read more

We had a Wonderful experience with Reliance ... they went above and beyond my expectations when they helped us with our move to Washington. Prices were more than fair for the quality of service. I felt like they took the time to ensure all of my items arrived to my new location exactly how they left. I would and do HIGHLY recommend them to friends and family. Will be using their service for my next move! Thanks! read more

Reliance helped us move last week. He was on time..knowledgeable and friendly. Really got the job done. I've moved several times and used other companies who were just ok. Reliance was definitely the best. Will use them again if need be read more

Cameron said he had a niece so he made sure to cover the items so they stayed clean and also unloaded those items first so my baby could be occupied while doing the rest of the move. read more

We could not have asked for a better moving experience. Cameron and Bernard were wonderful, and absolute pros. They were punctual, efficient, quick, took great care of our possessions, and had an unyielding positive attitude throughout (which was infectious). They had made our potentially stressful move from Bellingham to Seattle feel like breeze, and we are so grateful to have worked with such an amazing crew. We give them our highest recommendations! read more

Cameron & Michael are THE BEST movers EVER! They helped us with a complicated move from Everett. Due to circumstances, we had to divide our move into 3 parts. They were always in time, carefully transferred our belongings from a PODS container to their truck and drive it all the way up to Lynden. They were always professional; communicated with us every step of the way; trustworthy and personable. I would highly recommend Reliance Moving! read more

Very professional! Responded quickly to any of my questions or concerns. Hard workers and super careful with all of my things. Will definitely be using them in the future! read more

I used this service several times over the course of a few months for my business and everything seemed to be working well. Then I also received a couple of the broken down truck calls and finally no show and no call and no return call. I was using Cameron to move things as part of my business for a very large customer and this lack of reliability or communication almost cost me that client. This occurred several months ago and while I thought about writing this review, I did not as I had moved on. Last week, however, I received several large charges on my credit card from this company and left a message giving them an opportunity to explain it. No return call. Shocking. So we have now moved from poor service to fraudulent activity. read more

Cameron was fantastic to work with. He is honest, nice, and a hard worker. No scams, no hidden fees. He did not waste time, he would run up the stairs, walk quickly between trips to the truck, and handled all items with care. He truly cares about his customers and wants them to be satisfied. He takes pride in his work and his business. Highly recommended. read more

I used Reliance to move across town from the Barkley area to old Fairhaven Parkway about a month and a half ago, and I must say they were top notch! Cameron arrived right on time at 9am on March 15 and got right to work with his partner carrying all my heavy crap out of my apartment while my girlfriend and I did final cleaning and inspection Things. They were polite, professional, always asked how we wanted them to set things up when we were moving things into our destination and above all sought to make things easy for myself and my girlfriend. For the flat rate I paid, I got Cameron, his partner and a moving truck for four hours. They had everything moved well before then. Moving can be an ordeal... especially when you have to move in the middle of the week on a weekday, but Cameron made everything go smoothly. I would definitely recommend Reliance moving to anyone looking for a good mover in Bellingham or the surrounding area. read more

Reliance moving is the best. They showed up on time. Were extremely professional and honest. Helped my roommate with her stuff. They stayed and put together a very complicated piece of furniture. There weren't any hidden costs. They were extremely efficient. Best decision for moving! read more

Was very pleased with Reliance Moving. Cameron and Nicholas showed up 10 minutes early and worked until the job was done. Will definitely be recommending this company to family and friends. read more

If you are needing someone to help you move, these are the guys to call. We had a logistical nightmare on our hands in that the company called PODS did not deliver to the town where we were moving. We needed someone to travel to Everett, WA (PODS most northern delivery center) and take the items out of our three containers on separate dates and deliver those belongings to our house in Lynden, WA. I anticipated it to be expensive, a scheduling problem and a trust issue due to past experiences with other companies. Cameron was on top of it. He and Michael made a great team. They handled our belongings with care. They were efficient and very professional. They were on time and worked there tails off until the job was finished. They were easy to get along with and you could tell they not only enjoyed their work but also working with each other. We really struck gold with these guys and couldn't give them a higher recommendation. No broken items, no headaches and reasonably priced. What more could you want? Call them. You won't be sorry. read more
