    We had 4-person team w/ a 26-ft truck... the service was outstanding!  Thanks to Rick, Paul, Leo and Joe for the awesome job.
    Brian F.

    Their team was super professional and very flexible throughout the entire process. From the initial walkthrough and scheduling to the pack-out and offload, we couldn't have asked for better service. They communicated every step of the way and handled our belongings like it was their own. Thanks to Rick, Paul, Leo and Joe for the great support (at an even better value... 10% off for military too)!!

    Lyle was such a professional!

    I would give this company more than 5 stars I I could! I called the owner, Rick, this morning with a last minute request. All I needed was for someone to load my portable storage. He came thru. But more importantly, great customer service on the phone. Lyle and Shawn worked hard, carefully, and quickly to get everything inside. They were both thorough and courteous. I am going to request them when I have to empty the container! Call Rick, Lyle, and Shawn for your moving needs!!!

    Contacted several movers and piano movers via Yelp for a quote to move an upright piano from one house to another. Rick was quick to reply and provided a fair price. He was also available the next day, which was the best thing for my schedule! No hidden fees, delivery minimum or weird "truck fee". Easy peasy... They arrived ON TIME! Amazing. Will use again if I need movers. Highly recommend

    See all

    DON'T USE! SCAMMERS!!! MONEY HUNGRY MONSTERS !!!…read more My Mom has had this vault storage with this company for about 10 years now. Never had any problems until this year. Back in January they double charged her $252.00. She called them to let them told them know and to this day not response and no refund. Now to the really huge issue. Last month they notified her that is was going to be $350.00 a month to hold the vaults. So, she's shopped around and found a more adorable storage. So today 8/27 they vaults were scheduled to be moved. What I mean by the vaults. THE VAULTS THEMSELVES! So, they decided to open all 3 vaults, take everything out. Put it on a truck and move it to the new place in Poway from San Ysidro. It's gets to the new place and they new place calls and tells my Mom this. Well you can only imagine how upsetting this is. She calls Best Fit Move and they told her they took it out because it was their vaults. Well in fact they were not there. They were stamped with SDVS (San Diego Van and Storage). They go and look at the vaults and go "Oh yeah, sorry about that we have so many vaults here". WTH?!?! Then Best Fit Move has to drive all the way back to San Ysido to put everything back in the vaults and then drive back to Poway. So now the valuable items in these vaults have been doubled handled and who knows if anything got broken. Now here is the really upsetting part. My Mom put $100 down towards them moving "The Vaults". Was told $149 and some labor cost. Also, wouldn't be charged for the second trip. Well ... thanks for the good business gesture. So, they go and deliver "The Vaults" the second time. Then they immediately withdraw $985.00 from her bank account. No bill, no invoice, no nothing! My Mom is a senior citizen and lives off social security. This over drafted her account by a lot! This is not okay and this is not how you do business! I'm currently working no getting some of the money back. I believe they should be paid for their services. But, not $985.00 worth. Unbelievable!!!

I am leaving 4 stars because as I mentioned earlier it did take a really long time before hearing from anyone.

Truthfully, I am not sure what their damage control department allowed her to do, but at the end of the day Jesus came through. I appreciate his courage to call me back and make it right.

    DO NOT HIRE BEST FIT MOVERS If you use this company,…read moredocument everything with photos and videos from start to finish. We did -- and we are grateful we did. Our move with Best Fit Movers from Carlsbad to La Jolla turned into an exhausting, expensive nightmare involving damaged property, unprofessional behavior, and unauthorized charges. Major Issues We Experienced Movers were drinking beer and consuming edibles during the move. They unnecessarily repacked already-packed boxes into larger boxes, wasting space and increasing unknown, undisclosed material costs and extensive increased time. Boxes we had already sealed were reopened and excessively retaped without explanation. Furniture and inexpensive items were wrapped for hours despite us repeatedly asking them not to. Several items were damaged, including: A deep razor cut into our expensive dining room table Damage to an expensive art frame Damage to our buffet Small items were excessively shrink-wrapped, wasting materials and time. Heavy boxes clearly labeled for upstairs rooms were left in the garage because the crew did not want to move them. Two couches were also left in the garage after multiple instructions on where they belonged. No effort was made to protect the new home's flooring from dirt, water, or hand trucks. At the end of the move, they attempted to charge us nearly double the quoted amount. We were blindsided with almost $1,200 in "packing materials" charges despite already having nearly everything boxed ourselves. We were also told we were responsible for overtime and double-time labor charges -- something never disclosed beforehand. After paying cash, they still charged my credit card nearly $6,000 without authorization. What Happened We were quoted $239/hour cash pricing for: Two 27-foot trucks Three movers $75 fuel charge Double drive-time charge The crew arrived on time with four movers instead of three, which initially seemed like a positive. Early on, the foreman admitted no one from the company had visited the house beforehand and stated the move probably should have been scheduled over two days. We had 99% of our belongings packed and clearly labeled. We also provided specific loading instructions based on extensive prior moving experience and warehouse logistics knowledge. Those instructions were largely ignored. The crew repeatedly packed items we specifically told them not to touch, including landlord property set aside in the garage. They mixed unrelated items together randomly, including packing a desktop computer with automotive fluids. Things started efficiently but quickly deteriorated. After clearing the garage, productivity slowed dramatically. There was significant standing around, unnecessary repacking, and excessive wrapping of furniture we had specifically said did not require special treatment. The foreman spent nearly two hours wrapping and disassembling our dining room table to "protect" it -- only to cut deeply into it with a razor knife during unpacking. The Final Bill After a 15-hour move, much of our furniture and boxes were still left wrapped, misplaced, or dumped in the garage instead of the rooms clearly labeled for delivery. Then came payment. The crew attempted to charge us: Credit card pricing instead of the agreed cash rate Overtime and double-time labor fees never previously discussed Nearly $1,200 in packing material charges After arguing with dispatch and the foreman, we agreed to a final cash payment of $4,100 all-in, plus a $400 tip simply because it was late and we wanted the situation over. The next morning, Best Fit Movers charged my card nearly $6,000 anyway. We immediately disputed the charge with our bank and documented everything with photos, videos, and proof of payment. Final Warning We are now also dealing with damage claims, and communication from the company has already been poor and dismissive. If you decide to use Best Fit Movers, protect yourself: Take photos and videos throughout the move Get every quote and agreement in writing Closely monitor charges and receipts Watch how time and materials are used Do not assume verbal agreements will be honored In our experience, this was one of the worst.

    First of all I want to express how thankful I am for The Rock Movers…read more Being a full-service moving company, I needed someone to help me pack AND move due to a recent injury crippling me right before I was scheduled to move. Their reliability and ease of setting up the packing and move when I was not even able to be present and the timing was truly helpful. It was more expensive than I had ever paid for movers, even without the packing, and that's honestly why I could not give them full 5 stars. As a military member going through an honorable discharge to help my family in crisis while already injured myself, I had to empty out my own savings and my children's I had saved up over a 9-month deployment in the combat zone to move back to my family when they needed my help, not even sure if I could then provide for them. So while I really thank them for the job they did, I never financially recovered from that and I do ask Rock Movers to consider the vets or military members in San Diego and to complete a weight estimate for them to be reimbursed.

They moved me last year and I didn't even think twice about hiring them again for this year's move. That's how GOOD they are.

They moved with intention, care, and hustle and still made me laugh throughout the day. What really stood out was the way they handled every moment with such professionalism and kindness.

They are experts in disassembling, packaging, assembling and lifting, strategizing, Tetris-ing, etc. These two guys helped us move our 720 sq ft studio, plus make two stops (furniture drop off + storage unit clean out) before our final destination-- a 2-story house. They handled all of our furniture with care (especially when going up a flight of stairs with awkward corners) and even helped reposition some items after they had already placed it. It was really amazing to watch them work in tandem; they had excellent team work. We are so thankful we had great movers. Thank you, Easy Go Moving!

    I would give zero if I could. We have had multiple moves with the military and this is the first…read moretime we have ever had DESTRUCTION, POOR COMMUNICATION and INEPTITUDE of this magnitude. We scheduled a cross country move out of a 1300 sq ft house for situational awareness. This company delivered our belongs weeks after they were contracted and scheduled to be delivered which displaced my husband, daughter and our dogs. The company stated that this delay would result in a comp of a measly $400 which of course DOESN'T cover the cost of the hotel. The rationale the dispatcher provided to my husband after waiting for 6 hours for the delivery was "We are busy". I will post an update after this matter is resolved. All of this after reaching out (we have phone records to prove this) weeks before with zero communication from the company despite attempts to confirm, and ensure readiness and planning for the final offload. We needed the items delivered to a condo and to a storage unit as our new house is being built. The truck finally arrives on the second date that we scheduled (after multiple back and forth communications trying to schedule deliveries while my husband was working) and you can see just some of the evidence of the care they took with our belongings. Containers opened or broken and missing lids that were present and intact when packed, broken boxes, discolored boxes (water damage? How? Why?), open boxes that were originally taped closed, heavily and obviously damaged furniture.... almost all items covered in black charcoal like dust... The list goes on and on. Many of the crushed boxes are rattling. So we had my husbands grandmothers crystal shattered, my grandmothers antique table sewing machine broken, a mattress soaked and stained brown ( was previously white), baseball cards and comic books that were previously in great if not immaculate and in protective sheets or original boxes and packaging condition that are now warped and damaged, and box after box of wet and ruined items in the back of the truck. Mind you this is what we found due to crushed and open boxes- nothing was unpacked yet.... 2 local guys were brought in to help with the offload process. The driver didn't help at all and despite what I would expect to be normal did not have any moving equipment or carpet runners to help with the offloading process. Clearly our move was contracted out to a random guy with a truck. To make matters even more sketchy the driver asked my husband to sign a limited liability form after he began documenting the damages and voiced his shock and displeasure. This happened well into the offloading process. When I called The company I only got a scheduler who 'couldn't' help. When the truck was finally unloaded the driver again had the nerve to try to force my husband into signing a limited liability form. After the damage we have see without unpacking 1 box are you serious!!!! I would highly recommend that you consider a company that takes care in packing, provides and takes pride in offering customer service and takes more steps to communicate with their customers.
