    they walked away without accepting responsibility and without a solution
    Danielle V.

    I am still recovering from the horrible service that this company gave me after paying them an incredibly high amount of money for one trip from Torrance to Hollywood. My furniture was damaged. I had to replace items that they left out in the elements and were ruined and my dog and I were both completely traumatized and they've never offered to make it right do not use this company! They are so inconsiderate after the process yet so accommodating over the phone when you are giving them money. They ruined this apartment for me. I've never been able to feel comfortable after the horrible service they provided.

    Broken Williams Sonoma dishes, packed at the bottom of the container and they placed heavier plastic items on top of the fragile stuff

    I regret hiring SOS Moving. My belongings were handled carelessly, and my fragile items were not packed properly even after I clearly told the movers they were fragile. My Williams Sonoma ceramic dishes were packed with almost no protection, placed at the bottom of the box, and then heavier/non-breakable plastic items were placed on top. Many of the dishes were shattered. I also watched the movers drop chairs and slam furniture down during the move. The customer experience was also poor. When I tried to speak up or give instructions, I felt ignored. The movers did not seem to take my concerns seriously, which was extremely frustrating while they were handling expensive and fragile belongings. I would not recommend SOS Moving based on my experience. Future customers should take photos of everything, supervise closely, and make sure fragile items are packed correctly before the boxes are sealed. Furthermore, Karina is the employee I spoke to over the phone and failed to communicate properly in a timely manner. She spent over a week "doing an internal review" which consisted of literally nothing. I even had to call after several email follow-ups and she revealed to me that she had done nothing with my claim this entire time! WORST MOVING EXPERIENCE EVER, DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY WITH THESE LOSERS!!!! UPDATE: they offered me a measly $50 reimbursement for all the stuff they broke which amounts to ~$500, and they want me to not post negative reviews. I'd rather be honest about their shitty service than take $50 in hush money

    Ilvert ruled. They moved so fast and were so great with our stuff. It was a big job and they made it all stress free. Recommend!

    Absolutely the Best Movers! We've used this company twice now, first for our move from Los Angeles to Texas, and most recently for our cross-country move from Raleigh to Los Angeles and both experiences were outstanding. They are incredibly reliable, highly professional, and make what could be a stressful process feel effortless. A special shout-out to our moving warrior, Roman, and his amazing team for taking such great care of us. Truly top-notch service, I can't recommend them enough!

    SOS made our moving experience so easy! The crew was so great, organized and a pleasure to work with! The price was incredible highly recommend this wonderful company! Thank you guys for everything!

    Khalil and teammate :)

    SOS moving was the best!! They moved a packed house and offered everything, from wardrobe boxing to different boxes to buy for the things we hadn't packed yet. They were so hard working, and we are so appreciative they made this such a smooth process. Thank you team Jose Armando!

    Can you hoist a couch that is too big to fit through a stairwell or elevator over the balcony of my building complex?

    Yes, sure! However, additional fees may apply.

    I just need a power reclining sofa moved to a new location? Do you have a recommendation on a small job. Literally less than 4 miles apart

    They have a 3-hour min, I believe. So can they do it, yes. But it might be costly for 1 item. Call em tmrw to see if they can give you a quote.

    Is moving from Santa Monica to Garden Grove considered local or interstate?

    Do you do out of stage moves to Seattle, WA?

    I just need to move a refrigerator and two dresser drawers, does your company provide this kind of move service or does it need to be a full move? How much would such a move costs?

    They have a 3 hr minimum

    Do you offer storage between moves?

    Yes, we do

    Your site mentions storage facilities. I am selling my house and am interested in storing my furniture until i find a new home to buy. Do you have your own storage facility? or do you subcontract "storage" to another business. Thanks in advance!!

    Hi Flo. We have our own warehouse but currently due to pandemic it doesn’t work till March,1

    There will be a gap between the date we move out of our current residence and the date we move in to the new one. Will you be able to store the truck containing our belongings? Our belongings would have to be stored for two months.

    Hi Pete. For 1-2 days we would be able to do that. Give us a call and we’ll figure out the best solution for you

From the start, they took the time to walk through our home and clearly ask about everything we wanted to move so they could mentally map out how to load the truck efficiently. They were extremely diligent with protection, using blankets and/or shrink wrap on all furniture and electronics, and they were very by the book when it came to reviewing the contract and confirming details. I especially appreciated that they checked all electronics before and after the move and even had me climb into the truck at the end to verify that nothing had been left behind. The move‑in was just as smooth. We had labeled certain items to go to one level and others to another, and they followed those directions perfectly, with everything ending up exactly where it was supposed to, with no damage and no confusion. Their organization and care were obvious in every box/container they carried and every piece of furniture they placed. Moving is usually a very stressful experience, but Fito and the Pure Moving team made it feel manageable and even reassuring. I found them to be excellent in every way, and I would highly recommend both the company and this specific crew to anyone looking for reliable, thoughtful, and professional help on moving day.

They were hyper efficient and it's clear they care. Our move was not easy... We moved out of an apartment (2 bedrooms, 1 study, 2 bathrooms) on the 3rd floor into a 3 story condo (3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms all on the 2nd or 3rd floor (meaning 2 flights of stairs). From the apartment, they carefully took the bed frames and other furniture apart, and then wrapped all the furniture with blankets and plastic wrap. Once they loaded everything into the moving truck and arrived at the new place, which they did super fast considering there was only 1 elevator to work with and they were super fast at unloading into the new place. Once at the new place, they took everything up the stairs and reassembled all the furniture with the same care and concern. I was amazed at how quickly, but also how carefully they handled the entire move. They apologized (even though they absolutely did not need to) that they needed to take an extremely quick lunch break (maybe 20 minutes, but an hour would've been well deserved). Although I don't plan to move for awhile, I will absolutely recommend this company to anyone else who may move in the future. Proper movers is THE best!

Then the messages started coming in. I received 10 inquiries from various moving companies, but Prodigy came in first. You can tell that the 1st messages look automated, but Abby came in with a personal message as well and sent me the specifics to my move quickly. I had her on the phone within a couple of hours. I had diligently worked through all the companies and looked at the various price points and what it included. I was really weary on how fast things would go, but Abby said, for the size of myhome, she suggested 4 movers at $195. Since they also had great reviews and seemed very professional, I completed my reservation by the end of the day. Day of move: Not going to lie, I waited too long to pack up my office and boy, did I feel it on moving day. My office was still not fully packed, it had a lot of furniture to be moved and I was literally still working when they arrived. Arrival time was between 8-9 AM. Ivan called a little after 8 AM to let me know they would be arriving in about 45 min since it was traffic and they were coming from the valley (I was in Echo Park). So I started excusing myself from work and prepared for their arrival. Everything happened so fast. I showed them around the apartment: 2 stories and 1 level up from garage (2 sets of stairs) and then a long driveway. I had stuff in the backyard and the balcony too. I asked if they could put some furniture out on the street for pickup and they helped me out with that as well! I let Ivan know that I was still working on breaking down the office, so he said he would go there last... and they all went to work. All I could here was the plastic wrap noise going round and round. They had broken down everything! Dining table, Peloton, Recliner chair.. It was amazing to watch and they did it with such care. They were done packing up in less than 4 hrs (3 bedroom apartment). We took the drive down south and they beat me there. They were already unloading and asking where to put things. Not only are they movers, they are also interior decorators LOL. We did not move into an empty house, so they helped us move things around and place stuff where we wanted. On top of that, they rebuilt all the things they took apart. I bought them lunch from a Busy Bee in San Pedro and a neighbor even offered them avocados from her tree! At the end of the day, I couldn't find my bag and phone! The whole team helped me try to find it because we thought it got buried in the garage! I had put it aside in one of the bedrooms and forgot where I had put it, but I was so grateful that they tried to help. I was thinking it would be an 8-10 hr day and it turned out to only be 7 hrs including the drive time. They made a very incredibly stressful time in my life as easy as possible. I definitely recommend Ivan and his team at Prodigy

On top of that , their work order of WHERE to move my things was the WRONG ADDRESS!!! They dont really care about details and when they make mistakes, they act like your wrong and are rude about it. I understand miscommunications happens all the time, but even after showing her the clear emails which she confirmed herself in writing, she had no apologies. I have zero confidence in this mover company and cancelled the enitre order and will be hiring real pros. I have no idea how they got so many high yelp reviews.

They were friendly and handled my items with care. The biggest bump in the road was something that was completely my fault, but unfortunately, my sofa did not make it up the stairwell and had to go back to storage making it a very costly move as the drive time became much more expensive. They had really tried to make it work and sadly, my sofa didn't come apart so they had no option to even break it down. My only feedback would be that I had wished they had told me the estimated cost of moving the sofa back into storage as I probably could have gotten partway to a new sofa. Lesson learned for future moves -- make sure to measure the stairwells and elevator prior to the move! Thanks again Justin, Abu, and Nur!
