I had the pleasure of hiring david and his worker to help move my kids and i. They showed up on time were super friendly and handled all our personal belongings with care. They did a great job and i would without a doubt use them for my moving needs again in the future. Thank you again David read more

Excellent service on every level! They were highly communicative throughout the process to make sure everything was lined up and ready to go. The team of 4 that came over to move our 4 bedroom house was excellent. They were efficient, orderly, thoughtful, and hard working. Cost was very reasonable and absolutely worth every penny. We had the entire inside painted before moving in. There is not one single scratch or ding in any part of the house and there was not a single bit of damage of any kind on our stuff. I was really impressed at how careful they were while still being quick. On top of it all, everyone was super positive and cheerful, which helps with the stress of moving. They worked together very well and the whole project seemed much easier because of the way they handled all the challenges. Was hoping to get it all done in 6 hours, they did it in 5 and a half. Stoked! The total cost was very reasonable, especially considering how much they did with disassemble/reassemble, packing, and moving things the right way. I can't recommend better movers than Top Notch. read more

Top Notch Moving Company - Movers Near Me - Lodi, California

Great job! So, like nearly every move I've ever made, things did not go exactly as planned, but what earns these guys 5-stars in my book are: - great communication - great flexibility - professional, courteous service. If things don't go well with Top Notch, it won't be because they didn't try. In our experience, they went the extra mile! The guys made fast work or wrapping and moving some heavy furniture. They clearly had the experience to ensure our furniture survived a 600+ mile trip. We're planning to use them again soon and we feel certain that they'll handle our next need with ease. read more

This is a super late review, but we used Top Notch in September 2022. They were awesome! I called, got a general quote that was very reasonable and affordable. The moving team showed up promptly, loaded our items carefully. We moved from a single story home to a two story home and knew that we would not be able to move mattresses and our heavy appliances alone. Needless to say, these guys did everything with ease and none of our items were damaged. If we ever move again, we will definitely be return customers! read more

I think everyone can agree that moving is probably one of the more stressful things you can do. This was my first time hiring movers (after moving multiple times in 10 years always saying next time we're getting movers. Next time). Well the next time came and let me tell you I'm so glad that we hired Top Notch Moving! The guys were always hustling, in great spirits the whole time. I thought the whole move was going to take the whole day, they got us out of the old place and into the new place in 5 hours. They were very aware of the time and trying to get things rolling to the next step. If you need movers, reach out to them because I don't think I could ever do another move without them. Also these guys do hard physical work, make sure to tip your guys! read more

Contacted on a Tuesday night, replied immediately. Got moved Saturday morning. What took me several loads and most of the day took them 2.5hrs and 1 load. Very pleasant to work with. Extremely happy with cost. My wife didn't want to use movers. Now she said we will 100% use Top Notch again. Great communication. Work ethic. No slacking. Very timely. Local! read more

I haven't actually used this company BUT I was in a situation where I had hired another company which was supposed to arrive at 9 am, I called Top Notch @ 1 pm because the movers I did hire still hadn't shown. Well Megan understood my need and was quick to help! After trying to put together a crew for me to come that very same day they were able to book me for the very next day for my short notice emergency! I was soooo relieved. Manage my disappointment when the movers I did hire finally showed up at 3 pm! I highly recommend All in a day solely on their customer service and their willingness and availability to help me in my time of need! read more

This company could not help me BUT sent me in the right direction without any compensation. That unselfishness isn't available anymore but this company went out of their way without compensation. If that's how they treat someone for free imagine how they would treat a customer. Speaks for itself. Thank you guys. read more

Update: since the owner wants to talk about specific. 1. They took 2 breaks to eat and we provided them food (pizza to be exact) which by the way they left their dirty plates and bottles on the hallway which we ended up cleaning after them. Maybe don't run your mouth without asking your guys that question. 2. They did not carry everything 200 feet (only 2 couches and washer dryer) they loaded everything else on the back of my friends truck who drove it to the building and they unloaded it. 3. On the quote when I requested it, I did specify that they are going down from the 3rd floor and going up to the 2nd floor if you lack reading comprehension that's not my fault. 4. Your lack of knowledge of banking / doing business is not my concern, you're a business owner it's your job to know the ins and outs of how to negotiate payment types and telling your guys to me "he doesn't have a bank account under top notch" is bullshit because unless you ask everyone to make it out to your name you have to have a bank account to negotiate checks, make payroll etc. Again, you try to bullshit your way out of bad reviews by playing the victim. At this point if there was a 0 or a negative star that's what you deserve so a 1 star will do. Any future clients: just get put a camera everywhere so you have concrete proof otherwise this unprofessional "professional mover" will try to make himself look like he's the one that suffered. To the owner: please don't respond with demeaning words or telling people they're confused or some face saving response just so future customers see a nice response. Use the same tone as you did over the phone when trying it strong arm me about the payee issue (see below). The 2 star (deducted a start for each con) is: 1. The moves arrived a few minutes late , no big deal but I think my 95 year old grandmother could move faster than them. They charge by the hour so of-course taking their sweet time= more money. 2. The amount of chit chat in between items was ridiculous. I had to continue to point them at boxes to get their attention off of their conversation with a family friend that was there to help. I had 2 other people there helping and we moved much faster than the "professional" movers and even with the additional help it took them 3.5 hours (with everything already packed and disassembled) to move into a 1 bedroom apartment in an adjacent building less than 200 feet away. The family friend still gave the guys a tip at the end which in my opinion was not earned. 3. The main reason why I'm giving them 2 star. The owner towards the end tries to pull a fast one and get me to write the check so to an individuals name and not the business, I can only assume why. When I refused he tried to bull#%^ me with "I'm giving you a lot of discounts" not once did I ask or receive a discount and not once did I negotiate his price. He gave me his cost and I said ok, at the end he gave me the total for 3.5 hours and I paid, no discounts. Next time try not to insult people with dumb remarks about some imaginary discounts or reasons why someone shouldn't make a check payable to a business who was contacted on here. Also try not to argue unless you have facts about how things word (payees / banks) The positive things that I say about the guys/movers are: 1. They were nice and accommodating when asked to do something or handle something a certain way. 2. They did not drop or break anything. 3. That's it. save your generic/PR response it's not going to change my review. read more

I needed to move last minute (5 days prior to my move date) and reached out to Top Notch Moving Company. I got an immediate response from David, and he made moving really easy for our family. He sent a team of 4 guys who were respectful and mindful of our belongings. They were careful and efficient. David is a really nice guy and answered my phone calls when I had questions regarding the move. read more

Top Notch did a great job!!!!! Strongly Recommended. Juan and Jeffrey were the movers. I had a complicated move for my mom. The move was smooth. Jeffrey and Juan work fast, no stalling and plenty of communication. Belongings were wrapped, plenty of blankets available to protect belongings. No dings on the walls. Everything done to my satisfaction. Movers were very respectful and friendly. We tipped each $40.00 if I had more cash it would have been $60.00. Well deserved. Megan is a pleasure to speak with. The rate was fair and the same as other quotes received I promptly received a receipt. Trust me I've had bad experiences with movers. Top Notch is exceptional. read more

Definitely recommend Top Notch! My movers, David and Juan, were friendly and handled my belongings with care. They were on time and worked like horses nonstop during 100° weather. Megan was very helpful, responsive, and accommodating. Scheduling and payment were a breeze. Top Notch made my move as painless as possible. Would definitely use them again for my next move! read more

Top Notch Moving Company moved us from Ripon to El Dorado Hills and did such a great job! They were extremely responsive and accommodating. The team that moved us was very respectful and careful with our items. We would totally use this company again. I was nervous to hire movers but I am so glad I did! Great experience. read more

Called and scheduled David for a COMPLETE walk through. He gave estimate. I schedule approximately 6 weeks later, could have been longer. Original estimate was one day to pack and move. Using two trucks he rents from a local company. I had a very large home and asked many times " you think that's enough time and trucks" he'd say " yes ma'am not problem done this many times yadda yadda" fine I said. That morning had major issues getting the large trucks and they didn't arrive until 2 hours after original estimate. After over 12 hours of packing he realized he doesn't have enough room. And left items at the old house, good thing we didn't have to be out that night! disclosure about time: I had more things that I hadn't packed, again he said " no problem we'll handle it" ok fine I said. They left at midnight from the new home leaving trucks full of items and needing to get a THIRD truck to move the rest of the items to new house. They did digout the bed for us. Next day, another truck, now three trucks, and another twelve hours later and an additional $2250, almost doubling the original.. Let me add: I drove him round trip twice to drop off the trucks ( 45 min round trip, which he laid on me that night), gave him some of my personal items including a gun cabinet, some old but very good speakers, and fed the crew twice ($200 in pizza and sandwiches) and I still got stiffed an ADDITIONAL $2250... wow. It was midnight I was exhausted and just wrote the check. Stupid me. Positives: not much got damaged, a very high end sub woofer is damaged ( I didn't tell them because I JUST realized it's damaged, and a few i items that isn't a big deal) moving is hard on your items and I expect some wear, tear and damage. Cons: estimation was WAY off ... twice , I have text proof, I said " you sure two trucks is enough" again.. yep no worries we got this. Crew was getting very fussy as well. And they had a little pow wow around 9pm. And they left coke cans everywhere front the case of Coke's I supplied.I DO know we asked a few extra things like stacking boxes a certain way, because they just unloaded a bunch into garage it was a complete mess and we needed some order, but we were paying by the hour sooooo... ‍ His poor estimation Cost me dearly. Caveat emptor!! Two stars for nice crew, polite and owner was courteous as he asked for the extra $2250. ‍ read more

David and his worker were very courteous and they did finish the job, but the total cost and the time estimation were off and they arrived two hours after my 5 p.m. scheduled moving time. As such, they had to finish my move in the dark. The move was estimate for three hours from start to finish, but it took over four hours to complete. I paid $450.00 for a move two blocks away from my previous location. I did the same move almost two years ago with another moving company, and it cost me less money and took less time to move a farther distance, from Natomas to East Sacramento. I also did my best to help out and move items as well, because I knew if I didn't help it would take even longer and cost more. I know have a lot of stuff for a one-bedroom, and I did mention that quite a few times when David was providing the estimate, but he reassured me that it would still take about 3 hours with 2 guys. I was also a bit disappointed with the administrative side of the business... There was no papers to sign, and he wasn't sure if he was supposed to supply me with a truck or not. I also never received a courtesy call when they knew they would be late. Not the worst move, and not the best. read more

Efficient, hard working and generally friendly employees. I do plan on hiring them again. I have already recommended them to my family members! They were also very careful with my stuff! read more

Couldn't have found better movers... On a rainy Saturday morning, Top Notch was 1. On time 2. Prepared 3. Ready to work We were so happy to see our furniture wrapped tight and protected from the elements. Dave, Rob and Marcus handled everything with care. Quick to load and unload. Followed my wife's directions, and went the extra mile to put together a futon from Ikea and shrink wrapped a table leaf. Need a reliable moving team? Top Notch got the job done for us. read more

Contacted David at 10am if he can help unloading my 16' pod container into my house, 30 minutes later his two guys showed up and started getting to work! They brought their tools and equipment for putting together the items you are moving. Multi tasking hard-working professionals, local to the area, great conversations and tips to what's around, and a great sense of humor, the exact type you want to be helping you with your moving. I highly recommend Top Notch Moving for your packing/moving projects. read more

Today was the third time I've worked with David and his crew over the last five years, and this definitely won't be the last! (I know, I really need to settle down somewhere...) I appreciate working with a family business because it truly makes all the difference. These guys are just NICE. I don't know how else to explain it. They never complained about anything and somehow managed to keep a smile on their faces even though I had some pretty heavy boxes to lift up a flight of stairs. My belongings were wrapped and packed into their truck beautifully; these guys really know how to play a game of Tetris with your boxes! You really cannot find another moving company that will treat you like family. Seriously, I can't stress how nice these guys are. I never once felt like I was inconveniencing them. Don't even think about using any other company. Communication was prompt, pricing was definitely fair, and our moving anxiety was significantly reduced, thanks to these guys! Did I mention they were the nicest guys ever? :) read more

David and his crew were great! They were able to squeeze a short notice move in and still gave me a great rate. They showed up on time and turned right to. Wrapped everything up and had it moved carefully. Excellent communications and courteous service. Very easy to work with. Their professional assessments and eye on safety was worth every dime. You could tell that they enjoyed their job and the company of their coworkers. If I move again (God forbid) I will be calling them first thing. read more

David and his crew were very professional and accommodating. They worked for our schedule. I would highly recommend them!

My family and I highly recommend this guys !! They helped us out moving from a 2 bedroom apartment 2nd floor, to a 3 bedroom house. They were very careful with our furniture and they were prepared with material to prevent damage on the furniture. read more

These guys are great! At the time I needed someone to come the next morning and they were able to do that for me. They were on time, professional, hard working, easy to talk to, and they were careful with my things. I think that I got very lucky to have had them help me move. I highly recommend this company, they're top notch! UPDATE: I went to my storage unit yesterday, it was the first time that I had been there since these guys helped me move. On the day of the move, David kept telling me to go sit down and relax while they loaded up the truck with my stuff, but I didn't. By the time we got to my storage, I was pretty tired so I sat down and relaxed while they unloaded the truck into my unit. I had already moved most of my things to storage during the previous week, so what they did was move the bigger things that wouldn't fit in my my car, barely one load, only took about an hour and a half. When they were finished, I walked down the hall with them to lock up my unit. When we got there, I was surprised to see that it was filled all the way to the door. I thought this last load of my stuff must have taken up the rest of the unit. Well I was wrong. Yesterday, after wrestling with two recliners (one upside down on top of the other) and a futon frame to get inside, there was more space! What it looks like they actually did was just throw everything into the unit, literally, then threw a big rolled up rug on top of it all. Then they blocked the mess with big pieces of furniture and a couple big boxes. I couldn't believe what I saw. There were upside down boxes that had emptied onto the floor. I saw a lid to my Christmas keepsakes with no box, and so much more. I couldn't get to most of it because the way they threw everything in there created a safety hazard. Now I'm going to have to get somebody else to help undo what they did. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY. UPDATE #2: I want to be fair to all and change my review to 2 stars because they were able to come and move the last of my stuff the morning after contacting them. Although David is not a very honest person, he was friendly and easy to talk to. They showed up in a U-haul truck, so I asked David and his helper to stop moving my things into the truck until he showed me proof they were a legit company, they didn't stop. While his helper continued loading my things into the truck, David said his business license was #4204 and had me talk to a woman (his wife?) on the phone, and she convinced me they were a real company. They are very hard workers but were not careful with my things and several items were broken due to the way they loaded them into my storage unit. I wasn't given a receipt or invoice until after my second review when David contacted me about it, and I had to ask for it. I should have researched them better before hiring them, but that's what I get for trusting YELP to do it for me, and NO you don't have to have a business license to advertise your "company" on YELP. read more

Top Notch Moving Company - David, this is how it looked after I had to move several large things just to get a look inside. - Movers Near Me - Lodi, California

See all

Overall, great experience with Top Notch Moving Company. Megan was very responsive with providing the quote and scheduling the move. Andrew and Robert were really great movers. Both were extremely professional and hard working. Furniture was all wrapped and prepped prior to the move. All furniture arrived and unloaded without any damage. Pricing was very reasonable. Overall. Very happy with my experience and would highly recommend them. read more

Top Notch cancelled on me 15 minutes prior to the agreed upon start time. The owner called and informed me that his only 2 available movers did not show up for work and he had no other employees to help me. He was very apologetic but had no solution. I hate to leave a negative review on a small business but it's important for customers to be aware that this company is unreliable because they have no back up employees. This created a significant hardship for me including additional costs for my u-haul having to be extended another full day. I was completely stranded and had to move myself. I am very disappointed and will not recommend Top Notch to others. read more

If I could give them a negative I would. They were horrible. They broke and destroyed so much of my furniture and still have not taken care of the damages. The owner David is a real piece of work he lies to get your business but takes no responsibility when things are damaged. I'm just sick about these damages and want to make sure other people are aware of the deceitful practices of this business man. ***you replying to my review is nothing but your bit of marketing yourself to be a nice guy. You were given several opportunities to rectify the situation and instead you blocked the calls. You did not take care of business David. And don't even pull that crap that you do not recall who I am because we have had some heated words. So please make me a liar and do the right thing so I can change my review. But until then you are just going to be another one of those bad businesses that we had to take it up the butt for. Karma is a bitch man that's all I have to say. Look at your phone and all our messages back and forth. ### Obviously everyone is not happy and yes you have lied because you did not pay for the losses or damage to expensive furniture. As a matter of fact you wanted to come fix it yourself. You are not a furniture repairman and certainly not going to let you mess up very expensive furniture even more. You broke and damaged 5 different items. Clearly you have cheap help that are not trained for this job. I will say that you totally misjudged the time it would take them and they did work like dogs. $@$@ There you go! I did not want you to fix it so you decided that was it. You need to pay for a 3rd party to fix the furniture and pay for the complete loss of the other items. You are a bad business man and your word is no good. So make things right with your customers or eventually you won't have any. read more

The Moving Company that Goes the Extra Mile. My Mother and I could not be more pleased with Top Notch Moving Company. David and Daniel are incredibly courteous and professional, not mention really strong. We had several cumbersome and heavy pieces of furniture and they moved them with ease, and one even needed to be moved down a flight of stairs. What an awesome job! Our move was two fold, moving furniture within our home, and loading and unloading an entire storage unit, into our home. It was a good size job for two guys, but they made it look easy, and got in done in less time than we had estimated. David and Daniel even took the time to returned to our home, after they had left and we had settled up, to help us out, when we discovered we couldn't rearrange a large table on our own. They even showed us a "trick" to moving the table on our own, the next time. In our eyes, that's going the extra mile - and then some. We highly recommend Top Notch Moving to anyone who wants quality moving services from a phenomenal, family owned business. They obviously value their customers, know the meaning of good communication, and know what it takes to go the extra mile. Amazing! Thanks guys! We'll definitely hire you again when we need to! read more

Top Notch Moving Company lives up to their name. I hired them last minute on a saqFriday and they came on time on Saturday. Where we had another company (Pete) who committed to us on a Thursday for a Friday but never showed up. The movers were excellent. They carefully wrapped each piece of our furniture. They assess the vans and ensure nothing would get damage when the vans are moving. I would hire them to do all my moving in the future. read more

This is our 2nd time hiring them, they are the best. 1st time was moving to an apartment in Lodi (2nd floor) then this latest one was to our newly bought home in Sac. They are friendly, professional, and they wrap your furniture for you and put paddings on fragile ones. Highly recommend them! read more

David and his associates at Top Notch not only made my move from Lodi to the Bay Area effortless, but took away a great deal of anxiety that I had been feeling. Being a teacher who just started their Fall Break, moving was the last thing I wanted to worry about. With one call, David took care of everything to the point of having me moved just hours after speaking with him on the phone, and at a reasonable price, one might add. I can now enjoy my vacation without the fear of moving hanging over my head, in addition to being in my newly furnished apartment in beautiful Oakland. Pros: Expedient moving Fairly priced Excellent and honest customer service! read more

Very reliable and affordable moving company. David called me same day and communicates very accurately and keeps his word. Daniel and Marcus were my movers who arrived on time and ready to work and had great professionalism and positive attitudes the whole time. Movers took approximately one hour and a half to load up our 2/1 bath home (14ft. Truck) and only took an hour to unload. We will definitely be using Top Notch again. read more

If you're looking to ease some stress out of your life during the moving process then without a doubt call Top Notch Moving Company. These guys know what they are doing from protecting your furniture to loading and unloading in a timely manner. The best part of my experience was enjoying the camaraderie among the gentlemen. And gentlemen they were indeed. Extremely polite and attentive to helping me in any way possible. They moved my son and his family a few months ago. They were very happy as well. I moved from another city. When I move again, I'll be giving them a call. Thanks guys! You were fantastic and very much appreciated! read more

I can't speak any more highly of Top Notch. David responded to my request right away and was able to fit me in the next day. David and Andrew showed up on time to load up the truck from a garage in Stockton to a 2nd floor apartment in Midtown Sac, with no hesitation! They even helped shrink wrap and tape up some boxes that I had done a horrible job with. The two gentlemen were insanely nice and courteous. They treated my belongings with the utmost care so I had nothing to worry about! I've moved a million times, all throughout California, and by far the guys at Top Notch have been the best. If I move again, I would only trust my family's stuff with David and his team! Thanks for a pleasurable moving experience :) read more

Top Notch is an excellent moving company. David was quick in responding for a quote and was very good at communicating. The day of the move Tom and Alphonso showed up right on time. They were friendly and hard workers. They packed that truck like true movers and made sure every piece of furniture was wrapped. Most definitely if I have to move again I will be calling them. read more

This is a delayed review since David and Top Notch Moving moved us from northern California to Reno/Sparks NV area. David was awesome to work with. When he tells you that he doesn't want you to worry about your move, he delivers on that promise. We had a hellish closing on our home due to downstream parties not being ready. We had to postpone David several times and each time he assured me that they would be there for us when all properties closed and we were cleared to move. And he delivered again on his promise. They loaded, moved and unloaded our entire 2,700 sq ft home from Orangevale, CA to Sparks, NV in less than nine hours. Wow! The Top Notch Moving team wrapped all my furniture and everything made it to the new house with no damage. I was impressed with how much care the team took in wrapping and protecting our furniture and appliances. I have moved more times in my life than I care to admit, but this move from Top Notch Moving was by far the best moving experience I've ever had!!! Thank you, David, for being a man of your word! read more

David is great! Responded to my inquiry right away with a phone conversation and price quote. He was thorough and very clear. On moving day, they showed up on time and ready to go. They moved my apartment into the moving van with speed and care. They wrapped up the breakables and loaded the van in a way that nothing was going to move. I was so impressed! Not one thing moved in transit. I absolutely recommend Top Notch to anyone needing help. You won't be disappointed! read more

I would hire them again and refer them to friends, etc., We had 2200 sq ft house and moved a couple miles away, it was $625 for the first 3 hours and we went over a hour and a half so not bad. Stay on the guys and keep them moving with help, things went smoothly except for our big fridge but that's expected. Nothing was broke and arrived safely. Only issue we had was they were almost a hour late but they answered my text messages and kept me informed. These boys work hard, we fed them pizza after and off they went to another job after ours! We had no issues or problems. read more

Just hired Top Notch to help load a trailer for our move across country. David and his team were courteous and responsive. Very impressed with the personal attention I got all along the way. I would hire them again. read more

I was looking for movers four days before my move and I decided to interview three different companies and I am sooooo glad I chose Top Notch Moving Company! David was so easy to speak to. He got back to me very quickly and gave me all the information I needed which I found was difficult to get from other places I spoke to. He also gave discounts based on different things which helped with our move. Moving is already a very stressful time, but David truly made sure our needs were met while also trying to help us with our budget. Today was the big day and David and his team made it exactly on time. From the get go, he, Juan, and Ky were so polite, easy to speak to, and very hard working. I truly could not have asked for a better and nicer group of people to help us with such a short time frame to move. I honestly felt like I was moving with people I've already known because talking to them was so easy. I had no feelings of hesitation or fear. I knew all my items were being taken care of with extreme care. Thank you so much for your hard work!! It did not go unnoticed. read more

This is an amazing moving company. The employees work hard and are very respectful. Even if there is a minor issue you can call and they will take care of it. They work by the hour but they certainly don't move like it. They worked really hard for 7 hours for me and I would hire them again with any move I have. Thank you for the amazing customer service and hard work. read more
