Quite simply this review could be condensed to, "do not hesitate, do not consider alternatives, when looking for a moving company, the only rational, logical, and acceptable action is to select Kyle, Steven, and their team at White Glove Movers". Out of an abundance of gratitude and overwhelming joy for their outstanding services, we'll elaborate a bit more. On the 1st of April 2020, we were the benefactors of a moving experience better writers than ourselves would use extravagant prose to describe the sublime engagement that was our moving day. Let's set the scene. We're selling our first home, and buying our new home, and then we have to do a 2-day move, so that the stars all align with the 1st close, the VA funding entitlement transfer to the new home, and then the close on the new home and move-in day. We're navigating all the details of this normally routine but still complex chain of events, and we have our movers set with one of the long-standing "local" firms. They were going to pickup on day one, store the packed trucks in their warehouse for two nights, then deliver on the 3rd of April, and all would be grand. We were quoted what was a significant, but relatively reasonable price for this service, and all was good. Then, disaster. Ten days before the move, shelter-in-place goes into effect (yeah, we're doing all of this in the middle of the 2020 global COVID-19 pandemic), and the established local big shot firm calls up to cancel our move and tell us they're closing down for the foreseeable future. What are we to do? A few choice expletives and a few frantic phone calls to our realtor group, and then we had a short list of alternative moving firms to sort through. This began a journey down a Yelp rabbit hole of extreme consumer reactions to what should be an ordinary evaluation of service providers. The options were split into two camps. Each moving company had a handful of 5-star "these are the best people in the history of humanity" reviews, balanced by a handful of 1-star "how are these people allowed to breathe our air" rants. All but one, a single unicorn stood apart from the cacophony of discordant evaluations. White Glove Movers received unanimous praise as 5-star awesome human beings. What were the chances? Were they truly that amazing? Did they "move" the negative reviewers to that great Yelp pasture in the sky? We're here to tell you the straight dope facts - as the kids say - the team at White Glove Movers is the real deal, no fooling, 6-star, out-of-sight amazing movers. Withing 90 minutes of the initial phone call, Steven was at our door, quoting the job. Same deal as those other birds - two trucks, 4 guys, one day pickup (at about half the price). Our realtor worked with his counterpart, got the details sorted so that we could move out and move-in all in one day, and we signed the deal and prepared for the move. Now we come to moving day. April Fools Day. Beautiful windy Marina weather. We're all dealing with Corona-panic. It's a crazy time. Kyle and his crew showed up on time, they had all the art to pack, the furniture to wrap, beds to tear down, etc. It's a 3-bedroom house, 12 years of accumulation, it's a bit of stuff. The team was outstanding. Not a wasted movement, not a bit of empty space on the trucks. Exceptional care taken with every item. They were fun, energetic, professional, and simply outstanding. Seven hours later, we're on the road to the new place. Same level of care and attention to detail with the unload. We were assured that at the end of the day, we'd be sleeping in our bed in our new home, and all our critical needed items would be unloaded and in ready access. Kyle and the team over-delivered. They even made a trip back to the original house at the end of the day to grab a variety of items we needed hauled away (but for the shut-down we couldn't get a trash hauler to come out) picked up, and took to the dump the next day, all at minimal cost and with an abundance of good cheer. The overwhelmingly positive attitudes by all team members from start to finish went miles toward making this long and tiring day of moving, all the more bearable. So, if you've made it this far to the end of our tale, we'll reiterate our opening proposition - you need a moving company - you hire White Glove Movers. No fooling. Kyle, Steven, Eric, and the entire team, we appreciate you more than we can express. Thank you, a million times, thank you. read more

The White Glove Movers moved all the contents of my home to a new home 3 1/2 hours away. From the first moment I received my estimate from The White Glove Movers, I had immediate confidence in their ability to move me without a hitch. Their word is their bond. If they say they will call you back they call you back immediately. I received my estimate within hours after meeting with The White Glove Movers. Follow up until moving day was great... I received email letting me know that they were ready to move me and that my moving date was a fast approaching, always with the message to reach out if I had any questions. When I did reach out with questions prior to move date, they were quick to respond. Every step of the way I was being assured that all would go well. Moving day came and the two gentlemen and that came to move me, Erik and Ronnie, immediately instilled confidence in me. They were ever so careful with my boxes and with all my items. They were quick and efficient... But most of all, they were professional, courteous and kind. All of my items arrived in great condition. Unpacking was quick! I was treated so well all the way around by The White Glove Movers that I would highly and enthusiastically recommend them to anyone moving. They made a very emotional and life-changing experience pleasant and stress free. Thank you The White Glove Movers... BRAVO BRAVO! read more

In my perspective, change and transition periods require good planning and a solid team in order to succeed, particularly during an inter-state move. I am so happy I chose The White Glove Movers! I am very pleased with the service provided by them for many reasons: Communication was flawless from beginning to end. They are technologically up-to-date providing all necessary documentation directly to your inbox. They displayed extreme care in moving my belongings logistically and didn't get annoyed when I interrupted to make "special request's". I felt they genuinely cared and that it was not just about keeping to the specific time frame or moving stuff. In my case, my interstate load was not ready as planned to arrive to the location where I scheduled The White Gove Movers were to meet me. I felt terrible knowing I was wasting their time. They made this stressful circumstance easy to handle by voluntarily offering to work around my schedule and come back to pick up the load when ready. The consideration and understanding they displayed put my stress at ease and despite being in a new town in an unknown surrounding, I felt reassured I was landing in a good place where I could count on being around good solid people. I highly recommend and trust Eric and his team. read more

We had a very small load, local move. BUT it was stuff we could not do easily on our own (Queen Sofa Sleeper and 60" Square outdoor table). I called a couple of well rated companies on a Saturday afternoon, that "Serve Monterey". For our needs coming from LA or Oakland made zero sense. Super excited when I talked to Erik (The owner). He asked when I wanted to move the stuff.... and booked me for the next day! That was the beginning of an excellent move. His guys showed up with a text alert letting me know they were on their way. They were courteous, conscientious, thoughtful and strong. The optimal combination in movers if you ask me. The cost was worth every penny. I will recommend them to anyone I hear of that needs a mover. I HIGHLY recommend them to anyone in Pacific Grove, Pebble Beach, Monterey or beyond! I have moved 8 times with professional moving companies,(corporate moves) and multiple UHaul moves. Only this and one other would get 5 stars. White Glove is the perfect name for their company. read more

This review is a month overdue, but necessary none-the-less. Erik and his team at White Glove Movers recently moved my husband and me to Carmel-by-the-sea. This was a rather stressful move, as we had lived in our Tiburon home for 23 years. From the first phone call with Erik to the final item being unpacked, the crew was patient, respectful, courteous, and incredibly professional! Not a single item was damaged, not a single handprint on any of our white upholstered sofas, and not even the slightest scratch on the floor of either house. Ronnie and Dorian acted as co-leads for my move and this made the entire process a breeze! They were always available and always able to answer my questions. The rest of the crew (Ethan, Gen, and Edward) were equally polite and hard working. Every step of this process was handled with great care and nothing was left to chance. If you are looking for a truly outstanding moving company, call the White Glove Movers!!! True professionals! read more

Erik and team from White Glove were terrific in handling our recent move from San Jose to Pacific Grove. I would use them again in a heartbeat, and intend to for a planned move we have upcoming later this year. Back to our recent move, I evaluated several movers, but White Glove stood out from the beginning due to consistent professionalism, price competitiveness and crisp communication. Our move was a bit complex, since we moved from a large house into a small house plus a storage unit. They handled this well by using two trucks, allowing them to segment the items going to storage from those going to the house, and then delivering there first. They were timely on moving day, had an appropriately sized crew of conscientious and hard workers, took care for fragile items and put in a 12 hour day to get the job done. We also had them pack framed pictures and some fragile furniture items, all of which they handled flawlessly. In short, White Glove lived up their name. read more

White Glove Movers had been recommended to me a colleague of my wife. I called an got a response immediately. Erik was ready to check out our place, ask me a few questions, jotted down a few notes, then left. I had a highly competitive quote by the evening of the same day. The next day I accepted it. Erik was highly available and tried to accommodate my needs and requests without hesitation. The day of the move I got to know his entire team. All great guys, in high spirits, competent, easy to talk to, very courteous, and most importantly, super fast. The team got the job done within one day. Was a ton of stuff to move, most of it not yet packed. It was a lot of porcelain; not one piece broke. I moved a lot in my life, but White Gloves Movers clearly stands out on several levels compared to other movers I used in the past. I would always hire them again, and highly recommend WGMs. Excellent job! read more

Erik was a sincere pleasure to work with during our recent move. He provided a thorough and competitive quote, and though another local company tried to get our business with a lower estimate, we felt that we would receive the best service through The White Glove Movers. Our instincts were spot-on, as our expectations were not only met but exceeded. Erik told us we could expect a professional and hard-working crew, and he definitely delivered on that promise. The crew was incredible, and worked nonstop on a hot summer day. They were professional, friendly, respectful, and the crew leads provided a thorough walk-through to ensure that nothing was left behind. We received the same excellent service at move-in the next day, and not one item was damaged in the process. We highly recommend The White Glove Movers! Thanks much Erik! read more

Erik and his crew did an outstanding job with our move from Southern California to the Monterey Bay Area. We contacted Erik with a rather tight timeline and he was very helpful in reserving the week of our move prior to our firm commitment. He did a virtual walkthrough of our home, and was able to provide a firm estimate along with some helpful packing tips. On the week of our move, all of the crew was very friendly and courteous, taking care to protect our belongings. They packed our household in 1 day and were able to deliver the morning after the drive north. Everything was received in the same condition as before the move. Erik's team came back after we were done unpacking and collected all the empty boxes. So helpful! We would definitely recommend Erik and his team for your moving needs. read more

Absolutely perfect service in every way. We engaged White Glove after a disastrous move by another company that left our personal possessions in shambles and the house we moved into a mess. Our WG team was composed of efficient, intelligent, professional people who communicated excellently and performed at a standard WAY above what we expected or were familiar with. Every member responded to our concerns with great empathy and knowledge. These guys wasted no time, and at the end of their short two day job we were more organized than we had been in months. Such a relief to finally be able to live normally again. We couldn't be happier and more satisfied to have them handle any job in the future. We would have paid much more for their services! read more

Had these guys help me retrieve and empty my Uhaul Pod. They were the only company I called who understood my request. They gave me a simple quote with an hourly fee, nothing like some of the other companies I talked to that charge a stairs fee or an uphill fee or truck fee (I didn't need a truck, the thing is already on a trailer). Quality: The movers themselves were great. They were careful and quick. Couldn't have asked them to do any better. Cost: Their hourly cost might be a bit higher than others, but the quality is so much better, and they don't have any hidden, ridiculous fees that I think in the end, it's cheaper to go with these guys than some of the other options around PG and Monterey. read more

We got a new couch from Costco and had two heavy, big, awkward zero balance chairs in the garage that we couldn't manage on our own. These gentlemen are great. They sent two young athletic men who showed up at Costco punctually to pick up the couch, and delivered it to the house. They then unpacked it, took great care to safely traverse our yard and place it in our living room and even put it together like professionals. They also figured out how to get those zero balance chairs out of our garage and to fit through the front door of the house without taking them apart. Super clean job and very efficient! I would definitely use these movers again. Great job! read more

I had the best experience with this company and specifically the team assigned to my project. They were so professional, thorough, and quick. Erik, the owner, always returned my calls and texts, was extremely available and fair. I needed to move a packed 10x10 space in Monterey, and move it all to a new storage 10x10 space in Salinas. This included an antique jukebox and 10+ wardrobe boxes. The 2 movers worked carefully and quickly. I received an estimate, but because of their diligence the final bill was 25% lower. I would (and will) use the well-named White Glove Movers any time I make a move. I couldn't recommend them any higher. Find out for yourself! read more

My partner and I needed to move out of a large storage unit to another storage unit across town. Our new facility manager recommended The White Glove Movers to us. We are both in our 70's and really needed someone to do it all for us - and Erik was definitely the perfect person to help us. Under Erik's professional and confident direction, the move went smoothly and quickly. His organizational skills are superb and our new storage unit is set up so nicely - we didn't have to lift a finger! We will be using The White Glove Movers in the future if needed and highly recommending them too all our friends. Thank you, Erik for all of your good work. read more

I am a custom furniture maker (Martin Dehmler Fine Cabinetmaking) and I needed two dressers with a special custom finish delivered. Erik and his crew are definitely professionals. From my first contact, I felt they would be thorough, super careful... and reasonably priced. When we arrived at the destination, they assessed the complexity of getting the large dressers up the stairs and made a plan. They used adaptation, communication, strength and care to complete the move without any problem at all. I will definitely be using their service in the future to move my custom cabinets and furniture. read more

Kyle got us scheduled for a Saturday home move with a couple days notice-- and then Dalton & Cody showed us as scheduled and spent 8 hours hustling! They helped our family move 4 bedroom sets, dressers, bookcases, dining hutch, and too many boxes to count! Both Dalton and Cody were a pleasure to work with, not only were they most ready for the work, you can tell they love the work and made it fun. We couldn't have done the job without them and are beyond thankful for this incredible service. Highly recommend The White Glove Movers! 100% Customer service 100% Work Ethic 100% Safety read more

Moving is such a stressful task, but White Glove Movers didn't make it feel that way. Yesterday they moved us from our three bedroom home to a new place in the same town. It was a amazing experience. They were responsive, professional, knowledgably, and courteous. They sent over a team of two people (Ronny and G). They worked well together and had great communication with us and each other. They were efficient and quick, but smart to go slow on the heavy stuff to protect themselves and to not damage furniture or house. I highly recommend The White Glove Movers for any type of move. read more

Eric and his team moved my mother and I from Campbell CA down to Bakersfield. This was the best moving experience that I have EVER had (I have moved 15 times in the last 25 years). Eric and his team were polite, easy going and extremely professional and took amazing care of all of our possessions including all of our antiques. Very reasonably priced and flat fee so no extra nickel and diming for everything. I honestly cant say enough about this company and I would have paid double for how well this move went!!!! PS...They even took all of our plants!!!!!!! read more
