"Moving is a difficult, often stressful time, and I was so pleased with the movers and  this moving company!    I will definitely use them again, and based on my experience am happy to recommend them to friends and colleagues.
Making the arrangements for the move by phone was quick and easy.  They quoted me very accurately for the move, which i appreciated - no last-minute unexpected higher costs at all.
The movers arrived within 10 minutes of the scheduled time.   i was grateful they agreed to 9 am and not their 8:30 am usual time, so i had a little more time for morning preparations.
The movers were friendly, but also very professional and knowledgeable about the move.  They were the ideal combination of unobtrusive, but offered advice and reassurance when needed.   They were also extremely fast and efficient - much quicker than i anticipated, and had I been better prepared and had fewer personal items, the move would not have taken 4 hours. 
We had expected to have to hoist my sofa from the 3rd floor windows to the ground.   This would have been $100 extra, which i agreed upon during the booking process.   The movers determined onsite that they could move the sofa down the stairwell and not charge me the $100, which i also appreciated.
At the new place they checked with  me on where i wanted each furniture item, so they could set it up for me properly the first time, and were patient about moving boxes that were better suited in a different area, or the storage unit.
i was unsure how and how much to tip them, and so asked them in general what happened, and they were very gracious in how they responded, leaving it up to me, and appreciative of the cash tips received.

"Overall, my experience was very good. The person who helped me with my quote was responsive and personable. We did have some communication issues regarding some of the items we wanted moved. We crews that helped us with the physical move worked very hard and provided solutions when issues came up. The single recommendation I could provide to anyone is be 100% sure everything you want to move is on the digital inventory at least 5 days before moving day. The day of the move, I found things were missing on the digital inventory even though we talked about it."

"Quantum moving was excellent. The best mover I've ever used, and I've moved 9 times in my life. I highly recommend Quantum Moving; they gave me a great rate and great service and far exceeded my expectations. From my sales person (Dan), to the driver (Don), to the two crews who picked up, they were all polite, careful with my belongings (nothing scratched or damaged,) and respectful. Give them a call -- you'll be dealing with an independent mover, not some impersonal, national chain and you'll feel the difference in the service. I'm sure that they would be great for a local move, however, I used them for a move between Palo Alto and La Jolla. They picked up on time one morning and delivered on time the next morning despite a horrendous overnight rainstorm. (I would have understood completely if they had been delayed.) I've moved a lot over my lifetime, and this is the best moving experience I've had by far. Give them a call!"

Moving FAQs, answered by experts

You can calculate the cost of moving by evaluating your home size, the weight of your belongings, distance, and the method of moving. You’ll also want to account for moving company fees, cost of supplies, gas prices, storage fees, insurance, and more. To get the most accurate estimate for your upcoming move, get price quotes from several moving companies in your area.

Depending on distance and individual scheduling needs, from a few days to a week.

On average, it may take around three to five hours to complete the process of moving a hot tub, from disconnecting and draining it to actually moving it. The time required for hot tub moving depends on various factors, including the tub's size, accessibility, and distance to the new location.

Shipping a moving container costs around $3,000 on average, with a typical range of $2,000 to $5,000. For international moves, the price can be as high as $7,000.

You shouldn’t need to move out during a kitchen remodel. However, if it’s an extensive project, expect a lot of dust and construction debris in the kitchen and potentially spread through the house. Your kitchen will also be out of commission, so you’ll need an alternative plan for cooking.
