"Excellent move! These guys coped really well with changing requirements and a more-difficult-than-anticipated move. They were honest about everything, and handled our stuff with care. They spent like 2x the time they expected to and still counted the hours in our favor. An item got broken during the trip and they were quick to point it out and they will repair or replace it. Always get insurance! There was no damage to either building during the move. I think that the dispatcher might have underestimated the scale of the job a little bit (I know that we underestimated, too, so part of that might be our fault), so the truck they dispatched for this move was just slightly too small so it was a bit cramped. That's no problem for us, but if you're planning on moving, maybe try and be extra generous with your estimate."

"Hey guys! Long time no see! Iâ m happy I found your company years ago, and my last move with you was about 5-6 years ago. Iâ m glad to be back! Everything was great and smooth as usual. I was especially happy to see Alex as the foremanâ he helped me with my first move as well. This time, I was moving out of a 2-bedroom place in Calabasas and am now excited to start my life in OC, Irvine. Everything went smoothly, and I want to thank you for the great service as always. Highly recommend!"

"Utilizing All Service Moving for the move was a very positive experience. They had good communication, answering several questions prior to the move and did a final confirmation just prior to the move date. As for the physical move itself, Jose, Abraham, and Alberto were polite, diligent, and careful moving the many items, and managed to complete the move more quickly than anticipated."

"We used Hauling Moses for the second time in a year last week and it was, once again, an amazing experience. We didn't plan to move twice in a year... but sometimes life throws you a curve ball. We had a great experience with Hauling Moses moving our entire 2 bedroom apartment from San Francisco down the peninsula, so we reached out again to discuss this move. Once again Tommy responded within an hour of us filling out the form, and Moses came down to take a look right away. This was a smaller in-town move, so we felt confident being able to move a lot of the little stuff ourselves. Moses gave us a very reasonable quote and we knew if we could move more stuff ourselves it might even cost less. They were even flexible with us moving our date up earlier with 24 hrs notice, which made the move so much more convenient on our end. The crew showed up on time, and with a great attitude they moved all the heavy stuff we couldn't manage ourselves. The best part: the move was faster than Moses predicted and so they charged us less. When do you hear about a company who charges less than they quoted?? That's what you can expect from these guys. Totally fair and upfront about everything. I would have them move my grandmother if she needed it. Highly recommend!!"

Moving questions, answered by experts

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. Costs fluctuate based on factors such as the container's size, weight, travel distance, demand, and fuel prices. To ensure you get the best deal, it is recommended to get quotes from at least three different companies.

Yes, it’s possible, but it’s important to be extremely careful, and always remove rocks and heavier hardscape items. Drain all the water from the tank, leaving just enough to keep the gravel slightly submerged to keep your bacteria alive. Then, grab a helper or two and carefully lift the tank from either side, supporting the bottom and keeping it level. If the tank is especially heavy, consider slipping plywood underneath to minimize pressure on the glass. Be sure to pack it so it stays level and doesn’t shift during transit.

Depending on your safe’s size and weight, we don’t recommend moving the safe without hiring professional movers. A moving service will have the equipment and skills necessary to move this heavy, bulk item safely. If you insist on moving it yourself, enlist the help of a few friends to help you move the gun safe with a furniture dolly.

You should consider hiring professional movers for moves that seem too daunting, dangerous, or involve large, heavy objects. The larger your home and the longer the distance, the more likely you are to need professional help. A moving service can take the hardest tasks off your plate and reduce the risk of personal injury. However, if you are only moving a few light items, you can save money by moving on your own and renting a truck. Keep in mind that a DIY move requires significant planning and time. A hybrid option is also available, where you hire movers just to lift and transport heavy items to your vehicle.

If you don’t have dividers, wrap each wine glass individually using bubble wrap or packing paper to cushion both the bowl and delicate stem. Secure the wrapping with tape and place glasses upright in a sturdy box, layering soft items like dish towels, crumpled paper, or clothing between them to prevent shifting. Fill any gaps with padding to keep glasses snug, and label the box “FRAGILE–HANDLE WITH CARE” to ensure careful handling.
