Lets Get Moving & Storage

e, this people, on a small and lonely planet
Traveling through casual space
Past aloof stars, across the way of indifferent suns
To a destination where all signs tell us
It is possible and imperative that we learn
A brave and startling truth
And when we come to it
To the day of peacemaking
When we release our fingers
From fists of hostility
And allow the pure air to cool our palms

THE PLACE PUTS THE «G» IN GHETTO!!!
Let me first say I wish I had Unilocaled this place before I booked them through Living Social… would have saved me the time and drama!!!
I purchased their moving package for my mother who is a senior. Their representative was not only rude to her on the phone, but gave her little to no lead way on scheduling her moving date. In the end she was given a moving time block of 6am-​9am today (4÷21÷15). Well the movers never showed up!!! Their company phone (888) 333‑0150 is not in service, and it’s nearly impossible to reach anyone on their secondary phone line (818) 451‑8430, which has a full mailbox. At about 7:42 am we received a call from a Mike saying our moving block is now 12pm-​6pm. What a JOKE!!!
DON“T WASTE YOUR TIME WITH THESE PEOPLE! SMH!!!

*** WARNING ***
If only there was a way to give negative stars. I hired Let’s Get Moving because of their «special», 3 hours plus a truck for $ 140. It is now in the top ten mistakes of my life as they ended up charging me over $ 1200, damaged some of my possessions and scratched the floors in my new location.
The problems began with the initial reservation. The «deal» includes a «16−26 ft truck». It was suggested I pay an extra $ 59.99 to assure I would get at least a 24′ truck. My $ 140 deal just became $ 199.99.
I was told to expect the guys to arrive between 8 and 11 a.m. They didn’t arrive until 12:15. Their first task was to review the contents and estimate the number of hours it would take to move. They went over the various costs and, in their professional opinion, it would take 4.5 to 5.5 hours to move my 3 bedroom condo to a one story house 10 miles away. This seemed accurate as I had moved into that condo 17 months earlier and it had taken 5 hours to move in and I had roughly the same amount of stuff. At 5 hours, the cost of the move would be approximately $ 500.00 which was acceptable.
About an hour after beginning to load, they dropped a piece of my bed on a numbered, framed lithograph. It not only broke the glass, it put a hole through the lithograph making it worthless. They told me they would discount my move to compensate for my loss, ha.
They managed to fill the truck before all of my belongings were loaded assuring that I would have to rent a truck to finish the move myself. At the outset I had asked that they load larger items first in case they ran out of room but they insisted room would not be a problem.
As we arrived at my new location they explained that I had used up my deposit and would need to pay more before they could unload. After reviewing the layout of my house and knowing exactly what was on the truck, they estimated it would take another 2 hours to unload. It took over three! How is it possible for a professional to be that far off in his estimate?
In the end, I was charged $ 1238.83 for my $ 500 move, they broke my lithograph and a piece of my bed, scratched the wood floors in my new house and I had to rent a truck and hire a couple guys to complete the move the next day.
Adding insult to injury, I called them in an attempt to discuss problems and the costs of my move. I left messages on their voicemail and through their chat rep and have never heard back from them. I would avoid this company like the plague.

Don’t use this company. My husband and I booked a move, received a confirmation number & they never showed up. I called the day before to make sure they were coming because I didn’t receive an email confirmation (which they said would be sent). Never received a return phone call. They never showed up the next day. They didn’t answer their phone. I got a hold of one of their «virtual agents» who popped up on their web page. That person said someone would get back to me ASAP. Nobody ever contacted me back. I tried calling them at least eight times that day, but nobody ever picked up. I tried texting them — nothing. At the last minute we had to rent a U-​Haul and called our friends to help. This company ruined my moving day. It’s been a couple of weeks and still nobody has bothered to return the phone calls I left. Very disappointing.

I found them online and saw their great deal of $ 140 for 3hrs/​2 movers. I called for more info and after explaining what I needed, it was going to cost $ 200 due to the travel time ($ 30 for every 15 mins). That deal ended up being not so great, so as I was about to decline, he said that he’ll ask his manager to give me a discount and he ended up taking off about $ 20. So I said okay.
The movers (Ali and Miguel) were scheduled to come between 8−11am, they came around 1045am. First, Ali explained the contract and told me that I had a 40 mi limit, which already included the distance from where they came from to where my apt was and for every mile after that, I would be charged $ 2 per mile. That was never explained to me in the beginning and I ended up having to pay an extra $ 16. I
was upset that they didn’t tell me that in the beginning. I had no choice except to pay since they were already there. I paid the $ 250 deposit (which btw he said I’ll get the difference back the next day, but actually didn’t get til a week later after finally calling them) and then we started moving.
The move went pretty smoothly and they were careful with all of my stuff. We finished just under the 3 hrs, but then again I also had 3 other people helping us move too. At times I did feel like they were slowing down on purpose, especially when they arrived 20 mins after me to my new place and still passed the street they were supposed to turn on. Three hrs with two movers would not have been enough and if my other 3 helpers weren’t there, I would have had to pay an extra $ 139!
Another thing I didn’t like was that while we were still moving stuff, Ali asked me to write a review. I told him yes I will. He asked if I could do it right now. I thought umm now? we’re still moving stuff how about I do it after we’re done? I told him I would post one later and I asked if he was the owner of the company and then he tells me no. Then like 5 mins later he tells me, ok I have a conscience and I don’t want to lie to you, but yes I am a part owner. ummm. ok. you didn’t want to lie to me, but you already did. What was the point of that? Kind of shady…
After we finally finished, I went to eat lunch and Ali calls me in the middle of lunch to ask why he doesn’t see my review yet. Are you serious? I’m starving from all the moving and the last thing I want to do is post a review first. I tell him I’ll get to it. SIGH.
As you can see from other reviews, do not go through with them. I never will.

Make sure you read the contract before you sign anything!!! Horrible service, especially trying to confirm with them the day before and day of moving. They crashed into our apartment building and WE had to pay for it. They ripped up my parents leather couches! They took their sweet little time once it was getting close to the 3 hour mark. My brother and I had to help. Then he had the audacity to ask for a tip!!! Never again would I go to them for any services.

If you don’t value your time or your belongings this is the moving company for you. They showed up an hr and 15mins late and tired from their previous move. They worked slow and extremely inefficiently. They literally threw my belongings into my new place and piled them in the middle of my living room. They left my refrigerator in 3 pieces because they forgot the screws and the screw driver, which I noticed and had grabbed for them. I was over charged and did not receive my deposit back. I would have been better off picking up some randoms off the street and renting my own truck. Lesson learned. These guys are NO GOOD! Don’t waste your time or your money. I wish I would have looked them up here before trusting the referral.

Please read before you use them!
I am going to preface this by saying that it is very rare I give out a 1star review. In fact, this makes for my second one out of the 43 I’ve done.
I found them off of Living Social, but if you go to their website they offer a better deal there. After seeing all the wonderful 5 star reviews, I chose the option to have two guys help me move for 3 hours. Now let me begin:
1. They gave us a 6hour (12 – 6) window to expect them. They showed up 6!
2. They start by going over the contract and tried to OVERCHARGE me. However, this was resolved.
3. Even tho I had asked beforehand, they charged me TEN DOLLARS to use my card.
4. They then told me I HAD to wrap everything and that it would be $ 4 per item wrapped. Uh no, I will not have you waste more of my time and money wrapping stuff I don’t need wrapped.
5. The guy then told me about their «PROMOTION» ***If you leave them a 5 star review while they are there moving your stuff with 2 – 3 paragraphs and leave the review up for 5 – 7 days, you will get $ 20 – 50 dollars back!*** Yes, THEY BUY THEIR REVIEWS! If you take the time to look, you’ll notice most of the reviews follow the same format and say the same thing. Why? Because they all took part of this!!!
6. Out of the two men, one was pretty friendly and did most of the work. The other, the one who does most of the talking, acted like he was doing us a favor. He does realize he’s getting paid right? His attitude was not appreciated.
7. For being «professional movers,» they needed to be directed by me on how to better angle and arrange furniture to get it into the new place. I should have been sitting pretty, not telling them how to do their job.
Overall, they turned what should have been a very easy move and stress-​free experience into one full of stress. DON’T TRUST ANY OF THE 5 STAR REVIEWS ON HERE! IT’S A MARKETING PLOY!

Awful experience. I called to confirm my move date and time twice the week before. The day of the move I was scheduled for the 12 – 6 time frame. I called at 4:30 to get the ETA and they were still on their first job and couldn’t give a time. At 6:30 I called again and was told the movers only had ¼ of the 26 ft truck unloaded. They would not be to me until 10pm and the moving company actually wanted to move me out of my place at 10pm. I said that was not happening and requested they send another moving duo. No one was available.
I agreed to the move time first thing Sunday morning between 8 and 11am. At 8:30 am on Sunday the driver called and said they were on their way. I asked for an eta and he said it would be around 10:30 for an arrival time. I was at my place waiting and at 11:00 the driver called and said he was near my apartment but couldn’t find the building. He had the wrong address!
After arriving at 11:30am the movers were incredibly slow, chipped a few pieces, and managed to lock their keys in the truck too. On a positive note, at least they were nice.

I had a great experience with Let’s Get Moving. They finished earlier than expected and were very careful wrapping things to make sure they don’t get damaged or dirty. Last time I moved, the other moving company did a horrible job with packing. Let’s Get Moving was very professional and made it really easy from start to finish. I couldn’t recommend them more.
Let’s Get Moving is an excellent company with professional, careful, and courteous movers. I am so happy they made everything SO much easier. I usually dread moving but they helped relieve a tremendous chunk of that anxiety. Going forward, I will definitely recommend this company to my friends and family whenever any of them are moving.
The three guys, Trey, Mike, and Kevin, did an awesome job! And were extremely quick, friendly and professional! Thanks guys!

Mike and Kevin were incredible. We used the Livingsocial voucher for our move which is a great deal, $ 179 for 3 hours. But we completely under estimated how long it would take to move our two bedroom two bath up the block. I wish the company would have advised us to hire another mover but our two movers were nothing short of amazing. They called us 3 times before arriving since they hit traffic so we knew exactly when to be ready for them.
They were motivated to help keep the number of hours as short as possible so we don’t pay extra for each additional hour, while at the same time they took really good care of our furniture. Everything was shrink wrapped with furniture pads, well worth the additional payment, and there was no damage to our old place or new place. We paid cash a got a little discount which is a nice touch. I also wish I was told that there is a minimum drive fee. It took nearly 8 hours to finish and their energy and stamina never faltered. Really nice guys, I highly recommend asking for them. Although there are a few things I wish I knew in advance, I still give the movers 5 stars and honestly do not know how we would have moved in one day without them.

Great moving service. Very professional movers who work hard and show up on time. They were very careful with our things and were very courteous as well. They worked very hard and were very trustworthy.
Also, the price for the service was way lower than any other places that I inquired about. Real value for the money. Will do business with again! Thanks.

I worked with Trey and Jose today.
Movers arrived on time. They gave pre-​arrival warning. Movers arrived at start of estimated time window. That was helpful. Movers were friendly, well groomed, dressed appropriately.
Moving company carries all necessary equipment. Blankets, mats, wrapping available. Company willing to take direction and careful with your stuff. Highly recommend a moving service rather than doing it your self. On a difficult day, no question made my life easier.

Great experience, booking was easy, didn’t always answer the phone but always returned to call. We were nervous first time hiring and using movers, all worries were put to ease we would recommend and use them again. We needed a last minute move from Rancho Cucamonga to Pasadena. We were able to make reservations within just 2 days.
Mike & Ali moved quickly, they were never idle, worked hard. These guys went above and beyond. They were friendly, organized, clean, cautious, and made the moving experience less painful. Can’t rave about them enough, especially since we called on a Friday and we needed movers for Monday. They came through last minute and didn’t nickel and dime us about extras and last minute fees.

So I needed to move out in one week and was in a pickle because none of my buddies or siblings were available to help me move that being said I started to Google, Unilocal and look at deal sites for any movers that were highly rated. These guys stuck out like a sore thumb (in a good way!!) every single review was 5 stars! That’s unheard of in this business IMHO.
So I went ahead and called the company thinking I was going to end up spending an arm and a leg about $ 3-​$ 400 for movers and a truck as well as padding and tape. While I was on hold to be to have my call answered I heard the automated voice message system talking about a special for this month and I couldn’t believe my ears! The deal was for three hours of moving, unlimited and padding and tape, and two movers with a 24 foot truck!!! The craziest part about the promotion was it was for $ 140, unreal!!!
When the customer service rep picked up the phone I have to verify that all of these things were included for $ 140 and he reassured me that it was legitimate. Right then and there I gave my deposit over the phone and scheduled it five days in advance of my move.
Come move day while I packed and for the guys to arrive they kept me informed throughout the process. I got a call two hours ahead from the company saying that the movers will let me know of their ETA. One hour before arrival the movers themselves called me and then once again 10 minutes before they arrived.
Once the guys arrived at the location they went over the paperwork with me make sure I understood all the charges and surcharges if we went over time etc — (oh by the way two flights of stairs was included in the package is well!).
Once I signed all the paperwork the guys, Mike and Alicia, assessed the whole location and went straight at it. These guys were like a well oiled machine. They knew exactly what they’re doing how did he need to do it and how long it would take we were done packing the truck within an hour and a half if not less. Oh and by the way this included wrapping all of my furniture and mattress pads and taking excellent care while loading it. It was kind of cool to see them Tetris my whole apartment into this humongous truck.
Once we got to the new location unload was a breeze because, as we all know unloading is the easiest part.
I got these guys for three hours deal and it took him three hours, which was just perfect for me :)
Another note to add was that even though I did help the guys every now and then, they took charge and they did ALL (and I repeat ALL) of the work, it was awesome.
A HUGE thanks to Mike and Ali!
Thanks for making our lives easier and my wife not hate me for any scuffs or scratches on the furniture lol. Otherwise I would never hear the end of it!
Two thumbs up (& 5 stars) from both, my wife and I: D

I was assisted by Mike and Ali, who provided great service. I’d definitely recommend their services for the future.
I have heavy and expensive furniture, so I’m very particular with how it should be handled. When the guys arrived, they were open and honest with the timeline and any potential challenges. They answered my many questions, attended to my demands but they were not hesitant to suggest better ways of making the move More seamless. Needless to say, I’m highly satisfied with the experience.
I moved from Westwood to mid-​city and am pleased with the amount of time it took. Moving can be a nightmare, these guys made it a dream.

Very helpfull guys, I called with one day of advance and they were able to fit me in for the next morning.
They called letting me know they would be here in 20 minutes so i had time to get to my storage in time. Only after I paid the deposit the time started counting and they promised i’ll have the work done in 3 hours. I got the 140 deal that came with the truck. It was better then booking the truck and moving help separate
I will definitely recommend and use their service if i need in the future.

The two gentlemen, Mike and Avanti did an awesome job! They were delicate with our things, yet efficient and quick! They asked exactly where I wanted my things placed and did so. I would recommend both the company and these two particular gentlemen to anyone of my friends and family.
Mike and Avanti kept their professional demeanor despite the heavy items, hot weather, and second round of work. Hard to find that kind of customer service these days!

Needed to move last minute, they we’re able to book me immediately for Sunday morning. They we’re professional, fast and on time.
I signed up for their promotion $ 140 for two movers, 3hours, and a truck, which was way more than I needed. I just needed to move a bedroom and office.
Will definitely book or refer them in the future.

Very prompt & courtesy movers. I booked with only 2 day notice and they accommodate my day & time request.
They moved my furniture carefully & professionally. I received their monthly special 3 hours for $ 140. Best pricing around. Definitely would recommend their services.
