Labor Force Movers

This is as good as it gets! Punctual, yes they were on time! They were quick! They were conscientious and careful with my goods. They put my bed together! They are the best! I would definitely recommend and use again should I ever need moving help!

Hired 3 guys for our transpacific move to load a 20 foot container. Junior is professional and responsive to calls/​texts. They accommodated a last minute change in time. The guys were pros and so efficient! We had some heavy duty equipment which they hauled up the 4 foot– off the ground container with no problems. They brought all kinds of wrapping equipment, triaged everything, and packed the load down like pros. Such reasonable prices, would recommend!

These guys are fast, efficient, and careful. They arrived early and operated well within the agreed upon timeframe. Would definitely hire them again.

I hired labor force movers to move my 3BR townhome — mostly furniture only. I provided a 17′ truck for them. Junior was very responsive in setting up the time for the move. Junior, Robert, and Rick showed up 20 minutes early and immediately got to work. I was very happy with how things were wrapped and loaded in the truck. They were very efficient, professional, and notified me of any concerns they had. They took apart my two beds and put them back together at the new place. It only took them 4 hours to pack everything and unload it at the new place. VERY happy with the results. Their prices are very reasonable as well, couldn’t be happier.

I recently used Labor force to move me from Mission Hills to Mission Valley. My boss where I work recommended this company and it was pretty short notice on my side since my other moving company decided to cancel on me for no real reason leaving me worried about not being moved out by the end of the month. Junior is seriously the best! He was polite on the phone, answered all my questions and was able to set everything up for me. He recommended i use 3 movers because i did have stairs on both ends which i agreed on. I have a lot of heavy furniture and boxes!!! Robert, Abraham and Danny arrived a couple minutes before 8am, introduced themselves and got straight to work. Just watching them work for the first 10 minutes really told me these guys are pros. They padded everything i wanted them to and they used plastic shrink wrap for my brand new mattress and box spring which i really appreciate. I had some kitchen packing i still needed done and they got right to it. These guys worked super hard and not once did they complain about a single thing. Both ends are on the 3^rd floor and i bought lunch and drinks for them. They seriously did a amazing job with no problems at all. No damages to my furniture and all my kitchen boxes made it safe. Junior called me that evening to check in and made sure everything went smooth. I couldn’t have been happier with their service. I’ve moved several times in the past and Labor Force is the best moving company without a doubt! I will refer you to all my good friends and family. I will use you again in the future. Thank You!!!

I used this company twice and both times were excellent. In May 2010 they moved me from my apartment downtown Sd into a storage unit and on 7÷6÷2013 they moved my stuff from my apartment in to a upack trailer for my long distance move. Everything was packed and wrapped securely. They ended up only using 12ft of space when I reserved 17ft and I had alot of stuff. NOT only is this company a huge money saver, they are professional and they worked fast. They had my furniture on the trailer and tightly secured in 3 hours. They also saved me an extra $ 500 with upack. Thank you, Jr. & LF Team !!!

I used them today. They are friendly and did a good job.
I would use them again and recommend them to my friends.

since our first choice of movers weren’t available, we decided to try these guys out. they were slow loading the truck and didn’t pack a lot of our items with shrink wrap or use padding. this resulted in some of our items being damaged. as another reviewer mentioned, they were on their cell phones frequently which caused the move to be longer than it should have. walls were scratched and dented when they moved the bigger items in the house.
though they were friendly, i’d save your money and go with another company. especially since there are other companies that cost just about the same as them.

I am writing this review a little late because I’ve been very busy unpacking and trying to fix the mess that these people left me to deal with. I gave them one star because I didn’t have the choice of not giving them one at all… We moved on the 6^th of March to our brand new built home and made the biggest mistake of hiring these guys to help us with our move. Our house is not too big and we had almost no furniture but whatever we did have, they ruined!!! I wasn’t there when these people arrived at the storage place where we had our furniture. Had I been there, I probably would’ve had them leave right away. First of all, these people don’t put down anything in writing, and the reason why, I know this now, is because they don’t want to be held liable for all the things they brake nor all the damage the may cause, etc. That should have been our first warning flag… Unfortunately, my husband was there and, being the nice guy that he is, thought that everything was ok, I mean, we weren’t being charged much… Well…When they arrived to my new home and backed up the truck, which was smaller than what we had arranged for but that, per Junior, wouldn’t be necessary, they opened the door and I saw all my furniture stuffed in there, without blankets wrapping anything, things on top of others and jammed up against each other… it looked like they were driving 90mph on the freeway, through turns and bumps, stuff barely tied down… a disaster!!! I was upset from that point on and called my husband to get home right away to help me deal with this situation. When they started to download, they threw my stuff on the ground, not on grass but on the dirty sidewalk filled with construction debris from the other houses that are still being built on my block, scratching it and getting it dirty in this way… To make a long story short, they dented my brand new walls, they dirtied them, they broke my treadmill, and scratched my furniture and my brand new front loader LG washer!!! I was livid! My husband just wanted me to relax but I couldn’t contain myself and I let them have it right then and there. The only thing they did try to do to fix all the damage that was caused by them and their clumsiness was not to charge us for one of the 4 hours that took them to move a 2 bedroom, living room, and dining room. I am going to file a complaint with the Better Business Bureau against Junior and his so called «moving company», and I hope that you don’t hire these lousy, careless, unprofessional people. The entire time they were moving my stuff, they were throwing boxes on the floor and their cell phones kept going off, with the most ridiculous ringtones I’ve ever heard, everything form babies crying to stupid songs and other annoying stuff. They wouldn’t ignore these phone calls, they would answer them in the middle of it all, and the phone calls were not business… they were personal!!! They speak Spanish and I don’t know if they knew I could understand, but the entire time my husband was gone to get the cash to pay them, they were talking about us, mainly me, and how they didn’t care whether they were doing a good job or not, just to finish quick and get the h… out of my house. That right there, the fact that they will ONLY ACCEPT CASH, should be another red flag when trying to contract these people’s services… I could stay here forever, writing about how bad of a job they did and how much I hope you don’t contract them for your next move but I think I’ve already said enough… When we hired these people we wanted to save a little money but had no idea we would end up paying much more after fixing all the mess that the left for us to deal with. We had just had our entire house painted, over 3000 dollars down the drain, because of these guys! I cannot believe how such a company could stay in business with the type of service they provide. I guess YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR!!! I hope you find this review helpful.

These guys are awesome. They did an amazing job loading our 3 bedroom house into our moving truck. They worked super fast and for a great price. I would totally use again.

Germane and Robert helped me move my full three bedroom home out of storage and into a moving van. The price was excellent and they finished in half the time that I thought they would. I was on the road off to Phoenix. I was worried about how well everything had been packed into the moving truck. After I arrived, I was relieved to find no damage on anything. What a relief.
Thanks for the smooth move and I’ll use you again when I come back to San Diego.

Labor Force was great for moving my studio apartment, very professional, efficient and on time. The 18′ truck was kind of funny to see mostly empty, but I didn’t want to deal with renting my own truck, driving it and parking it myself in Hillcrest would have been a nightmare and my friends were working the weekday I moved. Labor Force even helped me move some random things out of my car and we finished the move in 3 hours exactly, even though there were stairs at both apartments. I would definitely recommend them.

Great movers and efficient workers. 2 fellas unloaded our truck for us and did an excellent job. Each time I would call to confirm or ask a question, they answered their phone and were available for my needs. I would utilize their services again and recommend them to others.

I moved a 1-​BR apartment using two movers, and my own 17′ rental truck. I was told when I made the appointment that 17′ would be enough for what I had to move, and that it should take no more than 2 – 3 hours for the move, with a 15 min drive and stairs on both ends. As it turns out, the truck was barely large enough, and it took 6 hours. The movers said that was because my apartment was a long walk from the parking area, although it was only 3 apartments down. It seemed to take a long time for them to figure out how to arrange things in the truck, and at one point at least a dozen or so boxes came crashing down in the truck, including ones marked «very fragile.»
The movers were polite and helpful, and I appreciated being able to arrange something on fairly short notice for the 1^st of the month. They did a good job padding and wrapping the furniture and there was no damage to that. (I haven’t opened the fragile boxes yet, but they are clinking inside…)
I would probably use them again because it is a convenient and fairly inexpensive way to keep from having to bother friends and relatives to move all the heavy stuff. But I would recommend booking early, asking for some of their more experienced movers, and expect the time given to be a low estimate. (You have to have the cash on hand to pay them, so that can be a problem if it ends up costing double.)
*17 ft truck was good for 1 full size couch and stuffed chair, china cabinet, bed, two dressers and a cedar chest, three 1’x1’x6’ shelving units, plus boxes of kitchen items and clothing (including 2 wardrobe boxes). No TV or dining room set. A larger truck might have made packing the truck go more quickly.

Recently hired them to move from a 2-​bedroom apartment to a house with two stops to pick up furniture somewhere else and drop off some furniture at a donation place. All that with a flat fuel charge quoted upfront. I booked 2 men and a 18-​foot truck. The guys packed the truck really well and are fast and hard working. I under estimated the amount of my stuff and should have booked 3 (or 4) men with a 26-​foot truck. I felt bad that the 2 guys had to work 9 hours. If I hired 3 men it would be faster.

I had a 16 foot POD of furniture and boxes to unload and needed help. I’m always a little leary of Craig’s List ads, but I tried them (the price is right for two guys by the hour) and they were great. Nice guys, efficient, careful and friendly (a bonus). I have no problem recommending them to anyone that needs a few strong guys to help with a move.

I used this company to move from Little Italy to the beaches and was very pleased with their care and attentiveness to my belongings. Per Junior’s recommendation, I decided to use 3 men and the truck. This was a great suggestion and definitely helped to speed up the process since i moved from an apartment complex where the elevator was the main source of transport up and down.
All of my items arrived at the house and as far as I can tell from unpacking so far, nothing was broken. Would definitely recommend these guys if you’re looking for good, honest movers. Good pricing as well. They did arrive 45 minutes late, but called to let me know they had a flat tire and I at least appreciated them letting me know.

I recently used their service after reading great reviews on Unilocal,I was looking for an relatively inexpensive service to help move my apt without me having to deal with the labor of everything… and I have to say they were awesome.
I felt they were efficient, friendly, and knew how to take care of the items I really wanted to secure. They wrapped those fragile things up, packed the truck nice and tight and worked hard. At the rates they charge, you don’t have to break the bank and get some good service, definitely give them a call. Only bummer, they didn’t have wardrobe boxes, but nonetheless, not a big deal.

I contacted a bunch of movers via craigslist and Junior from Labor Force Movers responded promptly and made a point of courteously following up while I decided which company to hire. We checked out their website and could tell they were serious players. We decided to book 4 guys and use their truck. They were almost on time. We made introductions and they got right to work. As others have mentioned, they were all very friendly, courteous, and extremely careful with our stuff. They packed the truck as tightly as possible and filled it completely full. They didn’t take breaks, but we provided water and some donuts which they gratefully consumed on the run. I think we wrapped up after about 4.5 hours and gladly tipped them all for taking such good care of our things. Moving isn’t easy, but these guys helped make it a lot better. We highly recommend them!

Minus one star for being 45 minutes late. Extremely careful and conscientious about our belongings. They took the proper amount of time to carefully pack our apartment. Nothing was broken. They used the space in the truck well and we didn’t have to rent more truck than we needed to. $ 35/​hour for two guys and they didn’t over charge for gas. Very polite and professional. Would use then again and recommend them to anyone!
