I had an upright piano which was taking up a lot of much-needed space in my studio. I dreaded selling it and having to coordinate moving such a heavy instrument along a pea gravel pathway. Finally I called Alder and from that initial phone call, having the piano (plus a large cabinet and hospital bed) moved was a seamless process! Everyone at Alder was friendly, patient and super professional. They calmed my nerves from start to finish. I highly recommend Alder Moving Services. We are very lucky to have them on the Mendocino Coast and now in Santa Rosa too! My highest praises - thank you! read more

Moving can be a little stressful. Using Alder Moving Service took that aspect away. I was moving from one house to another. It was a 8 block away move. They showed up, there was 5 men. They moved like it was an Olympic sport of synchronized moving. They wrap and taped every piece they moved. They were courteous and pleasant and highly professional throughout the move. If you are thinking about moving, I myself with no doubt would use Alder Moving Service read more

We have used Alder Moving Services twice in 3 years to move everything we own to new locations. They are by far THE BEST we have ever experienced. Very Respectful, friendly, thoughtful, professional, and punctual. The prices are very fare. I highly recommend their services. HIGHLY!!!!! read more

These guys deliver!! They get the job done well. They took care of my stuff like it was their own. I wouldn't use anyone else. My second move with Alder read more

Outstanding service and excellent communication. Jason was always available for our questions and his crew did great! They were hardworking and very carful with all of our belongings. The crew was soft spoken and always extremely polite. They worked quickly, but never seemed in a hurry to leave. It was a very large project. We are completely satisfied, and Alder was very competitively priced. read more

I was so happy to have Alder Moving's Sean and Shane move me. Sean has been doing this for over 20 years and was so gentle with my things. They swiftly unloaded the whole truck in 3 hrs and placed every item exactly where I wanted it. Alder Moving was the best move I ever had, and I've moved throughout 17 states. They go all over- I highly recommend them- they do what they say they will and they're THE BEST. They have various sized trucks from a step van up to semis. What great VALUE and energy saver for me! read more

Six months later. I bought a new piece of furniture from the same people who sold me my bed. The bed, I had been told was tricky to put together. I got the directions from the furniture store and gave them to the movers. They were so arrogant and offended by me telling them the bed needed to be put together a certain way. "We've been doing this (this many) years"... the mover even made a comment about how the furniture store didn't know what they were talking about. Well, they put my bed together wrong. The headboard was on the wrong end. I had to pay the furniture store to assemble it the correct way. In that process they discovered, the threading is damaged now. This is a $4500 bed frame and I was very nervous about moving it. I would absolutely not recommend this company. They don't care about your furniture. Their estimates are completely worthless. read more

Hired them for a 138 mile move. They were on time, super fast, professional and worked cheerfully around logistics problems we encountered at the new place. I'd recommend them for anyone needing moving help. read more

There was a mixup on dates & crew arrived a day early! However, they pitched in and helped pack last few things & made a nightmare into a reasonably pleasant experience. They had amazing skills & figured out how to handle everything. read more

Hiring Alder was based on a recommendation from a friend and local business owner. This was to be our 5th or 6th move (more than half of our earlier moves were cross country. Our preliminary conversations with Alder went well, and gave us the confidence to request an estimate. Following receipt of that estimate, and Alder's ability to explain aspects of the expected move, we decided to go with them for our move from Mendocino County south to the S. F. Bay area--a one-way trip of, perhaps, 150 miles and included 2 additional stops along the way. A date was set. The Alder crew showed up on time. While we did most of the packing, the crew proceeded to identify the 6 (or 8) items they were scheduled to pack for us, and get all of our belongings safely loaded onto their truck and moved to our new home. We started the Saturday move at about 7am and finished the move--including the 2 intermediate stops--as planned at about 5 or 6pm. The crew from Alder was outstanding. And the estimate they gave us turned out to be right on the money. No surprises. We're hoping not to move again but if we do, We'll call Alder first. read more

What an amazing experience during a very stressful time. We moved from Northern California to Arizona and Alder Moving was amazing. Their price was very reasonable for the service and they could not have been more professional. They showed up on time and carefully loaded every item, ensuring that it was wrapped and padded. Jason stayed in constant contact with me and arrived in Arizona as scheduled and everything was in great shape. These guys are not fazed by anything. Our new place in Arizona provided a lot of challenges for Jason's large truck and he tackled it with a laugh and a smile. Highly, highly recommend these guys. Amazing experience read more

I had the best possible experience with this company. Easily the best experience I've ever had with movers. I recommend them to everyone

Fast and efficient. This was my second time using Alder Movers and both times I felt like I received excellent service. Employees are focused on the job and took great care with my possessions. I highly recommend! read more

We used Alder on move from Mendocino to SF Bay Area. We had a great experience! The moving team showed up on time and carefully packed all the furniture, including some delicate antiques. We had a last minute request to deliver to our storage locker in addition to our home and they accommodated this request without any issues. I highly recommend Alder Moving Services. read more

We used Alder to help us with moving our belongings from The Sacramento area to Fort Bragg last year. This week we used their services to help us move our furniture so carpet work could be done in the home we moved into. It never matters the size of job-they respond right away, they actually talked with us to work through logistics and they were on time at a very fair price. We've come to trust them as our moving experts in this part of California. Their guys are helpful as we are retirees who are new in the area. I can't imagine working with anyone else on any size moving work. As new people in Fort Bragg they treat us like we've known each other forever-very cool folks! read more

Couldn't have asked for a better crew of movers. Father and his two sons showed a great deal of professionalism in our recent move. Extremely efficient and conscientious of our requests. Highly recommended. read more

Excellent. I highly recommend them if you have a move. They were quick, efficient, and friendly. So glad we contacted them to help with our move. read more

If I could give them more stars I would. From the first phone call, to the end of the move I couldn't be more happier. I have moved at least 7 times in my life, and every move was insanely stressful until I found this company. Their customer service is incredible, always polite, had answers to any questions I had. ALL my belongings made it safely with ZERO breaks or damage (which is almost unheard of when moving). I highly recommend them, and their team of people! They were quick, efficient, and even got to my new house earlier than expected (I felt bad they had to actually wait about an hour for me to arrive and had so much patience on their end) This team are good people, that genuinely care about your belongings and treat your belongings as if they were their own! Thank you so very much for making one of the most stressful processes one can go through, stress free!! read more

I have moved with professional movers 4 times. Alder Movers is the worst experience I have ever had. Jason never sent an estimator to the house, never asked if there were things to pack, and estimated my local move at $1,300. Then a contract was emailed to me for $1,700 + or -. I signed the contract and the crew arrived at my door at the appointed time. They were not aware it was partially a pack job. They dumped the content of all my desk drawers into a big box, used my bed pillows as padding in moving boxes, didn't label many of the boxes, damaged the leg of my dining table, with the truck about half full they moved me the 6 blocks to my new home. I tipped them mid move thinking that might be an incentive to do a better job. I might as well have flushed that money down the toilet. The second crew arrived the following morning and did a good job. The bill ended up being $3,350, which I paid. I would never recommend Alder Movers, and they have not heard the last from me. read more

We had Alder move us from Elk to Fort Bragg and can't say enough good things about the two movers we had. They wrapped our furniture and prepped everything well before loading it in the truck. They were friendly and professional, and not one thing was broken. We would definitely recommend Alder to anyone looking for a great moving company. Darren and Lori N. read more

The move was top notch. Everything arrived on time and in perfect condition. The driver Mike was the hardest worker ever. He was quick and professional and took the time to handle our items with care. I will absolutely use your moving service again as we have on many occasion. A big thank you to Jason and crew. read more

These guys are the best!!!! I recently sold my ranch and bought a smaller property close by in Cleone. I erroneously hired moving helpers from Ukiah thinking I would save money (It was a nightmare) I called Alder moving and explained my situation they came to my rescue and were able to pick up my most precious but very heavy belongings that the other movers had abandoned the night before. I will always be grateful!!! They were professional, had the correct equipment, kind and helpful. They got the job done so quickly because they knew what they were doing. I now realize I would have saved money, time and stress had I hired them originally! Lesson learned! Thank you Alder moving team! Vicki N. read more

The crew (Shawn and Brian) showed up on time and took proper COVID protocol. They were friendly, professional , hard working and fun to work with. They took great care of our stuff and our homes. Highly recommended. read more

I was really impressed by what a great job Mike and the young fellas: Tevin and Jacob did moving our stuff from our storage unit to our new house. They took time to properly move each item and were not rough. They even were challenged with moving an awkward, heavy treadmill. Thanks guys! Keep up the good work! read more

Excellent service from the get-go. Jayson is professional and great to work with. He estimated the costs and was so pleasant when we had to cancel the first try. The packers and loaders know their business very well and we are so grateful. They are extremely efficient and polite. It took them No time at all to clear out our house and get the entire load to Seattle. We are thankful for their help and would recommend this business anytime you need to move. read more

We had a lot of stuff they had to pack, and we had to move several hundred miles, and I hadn't moved in so long I really didn't know what to do or expect. Alder Moving was fantastic in every way, there is nothing more stressful than moving well maybe divorce, but if you're looking for a professional moving company to make it as easy as possible this is who you want to use. read more

What professional guys to work with! Such great care for everything. Super nice. We were so happy with the crew that came and loaded up our belongings and my Niece who checked at the other end for delivery said there were no problems and everything looked good. So glad to find someone local that would take stuff half way across the country! Thank you for such good service and all of you for being so nice. Love doing business with people like this! read more

Ive used this moving company 3 times in the last couple of months, and well on time, under budget and a great can-do attitude.

The best moving company I've ever worked with. They made my move completely stress free. Packed everything wonderfully and unpacked it into a 10x30 storage unit that was no easy task. Nothing was damaged and somehow they fit a 3 bedroom house into a much smaller space. Thank you, Alder Moving Services! read more

I love how easy the website is to navigate. Also on the website they state they are Triple BBB certified. #MoneyMikeChallenge

Shawn and Brian were excellent; prompt, efficient, knowledgeable and experienced. Highly recommended.

I recently moved from Glen Ellen to Mendocino. Alder moving was recommended by my neighbor in Mendocino and I chose to use them because of a steep set of stairs in Mendocino which I knew they were familiar with. From the scheduling with Jane to the movers themselves I felt they did everything possible to make this move easy and stress free. And I thought the price for everything that they did was very reasonable. I would highly recommend calling them for you moving needs - large or small!! read more

I have to say we just finished up a move from Gualala to Petaluma and the Alders Moving team were amazing!! Rudy and Rich were friendly and fast... they even conquered the spiral staircase !!! I can't recommend them enough!! Thanks guys!! read more

Jason and his crew did a fantastic job helping me with a very difficult move. I didn't make it easy for them... moving is hard! They showed up on time, and were kind and gentle with my 'treasures'. Jason patiently helped me with hard decisions, and stayed cheerful, helpful and efficient throughout the 2 day ordeal. He is based in Fort Bragg, and has roots in the SF East Bay Area. This helped so much, in coordinating local resources for me, and finding help with the many miscellaneous problems associated with moving a longterm residence on very short notice. Thank you Alder Moving Services!! read more

These guys were fantastic. Rodney and Mike were the A Team. I moved from Mendo to the Bay Area and it was seamless. THANK YOU!!
