Mark and his crew of very kind and highly motivated movers helped me move to a new building in my complex and up two floors of stairs a couple weeks ago. Communication and service were excellent. I got his name from a neighbor who also had a great experience. I too passed his name on to a colleague who was very happy with the service as well. They took great care in wrapping and carefully guiding my belongings up the stairwell. Although I don't intent to move again anytime soon, if I do I will definitely be calling Mark/Express Moving again without hesitation. read more

This company replies "your account is fake" to every bad review... Which makes me realize how pathetic and desperate they are. Instead of addressing actual customer concerns they resort to lies.. Guess what Express moving.. people aren't just logging in to write takes reviews on random companies... Maybe address your customers concerns and improve rather than avoiding improvement read more

Do not use these guys they are awful and over charge I hired them to move things within my home I paid cash for 3 hours of service for 1 and half hours work they then charged my credit card for an additional $340.00. The movers moved 5 prices of furniture 4 to the front lawn for giveaway and a couch from 1 eoom to another. Definitely not worth the expense. read more

The guys at Express Moving are amazing. My move would have been an absolute disaster without them. I moved from a 2 bedroom condo to a house. This move should have taken only 6 or 7 hours total, but the HOA at my condo threw every sort of wrench you could think of, at the Express Moving guys. Yet they handled it with professionalism and courtesy. Even with four men, moving with speed that makes me tired just thinking about it, it still took almost 7 hours to move out of the condo and then another 3.5 - 4 to move into the new house. It was well past dark when they finished setting up my furniture (yes, even with the added hours, they stayed to set up all my furniture). To top it all off, at the end of the night, Mark showed me my contract and he agreed to stick with this earlier quoted price, even though they'd worked well past the timeline we had agreed on before my HOA interfered. After all their hard work, I wouldn't' imagine only paying what he had quoted earlier, so I wrote the check for what they really deserved. They are fair, professional, expert movers. Not one piece of furniture was damaged in anyway, and I was able to sleep in my new house that very night, even with all the speed bumps. I cannot say enough on the professionalism of this moving company. read more

First off, I want to warn you. All of their 5 star reviews, are bought and paid for. Or friends trying to make the business look better. Because if you've ever really used this company, you wouldn't rate 5 stars. We had a 700sq ft 2 bedroom. We were quoted 4-5 hours with two movers. Seems reasonable, since we didn't have much and the new apartment was only 10 minutes away, It took 9-10 hours. They broke our desk, some dishes and laid down a 55" plasma television. Our television ended up with blue lines. Awesome. They took their time. They even left for a hour lunch. With our stuff. Without telling us. My girlfriend ended up writing a review about them on their facebook page. Wow, do they like to fight back. There is no true customer service here. It's almost like a collage frat that moves you stuff. Seriously, no matter how much they quote you, find someone new. *As a rebuttal, I was never offered insurance. Second, our so called "friend" Jen, is a tweeker hooked on crystal meth. You shouldn't take the words of a drug addict who probably ended up having sexual affairs with one or both of your movers. Fourth, it's not polite to argue with your customer. And last, but not least, you also shouldn't review your own company, as it's not proper. "Mark R. I had Serg, Mario, and Armando moving my storage locker out into my new house. The guys showed up on time with smiles on their faces and full of energy which gave me a kick in the morning.... This company is definitely not the biggest out there however the quality of the service and the options they offer is by far more advanced and affordable than most well known companies. These guys covered all my carpets, tile and hardwood floor with adhesive rug-runners and paper runners. They provided all packing materials and wardrobe boxes at no additional charge. They covered all the railings and doors with protective pads. The quality and efficiency here is definitely like no other!" read more

I used express movers a few times, once for a full move and three more times for furniture deliveries from various stores. The guys were very detailed or iented and quick they delivered the furniture assembled it and placed it all how my wife and I wanted. The guys went through all our options with wrapping and packing and offered various options to have our belongings insured while in transit (above basic minimum insurance) Over all it was a pleasant experience to work with this company and we definitely will recommend them to all of our friends. read more

This was the first experience I've had with movers. I figured it was a small price to pay to free my friends from helping out with yet another move. The movers showed up 1.5 hours late. When they arrived, they insisted on me paying cash even though I was told cash or check was acceptable over the phone when I booked the appointment. The movers themselves were some of the smallest guys I've seen! They took their time and was sure to use up pretty much all of the 3 hour minimum. I caught one of them texting/checking his phone at least twice on my time. One of them was cold and unfriendly. The other one just didn't speak a word of English (Russian, I think). I'll give the whole moving service another try but I will avoid Express Moving and you should too. read more

Outstanding customer service! I called at 6:00pm on a Saturday night because our original moving company never showed up and we were in a bind. The owner, Mark, answered my call immediately. Although he couldn't fit my move in for the next day, he did send me a text with the names and numbers to two other companies that might be able to help. Sure enough, we found someone who set us up for 9:00am the next morning (a Sunday)! This act of kindness and genuine customer service was so welcome after such a rough day. Thank you! read more

I recommend Express Moving 100%! I interviewed several moving companies and Mark was persistent about getting my business. He has a thorough knowledge of his business and put my mind at ease. Our move was a great experience and Mark and his crew worked extremely hard for two days moving us into our new home. His team never stopped! They were very polite, intelligent and clean cut. They took great care moving my 4,000 sq ft home and didn't break a thing. These guys made my experience so much better than I could have imagined or asked for. If you are looking for a great quality moving company then these guys should be your first choice! I can't say enough good things about this company. Thank you Mark. read more

This is my third time using express moving and I am impressed every time! They do an amazing job every time, work diligently, care for all of my items while wrapping and arrange furniture at the new location. Mark and his team are affordable and provide quality moving service. read more

Awesome guys. Eduardo and Victor were helpful, courteous and punctual. Job was done as expected and the guys were pleasant to work with. Highly recommend! read more

Setup a moving date and setup a day for Mark to come out and see what needed to be packed and moved and to give an estimate as best he could. He did not show up. I called 3-4 times left messages no return call. Do not waste your time with a 'slacker'. read more

We requested 4 movers and only 3 were provided to move a five bedroom home of 2900 sq ft. We requested 100 pads to move everything and they only came with 50 moving pads. They damaged the walls of both houses, the one we moved from and the one we moved into. Also, the kitchen floor of the old house was damaged as well. Some furniture was damaged due to not having enough moving pads. Mark Rybikov who is the owner of Movers Express, has refused to pay for damages done to the homes as well as pay for damaged furniture done by the movers. We were referred to this company by Amy Cook, a realtor with Coastal Properties. read more

See all

We need help (on our customers behalf) from time to time with loading services (for the elderly and disabled) or moving odd-shaped/commercial items (like large stainless steel refrigerators). Twice now Express Moving has helped me in a pinch, with great rates and service. I've come to Mark twice with urgent and stressful needs, and each time he came through quickly, politely, and professionally. He is now top-dog in my referral list for loading and moving services. Wonderful customer service, Competitive rates, Quick response, and Quality work. He always gets the job done right. I am thankful and impressed by Express Moving!! Thank you guys!! read more

Mark and his team at Express Moving are excellent!! I have utilized their packing, wrapping, unwrapping, arranging, storage unit organizing, home moving and set up services numerous times over the last 5 years: four times for myself and one for my handicap mother. Mark is friendly, professional, attentive and has always gone above and beyond to make sure our moves have been smooth, easy & non-stressful. I cannot say every item has been perfect when we reached the next location, but I am a realist and know that unless I personally hand carry every item to my next locale, the reality is 'stuff happens' when in transition. Big deal, it is 'stuff!' Mark and Express Moving took care of both items that had minor issues. We have moved numerous times over the last 22 years and I can honestly say, Mark and his Express Moving team are by far the BEST we have ever utilized! (Even way better than our expensive corporate transfer move from CO to CA!) I highly recommend the services of Express Moving to all my friends, family and clients. Mark personally took the job of driving a truck over to Phoenix, AZ where he and crew assisted me in packing up, loading and driving my handicap mothers belongings to her new San Diego home. It was 125 degree heat (record breaking those 3 days in AZ! Let me tell you, it sucked!) the entire time we worked. Never once did any of the crew complain. What could have been an extremely stressful time for me with moving all the contents of my mothers home from one state to the next, was made easy via Express Moving. I will utilize Express Moving for my next move. I will continue to recommend their services to my friends, family and clients. **Disclaimer for all the nay-sayer reviews on here: I have not been paid or coerced to write this review.

My experiences with this company have been positive. Therefore..... 5 ***** STARS for Express Moving! read more

I used express moving during a very difficult time and they were great. They charged a lot less and their minimum amount of hours was less than other companies. They arrived on time, were friendly, and respectful, and worked hard to make sure they didn't go over the agreed upon time frame. They managed to fit everything into the storage unit to ensure that if fit and nothing would be damaged. I called them again, to move me into my new place and out of storage, and again, they did a great job. Once again, they were on time, polite, and efficient. They cared about where I wanted things placed and everything arrived without a scratch. They make the whole experience easy and pleasant. I don't write a lot of reviews but they have proven themselves twice. read more

I used the Express movers service yesterday after seeing thr review on Yelp. Their was a slight delay but Mark make up for the delay by adding additional guys for the move... These guys worked non stop for 3+ hrs and were super fast. The furniture was packed nicely and all my furniture items were moved in record time and without a single scratch. Needless to say.. These guys exceeded my expectations and I will be using their services in the future for any requirement... :) Thanks Mark and Company! read more

Very good choice for a moving company. Great price and high quality service. Very courteous costumer service and intelligent employees. Pleasure to have business with! read more

As if moving isn't painful as it is...I had an emergency situation in which I had to move on short notice while I was out of town. My Dad was able to arrange Express Movers to come do the job! Thankfully Mark was extremely accommodating and able to schedule us immediately. The movers arrived and were very professional. They all worked diligently to complete the job timely (4 hours). The whole team was friendly and courteous. They provided all moving materials and were careful in the handling of all my personal property. Very reasonably priced. Thank you so much for doing a great job!! read more

These guys are awesome. They were on time and moved me out of my apartment quickly. I highly recommend Express Movers

I booked a 330 move and got a call that they would be late, which is fine. Then another call saying they would be later,again fine but they said they would be there by 5. All their phones were dead so I couldn't get in touch with anyone. I assumed they were not going to show up at all. They showed up shortly after six and we just decided to cancel. He did offer to do the job at a discounted rate so I'm giving 3 instead of 2 but we didn't even use their service. read more

Outstanding experience with a local move this past Saturday. I was 100% satisfied with every aspect of my move. Mark arrived on time with seven additional polite, clean cut, hard-working guys. All of them were exceptionally careful with my belongings, pleasant to my family, and willing to go above and beyond the call of duty. They arranged and rearranged my furniture at my request and are coming back after I unpack to recycle all of my boxes at no additional charge. I cannot say enough good things about this moving company. I use Yelp frequently, but have never written a review. I signed up for a Yelp account just so I could let others know what a great job these guys did. Moving is stressful. As promised, Express Moving made it a pleasant experience at a very reasonable price. I wish I could give more than five stars! read more

I thought these guys were great. They were courteous and very hard working! I would definitely use them again.

This is the first time we used a moving company. They arrived in time and after a quick walk through of everything got right to work. We moved from a one-story house to a two-story house. They moved a lot of heavy furniture upstairs for us and even put our bed back together. I thought they were very time efficient and helpful. All together I thought we had a great experience and I would recommend them again. read more

I received quotes from several companies through Thumbtack for a recent move, and Express Movers offered the best deal. I coordinated with Mark, the general manager, and he recognized right away that we wanted to do this in the most cost-effective way possible. We wanted them to focus on the big items and keep it close to the 3-hour minimum. To save money we planned to just move the little stuff on our own. We have a lot of stuff. Plus, we have 2 little boys, pets galore, and both places had tricky logistics for getting things in and out (stairs, narrow doors, etc.). This move was a huge undertaking in every way. Manny and Marco were very courteous and careful, and they boogied! They got there right on time, and they didn't start charging us until they had the truck in place and the first load out the door. They got everything moved that we had hoped they would, and in almost exactly 3 hours. We were left with just a few easy minivan trips, and we're now happily enjoying our new home. Side note- our friends also recently moved and hired those guys outside of Home Depot to help them, and their experience was NOT good. Apparently there was a lot of bickering and dropping/banging things (and possibly sneaky drug use) going on. I'm relieved we hired professionals! read more

I booked Express Moving at the last minute and they were able to accommodate for same-day move. I spoke with Mark. Very nice guy. When Mark and Jacob arrived to do the move I ran into a problem that delayed the move. The problem was my fault, not theirs. But here is the interesting part, Mark actually solved the problem and we were able to get the move started. He didn't have to do that, but he did. Mark and Jacob did a great job with the move and they were fast that we finished ahead of schedule, even with the delay I had. I can't thank these guys enough for doing such a great job and for handling the situation smoothly. I picked the right movers for this. I don't think any other mover would've took it upon himself to resolve the issue I was dealing with. Mark and Jacob: If you're reading this, thanks again for all your hard work. You guys were awesome! RATINGS: Customer Service = A++ Cleanliness = N/A Ambiance = N/A Décor = N/A Value = A++ read more

Mark's comments could not be more false. 300 yards is three football fields. This was a move from the front door of my building to the closest curb. If it was 30 yards I would be shocked. I also received emails from him threatening a defamation lawsuit because I chose to share my experience on sites like Yelp. Which sharing your comments and experiences is what Yelp and other sites are built on and I'm threatened with a lawsuit. If this sounds like a company you would like to do business with then good luck read more

This isn't just a two guys and a truck type of deal these guys are professional. I was quoted reasonably took a hour more than expected and was never charged for more. The guys were on time and clean cut. Took great care of my items. And the owner Mark personally was involved in coming over and making sure we were happy. 7 hours of moving pulled off without a hiccup. My items all tooken care of. Thanks guys and thanks Mark. read more

Mark and his team did an amazing job. He explained all our options. Everything was padded and wrapped. They were all very professional, courteous and efficient. I will call Express first for our next move. I highly recommend them. read more

I was extremely pleased with the moving services that I received. The movers were very careful with my delicate collectibles and they worked very quickly. I have been in the military so I am very used to hiring moving services, I would 100% recommend Express Moving. read more

I used Express Moving for our relocation from National City to Otay Ranch. The rates were reasonable and Mark explained all the details clearly so I decided to give them a chance. I called to confirm 2 days prior to the move and Mark assured me we were all set with 3 movers and a truck scheduled for 8AM. On moving day, I placed my first call to Mark at 8:15 because the movers were late. By the second call for no movers at 8:40, I was upset!! Mark calmed me down and we agreed to have a good day. The movers finally showed just before 9AM and they worked extremely hard. I couldn't have been more pleased. For a 3 bedroom home, our crew disassembled, loaded, transported, unloaded and reassembled all furniture in our new home in under 4 hours. Amazing! It was definitely money well spent. These guys don't play around. They come to work and get the job done quickly. We had zero damage because they made sure each item was wrapped securely. I'll never move again without movers and Express Moving is who I trust. read more

I have used this company 3 times in the past 3 weeks, and Mark and his team are excellent. The scheduling is easy, the pricing is very reasonable and upfront, and the service quality is impressive. Mark provided accurate quote, showed up on time, worked diligently with his team, and delivered everything we wanted, from multiple locations, on time and in budget. I have been very impressed with this company. Keep up the good work, guys! read more

The movers that came were polite, caring and efficient. They did a wonderful job and not a bump on the walls or anything. I recommend them highly. read more

They were awesome. They had a two hour turn around from receiving the appointment and showed up to provide last minute service. They were courteous and professional and moved everything in record time. They were also cheaper than other movers with a same day appointment. I will definitely recommend using them again to anyone else. read more

We reserved express moving a couple weeks in advance. I only wanted the movers, not a truck or anything. I thought I'd need them for 3 hours. The morning of they showed up right on time. We had 2 movers Shawn and Arthur. They were ready to work and told us it would probably take longer than 3 hours. They worked really hard, running back and forth from the truck. Took over what I expected but not for their lack of trying. Both were great guys who seemed to genuinely care. When I'm ready to move out of storage in 3 months I will be calling and asking for them! read more

I've used these guys twice, different crew this time and they were awesome. We moved from 2nd floor apt to 3 story townhouse. They were SO fast and efficient. I've moved a lot, across the country twice and this was the easiest yet. read more

Moving is SO stressful but Express Movers makes it happen! Shout-out to Mark and Manny! We've used them several times, most recently to help move our kids from San Diego into a 2-bedroom apartment in LA. Long, tough, sweaty, hard day, (with no parking) but thanks to the professionalism, great attitude, and know-how of these guys, the move was amazing! Thank you--highly recommended! read more

Don't trust a word they say, the moved me and promised to give me a percentage of the move as finders fee if I recommended my friends. My friends used them for a 8hr. move and Mark promised to send me the finders fee, at one point Mark the owner said he sent me the check, said he was sorry I didn't get and even said he would bring it by to my house, of course he never did. I hate to be lied to! read more

Express Moving helped to move our stuff from 1 Bed / 1 Bath condo to 2 Bed / 2 Bath condo and they did it in 3 hrs. I had booked them just a week before the move. They came in time and packed the furniture properly. The move was so smooth due to these guys. Mark is an awesome manager and his customer service skills are remarkable. Will recommend Express Moving to others! read more

I was satisfied with our experience. The guys were on-time, friendly and did a great job protecting our possessions. We anticipated the move to go a little quicker, with an initial estimate for 3 hours and it took just a little over 5. They guys could have been a little quicker loading, but that may just be my personal work ethic clouding my judgement. The guys provided an updated estimate upon viewing the workload, and they came in just a little under. I would recommend this company to my friends/family. read more
