    BEWARE‼ DO NOT USE THIS MOVNG COMPANY I was in contact with Ibrahim, the owner. He sounds nice, but don't be fooled. He is far from honest. He sent two inexperienced workers to help move my furniture. I have expensive furniture they completely damaged due to their carelessness and negligence (see attached pictures). They also did not hook up my washer and dryer properly. The gas nozzle that connects to the dryer was not tightened and caused a gas leak. Leading me to call the fire department to help assist me considering I have a small baby in my household. The water pipes connecting to the washer were not properly tightened as well, as when I turned the water on to use my washer water was sprayed all over my wash room. To add even more insult to injury I expressed my concerns to Ibrahim about the lack of experience his workers had in removing my door off the hinges to which he said was an "easy job" but when it came time to install the door back in place they were not able to do so. In addition, they do not have their own moving truck. They rent from U-Haul (undisclosed at the time I booked their services). They charge for the truck rental and per hour. What was supposed to be a 3 to possibly 4 hour job turned into an absolute nightmare ending in a 9 hour job. The movers got to my house without any wrap for my furniture. I had to ask them to buy wrap. The wrap they purchased was the cheapest wrap providing no protection for my furniture. They also did not have enough moving blankets to protect my big items from getting damaged in transit. I was in contact with Ibrahim from the beginning. I expressed my concerns to him and he kept assuring me they would take care of moving my furniture safely. That never happened. The movers arrived at 2 pm and did not finish the job until close to midnight. After telling Ibrahim of all the damages he said he would pay to get them repaired. He lied. The next day I called numerous times, also texted and he never responded. Days later, he still hasn't responded. Please think twice before using them to help you move. Response to owner (considering I've been blocked from adding another comment): Christina, Ibrahim Dababneh goes by Abe and is your husband. I Zelle'd him the deposit for this move. He's also on social media reflecting his full name and company name (see attached pictures). I did not get the wrong company. It is obvious your company does not want to take responsibility for the damages. Raul was one of the movers he sent to me along with Aaron. Raul is also mentioned in some of the reviews on yelp. It doesn't surprise me that you would lie and act like you did not work with me. It is a shame that you would use God's name in your response. Shame on you and your company. The company does not live up to its name. I would also like a refund for the deposit of $125.00. Please google this company. They are also on U-Hauls website as a listed moving company. Beware of this company they are liars and unethical.

    Thanks Abe!!!!!!

    We just had Athena's Movers help us out today in Crestline and have absolutely no complains(the…read morehighest compliment there is.) They gave me a call roughly an hour before they came so we could prep for them and didn't complain at all when they couldn't get their truck up our steep driveway(not their fault, it's a VERY steep driveway and a VERY big truck). They were quick, prompt, professional, and very friendly. They also were quick to adapt when there was a last minute change in where we were going to meet and were easy to communicate with both via yelp and phone. 10/10, would and will be using these guys again in the future and would recommend them to anyone looking for movers; especially up here on the mountain.

    I chose Athena's based on reviews. I've learned quite a few costly mistakes which I need to share…read more Knowing I have to close escrow and vacate my property by 8/15, I was assured by Peter (owner, senior level point of contact), not to worry. Based on reviews, I trusted. Initially, movers were to be there between 12:00pm and 12:30pm. Once they were late I called and was told that they got tied up on the move before mine and were running late. Ok. Things happen and that's reasonable. But was still assured not to worry. They eventually arrived at 8PM. Now I was worried. Towards the end of loading (which I and my son helped with, even though we were paying for it), I was told that they could hold my stuff overnight and deliver first thing in the morning since it was already 10:45PM. I knew I should've trusted my gut. All in all, I was quoted initially $1,000 and ended up paying just shy of $2,000 (including tips for the movers who were very good) Not vacating the property cost me another $500 because my escrow contract dictated a $500 penalty per day. Peter assured me not to worry. Two dining room chairs were broken by one of the movers. That's ok, these things happen especially during a household move. My calls and voicemails to Peter were never returned on how I can file a claim. Well, I guess I have to eat that cost as well. Lessons for others: 1) Don't accept or agree to an afternoon move. Try for a morning one. So in case you want your washer and dryer hooked up, fridges, etc. All these ancillary items will push back the afternoon appointments. 2) Understand the difference between binding and non-binding estimates. 3) Review the option for insurance and also consider third party insurance The good part about this were the actual movers. These guys all hustled. Carlos (seemed to be the supervisor of the other 3 guys) was awesome. Nothing but kudos to the guys that did the actual heavy lifting and moving.

This is our third time using them, and once again they did an amazing job We were moving out of a three-story apartment and into a two-story house, all during a heatwave of around 100 degrees. Despite the heat and all the stairs, the team stayed positive the entire time. we had fun with them! They were extremely professional, careful, and hardworking. Not a single thing was scratched or broken. They even offered to take our TV off the wall, which we hadn't planned on doing, and helped us with it. Their prices also fair compared to the great service they offer. Highly recommend them

    Think twice before hiring NF Moving! Our experience was incredibly disappointing, and what happened…read moreafter we reported the damage was almost as frustrating as the move itself. We originally chose NF Moving because they had a 5 star rating on Yelp. We then hired NF Moving to professionally load two rental trucks for our move from Yucaipa, CA. to Arizona. We supplied the trucks and plenty of protective materials. NF Moving's own pre-move document specifically stated that its crew would handle "padding and protection of furniture." Unfortunately, that is not what we experienced. When the trucks were opened at our destination, the unloading crew's reaction immediately told us something was wrong. Numerous items had been loaded with little or no protection. Four Electra/Townie bikes that had been kept in immaculate condition were placed directly beside each other, metal on metal, uncovered and with nothing between them and leaning against a ladder. We specifically asked an NF Moving crew member to please cover and strap down the bikes. That was not done. All four arrived scratched, with exposed metal from rubbing against one another. A solid wood desk was left with finished wood exposed against the truck floor and arrived scratched. Its legs were also left unprotected and damaged. Two leather ottomans were not properly wrapped and arrived with scratched metal. Our approximately 3-year-old Pottery Barn sofa was wrapped only in plastic, without moving blankets protecting it from hard surfaces. It arrived with marks transferred onto the fabric. A dresser was wrapped incompletely, leaving a corner exposed that arrived scratched and dented. And those were only the items where we immediately identified damage. We also found cream upholstered headboards, benches, dining chairs, furniture legs and other finished surfaces loaded without adequate protection. Framed pictures and shelves packed in lay-flat boxes had been turned on their sides with a golf bag placed on top. A white bookcase was even used by the crew as a step stool during loading leaving behind a wet shoe print. There was no shortage of truck space. In fact, we had TWO trucks. The condition was concerning enough that we paid the destination crew an additional $470 for two extra hours of labor so they could properly wrap and protect our belongings before placing them into storage. The job that should have been done by NF moving! We documented the condition with photos and videos and promptly submitted a claim. NF Moving denied it. We then submitted a detailed request for reconsideration, pointing out that their own paperwork says their crew handles "padding and protection of furniture," that their contract provides valuation when damage is caused by their staff, and that the contract states NF Moving is responsible for items while in its immediate care. They denied the claim again. Their position is essentially that because the trucks traveled approximately 300 miles after they loaded them, we cannot prove their loading caused the damage. They also emphasized that we supplied the trucks and materials and were present during loading. That response is particularly frustrating. We hired professional movers precisely because we expected them to know how to properly wrap, protect, position and secure household goods. Supplying blankets and a truck does not make the customer the professional mover. Being present also does not mean a homeowner should be expected to supervise every piece of furniture loaded into two trucks or override the professional judgment of a four-person moving crew. Most troubling to us is that NF Moving never meaningfully addressed why so many items were left exposed or inadequately protected despite its own written promise that padding and furniture protection were services its crew would provide. We have now filed a formal complaint with the California Bureau of Household Goods and Services and provided documentation of the move, damage, contracts, correspondence, photos and videos. We understood that moving always carries some risk. We did not expect perfection. What we did expect was professional care, reasonable protection of our belongings, and accountability when something went wrong. Instead, we received damaged possessions, an additional $470 expense to correct the condition of the load, and two complete denials of responsibility. Based on our experience, I cannot recommend NF Moving. If you are thinking about moving into or out of the Inland Empire and you'd like more information about our moving experience, you can DM me and I'd be happy to give you more detail on how bad this experience has been.

    I requested a moving quote through Yelp and heard back from several companies, but Spartan…read moreimmediately stood out because they were the most communicative from the start. Since I live alone, it was important to hire a company I could truly rely on. The owner, Christie, offered to come to my home to provide an accurate quote, which I really appreciated. Their pricing was very fair. On moving day, the crew arrived right on time and had no issue making an additional stop at my storage unit. They were friendly, extremely hardworking, and incredibly fast. They also took extra care while loading and unloading, making sure my furniture and belongings were protected and handled properly. Even with a long day that included a three-hour drive to a rural location, they arrived on schedule and maintained their energy the entire time. Everything arrived intact and was unloaded exactly as requested. I was very pleased with Spartan's service and I would absolutely use them again.

    Monica says to Rachel, "I gave you one job." - "Friends"…read more Actually, my move involved multiple jobs but arguably one of the most important ones Spartan failed at. Initial communication was very promising. They had a solid price (I obtained multiple quotes), could do it on the day I needed it (which was evolving because of escrow close) and stated they had their "A-Team" available for my move. We ended up booking them for a March move which involved moving a townhome plus a 3 - 4 bedroom sized storage unit (10x20 efficiently packed)! Originally they seemed to understand the requirements as they brought two trucks but one truck was a 20 footer which turned out to be a tad too small. We ended up making multiple trips in our car to offset. Team was on time and did a solid job with the first part of the move. So far so good. But, I think they realized after taking lunch they were a bit behind and so when they arrived at the house started double timing, not always efficiently. To be fair, taking apart the Murphy bed at the new house cost some time but we needed the space for one of the king beds. Boxes we told them to place in garage but we had to tell them to leave spaces to walk in between. First attempt was just placing all the boxes together like a storage unit. Upstairs, we noticed some scratches all the floor when I had mentioned all through the process starting with bidding that we had wooden floors and please have experience at keeping the floors undamaged. They put the furniture together, helped out with trash pickup and I gave each mover $80 tip. That was a solid tip for an all day, three location move. But it might have been too much. From the beginning the master king bed just felt "off". Lopsided almost. We thought it was the mattress, and that we had to rotate and move the mattress. Nope. The bed wasn't re-assembled correctly. The slats were not properly reinforced in the center and the wood bent, buckled, and finally snapped. See photos. So I waited on this review, until we opened all the boxes, and I am glad I did as our bed crashed. In the end, cannot recommend this local outfit. My national mover that brought me back to S Cal did a far more professional job, even these Murrieta movers said "Wow, those guys stacked your stuff so well in the storage unit". I wish I had used them again for this move. Not recommended.

I was immediately compensated for the issues I had surfaced and am extremely grateful to the Qshark team for doing so. **ORIGINAL** Unfortunately I cannot say I would recommend Qshark. We hired them for a cross country move and were very hopeful for a smooth process given the total cost we were quoted. Prior to the move, I will say the customer service was great. Any question we had was answered promptly and clearly over email, which was very helpful when preparing for the move. On the day of pick up, the movers were punctual, organized, kind and respectful. I have no complaints for the first half of the move. The delivery is where things started to go south. Our movers assured us they would arrive by July 1, however the night before I received a text from Frank that the movers were very delayed and were likely going to miss the delivery date. He let me know the battery had died in the moving truck and therefore they were unable to make the agreed upon delivery date. This was a problem as we had no accommodations for that night, assuming we would've been able to stay in our new home. Frank offered to cover the cost of any hotel expenses we incurred, which was the right thing to do given the circumstances. However, I did have to follow up with him once or twice to complete the reimbursement, which again isn't the type of service I would expect given the premium cost we paid and unique circumstances. When the movers arrived the next day, things looked positive as they were unloading all the furniture. However once they left we realized several items were either missing or damaged. Our bed frame, bar cabinet, shoe cabinet and futon all had either pieces missing or parts that had been dinged. On top of all of that, our TV screen had been damaged in the move. I have since been asking for claim details to get reimbursed for the TV repairs, and have followed up daily with no progress or confirmation that we will be compensated for the damages. Overall while the movers themselves were wonderful, the service of Qshark fell far below expectation and I would not book with them again.
