    First of all, the quote from Ian's is pretty detailed and clear with a reasonable price. I Have Alex and Iegor Helped me move one bedroom and one living room yesterday from east bay to South Bay. Arrived just on time, they were nice and explained items on the sheet before I signed. My clothes were placed in a special long box. Every furniture was carefully wrapped. Moving process was efficient and organized in a confident way. Truck was a middle size, perfect to move and park. This is my first time trying moving service and it was perfect!

    Highly recommended Team KG for any of your moves. They are extremely friendly and professional.

    Neat and organized packing of our stuff. We knew we were in good hands!

    We had a great experience with Ian Movers. Will and Matt arrived on time, immediately got to work, and there's no slacking off between these two. They did their work fast and efficiently and we were done before we knew it! I highly recommend them to people who wanna do away with too much stress from moving, as they made it almost seamless. I'd give them a 6 stars out of 5!

    We moved from SF to The east bay. Denis and his crew were incredible. They went above and beyond to make this move a stress-free and smooth experience. We were impressed with their commitment, efficiency, strength and work ethic. The scorching heat did not slow them down one bit. They were very respectful and very careful with our furniture. Nothing broke, not a single item got scratched. Denis and his guys are genuinely nice and hard working people. I highly recommend hiring them!

    Hello everyone! These days have come ;) I mean moving days. I needed to move some of my items from my apartment complex to storage. I know across the Bay Area many moving companies are operating. And I decided to use perfect Yelp tools for requesting a Quote. It allows me to send a request and receive an estimate from many moving companies. Using it I found these guys - Ian's Movers. First of all, I picked up my ears, because they didn't have any Yelp reviews, but it seemed my move wasn't super hard, so I decided to give a chance to them. More of this, they gave me the best estimate. And running ahead, it worth it. Not to mention, the manager of Ian's Movers was very friendly and contactable as trough the chatting on Yelp as on the phone. The customer service of this business was perfect. They were very flexible in time and we scheduled my move exactly the time I wanted to. The employees were very accurate and came to my place exactly in time. These guys fully equipped, I saw door stoppers, scotch tape, shrink tape, new straps in the moving truck, etc. I asked them before to get some moving boxes and they brought boxes of three sizes, so it was up to me which ones I need to use. It is very useful if you want to save some money if you don't have many items and don't need large boxes. I have to say my movers did a great job of transporting my tricky bed. As you can see in my picture from the review, my bed consists of many parts and about a million screws. I am sorry I didn't take more pictures but my day was crazy. As you can see as well, I have got a very expensive floor and I really want back my rent deposit, so I asked guys follow the rule "No damage, no cratches". And everything was done with no even one scratch. I want to say, these movers were pretty fast and professional. My total time was 3 hours and 12 minutes (yes, these guys are giving you a very accurate time so you can check them and make sure you are not overpaying). It was very nice of them to give me a 12 min discount, so I paid 321$ (107$ per 1 h). As a conclusion, I would say, I truly recommend Ian's Movers for your moves. You will get the best service for an affordable price and you will save some time to write here one more review! ;)

    Awesome moving company! They were punctual, efficient and polite. All details were confirmed the day before, their website is very easy to use. We have a small dog and they were very polite and even stopped to pet him during the move. I was amazed at how fast they were, as well as how methodical it all was. Anytime they saw me carrying a box to our private vehicle they offered to help. I will definitely be using them again if need be!

This was for a one-way move from the Bay Area to Nevada, about a 4+ hour drive. Cost: reasonable and better than some other companies which wanted much much more. Fixed price based on what I described we had to move. I conferred w Nancy via phone, text, email. 4% fee if credit card is used. $200 deposit, can pay by cash/check/Venmo or Zelle. I used a cash app. There's no written contract. Moving day: Last month: movers Bao & Deng, don't speak English but seemed to understand us. Owner/supervisor Nancy came to out house to see, a surprise! Their moving truck was clean. Moved items from house and storage facility. They padded and plastic wrapped bigger items like sofa, dresser, desk, etc. They are efficient and know their stuff - what would've taken me and my family 3-4 hours to move they finished in 30 minutes! Nothing broken, nothing damaged. Payment: $200 cash tip each. $2,100 final payment via Cash App. Reliable, efficient movers, would use them again!

So I knew no matter how long the move took and with the long distances, I already knew how much the max cost would be up front with no surprises. And they also offer a discount based on the way you paid them. WINNING! And so, I didn't use Pure Moving just once, but three times this month. The first time, I had to move from Union City to a storage facility in Elk Grove and this past weekend we had two teams going, one from San Jose to Elk Grove and the other from the storage facility to our new home. Pure Moving was perfect in all ways possible. They were professional, prompt, efficient, and super friendly. They handled and wrapped items with care and made you feel at ease that everything was going to be safe and secure. They disassembled furniture as needed and reassembled it on site. One great detail, they laid down plastic protectors everywhere to keep things clean and tidy where they would be stepping. And cleaned up all the plastic wrap/coverings, cardboard and tape they used while packing and unpacking. They literally took care of all the heavy - and even the light - lifting! I just want to say thank you to Paul, Nick, Toha, Dan and Symon for taking care of our move and my Family. Moving is already stressful but they made it Pure-ly AWESOME!

What I encountered was end-to-end excellence, from customer service to their excellent moving team. I knew our move would be a large one, so I booked a 26' truck and five-person crew. As the day of the move approached, I had lots of last-minute worries and questions and Sam, in Customer Service, answered every one and generally calmed my nerves, assuring me my move team would assist if we needed last-minute help. On the day of the move, the team arrived right on time. The foreman, Guillermo, assessed our situation and calmly confirmed my suspicious that we'd need two trucks (this my error, not OnTrack's). Before I could panic, he had contacted his team and we arranged that ours be a two day move. Guillermo's team wrapped our furniture and had the truck loaded swiftly. At the new house, we had a few of our family help direct traffic. I'd labelled every box with a color-coded room label and the team got everything to the proper room. On day two, Sammy -- part of the original crew -- acted as lead and we repeated the process. Here, a number of items still needed a bit of packing and his team had everything done in record time and -- bless them - marked the boxes for the proper room destinations without prompting. As I now unpack, I'm finding everything in excellent condition and couldn't be more grateful. We'd heard stories about moving nightmares and wanted to share a happy ending. Guillermo and Sammy were AMAZING and their crews were very hard working. Tips: my sister had a table of bottled waters, bags of chips, and other snacks ready for the team when we arrived at the new house. The team appeared grateful for the sustenance. We also tipped each person individually, in cash.

I'm not asking for anything to be waived, just transparency. Your remarks about your family are completely out of line. It's clear you want to change the subject from your questionable practice and make this personal. It is not personal. I don't know you other than how you have presented your business here. Very Questionably. I see you removed your statements about your family business. I provided the law that it appears you are not following in a private message.
