These guys made our moving experience 10x better. Quick, helpful, and efficient. The crew made sure to handle with extra care. The crew arrived on time and helped move our 3 bedroom house to a 2 bedroom apartment. Highlights: - Helping us pack - Deconstructing furniture - Coming prepared with extra boxes and tools - Best prices read more

Dennis and Uplaksh made our moving experience a joy! Never thought I'd use the words "movers" and "joy" in the same sentence. I contacted Bay Area Efficient Movers just 2 days before my move via Yelp, and they were quick to respond, provide a quote, and send the details! Dennis and Uplaksh showed up on time, with smiles on their faces :) They provided us with all the moving supplies we needed, included in the price -- such a deal! I was even more inclined to write this review because a week after using these movers, my boyfriend had already scheduled a different company to move out of his apartment and we had a terrible experience. Dennis and Uplaksh really earned their keep -- They worked quickly and efficiently. They wrapped everything carefully -- nothing was damaged. They even managed to fit all of my things into a tiny 4x4 storage unit (didn't realize how much I had, oops!) Overall, they were true moving professionals and a pleasure to work with. The price was very reasonable, especially compared to other SF mover quotes I received (especially considering all supplies are included in the price!) Will 100% use these guys for any move I have in the future. read more

Will from BAEM responded *VERY* quickly to my last minute request. I had a six room apartment in SF that I was moving out of, and the other moving crew bailed on me last minute due to a BS reason. Not only that, but I had to be out of the flat by noon. In my desperate state, I did *not* expect these guys to show up on time (let alone 10 minutes earlier than expected at 7:50am), or be efficient or easy to work with. Very much the opposite, as Baur, Sasha and Max were absolute champs and absolutely committed to the task at hand. They showed up earlier than expected, did a fantastic job wrapping and hauling the furniture I couldn't get to, and even managed to squeeze in some items that I hadn't planned on taking (massive area rug, armoire). It hailed for a good ten minutes in between the pouring rain that morning, and these guys worked without complaint. Absolutely requesting them again if I move soon. read more

This was the best moving experience I've had. The movers were friendly, efficient and they were careful with packing and moving our items. I also appreciate how responsive they are. I would use them again and highly recommend to anyone! read more

These guys were awesome! Very friendly and considerate. They brought all the gear necessary for packing and making sure my stuff makes the journey safely :) they were also flexible with my dog! Frida (my dog) really enjoyed the truck ride! Highly recommend the entire move was fast and worry free. Thank you so much read more

Dennis Ali and max were awesome. Super friendly, respectful of my property and what I needed, and super thorough. They took good care of my piano too. A+ service. Highly recommended Edit: Used these guys again (Tim and his crew this time) and service was stellar once again. Also, Adam, who runs the show was great to work with and promptly responded to questions here on yelp and over the phone. Thanks! read more

We ended up canceling our reservation with BAEM and going with another company after I found they communicated unprofessionally and poorly compared to the three moving companies I have used in the past year and the other companies from which I requested quotes this time. On several occasions, they took so long to respond that I had to follow up and, on the third time, threaten to move my business elsewhere if they had not responded within five business days (totally understandable if they were able to explain why!!). We went with a company that sent a well-organized, polite, comprehensive estimate, responded quickly, and complied with my request to see a (blank) contract ahead of time so I could read it thoroughly before signing day-of. BAEM would not provide that Agreement when asked, despite CPUC regulations requiring they actually provide the fully complete, ready-to-sign contract no less than 3 days ahead of time. I'm sure they are nice people and good movers, but I need companies I hire to communicate attentively, clearly, and effectively, especially when we're talking about spending hundreds of dollars on moving all of our life belongings. read more

Would highly recommend BAEM. The guys were professional, courteous, on time and did a thorough job in dismantling and reassembling the furniture. All the furniture was padded with blankets and wrapped with care that not a single item was damaged. Would definitely use them again for any future. UPDATE 2/2019 Used BAEM to move again. And couldn't be happier with the service provided. The guys did a great job with padding, disassembling and reassembling the furniture. The furniture going upstairs had a tight corner on the stairwell and not a single mark on the wall/s. Always friendly and courteous. Would have no issues recommending them or using them again. read more

Great job! Four guys showed up for the move and had everything in our moving pod in less than 4 hours! This is amazing when you consider the fact that they packed AND moved our stuff in that time. Very polite, very hardworking bunch. read more

Excellent service from BAEM guys this morning. I finished my 1-bedroom SF inner city move in less than 3 hours. The movers were experienced and courteous and helped pack everything very quickly. The movers provided boxes, tape and packing materials, including wardrobe boxes that were very useful. I would highly recommend BAEM to anyone moving in SF. read more

Nic and Bauer helped me move and they were very pleasant and helpful. I felt confident they were trustworthy. They wrapped everything that needed to be wrapped and somehow got all my heavy stuff and a million boxes moved. It took a little more time than I'd expected and plus tip it wound up being a lot more than I'd anticipated, but I have a feeling this would've happened with any company. BAEM had a very good rate and I felt the two workers were so nice that I would certainly use them again. I would do a better job of packing my loose items, I learned a lot of tips! Thanks! read more

Al and Upi were awesome. They wrapped everything up nice and secure and moved quickly. Make sure you book through yelp then confirm on the phone that you booked through yelp bc when I called, the guy gave me a different price- then confirm again when the movers arrive! Best quote out of 6 other local movers with the same yelp rating. General moving pro-tip: u-haul has the cheapest new boxes to buy and place for people to recycle boxes that you can pick up FO FREE. read more

These guys were absolutely fantastic. On moving day they called to say they were running early, so we were able to get a most-appreciated head start. The movers were friendly and fast while still being careful with my things. What was most impressive was how the team handled a mirror that did not make it from the old apartment to the new place. When I emailed to ask if it had accidentally been left on the truck, they replied immediately to let me know they were checking their trucks. That same day they emailed again to let me know the mirror had not turned up but that they wanted to replace it for me. I sent them a link to where I had purchased, and a brand new replacement was delivered to me less than a week later. A professional, fast, thorough and very honest team over at BAEM. Would definitely use them again. read more

I tried to get several quotes at once via Yelp and Bay Area Efficient Movers replied quickly and was able to give me a quote based on my description. Their pricing is very reasonable. I was also able to schedule them to do my move within the next day! Communication was easy and two movers showed up on time, even calling ahead to let them know they were on the way. They worked quickly and efficiently, and wrapped up some larger pieces of furniture for us. I was really happy with their service, quick communications and easy to work with. Thank you guys for doing a great job on short notice too! Highly recommended for any move. I've already referred Bay Area Efficient Movers to several people and will use them again for my next move. read more

I hired Bay Area Efficient Movers to move my grandparents 1934 GE refrigerator (83 years old), which I will be having restored. It had not been moved from their home for 64 years. The three movers took extra great care wrapping it and protecting it and trying to move it in the best possible way to keep it as upright as possible. Everything I had asked them for such as a truck with a lift gate, refrigerator carrying straps, a 4 wheel dolly and an upright dolly, they came prepared with. They were courteous, considerate and took great care of my antique fridge! They got it to it's destination, without any hiccups, where it now awaits the next phase in it's life! Thank you so much for a stress free, smooth move! A+++ read more

This team of 3 was effecient as advertised. They were punctual, professional, and careful as well. Would highly recommend. Thanks again for the help, gentlemen! read more

Move went very smoothly! They were on time and very professional. Bubble wrapped and blanketed items thoroughly and the move went well. Would highly recommend them! read more

Really happy with this movers. They did really good jobs. Handle everything careful. Maksim and the team did wonderful jobs. read more

Quite overdue, but we used Bay Area Efficient Movers on several occasions over the last few years. They were always incredibly responsive, efficient, and handled our things with great care. Would recommend to anyone moving within the Bay Area with no hesitations. read more

My boyfriend and I hired BAEM to help us move across SF, and we were super impressed by the service that we received! The movers were very efficient but meticulous; they made sure to carefully wrap fragile items with packing paper and bubble wrap, and also labeled all boxes with content descriptions (super helpful as we began to unpack all our things in our new place). Would recommend for sure! read more

Extremely honest and trustworthy. Try to make sure you're on the same page with time expectations. That being said, Dennis is a great guy who really cares about the customer. Seriously goes the extra mile. read more

We hired BAEM to help us with our move between SF and Oakland. They are great! They helped us pack a few last minute items, wrapped all of our furniture for protection and loaded/unloaded the truck quickly and efficient. We worked with Dennis, and one other man, I can't recall his name, but they were both very friendly and professional. I would for sure reach out to this team if we ever moved again! read more

I had a great experience with Bay Area Efficient Movers. I had to move by the *next* weekend and sent out a bunch of messages to multiple moving companies; BAEM were prompt to respond and I was able to schedule it that same weekend. Nick and Vitali showed up on time (and called 30m ahead to give me an ETA), packed everything up (including disassembling my giant bed / dresser), and then unloaded up in San Francisco really fast as well. They were also conversational and had positive attitudes the whole time, which made the process of moving less stressful :D Definitely recommend for anyone in the bay area. read more

I don't like giving bad reviews and try to support companies especially in a time like this, but If I could give zero stars I would. I had to cancel my 8/29/20 move with this company. I was very disappointed with the entire experience. I filled out the yelp questionnaire regarding my move details. It does not seem informative enough for moving companies. The communication was poor with these guys. Thankfully I called them and learned there would be possible added charges based on the weight of my couch. Anything more than 200 pounds you get charged additionally $75 PER stair step. Thay is Crazy. I called and they wanted to come to my place to see how much my couch weighed. They scheduled to come to my place at 9am yesterday 8/22/20 to look at my couch, but NEVER showed up. I had to call and then rescheduled for them to come between 3-5pm that same day, and AGAIN they never showed up. They also never called to tell me they weren't coming. It's so rude and horrible way to run a business to just leave customers hanging and uninformed. I can not recommend any one who would treat a customer like this. Very sad to have this experience when moving is very stressful and with many people leaving SF, movers are booked up. It was inconsiderate of these guys to not show up or not call me twice. read more

GREAT service from the 3 guys that came to move my roommate & I! We moved from North Beach over to Nob Hill with no problem. They did a great job communicating arrival time, packing all of my valuable/glass goods, and doing it all with a sense of urgency. I would definitely use them again. I'm so sorry I forget the 3 men's names -- but they even came back to drop off one back that they hand held because of how valuable it was. Truly a great experience! read more

Great Moving Company!!! I didn't have to worry about anything the 2 gentlemen that did all the move where great! and made my moving experience super easy! I will definitely call you when I move!!! Thank you Bay Area Efficient Movers!! read more

Great movers, I'm super glad I hired them instead of doing it myself. They were very efficient, very professional, and also really friendly - I'd lost my voice but they were very accommodating and made it work. I had a few breakable small appliances I was a bit worried about but they brought them over fine. They came exactly when they said they would as well. The price wound up being the same as the estimate, no surprises. I was a bit hesitant to hire movers because of some bad experiences before but I was really glad I hired these guys. read more

BEAM helped us move this past Wednesday and I have nothing but positive things to say about their services. I hired them because of their quick response, positives reviews and they sure didn't disappoint. My move wasn't too far, only from Oakland to Walnut Creek. The move day came up quickly and we were a bit behind in getting everything packed and boxed up before they arrived due to the Turkey Holiday the week prior. However, that was no problem at all. They went above and beyond to help get as many things boxed and packaged. They also took special care of things that were a bit more fragile. We had everything completed within 5 hours, which exceeded my expectations. The offered to put anything furniture together or move furniture around once it was all unloaded. They worked hard and were very professional. I would definitely recommend BEAM and would certainly hire them again. read more

I hired BAEM to move between studio apartments within San Francisco and I'm glad I did. They worked fast and efficient and the whole process took less than 4 hours. Communication was very good too. They answered all questions I had and the quote was accurate. Definitely going to keep them in mind for my next move. read more

I'm one of those people that has moved a lot over the past 6 years -- in fact, 5 times, so that means hiring help typically on both ends of each move. I've had great movers (in fact, the movers that jigsawed and tetris-ed everything into the moving truck this time were incredible - like watching a team of Hulks on caffeine - I don't think they stopped running the whole time and they were huge) and not-so-great movers. I thought that the BAEM movers were courteous and careful, and overall seemed like nice guys (only one spoke English, but he was nice), but incredibly slow. Of all the movers, I'd rate them as one of the slowest groups I've hired. Because of that and some challenges in communicating ("this way up" on boxes didn't get understood, I think), I wouldn't hire them again. This isn't to say they were the worst, but I've probably had five or six other companies that were better. I just didn't have the experience of the other reviewers on here. update an hour later: Adam contacted me immediately regarding this review and asked that I include that the movers finished the move safely in the 3 hours (which is their minimum charge). I'm totally fine explicitly including that here. As I wrote, I think they were an adequate and nice team, just slower than other movers I've hired. I'm not a huge fan of Adam's response to this review, but to each their own. read more

These guys are awesome and saved the day! I was moving out very last minute, and was having the hardest time finding boxes to rent and movers to help me. Not only did Bay Area efficient movers accommodate my move but they even brought me boxes, tissue and bubble wrap the day before! SO nice and helpful!! Uplaksh & Dennis were wonderful to work with. They were super careful and efficient. It was a pleasure working with them, thanking them for all the help today! I would absolutely use them again and recommend them to anyone :) read more

I've used BAEM twice, and have only good things to say about the movers and the company! Maksim and Maksim were very polite, helpful, skillful, and efficient in the move, and I would highly recommend BAEM for your moving needs! read more

Had an excellent experience with these guys. The communication was good, the showed up with enough muscle, truck space, and the necessary gear. They packed the truck efficiently and carefully. All our furniture and belongings arrived with no damage. They went to extra mile to help get my arcade cabinet around back by taking off a side-gate fence and reattaching it -- no complaints. I had to do some adjustments to a bed frame they reassembled, but that's totally reasonable and if you're detailed oriented probably something you should do yourself anyway. Would definitely use them again! read more

BAEM was efficient and courteous. Adam came in to do an estimate before the move and on the actual date, Kyamar, Tim, and Baby (Babu) was excellent. They worked hard and FAST. They tried their absolute best to pack 8 years worth of stuff (family of 4 with pets) onto their truck and it worked. My husband and I did minimal help; in fact, we felt many times throughout the day that we were just in the way and all 3 gentlemen can move more efficiently and thoroughly with us not helping. The price was reasonable with the move being across the bay in the middle of rush hour on a Friday. I highly recommend them and appreciate the assistance they provided. read more

This is my 2nd time using BAEM. They really are an awesome moving company. I never thought I would say that until I worked with this company. Adam is always very quick to respond out of the gate and then the movers themselves have all been so great. I missed giving a 5-star review and a shout out to the BAEM guys who moved me last year, but they were incredible. I had different movers this time and they were equally awesome! Thanks so much, Denis and Nurgeldi!! You two really made my day. You were on time, super fast, and very careful with my things. Plus, you were so very pleasant. I really appreciated the hard work you did for me. I will be calling BAEM again if I move next year, but let's hope I can stay in a place longer than a year this time! read more

I contacted Rob on short notice, and his team was able to quickly come out and move me. They were terrific and worked very hard. I was very happy and definitely would use them again. Thanks! read more

I scheduled my move with the Bay area efficient movers 10 days prior to my planned move date as they offered an attractive price quote. That turned out to be a huge mistake. Our agreement was that they will come to move my 1 bedroom apartment, from 11:30-3:00, with their estimation that it will probably be towards noon, but they promised to give me a 1 hour notice by phone. The night before the move, at literally quarter to midnight, I got a confirmation email letting me know it will probably be around 3pm instead. On the following day, we were busy cleaning up both apartments and rushed back around 14:15 to be home for the movers, however no call was received still. I called the company asking if they're coming still at 3pm and was told they're going to be half an hour late. I asked if they will still give me a call 1 hour before arriving and they confirmed. Half an hour later I'm calling to check in as I'm getting no calls from their side, and am told that they will be there anywhere from 15:45 to 16:15, and they offer me a discount for the inconvenience. I was annoyed but accepted the offer. At 15:30 I call them again to make sure they're gonna make it by 16:15 (and again as I'm not calls from their side) and am told that they will be at my house by 6pm!! At this point, going from 11:30 to 3pm to 6pm in just 24 hours, I didn't believe a word they said and cancelled the move with them to find movers that will still do it on the same day and not waste my time for nothing. Do yourselves a favor and go with movers that can stand by their word. read more

These guys are so great. Some friends of mine moved themselves, but couldn't get their couch through their tiny new door. We called and asked if someone could come out and give us a hand with getting the couch in, since movers are especially good at that. They sent someone right over to help, and we had to FORCE money onto them for coming out. Tried for 45 minutes and just couldn't get the couch in. But such nice people. Highly recommend working with human beings who are interested in helping people, and not price gouging just because they can. read more

Moving is my absolute least favorite thing to do in the whole world. But with these guys, Olzhas, Eric, and Sergei, I can say with total confidence that they made the experience about is easy and seamless as it could've been. These gentlemen were organized, had good leadership, were careful with my furniture and household items, and could not have been more professional. Nothing was broken, they were on time, they did not attempt to overcharge, and they were respectful. Thank you, guys, for making this experience so good. read more
