My first Yelp review and I'm glad to do it for Malama! Highly recommended! Everything about Malama Moving was top notch from the customer service to the final farewells. Jane answered all my questions and wasn't pushy knowing we were shopping for quotes. Kona, Albert, and Hutch were smooth and fast! Nothing sketchy. We had full confidence that our stuff was secured and safe with them. They finished quicker than advertised and we parted with with a handshake, shaka, and smile. Reminds that that there's still good people and business in Hawai'i! read more

Ryan, Elgene, and Landon are the best! They were super quick in wrapping my furniture and were very professional. This is my second time using Malama Moving, and I'll probably use them every time now read more

Absolutely great! This is second time using Malama and will probably use them again if and when I ever need to move again. They were quick, efficient, and most importantly made my experience a great time! A massive shoutout to Kirk, Albert, and Elgene! They arrived on time, had a fun attitude, and worked efficiently which made the move very quick and easy. All my belongings arrived in the same condition as it went in. Highly recommend!! read more

Today with the help of Joe, Kinny and Isiah I bid farewell to my office of 6 years. These guys were pleasant, friendly and efficient. Everything was packed up neat, today and secured. They made my move so stress free. I would also like to thank Jayne for helping me to set this up. If you want amazing service, Malama Moving is who you want to work with. read more

Malama moving helped me relocate 20 years of belongings from one location to another on 6/22/2026. From Jane, the extremely pleasant and helpful office staff, to the three man crew of Lala, Landon, and Ryan--my experience was superb! Setting up an appointment was easy with Jane offering specific instructions, explaining my payment options, and giving me a confirmation call the working day before my move. She returned my calls quickly when I had questions. The crew got everything (my 150+ boxes and items) moved from the first location to the second location in about an hour's time, making the deadline before my drop off location was about to close. They worked together as a great team with Landon handling the check out and payment process efficiently. Watching them work reassured me that they were professionals in ensuring my items would be delivered safely. At my drop off site, they neatly organized my boxes and belongings in a way that I can access them for unpacking later. I thoroughly appreciated the service provided to me and my belongings were handled with such care. I highly recommend Malama Moving and this crew! read more

This is a bit overdue. But this moving company did an excellent job. I did a full pack and move that was two days worth with Kirk's team. They were all very accommodating, took good care of my things and were very personable. The way they packed were very thoughtful and easy to unpack. Things were labeled and certain things that you would need like remotes or legs for the sofa were placed meticulously. Additionally, i'm pregnant and I didn't have to do anything physically which made this move stress free especially with me trying to move out in less than a month. Thank you so much Kirk, Ryan, Landon, and Brandon! Would request them again. read more

Even though I couldn't use them, I do recommend this business. Their quick response with very fair pricing is part of what makes them an attractive business to use. If i ever have to move again, I will make damn sure to hire this company read more

Such a great company and great team , very professional, very detailed, and very organized! They delivered the king size of bed and the bank bed . When they were unpacking the kings size mattress foundation, they cleaned and vacuumed before entering to the house ! Kirk, Ryan and Leland such a very strong , very professional and well organized persons ! This team did an incredible job ! Moving around the furniture and making a space for one they have delivered. I would recommend this company and this people to everyone! And if I have to move stuff again I will definitely reach out to them! Mahalo Dila read more

Malama Moving exceeded our expectations. Kona, Albert, and Yasmine were punctual, hardworking, and very friendly throughout the entire move. They helped us relocate from one condo to another quickly and efficiently while taking great care of our furniture and boxes. Their pricing was fair and transparent, and the service was excellent from start to finish. We would absolutely use them again. read more

Malama Moving was impressive right from the initial contact, when I requested a quote for our project from several companies on Yelp. Their response, as well as communication, was swift and to the point. I chose to go with Malama Moving mainly because they were extremely responsive and competitively priced. Also, because they were able to accommodate our move-out date, which was right around the corner, due to a sudden flooding of our apartment. Ikona, Huch, and Isaiah arrived right on time, if not a couple minutes early. They were very considerate to our neighbors and found the nearest parking available right outside of the parking lot so as not to impede traffic in our building. They were very attentive to our needs, knowledgeable, and confirmed exactly what needed to be packed, moved, or stay put. They took care in wrapping fragile items, and went the extra mile as far as dumping a couple items that we no longer needed, outside for bulky item pick up. The guys packed the storage room very efficiently which amazed me because I was afraid that everything may not fit in the space. I would definitely choose Malama Moving in the future and recommend them to friends and family. The guys were a pleasure to work with, especially because they were very patient with my mom, who is not only hard of hearing, but very particular about her possessions. You'll be lucky if you hire the A-Team of Kona, Huch, and Isaiah! read more

The team at Malama Moving is beyond amazing! This is the second time we hired them to help us with our move, this time from Kapolei to Nu'uanu. Their customer service is impeccable, from booking a moving date with Jane to the guys that helped with the actual move. Joe, Jwin, Leland, and Isaiah were real champs! They were hustling and made the move so easy; even with having to carry everything 3 stories up a mountain, there were all jokes and smiles. 10/10! I would highly recommend! Thank you, Malama Moving! read more

I've used Malama Moving for all my projects :) Kona and Isaiah's crew is the absolute best!

Ryan, Lala, and Kirk were awesome! They were punctual, courteous, hard working and mindful of protecting our furniture and home. We used another moving company before and there is no comparison! Malama is the moving company to go to read more

Koa, Kirk, and Lala were THE BEST. These guys were so efficient and so kind and very respectful of my items. They asked lots of questions and made sure that everything was going to the right place. I appreciated their politeness and professionalism. The service was completed in a timely manner as well! Their quality of work was incredible and they took great care of our furniture and boxes. I would recommend Malama Moving to anyone for any size move! I was so impressed. For the quality of service provided, the price was absolutely worth it. read more

As young first time home owners we were not only new to the game but unsure where to start. Our building had a list of recommended moving companies and Malama Moving stood out due to their high score and stellar reviews, with the main highlight for us being that they were easy to work with and had high reviews from local people, emphasizing hospitality and the aloha spirit. Communication before the move was smooth and it was easy to message them through the Yelp app if I had any questions. The day of the move, our moving team, consisting of Brandon, Joe, Isiah and Landon was on time, hospitable and efficient. Checking in with me, offering to assemble things and broke down and loaded up lots of heavy items (bed, large dresser, boxed couch, etc) very quickly, making sure all of them there wrapped and loaded safely. They completed the move within what felt like a hour and maybe 15-30min, which I thought was way faster than what expected. We had a window of time to use the loading elevators at our new condo and they were on schedule, with the unload time being much quicker. I approached the attention to detail they took, asking respectfully which rooms each items went to and even taping up our walls as an extra layer of precaution. The total move was completed in 2hrs and for a price of around $560, I must say it was well worth it and a big value due to them being quick and assisting us in moving about 80% of our house without us having to break a sweat. They live up to their name 100% and to the braddahs Landon, Brandon, Joe and Isiah, a huge mahalo to these first time home owners. You made our first moving experience an easy and pleasant one, in which we will for sure reach out again if we ever are in need of moving services. read more

Very prompt and , well written replies that were responsive and on point. I didn't end up booking this move but I really appreciated their diligence in responding to the inquiry and providing information. read more

Would recommend! I requested a quote on Sunday evening and got an emailed response early the next day, and ultimately was able to schedule the service for moving my furniture later in the week. The quote was $215 an hour with a 2 hour minimum, with a $55 service fee which includes the mileage/fuel, shrink wrap, disassembly/assembly, and stairs. I was given a 3 hour time frame in the afternoon on the day of my move, and was instructed that I would receive a phone call about 30 minutes prior when the movers were on their way. On the day of my move, I was given a phone call early in that time frame and was informed that due to unforeseen circumstances, the scheduled crew would not be able to make it. They apologized profusely and kindly asked if they could reschedule the next day. Luckily, I was able to make the rescheduled move work and on this new day, they called me even earlier than the projected time frame to let me know that they were on their way. I was met with 4 men, Kona, Huch, Albert, and Lealand, who were all friendly and professional. They worked efficiently and organized the items that were being moved. Each item was carefully moved out of my former apartment, which was on the 2nd story of a 2-story walk up, and into the truck. They took time to make sure that my TV and couch were wrapped and protected. I then met them at my new apartment, again on a 2nd story. They got everything offloaded into the new space quickly and with care. It took around 1.5 - 2 hours total. In total, I felt that the price was fair for the quality, professional, and friendly service that I received. read more

MAHALO! to Kirk, Albert and Yasmine who helped me move at the beginning of this month. This was my second time using Malama Moving aka Johnny the Mover, highly recommended by a very satisfied friend. After my first great experience, it was a relief to know I didn't have to waste time doing any research to find a good company, just pick up the phone and make the appointment with Jayne who was very friendly and helpful. I was delighted to find out that the reasonable hourly fee had increased only a little since my last move 4.5 years ago. These are not just professionals who know how to cheerfully carry heavy things (up stairs!) and pack a truck. These people are relocation strategists! I had way too much stuff for the space I moved to and I was a bit freaked, but they had a plan and everything worked out. I was so relieved! I appreciated the care they used moving my things and their great attitude got me through the day. Good people! Another good move! read more

I've used Malama Moving on two separate occasions, and both times Kirk and his team did a great job wrapping and moving my items. The second time Kirk, Ryan, and Lala moved quickly to get my things out of storage and into my new home. Jayne was really helpful and accommodating in scheduling and re-scheduling the crew when my closing date changed. I don't know what I would've done without Malama Moving. They are truly life-savers! Definitely recommend them! read more

They say good help is hard to find these days. And I was having a hard time finding a mover for some household goods. I remember seeing a Malama Moving truck in the neighborhood so I decided to give them a call. And from the initial contact up until the final item was delivered, this moving company is just as solid as the crew that helped me moved my things. Some companies wanted a minimum of 4 hours and others would charge the full hour and not in fractions. The reason I went with this company was because the quote I received was very fair and in a way reflected time of use. When Kirk, Lala and Sefa arrived they tightly packed everything taking the utmost of care for each item by wrapping it in a blanket or using a plastic wrap. They made it look easy going up large flight of stairs and through some tight spaces, never damaging or hitting the wall. The crew worked quickly to pick up my items and get them set up. Malama Moving Company is going to be my go to for all my moving needs and I highly recommend you give them a call if you need some extra help too! read more

Im telling you this is the best movers on island. They do a great job on time, they know how to get it done on a timely manner. The best part is they are priced affordable. This is my 4th time using them AMAZING WORK AND OVERALL SERVICE IS #1....... read more

We were referred to Kona's team by our realtor and had an excellent experience. The team was professional, courteous, and efficient throughout the move. Despite complications with our building elevator, they remained patient and proactive, even taking the initiative to properly pad the elevator themselves. They also assisted with the removal of unwanted furniture and worked diligently to reassemble our bed, which was greatly appreciated. I would highly recommend their services and would gladly work with them again in the future. I also wanted to mention that booking was very easy thanks to Jayne. Her communication was professional, friendly, and made the whole process smooth and stress-free. read more

Kirk, Isaac, Joe, Landon, and Ryan are all professionals--kind, considerate, and full of aloha! There was a small miscommunication at first, but the crew went above and beyond to make things work and ensure everything was done right. I would choose Malama Moving again. read more

Five Stars - Solid A-Team Crew! Had an awesome experience with Malama Moving today. Big mahalo to Koa, Ryan, Brandon, and Landon -- this crew was on point from start to finish. They were very careful with our furniture and belongings, super courteous, respectful, and easy to work with. No rushing, no attitude -- just solid, professional work with aloha the whole time. Also want to give a huge thank you to Jayne, who coordinated everything and sent us this A-team crew. Communication was smooth and everything went exactly as planned, which makes a big difference during a move. Highly recommend Malama Moving, and if you can, definitely request Koa, Ryan, Brandon, and Landon. I'd hire them again without hesitation. Pricing was fair, no surprises, and 100% worth it for the quality and aloha this crew brought. Mahalo nui loa! - Pabbie & Ohana read more

Crew of Koa, Krik & Sefa did an amazing job moving very large appliances and furniture! In 3 hrs they got everything I needed moved, very fast and professional. Great team! Better prices than others I call too. If I ever need movers again, I'll definitely use Malama Moving! Mahalos! read more

I will keep you folks in mind when referring my fellow realtors a moving company... read more

I've used other names in the past like, You Move Me, Honolulu Movers, etc. and I'm not sure if I used requested a quote from Mālama Movers before. Honestly, when I saw their very reasonable quote, I wasn't sure what to expect but I was pleasantly surprised. Their service was by far, the best. They came with 4-5 men crew when, from the quote, I thought would be two at the most. The workers and owner were friendly and helpful. I offered them cold drinks and they said they had drinks in their van. It's nice to hear that the boss treats them well like that. Very satisfied with their service and would highly recommend. Just keep in mind to be more flexible with your time. But they're totally worth it. Thanks Mālama Moving! read more

Excellent service and at a reasonable price. Very responsive to any questions or issues. Highly recommend them when looking for your next movers. read more

Kirk, Elgene, and Isaac from malama moving co were professional and efficient. Made moving a breeze. Also price was competitive and they took great care of our stuff. Would definitely use again read more

Malama Moving - Moving is much less stressful with Malama Moving Co - Movers Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

I have used Malama moving company 5 times now. Jayne is the communications director and handles reservations and dispatch. She is always so kind and genuine and answers any questions. She was even able to pull up a map of the staircase at my new building to where I was moving, in order to ascertain if my couch would fit! My usual guys are Koa, Kirk, Lala, and Albert. They are professional, patient, kind, and skilled. Moving is stressful but these guys helped everything go smoothly. They are so calm and organized, it always gives me a great sense of reassurance and confidence. They showed up early and were patient with getting my cat secured before moving, they put down floor protector mats, they help pack if you have loose ends, etc. They helped me laid out my new carpets and put my bed frame together at the new place, bc it would have been impossible to do on my own. They get stuff done without needing to be micromanaged. They wrap everything that needs to be, in plastic, and always ask if they need confirmation so they never have to move anything twice! The value is excellent. I hired a 4 man crew and it only took a couple hours. These guys never stand around, they work harder than most movers and really take care of the small details too. Mahalo! read more

I've never written a Yelp review before but felt our movers deserve a shout-out. This is our 5th move within Oahu since 1997 and these guys were the best movers we've had. We had a great experience with Malama Moving. Jane from the office was very warm and helpful on the phone. Albert, Kurt, and Koa helped us move from a very full 2-bedroom condo in Kaimukī to a 3-bedroom condo in ʻAiea, and they were excellent from start to finish. They were professional, efficient, and worked hard the entire time, even with a longer-than-expected day. Everything was handled with care, communication was clear, and the move went smoothly. We really appreciated their positive attitude and teamwork. Highly recommend Malama Moving, and especially this crew! Thanks so much Albert, Koa and Kurt!! read more

Thanks Malama moving for helping us get things done. Good timely service! Many Mahalos!!

I know I'm about 10 months late posting this review (LOL), but Malama Moving absolutely deserves one! I just want to extend a huge MAHALO for assisting with our move. The entire process of moving was incredibly stressful-especially when we needed to be out of our previous house within a month (only given less than 2 months notice that our rent was increasing), but your team made things go remarkably smoothly for us. What made us ultimately decide to go with Malama Moving was the flexibility, honesty, and genuine friendliness we experienced speaking to the team over the phone. We also appreciated that you were highly recommended by a friend who had a great experience with your company. On the day of the move, the guys were professional, efficient, and great to work with. Everything went much quicker than we had anticipated. I would absolutely recommend Malama Moving to anyone looking for a reliable and stress-free moving experience. Thank you again! read more

A big mahalo to Landon and his crew for helping me move today. They were on time, professional and very efficient. From start to finish, they completed my one bedroom condo move in less than 2 hours. They took great care in moving my furniture. I highly recommend Malama Moving based on the excellent service I received from Landon and crew. read more

Crew was awesome and quick! They moved my items with care and fast service! Would definitely use again!

It's called Malama Moving but they also do junk removal - yay for us! As usual, we got 2-3 quotes, and in the end Malama won our hearts again - especially since we had such a positive experience with them during our move! As he had once before, Avery showed up to view the job in person and Jayne provided a formal quote to our coordinator. We scheduled in short order on a very favorable day and time - through no fault of theirs, we were running out of time to get all this cleanup accomplished! But Kona, Avery, and Isaiah showed up right on time and set about getting the job done! They're very quiet but super efficient and before we knew it we were calling it good. We know it's twice in one month but we just can't say enough good things about Malama! No matter the service you've hired them for, they are professional, provide fair pricing, and just get it done with a minimum of fuss. Their overall calm demeanor helps take what seems like the most stressful day of your year and makes into a manageable one. My coordinator and I couldn't be more grateful for the crew at Malama! read more
