Excellent service went above and beyond went over the time allotted without extra charge and still provided a quality and friendly experience. read more

Hired this company to move bedroom set. Christian was extremely punctual and communicative. He's a smart & experienced mover. Good eye for measuring space and problem solving. Offered great suggestions on other items I needed repaired. Highly recommend him. Very fun to work with and great w my kids. read more

This is long a over due review, but I have to write it! The mover was extremely nice and professional. even though he came byhimself, he was very efficient and hard working. He moved everything winthin a short amount of time. He helped me to move my 1 bedroom apt from Oakland to San Jose. He loaded and unloaded everything carefully. I highly recommend him!! read more

Man & A Van - Movers Near Me

We needed someone to hang a sign and a picture inside. Christian took care of those items quickly, even while he measured several times, and really looked after the details. My Wine sign will not be falling on us in an earthquake! Then he also hung a TV for my husband and replaced a lighting fixture in my kitchen. Awesome work all around for a great price! Make your to-do list and call Christian! He'll take care of all those chores and give you your whole day back! read more

See all

I have relied on this company for all my moves. I've moved 4 times in 6 years in the San Francisco Bay Area Because of work. I am an older person and I can no longer do things like hang drapes And pictures. Christian does all this work. And my home is beautiful each and every time. read more

My clients needed to move out of their current home in San Leandro before escrow closed on the new home in Stockton -- Christian packed and moved to storage what they had been unable to finish and then moved that and more from San Leandro to Stockton. He then assisted in the set up of large pieces all at a very comfortable price. Another great job! Very accommodating of a fluid schedule read more

Christian and Allen moved me to my new place in Adam's Point and I wouldn't hesitate to hire them again! I moved a studio apartment worth of furniture a half mile but it was no simple move - living on a fourth floor walk up with no clear/easy path to the parking area was a particular challenge. Christian and Allen were timely, cheery, and easy to work with. They did a great job and took real care with my belongings, absolutely nothing of mine was scratched or broke - not even the eggs (I just taped the egg crate shut, threw it in a ziplock bag, and hoped for the best, ha). I've generally had good experiences with moving companies but never took the time to write a review before - which tells you just how impressed I was with Christian and co! read more

Christian was a fantastic mover. I asked him to do a cross country move from the Bay Area to Ohio. He is super friendly, professional, punctual and took extra good care of all the antique furniture that I had to move, taking special care to wrap all the furniture to protect it. If I need to do another move in the Bay Area, or cross country, Christian will be the first person I call. read more

Man & A Van - Christian took care of everything and made my move literally non-stressful. - Movers Near Me

Second move was just as awesome as the first from goltry moving services. After experiencing a break-in robbery, Christian and his sidekick Allen got us out of there and into our new apartment quickly and efficiently with no stress. Last time we had hired them for labor only, but the second time since it was a very last minute move, they provided their own moving truck, packing materials, and blankets so we wouldn't have to worry about any of that! Christian is awesome at what he does. As awful as moving can be, his character and personality really makes it fun. And I love his dog Cherry! I will always be calling out to goltry moving services when in need to move stuff! read more

Moving sucks SO MUCH! I hope I never have to move again, but if I do, I'm definitely calling Goltry! I had about 2 weeks to find movers, and I was moving on Superbowl Sunday. I called a million (or maybe a dozen) movers who advertised on Craigslist. Half of them didn't get back to me, and the other half were closed on Sunday or wanted more than I could afford. I'm so glad I called Christian next! These guys moved me from Fremont to Berkeley, and were speedy, careful, and courteous. I had to hurry up and write this, because it's quite likely I'll be writing another one tomorrow. I've hired them to move a dresser to my new place! read more

Christian handled my move from Oakland to Richmond last week and did an incredible job. It took a bit longer than it should have in way of number of trips, but this was really my fault, as I was not clear about just how much we had to move, and I should have had him bring a truck instead of a cargo van. It was amazing to see how Christian made incredibly efficient use of space and just how much he could fit in a single trip. We did not get everything that day, but he came back the next day with his pickup truck and hauled the last load for me at an extremely reasonable price. One thing that I can say is that Christian really enjoys what he is doing and he took so much stress off of me with his professionalism and his sense of humor. I would definitely recommend Goltry Moving Services and for the next move, they will be the ones I call! read more

I was referred to Christian at Goltry Moving by another moving company that did not have availability on the day I needed. Christian was able to help with a last minute move. He and Raul were awesome -- punctual, smart, efficient, careful, and friendly. Because my move was last minute I was still packing on moving day, but they remained patient and didn't waste a minute. I've moved 4 times in the past two years, and have seen a wide range in terms of quality of movers. I'd put Goltry at the top. read more

This is the second time I've used Goltry Movers. Christian and his crew are great. They are efficient, have a great attitude, a good sense of humor, and make "Moving Day," into a less stressful experience. I highly recommend this moving company. read more

Christian was fantastic. Him and his helper were full of energy throughout the entire loading process (we hired him to help us load U-Pack containers). His methodology was a little confusing at first, but made sense once he explained it - they were going for the most packable items first in order to maximize the space in the container. It confused us because that left bits of stuff in every room of the house. My layman's brain expected them to go one room at a time. But no matter, I felt like they got as much as they could into our containers. Christian even had a last minute thought after they had left that he called to impart. It was very appreciated. I would highly recommend him to anyone. read more

I needed help unloading a Penske truck into a storage unit in Alameda. Christian showed up on time and we knocked it out in less than 1:30. He keeps a positive attitude and even brought a few waters to keep us hydrated. I just needed help with the big stuff, because my wife is very small and can't lift much. So he and I moved all the heavy boxes and furniture. I would highly recommend Goltry Moving Services for anyone who needs extra help with a move. I will probably use him when I need to move my things out of storage. read more

Excellent service with a smile! Christian accommodated my last minute moving needs. He and his partner arrived promptly on time and ready to haul. He took the time to ask me if I was pleased with the service as well. I truly appreciated his availability and professionalism as well as his friendly demeanor. His moving buddy was also just as friendly and helpful. Would recommend Goltry Movers in a heartbeat! read more

I don't think Goltry Moving Services could have made this day any easier! They arrived on time, well prepared and with a great attitude. Their professionalism and expertise gave us all the confidence we needed to be able to actually enjoy and laugh on our moving day. Not one single thing was broken, scratched or damaged and they placed everything where we asked. I highly recommend Goltry Moving Services as they allowed us to enjoy the experience and save our backs! Thank you!! read more

Lets face it. Moving is stressful. Finding someone to help you move is stressful. I recently moved from a house in Alameda to an apartment and I found Christian on Yelp. Hard to argue with all the great reviews so I got in touch with him. I left a message and he called me back promptly. He has a flat fee per hour which I thought was fantastic. He showed up on time with a helper and got to work. They were fast, efficient, and very careful. They finished very quickly and that was that. One very big stress gone. He's a good guy and I highly recommend him. read more

I was so lucky to find Christian. He is the most helpful, patient, hard-working totally positive person I think I've ever met. And he's incredibly efficient with his time and energy, which made my move possible--that is to say, I literally don't think I could have done it with another mover. I was moving a 2000 square-foot home into 400 square-foot cottage and an 8' x 8' storage unit, and it was overwhelming to me. Christian's unflagging can-do attitude was indispensable. I had so much going to Good Will that he did a separate run there first, but I was still worried that the rest wouldn't fit in my storage space. I watched as he "played Tetris" with incredible skill, loading in my storage space in a way that (I couldn't believe it) made everything actually fit! His co-worker, Alan was so kind and hard-working, too. They are super-strong and sweet men. What they accomplished with such smiles and ease...well, I just feel absolutely blessed to have found them. read more

My boyfriend and I were in dire need of someone to help us move our stuff, and that is when he discovered Christian on Craigslist. Christian arrived on time and prepared to move all of our things, and he's a very efficient guy! We sort of made the mistake of buying a UHaul truck that was almost too small for all our stuff, but Christian made everything fit perfectly! He made everything stress-free and quite fun (he's a funny guy). Thanks Christian! We will hire you again if we ever need something to be moved! read more

Wow, I'm absolutely AMAZED by all of these 5 star ratings based on the lack of service I received today. As a matter of fact, he's in the midst of refunding my PayPal payment as I'm typing. He very well may be an excellent laborer, but his communication skills are SORELY LACKING. So, he was supposed to perform a small move (dining room set, lounge chair & bookcase) from Fremont to Vallejo, starting at 10 am. Granted, there was an issue with the outbound end not realizing she had two paypal accounts & supposedly not being able to access her payment. Christian asked me to call her, & she & I smoothed out the confusion thanks to an email sent to both of us by PayPal. She told me to let Christian know that we're on, which I did; however, instead of his just commencing the move, he insists on calling her, as well...really?! I get off of the phone at 8:56 & tell him to TM me upon completion of his verification so that I can deposit his funds into PayPal; I receive a message at 9:12 telling me that if he doesn't show payment by 9:30, we'd need to cancel & reschedule...smh "You wanted me to do job for you as scheduled when your seller didn't receive her monies." See Christian, that would imply that she hadn't been paid prior to my setting up your services, which wasn't ever the case...SHE HERSELF TOLD YOU THAT SHE'D RECEIVED $300, BUT COULDN'T ACCESS IT (which we discovered was due to her having TWO PayPal accounts); YOU tm'ed ME quoting the amount & forwarded the tm from her, asking me to reissue the payment to you to bring with you. WHY would I send you into or PAY YOU for a situation that doesn't benefit ME?! Yet again, you may want to check you so-called communication skills; being lied upon tends to piss people off. I submit payment by 9:27, along with a note expressing my non-appreciation of his time restraints; he then TM's me back at 9:32 stating that he's getting his equipment ready outside...why are you JUST getting equipment ready, seeing that you're supposed to be in Fremont starting the move at 10?!?!?!?! He then says he's sorry I feel that way, & that maybe we should cancel the move & him refund my money. SO, he leaves me in a PINCH AND NOW HAS MY FUNDS TIED UP, as PayPal places a temp hold on refunds. Nope, I wouldn't recommend his services to anyone, & I'm very disappointed that I trusted the ratings here...I may be a fluke, but it's pretty major! read more

Christian is diligent, honest, nice and professional. We were very happy to chose him to disassemble, move and re-assemble a large PAX wardrobe from IKEA. We knew the diss-assembly would be tricky, but he took as much time as he needed to make it happen without breaking nor damaging anything. Thank you Christian!!! read more

Christian is the best! He was flexible, prepared and helpful beyond call. I got more than my money's worth. I learned, once again, that its worth it to hire the pros. Christian had all the tools and skills. He could even load a queen sized fold out sofa on a truck by himself! I'm in awe. His easy going style and outstanding customer service skills made a day that was expected to be difficult into a very pleasant experience. read more

After getting quotes for 5 other movers I came across Christian's "man-and-van" moving service. Don't hesitate one second to call him. He arrived early, with a helper and had the entire pile of boxes in our new place in no time and with zero damage. He's a rock star and is the only person I trust to move my stuff from now on! Thanks Christian! Seriously, call him now. read more

Used Christian from a referral in May 2015, the move was coordinated via text. He relocated my property from a Upack cube in Oakland to my apartment in Alameda. All went very well, he's a great guy. Will use his services when moving again and DEFINITELY share with others as a referral. Thanks, Christian! read more

Christian and his crew helped me move recently and the experience was very stress-free. First he was very punctual and the pre-move communications were very good regarding how everything would work out. He even gave good advice on how to obtain No Parking signs and to post them next to or near the building. I would recommend Christian to anyone who needs their stuff moved and want a stress-free experience. read more

I can't believe I haven't reviewed Christian yet! He did an amazing job moving me from Walnut Creek to Alameda. He took really nice care of my 65" plasma and was fun to talk to and work with! read more

Goltry is great! Quick, easy, and helpful service. Makes moving a lot better :) thanks!

All I can say is that if you have to move and need someone quick, reliable, professional and totally cool - use Christian and his crew. We used them in April and I wish I had written my review sooner. Great and quick service, totally treated all of our stuff so well and was an overall pleasure to do business with. Use this company; you'll be glad you did. read more

Great!! Hired him off of Craigslist and he was one of the best finds. I had another person load my moving truck and they screwed up the whole thing. Christian arrived within minutes of my call and unloaded and reloaded the truck and I was on my way. He packed everything securely and when I reached my destination (PA from CA) everything was still in place.He was courtesy, professional, and knew what he was doing. There's a million movers out there, if you love your belongings I highly recommend him. read more

Christian worked me in on short notice, handled everything with care, charged a fantastic price, and gave good neighborhood tips. Would call him again, for sure. He got my stuff from the ABF U-Pack terminal in Oakland to my Alameda apt. read more

Goltry Moving Services has moved me four times. Christian and his guys are the absolute best in the biz for both local and cross-country moves! Christian and his movers are delightful and refreshing to work with -- personality-plus (no attitude), professional, don't waste time, efficient, extremely knowledgeable, accommodating in any home, office, or apartment environment, always a smile and a laugh. What sets him apart, is the fact that Christian manages to make every move look effortless and provides kid-glove handling of your possessions. Christian really enjoys his business and values his customers. I have worked with many Bay Area moving companies over the last ten years, and Christian Goltry and Goltry Moving Services is the best by far! Call Christian immediately to book your next move -- you will be glad you did! read more

I hired Goltry to move some furniture around the end of January. They arrived on time and were very efficient and friendly. They made sure to wrap the large items and were careful when navigating through tight spaces. And their price was very reasonable. I would definitely move with them again. read more

I'm very happy with my choice of working with him. Very prompt response, very polite, on time and clean, organized equipment. My moving went ultra well because of his professional service and friendly personality. Thanks and I will recommend to my friend! read more

Sooo...Christian saved me a few days ago. I really wanted to get a few pieces from Craigslist, but needed a mover. I also happen to work in San Lorenzo but live in San Francisco, so meeting CL movers after work to pay and move stuff is near impossible. I get to the close of negotiating with one of the sellers only to find out that she will only accept cash...which I can't provide because getting home from SL takes at least an hour everyday. In comes Christian to the rescue. He offered to front the 80 bucks for me, and then just be paid for it as well as his services upon delivery. Okay, so that was save #1. Save #2 happens the next day when the first seller is 15 minutes late and offers to give me not just the bed frame, but the mattress and box spring too for the same price. I'd only negotiated two pickups with Christian (specifically just the bed frame, and then the dresser from Save #1). HE ROLLED WITH IT. HE (all by himself) BROUGHT ME ALL FOUR ITEMS for an amazing price. He smiled throughout, only made one joke about the shittiness of the situation (I deserved far worse), and still insisted on doing most of the delivery alone, though my girlfriend and I were both there offering to help. He earned every bit of the fairly large tip I gave because I realized how lucky I was to have found his number. Thanks, Christian! read more

Fantastic! Christian and his partner were on time (actually, a bit early, which was fine with me). As they moved our furniture, there were very upbeat and pleasant. The speed of the move was impressive too! They loaded up our two bedroom apartment in only two hours and unloaded in about the same amount of time. They continually asked if we needed any other work done; they took the time to mount a flat screen TV in our new place. Although, we have no plans to move anytime in the near future, we would gladly hire them again. We have moved several times in the past few years and Goltry is, by far, the best movers we have ever had. The price is right too. read more

The BEST mover I have ever had!!! I have used 4 movers before, and Christian and Alan were the BEST of the BEST! They moved my 2-bed room apartment in Alameda to a house in Oakland in February 2018. They are the most patient, strong and pleasant people to work with. Booking via text, reconfirmation 48 hours prior via text. They came right on time with 100% positive and friendly attitudes. As the other reviews on Yelp, they work very hard, and were very thorough with my belongings. My puppy was barking at them the entire time and my cat disappeared while moving, but Christian and Alan were very patient with the puppy noise, and Christian helped finding my missing cat while he was loading my stuff on to the truck. Cat eventually was found in my son's room hiding, but I appreciated his kindness towards my pets very much. If I ever move again, I will definitely call Christian. Highly recommended! read more

Christian showed up on time and was very efficient. Nothing was broken or scratched, as he took great care to wrap things and pack them. Real nice guy. I never hesitate to recommend him to any of my coworkers and friends. read more

I could not have had a better experience moving my office. Very friendly, relaxed, got everything in one go, and in just about an hour. Totally recommended! read more

Christian is the MAN! He came with his helper today and moved all my stuff from my one-bedroom apartment to storage in a timely careful and responsible manner. I barely had to lift a finger. He brought the moving truck and all the moving supplies we would need, and was honest and forthright about all costs to me as the client. I would recommend him to anyone and everyone that needs good professional moving help. I will be using him again in the future. Five stars all around! read more
