The two workers were nice and worked hard however, one of my stairs was damaged during the move (see attached pic). On day of move, Mike's Moving (spoke to wife) was notified about the damage and attempted to waive the credit card use fee ($30) as reimbursement for damage. Really?!?! The only way to repair the damage is to replace the stair nose with a new one.... which would obviously cost more than $30. After much discussion, the wife agreed to send someone in two weeks to replace the damaged stair nose. It been almost two months since the move and I'm still waiting. I chose Mike's Moving because of the positive reviews and for the company being licensed and insured. With the surprising price I paid compared to their initial estimate I was quoted ($325 to $550) the movers being late from the originally scheduled morning appointment I had; and the lack of customer service to replace property damage cause by them; I would definitely think twice before booking and would definitely recommend another moving company. read more

Mike's Moving - Movers Near Me

Updated after reading the owners response: I never told him I was happy. I'm just a nice person so maybe he assumed I was happy. I only inquired about another move just to see how much he would charge me after paying him over $800. Sometimes you test the waters to find the true character of a persons integrity. Consumer, notice in his reply he never mentioned how he and his "men" mishandled my stuff. If he wanted to know what and how much stuff he was moving maybe he should've come by to take a look in advance before taking the job. Anywho, it doesn't matter at this point. He has my cash, I found 2 other items that were damaged today when I was doing more reorganizing and I'm pretty sure he knew the stuff broke but didn't say anything so like I said before "DON'T HIRE THIS COMPANY IF YOU CARE ABOUT YOUR STUFF" I have nothing to gain posting the TRUTH about my experience. He and the boys were nice but, not organized and didn't care if any of my stuff got damaged. And for the record I didn't say I was "promised" my stuff would be moved in 4 hours I said it took longer than it should've have taken. "IF" you were organized and stacked things properly you would've made better use of your 26' truck in ONE trip. I've hired several movers in the past and I have never had such a sloppy job that I received from your company and you don't have to worry about me EVER hiring your company again and I will not remove or edit my original post. This is why we have YELP so consumers can read reviews (good or bad) and determine if we should hire your company. Oh and BTW, one of your customers and I was talking at the storage unit and he said the same thing that you mishandled and broke a bunch of his stuff. So obviously you have a history and pattern for mishandling peoples stuff. I read reviews from the Nextdoor app before hiring your company but unfortunately things didn't work out for me with your company. My advice to you is take advice and do better next time. Don't get mad because someone isn't happy with the service they received. I like your kid but don't make excuses about him being bored at home because of COVID, if you're supposed to be a professional company then have a professional staff not your kid who just wants to hang out with daddy on the job and you charge your customers for the added time it took to do the job men should've done. Original Post: The lady who gave me a quote over the phone was really nice but, I was quoted 2 "men", a 26' truck with lift gate and 4 hours. I got what was quoted but little did I know one of the men would be a teenaged young man and a 3rd helper was a little kid about 10 years old. Although the boys worked really hard for their age it took longer than expected and I was charged 3 extra hours over the 4 hours. Total of 7 hours. There was absolutely NO organization. I had all my stuff neatly organized with same sized boxes grouped. all together. My furniture was partially wrapped so all they had to do was cover with moving blankets. Everything was conveniently located in the garage and in the living room right at the front door and only 1 porch step. It doesn't get any more convo to the driveway than that. The one man who did the job was Mike, the owner. Seemed like the move was going fair even though my stuff was literally being stacked any way into the truck I gave them the opportunity to do their job. My thoughts were there must be some sense to the madness. The move was just 2 miles away into a public storage unit down the street. Once they started unloading it just got worse and worse. Stuff was being stacked so unorganized and I quickly realized they were not going to fit everything into my 10' x 30' storage unit. Which BTW, is a larger space than where everything was at my house. I had to rent a 2nd 10' x 30' unit just to fit my things inside otherwise I had no where for my things to go. They had no care for use of space and 2nd unit looked terrible. I kept mentioning organization along the way but, Mike acted like I was bothering him. I had my elderly dad and my service dog with me so my greater concern was to make sure they stayed hydrated inside my car with the a/c on the entire time. The only reason I wasn't as hands on as I would've normally been was because of my dad and my dog. I had no where I could leave them so I was in a very vulnerable position so because of it my personal belongings got mishandled. The next day I went back to try and organize as best possible and found 1 of my expensive custom framed art pieces glass was broken. That was just 1 unit. I haven't even gotten into the 2nd unit yet. It's really hard when I don't have anyone to help me and I paid who was supposed to be professionals CASH only to find out they're service was like I hired a bunch of kids to move my stuff. Over $800 and it took 7 hours to move my stuff less than 2 miles away, 2 trips back and forth and he wanted cash. DO NOT HIRE THIS COMPANY if you care about your items. read more

Mike's Moving - Movers Near Me

Please do not hire this company He lies to get the job he promises 4 guys and only sends two guys he takes advantage of people because he knows that they will not turn them away because they need to move that day but I did turn them away and went with JFK Instead and loved them. When we called the owner about the error he denied and got really offensive and started to argue and said that he recorded our conversation but did not wanted to let us listen but also he never mention we were going to be recording while on the phone which makes it illegal. Save yourself a headache and do not hire them. Thank you read more

I hired Mikes Moving to unload my 26 foot Uhaul. They were fast and , careful with my furniture I would high recommend them to anyone moving . They where very helpful setting up my bed frame and even moved my furniture a few times when I asked them too. Thank you. I would definitely recommend you to my family and friends. June 28 2019 I called mikes moving company again to help me Move. Moving is stressful enough and with this company they always answer the phone and have only the best people working with them. We had Phil and Don help load today and they are Very professional. I'm so happy to have found this company move our furniture. The price they give you is the price they charge you. No hidden fees. They do not work slow . They are very careful with the furniture. read more

First I want to start off by saying how amazing our mover Greg was! He really put his all into our move especially after an unfortunate circumstance occurred where the other mover left us abruptly on the job so all we had was Greg. I do have to say that I was worried with one mover, I even tried reaching out to Mike to see if he was sending another mover, but Greg assured us that he would get the job done and boy did he get it done. Greg buckled down stayed professional and got the job done. I do have to say that I didn't think our move was going to be as complicated as it was especially having to take our apartment door off to get our fridge in and having to load our sofa in through our second floor balcony but Greg knew exactly what to do and how to do it. My husband helped with the fridge problem and yea it was a problem because that's not a standard small sized apartment fridge. Yes you hire movers to not help, but given the situation we offered to help and we didn't mind because Greg was working his butt off we wanted to help. We especially needed to help with the sofa loading through balcony problem since we didn't have a second mover but nonetheless Greg was there to get it done and helped tell us how to pull the sofa up once he lifted it to us and he quickly ran up and took over. Greg we are truly happy and appreciate of you taking a two person job, being professional, and rolling with the obstacles to get our move completed! Unfortunately our move did take longer than expected but that's understandable given we only had one mover when it came to unloading. And my husband and I weren't as prepared as we thought. We had a lot of little stuff unpacked that we could have packed but we know better now. Pack everything up so it makes it easier! Two years ago because of covid we had to downsize to live with family for a bit so I came from a house to having to put everything into storage. I used mikes movers for that job as well and during that job Mike and another mover packed and unpacked everything so quickly it was crazy how fast they did everything. I was highly unprepared for that move but Mikes movers got it done so quick. That was the reason why I picked them again for this job of moving from my storage to an apartment. My furniture is fit for a home not an apartment so it probably made everything harder because the sofa and fridge were a struggle to move into a smaller apartment much less a second floor apartment. After a few years here at this apartment we plan to move back to a house and we will definitely be using mikes movers for the third time. We will probably ask for three movers given the difficulty of the fridge and sofa but who knows It may just need two people but Mikes movers knows what they are doing and for when that time comes we FOR SURE will be requesting Greg again! Mike, you have an amazing dedicated mover on your hands because Greg was truly the best. He worked his butt off to get the job done! He managed to do what I thought was not possible, which was bring our sofa and fridge that is meant for a large house up to a second floor apartment and remain professional through every obstacle. Thank you Mike's Movers and thank you Greg! read more

Since using Mike's Moving in 2017, I've referred them a few times. Everyone who has followed through end up thanking me profusely. Well, I sure can't take the credit. You guys rock. Every time. Bummer you don't do long distance moves, but that's okay. I'll continue to refer you and thank you for doing great work. One thing though, you really should be more professional and change the company name to Michael's Moving. Just kidding. read more

We THOUGHT we had an appointment with another moving company, and they didn't show due to bad communication. Now I was packed up, and no mover, and a lot of stress. Called Mike's and they were able to come the next day. Good communication but the BIGGEST deal is the mover's themselves...Brandon and Daniel. SUPER clean-cut...which was important to me since the other company looked like they were manned by tweakers casing their next heist. So impressed I invited both guys to send my company resumes. I gave them a tip which they were happy with but was so impressed with them as young men and had to throw them some more. My move could not have been better. And the price was great. Remember folks most moving companies don't supply mattress bags. Get some. read more

Fantastic local business! I was more than unsettled by hiring movers for the first time (my friends are now--like me--too old for pizza and beer as a thank you for getting a slipped disc), but Mike & his crew did a superb job troubleshooting when my house's driveway was perched too high and did a great job wrapping up my glass curio and shelves. They were courteous, friendly and quite skilled at getting things packed in the four hours needed, and moved things with such care and speed that they moved it all to my new residence (also in Riverside) in under 2 1/2 hours. Please support local businesses like this (67% of money stays in your community rather than a faceless chain which only recirculates 17% back to your community). Mike's Moving is a great resource and I give them my highest recommendation. read more

I hired Mike's Movers to move the contents equivalent of a one bedroom apartment. I was told the movers would bring plastic wrap, blankets and tape to wrap my furniture for protection and all tools needed to take apart and assemble my furniture, 90% of my contents were in 12 Rubbermaid containers, also a 4 post Queen Bed, dresser, living room accent chair, living room accent table, small dining table with 4 dining chairs, 2 recliner living room chairs, 3 large paintings, 43" TV, large wall clock and approximately 15 large shopping bags. Upon arrival the movers advised me they did not bring plastic wrap to wrap my furniture NOR did they bring tape so the blankets could be secured around my furniture. They talked about going to the 99 cents store to get tape after asking me if I had any?! But they never went. They were more concerned about the 15 shopping bags that were there than the fact that they didn't have the correct tools to protect my furniture then about an hour into loading the items into the truck they began to disassemble my bed and realized they didn't bring the correct tools either!! Thankfully my friend was there and he offered his tools for the movers to borrow. Mike ensured with the little amount of furniture I had, it should have only take his movers no more than 1 hour to load the items and get to the new place. We were at 2 hours at the old place and the movers were still there!! We were finally ready to leave, and the movers said "we cannot transport your plant or TV, it's our policy" no problem I said, I'll take them in my car! At the new place the movers busted their butts to get everything unloaded and assembled within that ONE since I had only been quoted for a 3 hour job. I had been in contact with the office the entire time, sharing my disappointment throughout the move. The time went over by 10 minutes and I was told "as a courtesy I wouldn't be charged?" I had made it very I had no intention of paying any more than the initial $399 for the job. Fast forward 2days and I'm unpacking items and I get to my wall clock (that's pictured) I find that's it's broken in the back, I immediately call MIKE and speak to him about it, first he claims I waited too long to call, I said it wasn't even 36 hours? Second he said it's not their policy transport clocks! I said your drivers did. The drivers admitted transporting the clock, but they said it was already broken!! MIKE said he wasn't going to turn it into his insurance company because they would question why they went against policy. So he offered $20 for my $100 clock, I told him to keep his money and I'll just give YELP review and he said "he didn't care" Very disappointing to say the least in this compant read more

I have used Mike's Moving 3 times in the last few months and I cant tell you how elated I am with them. This last time we had Joe and Donny help us move. They are so amazing!!

This is the 2nd review I have written and all of their employees are wonderful! I highly recommend them!!! Thank you so much! read more

After doing much research I came across Mikes Moving. I called them and got an affordable quote. Mike and his mover were extremely friendly, hard working and got the job done in such a reasonable time. My belongings were kept protected from any damage and they never hesitated to help. I would most definitely go with this company again if I decide to move. They are excellent. read more

These guys were fantastic movers but the boss on the phone kept finding new reasons to charge me more. For this and this and this, never a flat price, open ended. Delt with lots of these types, they're so good but at the end, watch out! read more

Mike's Moving - Movers Near Me

Mike's was very responsive and was able to accommodate me the same day. There were 2 movers... Blake and Mike - These gentleman were most courtous, meticulous friendly and hardest working guys that have ever moved me. I have moved quite a few times and have yet to meet 2 movers who worked harder than these guys AND with all smiles. It was a hot day and Later I found out I was the last move of the day... It didn't matter a but as these guys were like worker bees... They met challenges and obstacles but was able to work thru each and every one. Overall Mike's got a great moving service and I think much of it is because he has a great group of hard working guys. I fully recommend Mike's moving and would use them again if I move again. read more

Greg and Lee showed up on time and toured the house to see what all needed to be moved. I wasn't as ready as i should have been but they went the extra distance and helped a lot. They pre-wrapped all my furniture and loaded everything into the truck. I was discussing the amount of time with my wife and one of the movers mention how long he estimated it was going to take, which was over the 4 hours. He did explain he could have everything loaded taken to new address and unloaded in 4 hours if i didn't care about the condition of my property. I like the honesty. They worked hard and they worked fast, they did a great job. I would definitely use their services again and would recommend anyone to them. read more

Mike's Moving Company is the absolute BEST!!! They arrived and knocked out fully packing our 28 ft Trailer in 3 1/2 hours. Mike and Antonio were super efficient and professional. I knew this already because they handled a smaller move for me a while back so I knew exactly who to call. If I could afford it, I'd fly them out to my destination to unload. I promise you will not be disappointed if you call them for your move. Thanks so much guys. read more

Joe and Chris were a pleasure to work with! They made sure any fragile furniture/electronics were protected, took extra care not to brush any of the walls, and even wiped their feet before coming in and out of the house! Would definitely recommend this service and specifically team Joe and Chris. For price reference, we moved our stuff from a 1 story in Riverside (near Trautwein and Alessandro) to another 1 story in Beaumont (5 miles from Highland Springs exit). Total driving and work time was 4hrs and we paid $560 for everything (we also gave them a tip on top of that ) read more

Mike's Moving is absolutely amazing!!! My apartment was cleared out in less than 2 hours and considering the amount of stuff I had (from previously moving from a house)...I was baffled how 2 guys alone made it happen so quickly. They moved us into our new place within 2 hours as well. They put everything in its respective room, moved the beds to their exact spots and put everything back together!! As long as I am in the vicinity of their services - I will not use any other moving service. Do yourself a favor and hire Mike and his team!!! read more

Mike's moving is a great company to trust your moving needs with. From the very beginning Mike was very easy to talk to, and very quickly gave me a quote over the phone after answering a few questions. Aric and Marcos assisted me with my move today, and were nothing short of amazing. They arrived promptly at our very early 7 AM start, and wasted no time getting to work. I was worried about my expensive desktop and monitor as they were not wrapped at all, however every single valuable was handled with extreme care. read more

We used Mike's Moving twice in the last month, first as we were staging our house for sale, then to move out the furniture, partly to storage and partly in the LA area. We have been really happy with the moving teams each time. In the second, bigger move, Joe and Donnie worked really really hard and fast, beating our time expectations by a lot, even though the move was quite a big bigger than we had estimated (stuff tends to pile up in corners and closets, you know, more than you think!) They arrived bright and early at 7:30, as scheduled, and got right to it. They had the truck loaded with the stuff that needed to move. Impressively, they managed to sort the stuff at our storage unit, then fit everything into the one we had (I had actually reserved a second unit to be sure we'd fit, and save packing time, but they did it with ease). Then a good hour's drive to our new place, and they hit the ground running (literally) again. With only two guys, there were the typical small glitches you get with any move. One piece of furniture got a cracked base, and a trash can was overtopped a bit too much and damaged. Carrying the heaviest piece up a doubled-back stair, they did bang the ceiling and leave a few scuffs on the stairs, but just superficial. And even at the end, they were still running! These guys are tough as nails, were cheerful, professional, polite, and paid attention. The moving teams are great, and the price is more than competitive - but be aware that working with the company is a bit odd. You pay a fifty dollar credit-card deposit, which is fine. But you then get an e-mail that says they won't do _any_ packing, which doesn't seem to be true -- but they are not packers, they are movers. And they insist on final payment in cash only. Just be aware. Everything felt like it was on the up-and-up, the price was good and they didn't try any tricks to get the final total higher - but they definitely do things their way. Well worth hiring. read more

I just recently moved residences and contracted this company. I give these guys 5 Stars! they were prompt, fast, pleasant, and professional. I was so happy I even treated them for a simple Mcdonalds breakfast sausage sandwiches! Lol! They completed the whole transfer from pickup to loading to traveling and unloading i=to my new place within reasonable time. We just went beyond minimum time for only a few bucks. Wth regards to their prices, it was reasonable! others I have canvassed charges too much! - for the same no. of men, time, distance, and size of truck! Try Mikes moving guys, you will be very happy with their service and will save you a lot! Next time I move, I will definitely give these guys a ring! Rowell T. read more

Mike is so concerned that it takes him FOUR MONTHS to respond, and then it's nothing but a bunch of bullshit lies that my Labradoodle could see through. Read my previous comment and compare his. Mine is (was! not now) calm and full of details; his is the rant of someone who wasn't there but pretends he was. "ASIAN HATE"???? What the hell are you even talking about? No one said anything about anyone's race. How would anyone even KNOW what your race is? You're such a damned liar on top of everything else. I never said anything to that *thing* on the phone. And WHY THE HELL did she repeatedly call me after???? Who's the psycho? YOU. Clearly and forever YOU. PLEASE, MIKE....... GO AHEAD AND POST THE CALL. read more

The staff at Mike's Moving works expediently and professionally. They were able to re-locate the contents of a one bedroom apt. in a timely fashion. I was pleased to note that they moved every object with due care and attention. Both of the movers acted with a sense of urgency to keep the cost down. Credit to Mike's Moving on a job done properly. Thank you for moving all my boxes down 3 flights of stairs! read more

Thomas & Julio were great to work with! They were friendly, professional & very hard working! They didn't waste any time & got straight to business! They moved my whole apartment to my new house which is about 45 mins away. Not one item was damaged in the move. They unloaded all my stuff even quicker than they loaded it. They packed that truck perfectly! Mike was also a pleasure to speak with on the phone.. Very friendly & professional.. Not to mention they are very reasonably priced! I paid only $497 for my whole move & tipped them! They were awesome! I would definitely use them again in the future and I would definitely recommend them to anybody! Thanks guys! read more

Mike's Moving - Movers Near Me

I did a lot of research online to find a good moving company and i came across Mike's moving. I cant say enough good things about Mike's moving. Mike arrived on time 7am and helped me move from a 3rd floor apartment to 3rd floor apartment with no elevator (sorry guys). They moved very quickly and efficiently. They put moving blankets on furniture and take a good care with boxes. I felt like the money i paid wasn't even enough for their services. I'd recommend Mike's moving to anyone i know moving in the area. read more

Very disappointed with this company! I spoke with Mike, described our house, and told him about an island we wanted to move. The guys showed up with a small truck, spent way too much time trying to stack everything up, and had to leave 2 chairs and no way could fit the island! My husband and I had to go back the next day to get the chairs and a few additional items that wouldn't fit and now have to make other arrangements to get the island. The movers were great, although we did end up with a few scratches on a few pieces of furniture. Would not recommend this company. read more

Nothing short of hacks, my two movers busted my ice machines water line on my refrigerator! They affirmed to me over the phone that the had appliance dolly for moving my refrigerator and my wood hutch cabinet as well as my wood TV stand! They did not and moved these items with a regular dolly and ratchet straps without epoxy hooks and they did not use a protector like blanket, foam, cardboard to protect the corners and faces sides of my refrigerator, hutch cabinet, TV stand. My refrigerator is 1 year old and they put a puncture/gouge hole in back of my refrigerator, scratched gouged my hutch cabinet, and scratched the hell out of the end edge of my TV stand!!!

There were 3 men, one child, and 2 trucks that moved my items from 3 storage units in Riverside, to Cathedral City. The trip did take longer than 4 hours, but the price was still reasonable. They managed to completely fill up the 2 trucks and get All of my items out of storage unit. I packed everything myself and a little more than half of the items were not packed in sealed boxes, and were various sizes. They did pack everything in the truck and unpacked everything after driving it to Cathedral City. I was very satisfied with the service, as their price was lower than the big companies I called. read more

Do not hire this ROGUE moving company. I made a mistake of working with this unscrupulous mover this weekend and it was a nightmare to say the least (I will type up full details later). Turns out this company is operating illegally. They are not licensed!! Please check with the California Public Utilities website https://apps.cpuc.ca.gov/apex/f?p=203:35:0::NO:RP and you will see that it been suspended. The company ID is 191252. I hired them based on the reviews here but do not trust them. Moving is stressful and you do not want to even risk dealing with a deceptive moving company. The mover even threatened my husband physically and held my items hostage until I paid them which was double what I was quoted. Feel free to message me further. I will make sure this company is shut down so others will not go through the nightmare we went through. read more

These guys are FAST and efficient! It took 1 hour for them to load and unload my 1 bedroom belongings! The rates are great! I did have to be rescheduled since they had over booked.

I couldn't be more happier with their service. I booked with a previous company who cancelled on me less than 24 hours before my move. Mikes took care of me on short notice. They hustled, were hardworking and very polite. I definitely recommend using them. Thanks again for helping me out last minute. read more

Run and do not walk away from these guys. Liars and extremely unprofessional. We were warned not to use them, and we hired them anyway. They were to be at my father in laws house at 7 am and when they didn't show up we had to call them. One excuse after another and one lie after another we finally had to cancel the service and our whole day was ruin by these guys. Just STAY away. Trust me. We should have listened to our friend's and we got burned - don't do the same. read more
