Take the stress out of moving. Get the best moving crew, for a reasonable price. Your moving on a time crunch and need to be out -- by 7 tonight. Stress is kicking in. You don't have enough friends that can help. This was the situation for my friends when I went to their house, last Sunday. John, the owner of Mindful Movers, and his crew came to help. His men arrived first. John was delayed because of the alternator went out on their truck. So, he sent the guys in his personal car. He knew the importance of the job; he didn't skip a beat and went quickly to rent a van to bring their supplies. The Mindful Movers assessed the house quickly and efficiently. Being super polite, courteous, and attentive to my friend's needs. Getting their bearings, each man hustled to do his part. Two guys were immediately wrapping the furniture in cellophane, protecting it from scratches and dirt. Another two guys were transporting boxes into the moving pod. The last man arranged the cargo in the pod. He made magic happen, getting the most space out of every inch. John came thirty minutes later with the dollies, blankets and floor coverings. He immediately wrapped all the doors with blankets. Protecting the doorways from scratches and dings by the furniture and appliances. Then to the stairway and did the same for the hand rail. I have personally moved over 23 times myself. The only other people I have seen do something like this, was commercial movers. That is the level of professionalism these guys bring. Early in the day, my friends and I were packing; I told the husband with the help of Mindful Movers we should be done by 5pm. Boy, was I wrong! John and his mighty crew were done by 3pm. They had packed 3 -- 16-Foot Containers to the max. Don't get sub par help. Get professional moving experience with Mindful Movers. They are worth the price. read more

Beware!! I inquired for move services with Mindful Movers and was given a pretty low quote for two men and a truck. I asked if they were licensed and they said yes and provided a city business license number. I then asked if they had a Moving license in California. They told me to look up their Moving license myself because they don't post that information because of "fraudulent reasons" . I did and wow that was educational. Please see attached photo's. (Update: Yelp removed the photos of our conversation stating the photos were against guidelines, so if you want to see them just message me.) They are NOT licensed with PUC!!! (CA Public Utility's Commission) Plus I discovered that Moving companies are actually required by CA state law to disclose their PUC number whenever advertising and give out that number when asked and when I told him this his response is also attached. No wonder they had such low prices. I thought because they were advertising on Yelp that meant that they were a legitimate company, it does not - I was very surprised to discover that yelp DOES NOT check licensing. All that they require is a business card and a website----OMG----- I can only imagine how many other Moving companies don't have proper CA PUC licensing and/or insurance yet advertise on YELP. Consumer Beware!!! Some people may say "what difference does it make?" You might consider possible damage to the structures that you are moving in and out of or just the fact that some unaccountable possibly uninsured guys are going to put everything you own in a big truck and drive away , or if they hurt themselves and sue you the property owner!!! I decided to use a legitimately licensed company for several reasons but also the company I work for insisted on that for reimbursement. read more

If you care about a company having the correct licensing and insurance in accordance with California law then don't choose this company. I wanted to use them because of the good reviews, but when I asked them what their license number was I received no reply. They want you to pay them in cash and don't carry the proper insurances to be licensed. They are operating without a moving license, just wanted to let people know in case you want to use a licensed company to move you like I do. I pay taxes in this state and there are regulations in place to protect us as consumers. These people think the law doesn't apply to them. It hurts everyone when unlicensed companies undercut the market, don't pay taxes, and don't follow the law. By all of the reviews they have clearly been getting away with this for a long time. Why they don't get a license after all these years they have been on yelp is beyond my comprehension. They choose to skirt the law. I can't support a business that has a complete disregard for the law as this company clearly does. It is sad, obviously there must be a reason why they haven't gotten a license in all of the time that they have been providing moving services. I don't know what that reason is but I could take some guesses. I'm not going to though, instead I am going to chose a company that has the proper license, insurance, has passed background investigations, pays taxes, and qualifies to operate a legitimate moving company. read more

This review was abandoned and forgotten in the corners of the internet, but I really had a good experience and want to give credit where credit is due- 2 years later! Prior to contacting Mindful Movers I had a bad experience with another company in the area and a laughable quote from a third. I was dubious, but made the call anyway. A friendly young man took all of my information, answered all of my questions, and assured me that he was up for the job. He arrived with one other helper and they lived up to their promise! The owner was professional and personable the whole time. They took care of my belongings as if they were moving their grandmother's china collection. I moved a one-bedroom apartment to another town 45 minutes away. Everything was completed in a short time, but about 1 hour past the timeframe quoted. He kept to the quoted price anyway and kept apologizing as if he were somehow responsible for traffic and unexpected furniture issues. Wishing the owner well, and thank you for making a stressful situation much easier to handle during an otherwise exhausting time in my life! read more

We did not get what John promised, we received more! The standards he showed us truly are his mission statement. Articulate, extremely calming presents (we were blessed with John and Jerrel) efficient and extremely knowledgeable leaving us with no doubt or reasons to worry. Our move started in South LA, and from the start there was one bump in the road after another, which of coarse effects the entire process. Mindful Movers continuously reminded me that everything would be fine, and because of them the end leg of the move was wonderful. I will be using them for any future moves and any jobs where I need strong smart men. I can not thank them enough. read more

John and Kino (sp?) were fantastic with moving my home and doing so carefully and efficiently. Not only that, but they are some of the most polite guys I've met in addition to simply being friendly. The weather was in the triple digits and they worked like the heat didn't phase them and never slowed down. They also offered to put together my bed and dining room table, which was not necessary and much appreciated! I had never used a moving company before so having this as my first experience has set the bar pretty high. I will definitely utilize MM for my next move! read more

John and his crew were GREAT! We built a new home therefore our move-in date/time wavered and he was really understanding and worked with us. I was recommended to him through a friend and found a deal on Groupon. I'd use Mindful Movers 10x's over. It was a great experience and they made it very easy and stress free. It was the first time my husband and I had ever used a moving service so we were anxious and unsure about it but they wrapped everything really well and took great care of our things! Not to mention the guys were all around good, nice, funny guys! read more

I can not speak highly enough of these gentlemen. From the first time we spoke on the phone to get the move scheduled, to the last second of the move, these men are amazing. I had to cancel my move literally the night before it was scheduled and he was so gracious with the situation. Made me feel very secure knowing I was in great hands. Being a bit disabled myself, these guys took the initiative to handle my move the best way possible. Hiring them again in 2 weeks to move my grandmother out of state. Thanks guys, you rock!!! read more

I just had the great pleasure of John, Herb & Jordan loading my truck for big move out of state. From my first contact to the end of the job- John was always efficient, responsive, helpful and polite. He made an emotional and potentially stressful event so easy and he managed to get everything I needed into the truck tho it took his talented space management to get it all in. I already referred a neighbor- don't hesitate to use their services. You'll be glad you did at the end of your moving day read more

John and his staff are professional, efficient and super friendly. John is in constant contact with you, honest and easy to work with. Before he and his crew arrived he called to let me know there would be a new employee and he would be training as they were moving us and asked if I was okay with this. I mean who does that? They moved very quickly, and they are organized. Highly recommend John and his team any day!!!!!!! If and when I move again I will be using Mindful Movers!!! read more

I have moved quite a bit in my life and have hired numerous moving company's, mindful movers was by far the best experience I have ever had moving.

I would highly recommend using mindful movers for your next moving experience. read more

Without a doubt these guys are remarkable. I hope not to move again, but if I did I definitely will call them to move me. They went above and beyond in moving my belongings. They were courteous and friendly and treated my belongings like they were theirs. They wrapped & unwrapped fragile pieces. I'm telling you, these guys are the best. I definitely recommend Mindful Movers for your next move. read more

John, Robert and Andrew were such a pleasure to work with. This was the easiest move we have ever had. They were extremely respectful and professional. They took extreme care with our furniture. They were amazing and I have referred them to a friend already. I would use them in a heart beat if I had to move anything again. Thank you again John, Robert and Andrew. Bethany Kaiser read more

My family and I have moved many times over the years, including multiple cross-country moves using "professional movers" from the big companies, and Herbert, Larry, and Keeno were the best crew we have ever met. They were on time, extremely polite, conscientious (they wrapped everything and were so careful with our belongings, including our piano) and efficient. Highly recommend. read more

I have moved many times over the years and I have to say this was by far the easiest of all. The owner, John delivered exactly what was promised. No hidden or last minute costs. Very professional. John and Jarrell worked nonstop until the job was done. This included heavy furniture being lifted upstairs on a warm day. I highly recommend this company and will use them again. read more

I'm so glad I chose Mindful Movers for moving day! All of the team members got right to work, they wrapped everything up very nicely.

I would definitely recommend Mindful Movers to friends and family. read more

These movers know their business!! Highly professional team took great care of all the furniture and boxes. John and Jordan were super polite and very professional. John answered all my questions--and I had quite a few--prior to the move. They were on time, worked hard, and charged a fair price. I definitely will use them again when the need arises. read more

I moved from a long distance away and Mindful Movers was selected to unpack the moving truck when it arrived at my new home. They were very professional and efficient, but more importantly very friendly and very thoughtful of my possessions and my new home. I would definitely use them again. I don't think it gets any better than this. read more

Jonathan and his team are outstanding!! Highly recommend this business. I have white couches and they took such great care of my items. Nothing damaged or broken. Very professional and curious. I liked how they wrapped my couches and furniture. Set up my washer and dryer. Im definitely calling Mindful Movers in the future!! read more
