Very happy to recommend Platinum Movers. Robert answered my messages immediately and gave a clear pricing structure. The guys who came were on time, fast, friendly and careful with my things. What more do you need from a Moving company? I was happy with the final price and I would absolutely call them for the next move. Platinum was recommend to me by a friend who had the recommendation from another friend so happy to continue this chain! read more

Robert and his crew were amazing! Made the whole experience of moving (which we know already sucks) a way easier and a much needed smoother experience. He is so genuine & would use again 100% read more

Platinum is truly an amazing team of professionals. We couldn't have gotten better men to help with our move. First our grand piano down a spiral staircase they made look effortless!! Then coming back and packing up our house loading delivering and unpacking. It was a last minute move we had due to escrow. They handled it with such care. Very intelligent men and just a joy to be around. I can't thank them enough! We will refer Platinum to everyone we know moving. read more

Amazing moving company! Very professional and communicative! Highly responsive. I had a last-minute move needed for the next morning and called later in the evening prior, to my surprise they were able to schedule me in! These guys really came to the rescue! Also this company is very reasonably priced and beat all of the other quotes I was getting for my move! The men who showed up were respectful, trustworthy, and kind. I highly recommend! They also move piano and other niche items in case you're looking for that. Really great crew, thanks guys for making my moving experience so pleasant. You took all the stress and headache out of the move! read more

EDIT - NEW REVIEW: 5 Stars Robert called and texted me soon after my review went live. He let me know he had Covid really bad and was in the hospital during the time I was trying to reach him and offered to reimburse our lamp at full cost plus an extra $100 for the inconvenience. I really appreciate the gesture and can in good conscience change my review to a 5 star review! ORIGINAL REVIEW: 3 Stars I wanted to give a 5 star review as the guys that came to do the move were friendly, professional, and very hard working. They were SUPER quick with moving the boxes that we had ready. I did wish they asked for a little more direction once they were done moving the boxes we had ready though -- they just started packing and moving the stuff that we didn't have ready so now we're unable to locate some things. But that's our bad for not having everything ready (but it's hard with a baby!) At the beginning, they arrived on time at 9am but had the wrong truck and wrong number of people. We ordered a truck for 2 bed 1 bath, with 3 workers. They arrived with a smaller truck and only 2 workers. It wasn't the crew's fault, I think Robert had just entered the info incorrectly. They had to go switch trucks with the other people who took the big truck and call one more worker in so we didn't get to start until close to 10am. They started the clock for us at 9:25 though (but whatever). They had to make a second trip and on their trip back that should've only been 10 minutes (15 minutes max with traffic), they didn't show up for about 30 minutes. I get that they need a lunch break because they are human and were working super hard but they never clocked out for that break. Regardless, we didn't argue with them about the time they clocked and gave them a tip as well. Robert came to check in during the move to see how things were, which was nice. I only wished he kept the same level of customer care after we paid. We realized the lamp shade of our floor lamp was broken during the move. I sent him a photo and asked him what the process was to get a reimbursement twice and he never bothered to respond, even though on their contract it says that we are entitled to a reimbursement. In terms of cost, these are his rates: $85 per man $170 2 men $255 3 men I'm not sure if he purposely under quoted to get the sale or we just seriously had way more stuff than he anticipated, even though we chatted on the phone and I explained everything. But his quote says $730 total for 2 guys at 4 hours (even though I said 3 guys) and a $50 fuel/mileage charge. One of the workers did tell us at the beginning that this would take at least 6 hours though. We appreciated the heads up for that at least. The total ended up being $1,948 total for 3 guys at 7 hours (including a $50 fuel/mileage fee and a surprise $50 supplies charge) + tip. This is the first time we've hired movers for a house move and it was definitely necessary with a baby. Overall, I'm glad they helped us move because we really needed it but cost-wise, I feel like there were hidden fees and they were being a little shady with how they charged us for time. We didn't argue with them but I also wouldn't recommend them. Also, Robert didn't seem to care about providing any customer service for things being broken after he's been paid. read more

Platinum Movers - Broken floor lamp shade from the move - Movers Near Me - Santa Barbara, California

Amazing moving company! Incredibly professional! The guys showed up on time, the cost was incredibly reasonable, and they went above and beyond in packing my furniture so that we didn't have any damage. Would recommend this company and team any day! It can be hard to find movers you can trust but these guys are it! read more

Eric has been the best, I had needed all my boxes to be transferred to my house here in Santa Barbara, afraid from the rain tonight. he was here so quickly and had gotten all my childhood Memories and my mothers belongings into our home safely without a dent, scratch or anything that has meaningful to break. My puppies have been in the way, he was so polite and patient to them. Graciously he got our things together. Couldn't ask more from some such a helping hand. Looking forward to calling you guys in the future. read more

Platinum Movers is the kind of company that reminds you why people dread moving. They showed up two hours late without so much as an apology. The crew? Rough around the edges and couldn't be bothered to crack a smile. But the real gut punch came at the end--after walking through our entire home and giving us a firm quote, they decided to double the price on the day of the move. No shame. No explanation. Just a wildly inflated bill and a take-it-or-leave-it attitude. After 15 minutes of back-and-forth with the owner, I still got squeezed for about 25% more than I was originally quoted. It felt like a bait-and-switch, plain and simple. If you value your time, money, or sanity--look elsewhere. There's nothing "platinum" about being misled and overcharged. read more

Moved many items from inside a large house to the outside (for pick up). Platinum movers did a great job at the last second. They were quick, responsive and went the extra mile. Definitely recommend them. read more

The Dream Team! Moving sucks! Nobody likes it. Nobody WANTS to deal with it. But when you have the right support, it CAN be a positive experience! Eric, Omar, and Juan made our moving experience so much easier. They were efficient and caring with all of our items. II will never rent a uhaul and do a move on our own ever again. If we ever need to leave the place that we just relocated to, I can only hope that this crew of three is assigned to us! Thanks Platinum Movers! You've made a positive impression on us, and I'm happy to share our experience! read more

Not sure about their company quote and the final cost...had to pass because of this I shopped a moving company....decided to use another one read more

This is my second positive review for Platinum Movers. I work for a local nonprofit organization and we used Platinum Movers to load and unload our UHauls the day before and day after our events. Our building is on the second floor with no elevator and they loaded 80+ boxes, 10 tent, 10 tables and many breakable items in under two hours. I know they must have been tired but they never complained. They arrived in uniform shirts, were respectful, organized, efficient and very kind. Immediately after the event, they met me at the office and unloaded everything back into our lobby and stayed longer than what we agreed on with no mention of it. I will hire them again. read more

Robert and Ryan handled my move from on top of a mountain (really) imto Ventura well, safely, quickly and carefully. Good communication and service all around. This is hood value for time spent! read more

The guys that did the work were Fast, friendly and and treated items with respect. Helped move some items out to be given away and moved other items to multiple locations. read more

Movers were very slow, took smoke breaks, had to go get gas, all while on the clock and charged me for that time. Damaged my $3500 couch and owner was very dismissive on the damage. He even said he would come over the next day to see what he could do after I sent him pictures. Owner no called/no showed. At the end, they tried to charge be more than $1,000 more than what I was quoted. Ended up paying well more than double what I was quoted. Overall, was very displeased with the company, the laziness of the workers that were sent over, and the lack of caring from the owner. If I had to recommend a company, it would not be them based on my experience with them. read more

I am more than happy with this business!!! They went above and beyond to get the job done. The owner even showed up with another guy to help out so we could get the job done in two days. I highly recommend this business! read more

I just had Rob and Nick move my apartment today. They did everything on time. They were very careful with all of my items which was my biggest concern! Nothing came broken out of my boxes and none of my furniture was carelessly thrown around or scratched. The quote was extremely reasonable especially in comparison to quotes I have gotten from other movers in the area. They went above and beyond with their customer service and were professional from the moment I called to get a quote. I will definitely be calling back if I need to move again in the future and would highly suggest them to anyone looking for a company you can trust to move your home. read more

Platinum Movers - Moving my apartment today - Movers Near Me - Santa Barbara, California

I used Platinum Movers to move 4 hours away. They came and packed everything, then the next day loaded the truck, drove, and unloaded everything. My mom used a different moving company and moved to the same house as us, so we had a very clear comparison between moving companies. Platinum Movers charged us a little less than they quoted us, whereas my mom's company charged her way, way more than she was quoted. Our stuff was packed so carefully. Every single thing was wrapped in paper (literally my 5 year old's seashell was wrapped) and meticulously labeled. For example, a box would be labeled living room: children's books: -Harry Potter -Dr. Seuss -Captain Underpants. It made everything so easy to find! (Vs my mom's boxes just being labeled "kitchen" or "living room"). Our stuff was unloaded way faster and the movers were way nicer than my mom's guys. We did have some miscommunication, so I recommend being very specific when booking about when everything is happening. Also Platinum Movers showed up late for both packing and loading the truck. Ultimately these things didn't matter nearly as much to me as the low cost and quality of work done and if I had to do it over again, I would definitely still go with Platinum. read more

I live in L.A. and needed a company to move my mom from Santa Barbara to Carpinteria. I left a message and Robert called me back within 30 minutes. After speaking on the phone and getting a quote I decided to with Platinum Movers. We had to change the move date out by two weeks and Robert was very accommodating. On the day of the move Eric and Angel showed up, they were both professional & very nice to my whole family, truly a pleasure to have them both. They covered her couches, mattresses and large mirrors. Everything stayed clean and nothing was broken, which made her extremely happy. However, if I was going to change anything I would have had Robert come out to her residence and see what needed to be moved, covered etc. I gave him a good idea of what needed to be moved over the phone, (except a few things I did not realize like 7 plants and we were closer to 35 -40 boxes when I had originally said 25-30), so I figured it would cost a little more. My original estimate was approximately $500-$600, the day of the move the final price was $1105. The hourly rate and fuel charges Robert quoted originally were exactly the same on moving day. The calculation that was off were the "hours" it would take to move her items, causing the original quote to almost double. Again I would recommend Platinum Movers, we were very happy overall, I would just get a more detailed quote. read more

Top tier professionalism right from the get go! Rob and his guys are amazing. I reached out to Rob with a big job that needed to get done with very little notice, and Rob was able to work with me and make it happen with absolutely zero hassle. Prompt communication and scheduling of the job left me feeling taken care of, with frequent calls to make sure everything was handled to satisfy what my family needed. Now for the Job itself: you can tell these guys care. EVERYTHING was dealt with meticulously, exercising top level service where it matters. Rob takes care of the job and as his customer, I can say it would be very hard to match the service I received. I have already recommended him and his crew to several friends of mine. Thanks again Rob, I appreciate every bit of what you are about and represent with Platinum movers. read more

I called Robbie at Platinum Movers about a week before I had to be out of my last apt. He very quickly gave me their pricing, answered my questions, and when I confirmed that I wanted to use their services, he sent me an estimate/invoice. I found a small mistake (my mistake, not theirs) on the invoice and Robbie sent me an updated/corrected invoice within 2 minutes. The day of the move, they showed up ready to WORK. They were careful with my items and SO FAST. They were amazing. I HIGHLY recommend Platinum Movers. 10/10 Would use again!!! read more

Robert and his team were amazing. We had a last minute move we needed to schedule and the guys he sent were god sends. They got our 650sqft apartment all squared away in the PODS in about 3 hours and the entire time we just laughed and had a great time. I wish Robert and his team were located in Maine because we would have easily hired them to unpack us here. read more

Can't say enough about Robert and his team. This is the 2nd time we're worked with them. First was to move an upright piano and we were stunned with how careful and precise they were. 2 years later we called them back to move a baby grand, and it turned into a full-truck move, picking up at 2 locations, and including a heirloom bedroom set. Really efficient, beyond careful, and didn't leave until everything was exactly where we wanted it. Plus, it was an emotional move, and the entire team was so considerate. You're in good hands, really. read more

I never use moving companies, but man, after this experience I feel like I've been doing this wrong my whole life. Rob was not only knowledgeable but Immediately responsive and diligent. I was booked right away and the movers showed up on time ready to go. Angel and Sabastian were not only kind and respectful guys but hard working, no cutting corners they took the time to get everything right. Even taking the time to take apart and reassemble furniture to fit through the doors. Carrying items upstairs with the upmost care. Not a single wall ding or scratch, I can't claim the same on any of my self moves. If you're ever considering hiring a moving company, THIS IS THE ONE! Hardworking, honest, diligent, efficient work, beyond what I ever expected by leaps and bounds. THANK YOU! read more

I used platinum movers a month ago to move from SB to Camarillo. Robert and his workers were very professional. I was a little worried about the 1star review about the broken TV but they didnt leave a single scratch to my furnitures. They are quick and know what they're doing. Im glad I gave this company a try. I will definetly call them again when I have to move again read more

Platinum Movers - Not a single scratch or damage. They even wrapped all my bookcases. Placed the bed in the bedroom where I wanted. Best movers in town! - Movers Near Me - Santa Barbara, California

Two moves with Platinum, each arranged by Rob...both drivers were excellent: Eric and Angel...the crews were very hard working and very careful with precious furniture...thank you to Omar, Jose and Sebastian...one move was local SB and the other was Sausalito to SB...glad its over read more

I used platinum movers today to help move my father's furniture into the 3rd floor of a retirement center. They arrived early (big bonus), were really friendly, did a great job packing the furniture with blankets and shrink wrap, and unloaded it quickly once we got there. I found them on Yelp and wanted to pass on the good experience. read more

Fast, fair and friendly: Platinum helped my mother move items from storage bins into her home - in an hour. I couldn't believe how fast Robert and his partner worked, and how carefully. Their price was very fair for the time it took them and they were super responsive and concerned as they did the work. We had never work with them before but I can definitely recommend them now. read more

Had a fantastic experience with this company moving from Santa Barbara to San Diego. Omar and Jose did a wonderful job with all of our furniture and boxes! They worked around our annoying building elevators with no complaints, were super helpful and pleasant the whole day, and couldn't have been more professional. In addition, this company offered the best price by far in comparison to other companies in the area. Definitely check them out! read more

Don't even consider anyone else for your move!! I requested a few quotes before our move (5) and it came down to Mammoth and Platinum. Mammoth couldn't give us a definitive time and didn't have the best phone etiquette, so we booked with Platinum. Robert responded to my quote within 10 minutes of my submission. He was also very flexible, as our landlords had switched our move-in time, less than 24 hours prior to our scheduled moving time with Platinum. As promised, the crew showed up on time (actually earlier; if you're not early, you're late)! Robert, Vinny, and Nick didn't waste any time getting our things packed away safely, delivered, and situated in our new home. They were efficient, which is a huge concern of mine when paying for any time sensitive service. The team was professional and most importantly, nothing was damaged. Very happy we chose to go with Platinum movers and we will be using them again when we move (which hopefully won't be for a while)! read more

Platinum Movers is, and will always be, our go to for any of our difficult moving needs. Robert, the owner, is very prompt and charismatic and was a huge help in our move from Santa Barbara to Orange County. They got to work early in the morning and in just a few short hours had everything unloaded and set up in the new house exactly where we wanted it. Quickest I've ever seen 2 guys get that much stuff done! I highly recommend Platinum Movers to any and all of my friends and family looking for quick and reliable moving services. Thanks again Robert, and good luck in the octagon! read more
