They were fast, efficient, and very affordable. They got everything into a 16 foot truck and delivered it on time. Plus, they contacted me to let me know how things were going and when they would arrive. read more

Great Experience working with Rusty and his crew. I highly recommend this group. They are professional, personable and consientious workers. I plan to hire them again soon for my 2nd step of my move. read more

Rusty and his team were amazing. We were moving out of a three bedroom 2400 square-foot home, and he got everything in two 16 foot PODS. We were amazed how they packed it and could get everything in. I would highly recommend them as movers or packers for a POD. They are very quick and efficient and we're able to load our pods in 3 hours each. read more

Pyramid Movers - Movers Near Me - Martinez, California

Initially, we had a great experience working with Pyramid movers. They were responsive and professional. They asked for photos of the house, which we provided, and I also sent an inventory list I had uploaded to Unpakt.com for extra clarity. We were quoted $4320 total to pack and move our 3 bedroom house 29 miles, which felt reasonable. We were moving on short notice and were unsure how much we'd be able to pack ourselves, but they were flexible with our plans which was great. We ended up packing our garage and most of the bedroom, which is around 25% of our stuff. Things felt rushed on both days, like they were too small a crew for this job. We didn't think much of it. We were charged $3640 + left $600 in tips, so $4240 total. Unfortunately the crew was not able to fit everything. We had to pack, load and unload 2 more car loads ourselves in the following days. The crew was polite but didn't wear any shoe covers, which brought a lot of dirt into both houses that we had to clean up afterward. This was disappointing but not a big deal. Things really turned south when we started unpacking. We noticed our furniture was also very dirty. Cream colored sofa pieces were almost entirely unwrapped, seemingly left and even dragged across dirt in the truck or outside, we aren't sure. The packing was very inconsistent. Some items were packed with obvious care, and many were packed with what seemed like no consideration. We found multiple pieces of damaged furniture, loose knives, unwrapped glass, leaking cleaning liquids. Things like webcam lenses, our label maker, light bulbs and chef's knives were packed with no wrapping. Soap leaked onto an unsealed solid wood desktop, and one of the crew told us 'its just extra clean now'. We still haven't found the source of the leak. There was even a full sized wardrobe box packed to the brim with the contents of two of our utility closets. The box was so heavy we couldn't move it ourselves, and had to unpack it by cutting it open on the side. We did this urgently once we realized that liquids like hydrogen peroxide and isopropyl alcohol were packed sideways on top of a pile of paper items, electronics, and unwrapped glass jars. Our trash can was full of kitchen items, speakers were packed loosely into pieces of our couch. 2 broken lampshades, suits removed from hangers and squished into boxes. Many of our electronics were packed carelessly - cables cranked to the side, tons of stuff still plugged in and pressing against ports in boxes, even a PC with a glass side panel packed in to a box so small that the box flaps were folded over the top to close it. We also found that a non trivial number of boxes were in the wrong rooms, that many of the boxes packed by the crew were missing labels and in many cases did not cross out our old labels (reused boxes) so things were put in the wrong rooms based on the old labels. Most dissapointingly, we were never told about any of the furniture dirt or damage and some of it was impossible to have not noticed. After telling the team about issues we were seeing, they were very responsive and asked us for all the photos we could send them, and wanted to make things right. We initially asked for a 25% refund, after considering the days we spent cleaning, making trips back to our old house, moving boxes into the right rooms, and the cost of our damaged items. As we continued unpacking and finding more damage, we asked for 30% instead, which would be $1270. Unfortunately the owner wanted to apply this 30% to only the time the crew spent packing, which was $360. We were told they could do $400. This offer was insulting. The cost of our damaged items alone surpassed $400, and the packing was not the only problem. Our furniture and other belongings were damaged, dirtied and misplaced during this move. 8 days after we moved, behind and under 2 layers of boxes, we found a large cooler full of rotting food that we explicitly told the crew had food from our freezer in it. The owner bumped our reimbursement to $550. I have hired movers 5 other times in my life and never had such an awful experience. Seeing all these good reviews I do not know what happened. Do not recommend. Gave 2 stars instead of 1 because the crew were nice, and Tyler in the office was very nice and did his best to help us out. read more

Rusty and his team did a fantastic job helping us with a complex move involving multiple trucks over different days. we had more than a few unplanned challenges and they were super flexible and handled everything with great communication and a positive "we'll get it done" approach. highly recommend! read more

Javier and Edwin showed up on time. they were careful, very efficient and got all my household into the Pod in three hours. I have not moved in twenty eight years so I didn't know what to expect. I was really pleased how smoothly the process went. I definitely recommend these guys as they were polite and competent and relieved my stress. read more

As a home owner, I have moved my 4 bedroom house at least 5 times in the last 10 years. This last move was 2 26' trucks moving from LA to Bay Area. I honestly have never had a better moving experience. Rusty came down personally to oversee move and he was efficient, organized, extremely careful, and a really nice guy. He is a great communicator and his crew was great. Nothing was missing or damaged! Highly recommend! :-) read more

I've used Pyramid Movers on three different occasions, including during the pandemic. PODS Moving & Storage had recommended Pyramid because the movers were PODS approved - knowing how to pack and unpack a POD. Myself and my family were not as prepared as we had hoped, and the Pyramid movers were very forgiving and helpful. They promptly arrived at our home and worked tirelessly all day, which we appreciated. They did an excellent job at packing and storing the POD. We used them again when we arrived at our new residence to unpack the POD and load everything in the house. The third time we used them was to move a collection of arcade size pinball machines from 400 miles away. They were well prepared for this type of sensitive move. Nothing was daunting to the Pyramid movers. Their prices are competitive, they are experienced, responsive, communicative, and professional. read more

We have used Pyramid once again, this time for a family member. We have referred Pyramid to friends also in the past. Without exception, they have ALWAYS exceeded our expectations The quality and care of their work, timeliness on the job, and fairness regarding their pricing continues to make them our absolute "go-to" for all our moving needs. Once again, thanks so much for another wonderful job‼ Pat Tunney read more

PYRAMID is AMAZING!! A friend hired them for a small in-town job then late for a long-distance move from Bay Area California to Washington State. HUGE THANKS to owner Rosty, team leaders Javier and Tyler, and crew members Carl, Eli, Jobar, Tim, Dom, and Alex. Sorry if I missed anyone or misspelled any names. Seriously, everyone was STELLAR! Highly recommend. read more

This is a disclaimer to those considering this business. Look elsewhere. These guys were a no show on our move date even after I confirmed the date, time, and arrival time to start the move (see photo). Even after I received confirmation from Rusty, there was no communication or response from them after I tried multiple times to reach him or someone. Wasted an entire day due to unprofessionalism, unreliability, and lack of communication. The following is my response to the owners comment to my review. Rusty, ...taking a deep breath. Let me address and correct your comments calmly. 1. Due to unforeseen circumstances, your movers NEVER showed up. I know because I was there the whole time moving out. 2. Yes, emergencies happen, I get it. No phone call could have been made to communicate that you weren't able to make it? 3. Your manager misplaced my job? That's not my problem. That's your manager's fault and it's just plain unprofessional. How many other jobs have you guys misplaced? 4. Your business line was out of service? You, your manager or your movers don't have cell phones to contact customers due an unforeseen circumstances or emergencies happening? You didn't seem to have trouble calling +15 times after my review was posted. Hmmmm... 5. Replacement crew showed up? No, they didn't. Again, I was there the whole time. 6. You never tried to call me during the time you were scheduled. You called me after my review was posted. I would have respected the fact if you came out right and admitted that you did not deliver that day and made the wrong decisions instead of drumming up excuses and lies as well as putting the blame back on me. read more

Fitting broke under sink n flooded 700-750 sq ft of 2+ inch oak flooring... NEEDED to move ( NOW ) 4of7 rooms. Next day at noon they arrived n moved us across town. Not only were them fast BUT the price was excellent.. QUICK N QUITE. No marks vaulables all there. Thanks!!! read more

Very responsive when I asked for a quote and great all the way around. Confirmed the day before, called on their way, and then made everything so easy. read more

Worst movers ever. During the height of Covid we asked the guys to wear a mask while they were packing our house. Right away they started giving us attitude. They had trouble getting a piece of furniture through the doorway and one of them said "dude I don't give a F$&@ just shove it through I don't care anymore", then he put a hole in our wall. If that wasn't bad enough you threaten to kick my husband's ass. My husband is a 6 foot tall black belt. Well I would've liked to seen that it isn't worth it find someone else ANYONE would be better than these guys. read more

I met Rusty from a recommendation by a friend who had used Pyramid. I sold my house in Martinez and was moving to Genoa, NV. I can only say that it was a fabulous experience and his team of Luis, Carlos, Will & Eli did an amazing job... so professional, caring, courteous and eager to do an expedient job! They met us in Genoa and worked tirelessly to unload our furnishings and belongings (2 - 28ft trucks). They were meticulous in the way they handled our stuff and always eager to put things in just the right place. At the end of the day, they still had to drive back to the Bay Area and it was already after 4PM. You would have thought they'd be in a hurry to get going, but no, Luis walked EVERY room in the house and asked my wife "is everything where you want it? Would you like us to move anything around? Is there anything we can do for you?" Absolutely fabulous customer service and at a very affordable price! I HIGHLY recommend Pyramid Movers! You won't be disappointed! read more

Pyramid Movers - One of two trucks they used to move us from Martinez, CA to Genoa, NV - Movers Near Me - Martinez, California

Recently did a move from CA to WA and we're so grateful for Pyramid Movers' excellent service!!! Could not have done it without them and if we could give it 10 stars we would! It was the first time we hired a moving company to do a long distance move so we were pretty nervous going into it; we asked for a quote from multiple companies and Pyramid's quote was the most straightforward and reasonable. From the initial call with the owner Rusty to the actual move, everything went super smooth. Could not have asked for a better experience! Our movers Aaron and Cal were simply AMAZING. They came to our apt on Sunday morning and finished loading everything (incl. wrapping up some loose ends for us) within 2 hours!!! (Mind you that we did a local move a year ago with Two Men and a Truck and they had 3 people but still took ~6 hours...) They then met us at our new apt in about 48 hours later and unloaded everything within 3 hours (it took longer cuz our new place required a bit more of a walk for them to go in and we also had some stairs inside). Everything was intact and in its original condition. We'll be lucky if we could find the next moving company half as good as Pyramid. You guys rock! read more

I just had the most AWESOME moving crew come over and help with everything for my move. José and his crew were definitely the most hard working, organized, Tetris masters I have had to date with movers. They were able to pack my things quickly and efficiently. Also, very polite when I changed my mind in packing certain things. Wish I could bring them with me so I know my stuff will be unpacked just as well on the east coast. If it was possible I'd give them a gazillion stars for their service. Looking for a moving specialist? Use Pyramid! Want an awesome crew that listens, is courteous, and flexible with your needs? Get José and his crew. You won't be disappointed. They get it done. Thanks José and guys for all the help! read more

This amazing crew helped us with our move in Napa. They were friendly, helpful, careful and efficient as well as being affordable. They safely relocated all of our items from a second-floor apartment into a two-story townhouse while also being cautious of walls, door frames and banisters. They made sure everything was carefully wrapped, protected and strapped down and nothing was damaged during the move. They called to confirm 24 hours prior to the move and let us know they were on their way and even gave us a discount for paying in cash. read more

I thank you Tyler and Javier, Sjvarr, and Carl. What a great crew so fast so efficient and so caring. Thank you for going above and beyond your orders in the 100 degree weather. Wow so impressive. What really touched me heart was that all of my garage items they arranged so neatly in my Shed area. I was not expecting that again thank you for completing my move with no stress. Great company read more

Overall an amazing experience! Moving is always stressful. Rusty and his crew met all my deadlines on time and made moving a breeze. I will definitely be hiring these guys again when the time comes. read more

Highly recommend pyramid movers to anyone looking for great, timely service in the Bay Area. They helped me move to Portland, Oregon, loaded up and protected everything expertly, and nothing was broken in the process. They were fast, affordable, and right on time, and will work with you to meet your exact needs. Jimmy helped on one end, and even his wife Tanya was a pleasure to have along, and helped out a bit. read more

Doing an out of state move is always hard, moving in the middle of a pandemic where both pickup and drop-off locations are under strict shelter in place ordinances, takes it to a new level! Despite all the additional hurdles, working with Pyramid movers was a great experience. They were quick to answer my emailed questions and Jimmy and his crew were fantastic! They emptied our large 1 bedroom in under 2 hours despite the three floors of stairs. Then, they surprised me by saying they could deliver to our new place in Portland the next day! Unloading went even more smoothly. Highly recommended - Thanks Jimmy & co! read more

We hired Pyramid Movers through Unpakt and we had a wonderful experience. Jose, Jaime and Carlos showed up at around 2 pm and, after inspecting everything that had to be moved, proceeded to bring everything that was necessary to wrap the furniture that we wanted to move. While Jaime was packing the stuff (he was super careful with everything and double checked that we were ok with the way he wrapped everything), Carlos and Jose were loading boxes in the truck. They were extremely nice through the whole move, and were really careful with all our stuff. Once we got to the new apartment, they unloaded everything quickly and helped us put everything in its corresponding room. As mentioned before, it was a wonderful experience. I would totally recommend these guys to anyone looking for movers! read more

Great moving company with great service. I use those guys several times and in all times they were prompt and very professional Highly recommend read more

We moved from Pleasant Hill to San Diego. Rusty was great to work with, all his workers were excellent, they were on time as promised at both locations, got it done as promised. Also the price was very fair priced. I recommend Pyramid Movers, great company with good people. Manny read more

I connected with Pyramid Movers through moving.com. I'm still a little confused how the final charge will compare with the estimate, so hopefully there will be no big surprises! However- regarding Pyramid, I would definitely hire them again. They were very on time, worked extremely efficiently and courteously. Jimmy and Carlos were so understudying of how stressful moving is. I think these two moving men had the best, most pleasant attitude of any movers I have ever hired. Again, I would call Pyramid again if I needed to hire movers, and would specifically request Jimmy and Carlos. Thank you, guys!! read more

This will be my 2nd time to have my furniture moved. Their service is always professional, hard working crew, accommodating, and friendly! Never a doubt that there would be an issue with the move. These movers are awesome! They have moving materials such as blankets, plastic wraps to cover and to protect from being damaged. Pricing is very reasonable with labor by the hour and their cost of moving materials to protect your furniture. They truly deserve a huge tip for their excellent customer service! Rusty was my contact person who had helped me with my move. You provide him your contact info and location of where to move from and to. He will then generate an estimated cost for you to review. I'm very satisfied with the outcome of my move. They are quick and handle your items with care! In addition, they even accommodated us with getting our wide cabinet placed inside our bedroom storage area which was not an easy task to do. I've checked pricing of other moves, but what stands out from the rest is the quality and care they put in from their service! read more

On, May 14, 2022, arrangements were made through pack & load to have movers come & pack an 8 foot POD. I met Rusty & Alex, who were going to load everything that did not make it into the 16 foot POD. I had a 16ft POD, but the 2 young guys who came to load the POD, were unable to pack the POD adequately. Watching them work, it was evident they were not as skilled as they said. I was told, "The 16 foot POD should use 6 ratchet straps, in the shape of an X to hold everything in place." The youngsters only used two. It's funny that young people think they know everything and will not listen to information from a senior Citizen. Everything that was told to me, I explained several times to them. They did not use the information, to their benefit. I've been worried about my belongings, since it left the property. I won't know the condition til everything is moved into a new house, which I haven't found. That's the reason for the 2nd POD, more money being spent unnecessarily. When the 8ft POD was delivered (on Friday the 13th, you almost feel evil lurking) it looked impossible to load all of my left over belongs in that tiny POD. Also, no one came to load the POD on Friday, as the youngsters had promised. They lied, about scheduling an appointment. I had ask several times, about the appointment. Well, you have not met, Rusty & Alex. They promised to do their best to get everything in the POD. They worked hard & consistent to pack, wrap & move everything. Things were placed where they would fit & every bit of open space, was used. This was all done from 830-1056am, less than three hours. The Lord was on our side, because everything fit. I now have to pay for 2 PODs, which will cost close to $500.00, a month. Many people say, "You get what you pay for. Well, it cost $539.00, for three hours, for the young movers. That's like saying, "Throwing good money after bad workers! Thank You again, Rusty & Alex for a job well done. I was well informed & everything was explained from the beginning to the end. If you are planning a move and need movers, you should call Pyramid Movers for Rusty & Alex, they were great! read more

Jose and Marcelo were great! They were expected to arrive between 8-10, but were a little late (10:30). However, they were super quick and wrapped, disassembled and loaded my cube in about an hour and a half. They were also very nice and worked hard. read more

Rusty and his crew made our family move a smooth and stress-less endeavor. Rusty's customer service is on point and was always there to ensure things were on track. I hope to not move again for a long while but if I did I wouldn't hesitate calling up Rusty again. Highly recommended. read more

Its been 22 yrs since our last move and finding a moving company seemed so overwhelming. I could not have made a better choice by choosing Pyramid Movers. During the initial consultation I requested some very special, delicate and large items to be moved. Rusty said it could be done. Fast forward to moving day the guys got straight to work loading my 3 bedroom house into 2 trucks. They carefully wrapped my sofa, glass tabletops and delicate/breakable items. (Even the neighbors were amazed at how well things were wrapped). Upon arriving at the new location they unloaded the truck and placed my marked boxes in their appropriate rooms. I was certainly most appreciative of this extra step. As agreed upon for the next day, Rusty and his crew came back with a larger truck to move a few remaining items as well as my very large pieces. Rusty knows what he is doing because they were put on the truck and then placed at the new location carefully with absolutely no damage. Choosing Rusty and his outstanding crew at Pyramid Movers was such an excellent choice. These guys are top notch professionals and will do the job right. They will be my first call on my next move. Pyramid Movers, give them a call! read more

Alex and his crew did an amazing job in loading up our Upack. Alex was great at giving me an eta for day of arrival. Once the crew arrived we walked the entire house and Alex explained what they would be doing and got to work right away. The crew was diligent in wrapping/covering all the furniture to protect it. The trailer was loaded all the way to the top, they utilized every inch of the trailer and made sure to strap everything down as they filled it. Even with all the odd shaped items they managed to pack it in good. I highly recommend Pyramid Movers, especially Alex and his crew. read more

It s hard to find good movers. Pyramid movers were AWESOME!!!!! They were super fast and efficient. All our stuff were well taken care of. Very reasonable rates. Excellent movers and very professional. I would definitely recommend! Thank you guys! read more

I used Pyramid to help load a POD at the house I moved out of and unload the same POD a few days later at the house I moved to. They were a recommended vendor on POD's website and didn't let me down. The reservation went smoothly, I got a call prior to the move dates to confirm everything, and the two guys who showed up to do the move were great. Special call out to Jimmy and Fil -- you guys were awesome. Showed up on time. Great attitude. Took good care of our stuff while moving it. Fast work. Recommended some special packing where needed, and got down to it. No complaints. read more

We used them to load our POD and they did an amazing job. Very professional, and cleaned up everything. They wrapped all our furniture and they loaded the pod with more boxes and furniture than we thought possible! Luiz, Will and Jimmy were the best. In fact, we have hired them again to load our next POD/. read more

Rusty and Jose arrived early and packed super fast!!! They were so efficient and climbed up ALL of our belongings up 2 stories. They fit things i never knew would fit thro those doors. Very professional and nice. They made sure to ask us all the correct questions for moving in. I would recommend them to ANYONE who wants a cheaper quote for quality job. Rusty accommodate me last minute to arrive later than our scheduled time and was very nice about it. Would have them move us again!! read more

Pyramid was great. I'd use them again in a heartbeat. Rusty responded in 5 minutes to my sending an inquiry on a Monday about needing movers in 2 days. My son and his girlfriend were moving into an apartment so we had 2 pick up locations and one destination. They were done in 3.5 hours start to finish - 2 guys, one truck. Rusty either picked up or returned every phone call within 5 minutes. This move could not have been easier thanks to Pyramid. The customer service was outstanding. Highly recommend Pyramid. read more

Best movers ever! Rusty and his crew have now moved me four times -- on the West Coast end of a NYC to SF move, Berkley to Santa Barbara, Santa Barbara to Sausalito, and then Sausalito back to Santa Barbara. Most of these were nerve-wracking long-distance moves, but these guys made it way less stressful. They are super organized and responsible (they wrap everything so carefully), friendly and a pleasure to work with. On all of these moves not one item has ever even gotten dinged! I have some expensive furniture and fragile artwork and electronics and I'm really pretty high maintenance, so I feel very lucky to have such awesome movers. I should add that on top of all that, their pricing is incredibly reasonable -- please tip them well, they deserve it! read more

These folks are pros! Arrived on time, packed everything properly and took our stuff to a storage facility. Weeks later, reloaded the truck and unpacked everything into the proper rooms and reassembled what was needed. Again, on time and professional! I don't want to move again, but if I did I would use them again. Thanks read more

The owner and movers were friendly and polite and the owner personally made an extra trip to my old place and brought an overlooked item to my new place at no extra charge. Given the special situation surrounding this move this was the only mover out of more than 40 willing to do the job and take pictures throughout the move to show me whether my possessions and the previous place was in the same condition I left it. The reason I'm giving 3 instead of 5 stars though is because I was quoted around $580 and was charged over $1,300 at the end of the job! As expected, all the movers I got estimates from said final costs can't be determined until movers are on site and see what they're dealing with. I provided an exhaustive list of all my items and other details so they could get a fair idea though, so I was shocked when I got the final bill. When all my things arrived, I saw where they gouged me was on excessive wrapping and packing. I appreciate the care they took to protect my things, but moving companies carry insurance for the possibility of damaging items. I appreciate a company's interest in not increasing their insurance rate due to claims being made over accidental damage, but I would've preferred they were just careful and dispense with the additional wrapping and packing to spare me from paying nearly 2.5 times their estimate. As I'm sure they adopted a policy of taking this extra care to avoid the hassle of accidental damage and claims, I think it reasonable to believe they could've provided a more accurate estimate from the list and details I provided them so I could make a more informed choice on which company to hire, or at least take the necessary time to save up for the move. There was very minor damage to one piece of furniture I actually saw happen when they were moving it up stairs. Nothing conspicuous or affecting its function. Fortunately it's only an old, cheap dresser I could easily replace by similar furniture for free, but still worth noting for those with expensive or irreplaceable items. read more
