Second time using Riptide and second time they killed it. Great crew, great communication with Rick and the guys. Moving is always stressful but Riptide delivered above and beyond again. Everything packed well including TV, surfboards, and more. A friend used another mover recently - ignoring my rec for Riptide- and heard crazy stories. Great pricing, it was worthwhile to wait a few days for their availability to work with them again. Hopefully won't move in next 3-5 years (used them 3 years ago the first time) but if so I'll def give Rick a call. And let me know how the triathlon goes! Cheers and read more

I needed an affordable, quick move for a few items. I've used several movers before, but Riptide definitely takes the additional steps to plan for unpredictable events like bringing a bigger truck or renting another truck if another move is running late. They arrived at our scheduled time, and even texted me an update on their ETA. They are friendly and personable, but more than anything, they care about the homes they are moving out of and into, as well as the furniture they move. They took the additional time to take apart my couch and put it back together to prevent damaging our home (not all movers consider this)-- they were ready with tools and took it apart and put it back together quickly. They also brought plastic wrap to ensure the couch wasn't damaged in the process. I really appreciate the affordability, friendly service and additional care they put into their work. I would definitely use them again! read more

Everything was great from beginning to end! The men sent were kind and did such a thorough and quick job. The unload was also quick and detailed. Thank you again! read more

These guys are by far the best hard working movers that love their work. There prices are fair and I would you them the mext move.

Very quick and respectful of my property. Price was the best quote I received. I couldn't find another company with 2 hour instead of 2 hour minimum. Definitely recommend. read more

I've used this company for my last 4 or more moves, and my mother has used them as well. Every single time, they've been friendly, prompt, and professional. They move quickly but also handle everything with care, which I really appreciate. Consistently excellent service--we won't use anyone else! read more

Rick's company came highly recommended to us and now I know why! He graciously helped us out with a last minute move, not only was communication easy, he was super nice and answered all of our questions. Paul and Colton came to help us a pack a pod and we could not have been happier. They were kind, fast, careful with our items and great at making everything fit! Which was no small task. We definitely could not have done it without them. Very thankful we found Rick, Paul and Colton. Would absolutely recommend them for your next move. read more

Riptide Moving was a wonderful experience! This morning they met me at 10am. Had everything loaded out of my storage by 10:45 and unloaded at my new home by 12:50. While my location was a little bit out of their range, they were willing to help me and at a decent rate. The owner, Richard, was very friendly and warm. I enjoyed meeting him and his helper... Whose name escapes me! But he was wonderful too! I plan to move again in a few months when I go off to college... So I'll be using him and his company again! read more

We have used Riptide for more rhan one move. Things were complicated, with items needing to go to different locations. They ran the whole move so smoothly, even taking apart bunk beds to get them through doors, and putting them back together in our new place. And they work so quickly! Worth every penny, and we highly recommend them! read more

Richard and his team were so impressive with their hard work ethic and positive attitudes while they moved us on a hot summer day. They arrived on time and stayed until the work was expertly done. This company will be recommended to my family and friends and so thankful we found them. Thank you, Richard, and team! read more

Ric and his crew are awesome. They are all respectful, honest and hardworking. We used his company for a move out while our home was under construction and we used them again 10 months later to move us back in. Fantastic company to work with and Ric is an overall awesome human being. He's honest and treated my things like they were his own. His work ethic and how he trains and treats his crew were admirable. His entire crew worked hard and were very professional, they worked in unison and never complained (and they worked very long hours for us). I will only use this company and only recommend him to others for their moving needs. You will not be disappointed if you hire this team! read more

Although I didn't select my movers, so I was so apprehensive as how this day was going to go. They had to move our 1500 sq ft condo into 2 storage rooms. They got every piece to fit. It was incredible. They were on time, professional friendly and fast. I am getting ready to use them again, this time me selecting them. They will be moving only some of the items over to a small one bedroom. Shout out to Patrick! The owner was also there to help. Couldn't have gone smoother!!!! read more

Their team was super professional and very flexible throughout the entire process. From the initial walkthrough and scheduling to the pack-out and offload, we couldn't have asked for better service. They communicated every step of the way and handled our belongings like it was their own. Thanks to Rick, Paul, Leo and Joe for the great support (at an even better value... 10% off for military too)!! read more

I would give this company more than 5 stars I I could! I called the owner, Rick, this morning with a last minute request. All I needed was for someone to load my portable storage. He came thru. But more importantly, great customer service on the phone. Lyle and Shawn worked hard, carefully, and quickly to get everything inside. They were both thorough and courteous. I am going to request them when I have to empty the container! Call Rick, Lyle, and Shawn for your moving needs!!! read more

The best movers we've ever used! They're on time, load and unload quickly, and very affordable. Highly recommend!

They were quick, efficient, and took care in moving all my items in under the estimated time. They also helped pick up a couch that happened to be at the same storage unit and service was cheaper than most other quotes. Highly recommend! read more

These guys are amazing !!!! I have a broken leg and my 80 year old mother was trying to move me out. These guys came in and took over did things quickly efficiently and were very kind and knowledgeable! Highly recommended!!!! read more

A few weeks ago I had to remove personal property from a house in Coronado on short notice. Being in Kansas at the time, I was feeling uneasy about the process of moving the furniture and things and making arrangements quickly, until I spoke to Rick Mullins on the phone. He immediately put me at ease with his explanation of Riptide's services, rates and availability. We scheduled the move and a week later he and Leo (the Lion) got it done. Rick and Leo handled my property like it was their own, and nothing was damaged in any way. They worked quickly, efficiently, smartly, and creatively. I could not be more pleased with their help. They brought all the equipment, tools, and materials needed. Valuewise, Riptide's rates are as low as you'll find in San Diego and their services were the best. I intend to use Rick and his crew in the future and recommend them unconditionally. Thank you, Rick! Thank you, Leo! I'm looking forward to seeing you again soon! read more

Best moving company I've used! Paul & Leo were very fast, helpful, caring, you can truly tell they love to help you out with your move! They got right to work and don't take ur time for granted. No confusion with the moving price or try to add on extra fees! They stay true to their quoted price and give u flat rates! I will definitely be using them for all my future moves. Special Thank you to Leo & Paul you guys are the best and of course to riptide moving and delivery for making my move as smooth and efficient as possible! read more

Professional, courteous, accommodating, and fairly priced. I could use many more words to describe the outstanding service provided by this business! Due to my own miscalculation of how much 'stuff' I had, the crew went above and beyond to get it all packed and put into storage by nights end. I have moved around quite a bit and this crew, by far, was the BEST! You won't go wrong going with them! read more

Rick, the owner was extremely responsive every time I called him. From scheduling my move to confirming my move to the guys actually even showing up early the day of my move! The movers were extremely professional, took care of my things like they were theirs, and Trinity with such respect that there's no one else I would use in San Diego to move ever again. I will be using them again in the end of August/early September when I move back to San Diego, they're so good! read more

Contacted several movers and piano movers via Yelp for a quote to move an upright piano from one house to another. Rick was quick to reply and provided a fair price. He was also available the next day, which was the best thing for my schedule! No hidden fees, delivery minimum or weird "truck fee". Easy peasy... They arrived ON TIME! Amazing. Will use again if I need movers. Highly recommend read more

I look forward to moving now because I get to see Richard. Him and his team at Riptide have moved me personally twice, my aunt and my sister and her family. I recommend and tell EVERYONE who is moving ANYWHERE to reach out to Riptide Movers. They take really good care of and protect my furniture, pack the truck like genuses and are FAST! (Mostly because I always help and he wishes he could hire me jk) Richard has become like family. He cares about people, his workers, his clients, his family and his music. We always have a good time, laugh and get the job done. Riptide makes moving less stressful with all the help and giving back Richard and his team does. Thank you so much. I have never felt more safe with my belongings then I do with Richard at Riptide. read more

Wow!! Rick worked magic. After a misunderstanding regarding time and schedule, Rick jumped to action and arrived to my house in 30 min with an assistant. We had two relocubes to load for our cross county move and we had a 3 bedroom 1.5 bathroom house to fit in it. Rick worked magic we can't even believe it. He fit all of our stuff into the relocubes even with leftover space!! He took meticulous care of our things and did everything in record time (under 2 hours). I wish Rick could be my mover for the rest of my life. After 7 cross county moves, I can say, with no hesitation Rick is the best in the business!! Thank you!!!!! read more

We moved into a building with no elevator. Paul, Kyle, and Jeryl were absolutely amazing. They worked so hard, moved all of our heavy furniture up three floors and through a narrow stairway. They were so fast and professional, truly a pleasure to work with. We have used and our family has used Riptide Moving multiple times and we will continue! read more

Could not have asked for a better experience. Paul and Joe were friendly, efficient, and quick. I packed everything up in boxes except for furniture so I can't speak to their packing, but they were immensely helpful with loading everything up. Even my delicate boxes with wine glasses were completely unscathed. They're the only company I found that had a 2 hour minimum as opposed to 3, and had the most competitive hourly price with no surprise fees. I will be recommending them to all of my friends who need to move! read more

I needed help unloading a Uhaul trailer, and Riptide Moving provided me with the most reasonable estimate. Paul and Jorge were my movers - they were so down-to-earth, easy-going, professional, and FAST. I live on the 7th floor, and they were able to move all my boxes, 200+ lb mattress, TV, TV stand, and peloton within two hours! I thought it would take longer because it takes time for the elevator, as many people use it at all hours of the day. But, that didn't hinder them from getting it all done within two hours. Nothing was damaged either, not the floor, not any of the boxes, or the bulky items. Highly recommend Riptide Moving if you're moving around the San Diego area! read more

I recommend Riptide Moving. They moved my two bedroom apt quickly and safely. I had no issues with breakage even though I had many fragile items. They took apart some of my furniture that was too big to get into my new place and put it back together. They went above and beyond in making my move go as smoothly as possible. A+ read more

Used their service twice and both times were excellent. I will definitely be using Riptide for future moves and will recommend to anyone looking for moving services. Thank you guys! read more

Wow what an amazing company! I'm so thankful for them. Kind, professional, courteous....Rick and his crew have amazing business ethics and truly understand the meaning of customer service. I was so nervous about my move. Rick reassured me and calm my nerves even when I was wreck he always maintained his professionalism. His quote was spot on and he kept me within my quotes tome window. All of my furniture and boxes were treated with such care and no casualties lost. Not a single scratch on any of my things. They were on time at my scheduled move time and knocked everything out! Rick takes pride in his family owned business it shows in how he treats his customers. read more

We had the best experience with Riptide Movers! Rick is very responsive and great with communication. I called twice to confirm my move and they had all the information correct on their end. The day of my move, Rick gave me an hour window and the guys were there within the first 10 mins. Danny and Joseph were beyond amazing, they did a great job and were able to make small talk and build rapport with their customers. They also were very respectful with our belongings and did not ding any of our furniture, which is a bonus with movers! My boss referred this company to me and he had also used them the weekend that I moved. I have been referring them out to other people needing movers and now letting you all know to hire them ASAP for your move!! You will not regret it :) - Bri & Ashley read more

Offered excellent price and no hidden fees- small and local family owned business- professional- really can't ask for more than that!

This is a very late review. The team at riptide moving was incredibly fast at responding to my requests and efficient (but careful) while moving boxes/furniture. My father decided last minute that he could use some help moving in to his third floor apartment. Riptide responded to my same day request immediately and had a team out to help move my father in the same afternoon. They were consistent with the price they quoted and by far the best deal we found. They were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout the entire process and we will be using them again in the future. read more

I moved all my furnitures and stuff from my 1200sq ft appartment to a 10*10 storage room. I am very happy with Jorge, Paul and Jamie. They showed up on time with a smile on their face and they were very fast. All 3 worked very hard with the best attitude. They disassembled the furnitures, packed everything in their huge truck and used every inch of the storage room (Paul is the Tetris master with boxes). The rate is straightforward, no hidden fees/gas fees, inflation fee etc.. I will call them in a few months when I'll move in in our new house. Thank you again Riptide! See you in a few months! read more

Paul, Austin and Jamie were a pleasure to work with! They were punctual and professional! Made my move smooth! Will use them again!

Don't be fooled by the lower prices. Could not ask for better service. Excellent communication. Excellent service. Came and packed up my moving Pod all in two hours and took great care with my stuff. Extremely happy with the service. read more

Thank you Richard and crew! You guys worked very hard, and were done a lot quicker than expected! Saved a day and a half, and was very pleased! Brandon and Joseph were hard-working machines, and very professional! Your company, Riptide Moving and Delivery, was very reasonably priced, for how much work was accomplished. As they say, "I got my bang for my buck!" Definitely will refer you to my family and friends! Thank you very much, Jesse and Laurie The Diesel Doctor read more

I set up an appointment a week in advance and they came on time, their prices are reasonable versus the other movers. Also, they were prompt about getting your stuff out/loaded and delivered safely. I would highly recommend there moving services to my friends, colleagues, and family. read more

We just moved with Riptide and had such a great experience my wife is making me post this review. We chose Riptide mostly because of a glowing recommendation from a friend. We didn't really do too much to get ready for the move--not nearly enough. When the Riptide movers came, much of our property was still needing to be packed, with stuff on the shelves and in closets and cupboards still. Ben and Danny were the movers who came. They had a great attitude, repeatedly saying something like, "We're here to make you happy." They backed that up by cheerfully complying with all our nit-picky and perhaps unreasonable requests and concerns. A couple of times they mentioned that something we were asking would take more time (disassembling/reassembling furniture, for example, or moving it around when we couldn't make up our mind where to put it); they wanted to make sure we didn't end up paying for more of their time than we really wanted. Once it was clear we would pay for the extra time, they cheerfully carried on. The movers were ready for anything, with plenty of dollies and blankets and ways to pack large framed art and shrink-wrap (no extra charge) for mattresses and straps. They even helped load stuff in our pickup for the recycling center and thrift store. They came equipped with plenty of cool fluids to keep themselves hydrated, which we learned after offering them something to drink. They brought up several giant boxes for us to fill with bags of loose items from the backs of closets or under beds; apparently that is a "thing." When all was said and done, thanks to Riptide our move went as smoothly and stress-free as possible. We feared we might be being unreasonable in some or our requests or asking too much, but in word and deed Danny and Ben's response was "We're professionals. We do this every day." We would 100% use Riptide for our next move! read more

Brandon, Danny, and Joseph were AMAZING! They showed up right on time and went straight to work. They work fast, but carefully, so as not to harm any belongings. They had us cracking up all day, which made the stressful move more enjoyable. Even booking Riptide through Rick was a breeze and their rates are hard to pass up. We recommend using Riptide and hope to use them again in the future! read more
