The move per se was ok. The crew called 30 mins before arrival, the packing was smooth, and the drop off was quick. I would have given five stars but I am giving three because I found it pretty impossible to get in touch with them after the initial call where they gave me the quote. In fact, if you try and call their number, you'll be routed to a voicemail where you are asked to leave a message. I never received a call back. I wanted to reschedule my move and I managed to get in touch with them by starting a new request for quote on Yelp via chat. Someone from the Seize the Day team responded and I was able to reschedule the move. My advice to Seize the Day is to build a website where customers can manage their move (schedule, reschedule, add notes, purchase additional services, etc.). The service they provide is great, so why not making it more convenient for the customer? read more

These guys are GREAT! Hired them randomly through Movers.com and I am sure glad I did. They emailed me right away and verified all pertinent info. They showed up when they were supposed to and were friendly and caring. We have antique furniture that I always worry about but these guys took my worries away! They cared so much about our furniture and moved it with grace and care. They are fast and made sure everything was exactly where I wanted it! We are so grateful we found them. Josh & "D" were awesome. I would recommend this company to anyone and will! Thanks Guys! read more

They were really good with communicating and arriving on time. I hired 2 guys for labor for $210 with a 3 hour minimum. From the reviews, I expected them to be careful with our stuff and somewhat unload them and put them where my parents directed. The only thing the moved in was the fridge. They just packed everything else in the garage and carelessly shoved boxes out of the way with their feet despite my mom asking them not to because some things were fragile. Also, hiring movers is supposed to make moving easy, if they completely packed in the garage, how is that helping my parents with the sorting. Some of the boxes are also heavy and they're high up. They brought in the fridge which is nice. Everything was unloaded in a little over an hour. Overall, a disappointment. read more

If you read nothing else of this review, PLEASE READ THIS; Please hire these guys and keep them in business. I need them to be around the next time i need movers because i realize, but don't care, that now my expectations are set "unrealistically" high. okay now settle in... this is a doozie... This review is L-O-N-G overdue, but trust me - it took an even loooooooonger minute to even begin the recovery process from the emotional trauma and scarring of this move, so it is what it is. (having NOTHING to do with these guys mind you - they are the ones who rode in on a white horse and saved the day all the while keeping me sane) Anyway, there is not enough I can say to adequately express to what degree of wonderful Tom and Josh (and their workers) were. Their prices (very affordable) do not at all match their service (5-star). (For real - do yourself a favor and hire them QUICKLY, before they get too busy and begin to figure that s**t out) Hmmm how do i really say this... My husband and I footed the bill to help a troubled family member undertake an intensely depressing and heart-breaking move. I was an emotional mess and suffice to say I sincerely doubt these guys could have even IMAGINED a worse customer than we were :( They not only agreed to help load/unload at both ends of the move, but they also agreed to DRIVE THE ONE WAY RENTAL TRUCK (towing their own car), meet hired but unknown laborers at the other end, and then put the contents in a storage locker which was a LIFE SAVER because the entire move was just a logistical nightmare from A to Z. And they priced it such that we could actually do all this for someone else. We didn't have the kind of money it would have cost from the quotes we got calling big name moving companies. a few highlights: 1) Day of the move - psych...!!! nope, permission to access the apartment REVOKED... moving/driving crew all standing around waiting for permission to be reinstated (some at the unit and some at U-Haul)... to no avail. we finally gave up, rain-check... ****Did seize the day have bad attitudes??? exactly the opposite! would not even let me pay for the owner's time while waiting... 2) Next day re-do - Able to access unit but contents not adequately packed, fixtures screwed to the walls, some furniture requiring dis-assembly... not to mention that yesterday was the final day of the lease... so today needs to happen - today! **** Did seize the day have bad attitudes??? not even remotely... these guys had their own tools in hand and were taping baggies of screws to the furniture the screws had been removed from and sliding mattresses into the disposable covers i had purchased at U-Haul... before i had given one instruction to do so... 3) Truck packed, but where will Josh be driving it to?? ummmm, would you believe NO CLUE!!! (no joke...) and I'm not talking about the exact address needing to be looked up... I'm telling you we did not even know WHICH STATE (i swear, no joke...) **** Did seize the day have bad attitudes??? not at all!!!! Josh was so damn cool and flexible, i seriously think he should get a tattoo that says "Grace under Fire" 4) Think about this... So here is the person we met 36 hours ago yet I trusted so thoroughly that I handed him a fat wad of hundred dollar bills (payment, gas, and cash to pay the other laborers on the other end), a truck full of furniture, and the truck/trailer i had rented in my name... and sent this virtual stranger on his way... **** Did seize the day take advantage of the situation??? not at all!!!! Josh made good time and kept in contact with me all the while. a total GEM of a human being not to mention completely professional... 5) Once at the destination, the unload movers were not there and once contacted, were going to be 45 minutes late, which i have NO DOUBT put josh in rush-hour traffic coming back to San Diego... **** Did seize the day have bad attitudes??? not at all!!!! Josh just grabbed some lunch and waited... Okay, I know this is a long review but seeing as how you are still reading (lol) then you MUST have a BIG need for real HIGH TRUST PROBLEM SOLVERS as I did. please trust me when i tell you that even though it is so long, it still only expresses a tiny fraction of the stress, logistical complications, and emotional baggage that they handled with tremendous grace, competency, excellent communication/follow-through, and sheer professionalism from the moment i contracted them - and through the end when they confirmed there were no extra/surprise fees to cover. (even though i know FOR A FACT josh had to wait at least an extra 45 minutes for the unload laborers to arrive...) read more

Excellent, friendly and professional movers with very low ratesWe had an excellent experience while moving to a new apartment with the help of Seize the Day Logistics. I called them a day before we wanted to move and they were able to squeeze us into their busy schedule. We were really relieved on having found some help. Both the men were very decent and courteous and we were glad that we had bumped into their ad on Craigslist. They were right on time as promised and got into action immediately. It was amazing to see how fast they were moving and the number of things they were carrying. Though we had a lot of stuff, they managed to fit everything neatly in the van halving the time. This was great for us since we ended up saving some bucks and also the miles on the UHaul van.Also, we found them very fair since they charged us fairly i.e without rounding up the hours (it took something like 2 h 10 m and we were charged only for 2h15m). They handled all our stuff very carefully, including delicate things like crockery, electric board and TV. They also placed all the stuff in room and positions we wanted them to in the new apartment. The thing that impressed the most was that they carefully also packed a part of my table without damaging it a bit. I was really impressed by their smart thinking. I would recommend Thomas and his team to anyone who is looking to move in/around San Diego. I myself would not think of calling anyone else than Seize the Day Logistics. read more

I had contacted these folks looking to reserve them for my upcoming move and they were professional from the start... I had left a voicemail and got a response back within the hour. They kindly answered all my questions and I made a reservation. SeizeTheDayLogisitics contacted me the day before my truck loading day confirming my reservation. Thankfully, a few of my buddies came to the rescue and volunteered to help me out with loading my moving truck (so I could save some cash) and SeizeTheDayLogisitics were very friendly and professional with regard to my cancellation. Based on my experience with them, I feel confident that they would have done an amazing job since their customer service is already top notch. read more

Before I begin, I simply wish to caveat that my friend was the paying customer, not I. However, having gone through the experience with her, I felt it necessary to add my 2 cents. From the moment they arrived, Josh (the owner) and his crew of 2 (sorry, I'm embarrassed, I forgot your names) were excellent! Being professional and personable, respectful and courteous, they not only followed instructions to the letter, but also gave helpful suggestions when the situation warranted them. They loaded the truck with speed and efficiency, allowing us to embark from Wildomar in just over an hour. We only had a couple of miniscule hiccups, not worth detailing, but Josh rapidly went ABOVE AND BEYOND to make them absolutely painless, looking out for my friend in a big way, which was much appreciated! If I could ever afford to hire movers, I would call them without hesitation. You guys are the epitome of excellent customer service and satisfaction, and have my 100% recommendation. Bonus points: Based on my experience today, Josh and crew get extra kudos from me for coming off very LGBT friendly, or at least respectful. For someone like me, that goes a long way and builds massive good will. read more

I know what you're thinking. You're looking at this wall of solid 5-star reviews, thinking there's no way that Thomas and Josh are as incredible as these random San Diegans make them out to be, right? Well... They are, I promise. I called them in a pinch (morning of the move) to assist in unloading a 26' Penske truck when my help bailed on me. The other companies I'd called that morning declined to answer their phones... Their loss. Thomas was extremely accommodating of my late start time (5:45 PM) and kept in contact with me as the truck slowly made its way to San Diego. I was a little skeptical of their form of transportation (an old GMC Sonoma), but their professionalism proves you should never judge a book by its cover. They got right down to work and had no problem with me and my family assisting in the unload. I've seen movers in the past claim that, for insurance reasons, no one can assist them in a load or unload--a convenient way to wind up the clock, in my opinion. We chatted pleasantly for an hour and a half or so during the unload, something some movers would struggle to accomplish. They clearly strove to make me feel comfortable during the unloading process and were very welcoming on behalf of San Diegans everywhere. We banged out the entire thing in that 90 minutes or so and I declined their offers of having them put the beds together, etc--they'd already done more than enough work for the day and deserved to go home to their families at that point. They use Square, so payment (cash or credit card) is a breeze. Your invoice is emailed to you--claim those job-related moving expenses on your taxes! Extremely professional, obviously skilled at what they do, but, above all, they're great PEOPLE underneath their t-shirts and Seize the Day hats. Stop reading Yelp reviews and call them now, okay? You won't find anyone better, that's for certain. read more

These guys are awesome!!!!! They were right on time sooooo professional and super nice as well ! I would highly recommend them!!!! read more

Can not say enough great things about this company! Thomas, the owner, was great at keeping in touch with me prior to our move. The gentlemen arrived 10 minutes ahead of schedule and started working INCREDIBLY fast the minute they arrived. They were personable, professional and very friendly. All of my items were handled with care and they did a great job of assembling the items I asked them to do upon arrival. Thomas even helped me trouble shoot an issue I was having with my dryer before they left. Awesome company and a great group of guys!! I assure you 100%, if you hire Seize the Day Logistics, you will be more than satisfied!!! read more

Two words: Use them. These guys actually showed up early, worked quickly and efficiently and helped us out with some of the overflow during the load into the truck. When we got to the facility where we had to unload onto another truck they worked even better. They were able to fit everything in to our trailer remarkably well and kept the space we used to a minimum to help us keep our costs down. I strongly recommend Seize the Day if you have to move. They're the best I've ever worked with! read more

I've moved plenty of times, and have been fairly lucky with my the caliber of my movers, but my experience with Seize the Day was by far the best move experience I've ever had. Thomas and Josh are the most high-integrity, hard-working, honest people in this business. My interactions with both of them (Thomas for initial coordination and Josh for day-of) were efficient, more than polite, and timely. Our move could not have gone better, and it was entirely due to them. I would absolutely recommend Seize The Day for your move again and again. read more

These guyz are just awesome ! Bob , Alex and TJ helped me out with moving a 2 bed 2 bath apartment . They got a huge yellow truck for moving - it was more than enough. I had sofa , couch , 2 beds , entertainment unit and some furniture along with lot of kitchen stuff put in boxes. They were extremely efficient , courteous and careful while moving . All the stuff was moved within exactly 3 hours . This is my 2nd time with seize the day and they continue to maintain high level of professionalism . read more

Great customer service! I called them the day before my husband and I had to move after finding out our friends weren't able to help us out. They were quick to help us out and get a truck at the last moment. The two guys who helped move us were AMAZING! They were very professional, polite and worked at an amazing pace. It only took us 3.5 hours to move from San Diego to San Marcos while having to go up and down three flights of stairs at both locations. I would recommend them to anyone I know who is moving. read more

Just finished up with a local move with these guys and I must say I was impressed, and you can ask my wife I don't impress that easy. They showed up on time and where ready to go, the other big thing for me was the manners, super polite. I had a medium amount of stuff to move due to it only being an apartment but the down side was that I lived on the third floor and that a pain to do anything with. They took the time to be careful with all the stuff but also showed great hussle even on all those stairs. The job got done as quickly as possible and for a lot less then most of the others were charging. Kudos to these guys. read more

We contracted with Seize the Day Logistics as part of a UHaul move for my daughter from a one bedroom apartment. They were very reasonably priced and accommodated a last-minute scheduling request. Great customer service! They were on-time, efficient and did a great job. Thanks! read more

In a word, Seize The Day was AMAZING. I don't know where to start, I've moved a awful lot in my life, and they were indeed the best movers my husband and I have used. They came early, worked very fast, but gentle with our furniture...I can't say enough about these guys. They're affordable and professional, this is the only movers we'll ever use. YES, I recommend them to my family and everyone else. Thanks guys read more

This Company was on time worked fast and efficiently the movers were very friendly and nice and finished under time. I recommend this moving company without reservation read more

We had an EXCELLENT moving experience with Seize the Day. I had no issues with communication via email and text. Joshua and Abel were quick, efficient, careful and polite. They moved everything out of our condo in lightening speed and even showed me where one piece of our furniture was broken (darn IKEA) and told me my options with placing and storing it at our new house. They were really respectful to our over protective HOA; they monitored the whole process which they charged us $140 for (RUDE!). Once at our new place they were super quick and careful unloading all of our things. I forgot a box of very fragile owl collectibles I had in one of our entertainment center cabinets and everything was in one piece! Shows that they treat your items with respect. They even complimented us on how well we were prepared and had everything boxed up. Would use them again and highly recommend them. read more

I am very disappointed with the level of service I received. While initially agreeing to move my belongings into a PODS container, they later completely dropped the ball. They did not return any of my phone calls or texts to confirm the time of their arrival. The woman I spoke to, who eventually returned my calls, said that she did not work for the company anymore and that I could leave a voice mail and someone might get back to me. No one did. When Hire-a-helper attempted to contact them on my behalf, they too were unable to directly contact anyone, or receive any sort of response. This left my fiancé and I desperately making phone calls in the attempt to hire movers on short notice. Words cannot possibly express my level of disappointment in their business practices. read more

Highly recommend these guys! Very professional and courteous!! They were prompt and they did the job fast within less than 2 1/2 hours!! I will definitely hire them again if we ever move again but in the mean time... You will not be disappointed !! read more

What a fantastic moving company! We called today to see if they had any openings (for today!) and they not only accommodated us, but did a fantastic job. They are professional, courteous, fast and great for budget-conscious families. I will never move by myself again. Thank you so much guys! read more

David, Joshua, Abraham, and Melvin did what I believed to be the impossible! They took the stress out of my moving day! They were delightful to work with and helped me with all my moving concerns and issues. I almost wish I had to move more so I can continue to benefit from their EXCELLENT customer service. In addition, working with Thomas over phone or text was always a pleasure. If you hire them, know that you are going to get great service and support genuinely wonderful people! read more

Seize the Day saved the day! I had 2 days notice that I needed to move and was in a pinch. I called Seize the Day and they added a second crew onto their schedule to accommodate my moving needs. They showed up with their own well maintained dollies/hand trucks and tie downs (thank goodness because I had forgotten to pick one up). They were professional, efficient, worked well as a team, very polite (reminded me of southern gentlemen), and extremely hard working! They had a great attitude all day and am so appreciative of their excellent work ethic. Bonus - I am so happy to support a family business and military vets! I work in real estate and will be referring this company to all my clients! You won't be disappointed. Thanks again guys, look forward to working with you again! read more

Seize the Day Logistics was so helpful, strong, and knowledgeable about moving heavy and delicate furnishings. They helped me move a four bedroom three story house full of King beds and mirrored furniture from the mountains. They came back a few days later to help me reorganize and set up my home. Let them pack you too. Not one broken piece. I'm grateful I won't be moving again soon, but when I do I will definitely call them. read more

Thomas and his crew were awesome! As a marine he treats his customers with respect and his work ethic made for a quick efficient move. They made booking super easy too - I just texted what I needed and got a confirmation quote right back. Pretty slick. They showed up on time and were also willing to stay an hour longer than I booked. Highly recommend Seize the Day! read more

I used Seize the Day Logistics to help with my move from CA to AZ and they were a delight to work with. I hired them to simply help me load my U-Haul and the process went as smooth as can be. Their manager, Thomas, is very personable on the phone. He called me to confirm the time and other details several weeks in advance as well as the day of. The two guys he sent were both very polite and professional. They worked well together, treated myself and my belongings very respectfully, and organized my things in the back of the U-Haul in an efficient manner. These guys really know what they're doing and they do it well. I would highly recommend their services, they were truly a pleasure to work with at every step. read more

I called on Tuesday for help unloading my portable storage units on Thursday. Two movers came on time, and worked incredibly hard to finish in less time than I had paid for. They were professional and so hard working. Cannot recommend enough! read more

These guys are great! My wife and I moved from Encinitas to Charlotte, NC, and used a moving pod to ship our stuff. I needed some help with a couple of big items and that's all I really expected from them. They have a 2 hour minimum by California state law though, so I said we'd pack the big things, and then whatever else we could get after that would be fine. They packed the entire pod with ALL of our stuff in the 2 hours. They really busted their butts. It was awesome. Highly Highly recommend these guys. And we just unloaded the pod here in Charlotte and they packed it really well. Nothing shifted in transit and all our stuff arrived safe and sound and undamaged. Great experience. Please use them!! read more

Thomas and Josh were able to fit me into their schedule at the last minute. They were both very professional. I'd definitely hire them for a move again. read more

I hired two movers for two hours. They arrived promptly at the previously scheduled time and got right to work. Both gentlemen were extremely knowledgable and took pride in their job. They were extremely professional and efficient. It only took them 1.5 hours to load my 2 bedroom, 1400sqft home. They made sure all of my furniture was covered so no damage would be done. They also gave me tips on how to prevent damage while driving cross country. I HIGHLY recommend this company for anyone's moving/packing/loading needs. If I could give these guys more stars I would. read more

Melvin and Dave showed up to unload our 3 trucks into our new home and we couldn't have ask for 2 better guys. They worked the entire time and moved very quickly but treated our belongings with care. I don't know where they had all the energy because we were essentially moving into a 3 story home. They were both nice gentlemen and very respectful. We were so satisfied with their help and highly recommend this company. We couldn't have done this move without them. Thanks guys! read more

Seize the Day Logistics is absolutely the best moving company I have ever used. First, they fit me into their schedule when another mover had to cancel on me. The gentlemen were prompt, courteous, fast and caring. Joshua, Abraham and DeAndre more than met their goal of getting my stuff moved safely and quickly, in order to save me money. I will be recommending them to anyone in the area who needs a very professional moving company. read more

Unfortunately my second experience wasn't as good :-( I had to call several times to get my move confirmed before hand. While the guys were still hardworking and overall respectful on the day of the move, we had some "hiccups" including a broken item (this was partially my fault due to how I packed it, but I still felt more care could have been taken) and one mover being gone for awhile to get more blankets because the original ones had gotten wet in the back of the truck due to the rain. I was given a break on the price because of this, which I appreciated. I am still giving the 3 stars due to Joshua's kindness and respectfulness and I would give these guys another chance if I move again, hoping next time I can give more stars. read more

These guys are great! Courteous, respectful and hard working. I needed somebody to help right away and they showed up when they said they would, took care of business in a knowledgeable manner. Really good guys. Thanks! read more

These guys are awesome!!!! Thomas, the manager, is such a sweetheart!!! He made my first contact with the company very easy and helpful. He stayed in touch with me right up until they arrived to load my moving truck. His co-worker was also a gem as well!!! Thomas even sent me a text later in wishing me well on my move and life journey. Also he said MERRY Christmas !!!! I totally recommend these guys and be sure to give them a great tip. They are professional and clean cut and their demeanor is very Godly, this is the main thing!!!! Love these guys!!!! Thank you!!!!! read more

These guys are absolutely the best. They are the most conscientious, careful, friendly, and helpful movers I have ever used. I used them a few months ago, and used them again this weekend. These were moves with multiple stops too. Since I've used them twice, add to the list that they are consistent. Once you use these guys, you will never use other movers again. I can't speak more highly of these guys, they are the real thing. read more

I recently booked Seize the Day Logistics (SDL) for my move. I was moving from a two-story 2000+ sf home to another two-store 2000+ sf home in the county. Josh and his crew were amazing. They were punctual with our start time. They had the old house loaded up in less than 3 hours and unloaded at the new home in less than 1.5 hours. All in all the move took less than 5 hours and I couldn't be happier. Their professionalism and care for our personal belongings was second to none. If I have to move again I will look no further than SDL. read more

These guys were GREAT. They were on time, professional, and just chill guys. They were very careful with my stuff and the price was the best deal i found.. And trust me I CALLED AROUND. I would recommend them highly read more

These guys rock! David and Thomas were on time, professional, quick and beyond efficient. Never once let the rain deter them and stayed beyond the scheduled time to set us up for success. I've moved twice in the last year and they were by far the best I've encountered. I highly recommend them. read more
