    We had a large (24 years of accumulated belongings in our 3 bedroom house), long (130 mile/2.5 hour) move, and Sweet Lemon proved to be up to the task. They arrived on time with four guys and a can-do attitude. They were really hard-working and tenacious over a 12-hour workday that entailed a steep driveway, two flights of stairs, and a LOT of driving. No move will be 100% stress-free, and we had a little worry over whether the truck would be big enough for all our stuff (it was, but just barely). Sweet Lemon got the move done in one day and within the estimate provided, and nothing was broken so far as I can tell. Francisco (who led the crew) was the epitome of graciousness. Highly recommend.

    The team, Guillerme, Carlos, and Rolando were friendly, fast, efficient, and careful, paying particular attention to our fragile boxes, taping lose plastic stacking container drawers, and shrink wrapping our sofa frame and cushions individually to reduce possibility of damage or dirt. They also took great care moving our 75 inch and 32 inch TVs securing each with blankets and shrink wrapping.  Next, they disassembled and then reassembled our storage bed frame and  headboard, carefully removing the attached mirror from the dresser, blanketed and shrink wrapped the 9 drawer dresser, two end tables, and 7 drawer chest, all bedroom furniture is real wood and heavy to move.  In our office, they quickly removed crates of files, two wooden tables, a wood bookcase, and two castered ergo chairs.  I had already moved my two computer stations and monitors to our new residence, along with our home entertainment system's components to be ready for internet connection scheduled later that same day. The best part of this move was Guillerme and the team's solution to moving in our 9 ft sofa with detachable chaise cushion and ottoman. By removing the sofa's legs, and angling the sofa through our front door and hallway, they were able to bring the sofa into our apartment "without  cutting it in half"... I also want to give props to Farzi for his skills and fairness estimating our move and guaranteeing a reasonable price and flat rate for today's move after seeing our furniture, belongings, and building and stair access through a virtual Zoom inventory call. Kudos also to Jim who scheduled the move and kept me apprised of the move status and arrival times. This move involved moving out of a second floor condo and moving in to our new place accessible by both an elevator for our boxed belongings and also climbing 3 flights of stairs to bring our larger furniture up to our 3rd floor unit! I highly recommend Sweet Lemon Moving Services as a reliable, efficient, and reasonably priced moving company.

    My new house!

This was for a one-way move from the Bay Area to Nevada, about a 4+ hour drive. Cost: reasonable and better than some other companies which wanted much much more. Fixed price based on what I described we had to move. I conferred w Nancy via phone, text, email. 4% fee if credit card is used. $200 deposit, can pay by cash/check/Venmo or Zelle. I used a cash app. There's no written contract. Moving day: Last month: movers Bao & Deng, don't speak English but seemed to understand us. Owner/supervisor Nancy came to out house to see, a surprise! Their moving truck was clean. Moved items from house and storage facility. They padded and plastic wrapped bigger items like sofa, dresser, desk, etc. They are efficient and know their stuff - what would've taken me and my family 3-4 hours to move they finished in 30 minutes! Nothing broken, nothing damaged. Payment: $200 cash tip each. $2,100 final payment via Cash App. Reliable, efficient movers, would use them again!

I asked why when fuel is not being consumed while loading / unloading. The answer that is what we do. Wow, that is strange to charge $13.00 per hour for a truck not using fuel. Additional there is a min 30 min travel time charge which would be an additional $65 for this move. Not using them! This also appears to be illegal in California "Unfair Competition Law (UCL): Charging for a service not rendered (like fuel not used) can be argued as "unfair or deceptive" under California Business and Professions Code § 17200, especially if the surcharge is used as a hidden profit center rather than a cost recovery tool." Below is a reply and here is my response: The information about the fuel fee was presented to be based on a percentage of the total move time. Not your actual cost, which I would have been okay with. I'm not asking for anything to be waived, just transparency. Your remarks about your family are completely out of line. It's clear you want to change the subject from your questionable practice and make this personal. It is not personal. I don't know you other than how you have presented your business here. Very Questionably. I see you removed your statements about your family business. I provided the law that it appears you are not following in a private message. Here it is again: Unfair Competition Law (UCL): Charging for a service not rendered (like fuel not used) can be argued as "unfair or deceptive" under California Business and Professions Code § 17200, especially if the surcharge is used as a hidden profit center rather than a cost recovery tool.

What I encountered was end-to-end excellence, from customer service to their excellent moving team. I knew our move would be a large one, so I booked a 26' truck and five-person crew. As the day of the move approached, I had lots of last-minute worries and questions and Sam, in Customer Service, answered every one and generally calmed my nerves, assuring me my move team would assist if we needed last-minute help. On the day of the move, the team arrived right on time. The foreman, Guillermo, assessed our situation and calmly confirmed my suspicious that we'd need two trucks (this my error, not OnTrack's). Before I could panic, he had contacted his team and we arranged that ours be a two day move. Guillermo's team wrapped our furniture and had the truck loaded swiftly. At the new house, we had a few of our family help direct traffic. I'd labelled every box with a color-coded room label and the team got everything to the proper room. On day two, Sammy -- part of the original crew -- acted as lead and we repeated the process. Here, a number of items still needed a bit of packing and his team had everything done in record time and -- bless them - marked the boxes for the proper room destinations without prompting. As I now unpack, I'm finding everything in excellent condition and couldn't be more grateful. We'd heard stories about moving nightmares and wanted to share a happy ending. Guillermo and Sammy were AMAZING and their crews were very hard working. Tips: my sister had a table of bottled waters, bags of chips, and other snacks ready for the team when we arrived at the new house. The team appeared grateful for the sustenance. We also tipped each person individually, in cash.

Adam was great explaining all the details during the booking process and what we could expect on our moving days. Fast forward to the day and our moving team showed up on time and ready to go. We booked full packing services and the guys jumped right in and got going on packing everything in a super professional manner. Our belongings were packing with a lot of care into boxes and furniture wrapped super well to prepare for a few months of storage and then a long distance move. The guys really went above and beyond to pack our pods really efficiently and maximized every bit of space. With that said we didn't end up having enough room so we scrambled and Adam made a storage and moving solution work for us for what we had remaining. It was a relief to have a versatile company step up and help with what could have been a huge problem for us. Would definitely recommend these guys especially for packing and moving, they work hard and really strive to do a good job. Shoutout to Islambek, Alex, Rinat (Ryan), & Dmitry for everything!

    Yelp guaranteed... Verified license…read more.. High marks from fellow Yelpers! We needed some large and heavy items moved from 100 miles away and selected Impel Moving. They provided an estimate with an upper maximum limit that we were comfortable with. Arrangements were made via email and over the phone, and the office staff were always courteous and responsive. We needed to get the things moved within a few weeks and they were willing and able to come based on our schedule. The team of four were on time and they were incredibly agile and strong. On moving day we received text updates on their arrival time. The team communicated and worked well with each other. They were fastidious about keeping track of their time, which we appreciated. For example, they stopped for lunch and deducted their time from the total. The movers were extremely careful and I was amazed at how efficient they were. They wrapped and boxed up items carefully so that nothing would be damaged. I was impressed watching them in action. A piano and pool table were included in the move and they had to navigate a few steps for these heavy items. Lots of heavy woodworking equipment was also moved and they placed it in the destination workshop in an organized fashion. We were totally satisfied with the results and appreciate their kind demeanor and strong work ethic. Thank you so much, Impel!

When we started, we discovered bugs, mold, and expired spices dating back to 2018 - it was genuinely concerning. Sylvia didn't just organize, she helped us create a healthier environment by thoroughly cleaning and purging everything that was unsafe. What impressed me most was how thoughtfully she designed solutions for our actual needs. She created a pull-out snack center at the perfect height for my 6-year-old son to reach his own snacks independently. She sourced all the organizing supplies from accessible stores like Target and Nordstrom Rack, so the solutions were both effective and budget-friendly. Sylvia listened to how we actually use our kitchen and created systems that make sense for our daily routines. The clear container system in the pantry makes it easy to see what we have and ensures nothing gets forgotten and expires again. Everything now has a designated place that's easy to maintain. The transformation went far beyond just making things look neater - Sylvia helped us create a space that's genuinely healthier and more functional for our family. I can't recommend her highly enough for anyone wanting to reclaim their kitchen from chaos while prioritizing safety and practicality.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

During the move, the driver hit and disconnected a cable line at our origin, knocking out service and creating additional stress while I was managing work on the backend. Accidents happen, but it set the tone. More concerning was how the bed itself was handled. The movers arrived without tools and used ours to disassemble it. When they reassembled the bed, they failed to properly tighten the screws, and one of the four critical support pieces that hold the bed frame together was missing entirely. I didn't discover this until a few weeks later, when the bed nearly collapsed. I have a baby and a dog at home, and the situation could have ended very badly. If a part was lost or damaged, we would have appreciated transparency. Instead, we were left with an unsafe setup and no communication. We tipped 20% at the time, assuming the job had been done properly, which makes the situation even more disappointing. I reached out to the company afterward and never received a response.
