We had the best experience with Jose and his crew! They were very responsive to communication leading up to our move, they showed up early the day of the move and worked overtime to get the job done. We had some things packed but we needed a lot of help the day-of and Jose and his guys were quick to jump in and pack boxes for us, it would have been a much longer and more stressful move without them. I would highly recommend White Red Moving, they were wonderful to work with, offered us a more reasonable price than some other companies and are really hard workers. read more

Worst movers ever! We hired Jose and crew for a cross country move. When he arrived to give us an estimate, his pitch was that he would treat our belongings as if they were his own prized possessions...so far from the truth! We asked him about storage given the fact that we had not secured our new home and he replied that he had a warehouse. We specifically asked if it was "simply a storage unit." Oh no, "he replied." (Not true...see photo.) We did our due diligence and checked his reviews, and called some references that he provided. I checked the DOT website to confirm his credentials. The site stated that his was not authorized for interstate moving. I asked him about it and he said that he simply needed to update/renew (he sent a copy of the form that he submitted.) On the day of delivery, I asked to see his cargo insurance (following best practices). He was offended and said he did not want to do the job because we don't trust him. (He did not have cargo insurance.) We had a deadline and did not have the time to secure another mover on that day. We appeased him and moved forward. Fast forward to delivery day about 7 weeks later. He was missing so many items, and there was so much damage! He left an entire pallet behind...sofa, queen size headboard to name a few. When i said that I was missing designer bags his response was that I was lying and did not have any...WHAT? When he returns to CA he discovers my things (see photos). He then has my things shipped on a pallet. I am still missing items...designer umbrellas, RH bath accessories, lamp shade...the list is too long. Adding insult to injury, roaches were crawling out of the boxes from his "warehouse" and a mouse was brought into my new home! Horrific experience! I may need to seek legal advice as the cost of repairs, extermination, and replacement of missing items is growing exponentially! The UPack container was assembled/shrink wrapped by Jose and arrived just as he prepared it. See photo read more

This was my second time using White Red Moving - only this time I was moving out-of-state from Belmont, CA to Coeur d'Alene, ID. Jose and his crew were very professional, friendly, and hard-working. I lived in a second story apartment with no elevators. They did a great job packing my furniture, lamps, appliances, etc. and worked tirelessly hauling everything downstairs. Met me in Idaho and helped set up everything in my house. I would highly recommend White Red Moving. read more

Jose and his team just helped us with our move from a 2-bedroom townhouse in Pacifica to a three-bedroom house in Montara. Jose was extremely communicative and responsive at every step. He gave a clear and reasonable quote, and the team was prompt, professional, and respectful. They handled the move with care and attention and worked tirelessly until the job was done. I had a smaller second special item request and Jose was able to accommodate me within a few days. Can't say enough good things about Jose and his crew. Thank you! read more

Excellent moving company!! We chose this company bc of all the great reviews and glad we did - very easy process - Jose and his nephew came on time and got to work efficiently and quickly. Wrapping and protecting everything not boxed - really happy with their service - definitely use again - highly recommend read more

We had Jose and his crew move a large, heavy, and cumbersome 6-person hot tub down a long flight of stairs and into a corner of our patio. There wasn't much space and it was a delicate move too. White Red movers did a great job handling it all. read more

White Red Moving and Storage moved me from a house to an apartment - with two months of storage in between. They were wonderful. Everything arrived safely. The movers were excellent - helpful, friendly and efficient. Jose was great. Gave me an exact quote and stuck to it. He explained everything very carefully and was always available by phone to answer questions and to make arrangements. I would definitely recommend this company to family and friends. read more

I am a huge fan of White Red Moving. After another moving company refused at the last minute to transport my grand piano with the rest of my possessions I called White Red. Jose Diaz understood my dilemma and agreed to make the move and within 3-hours was at my place. His team did a fabulous job disassembling, carefully packing it for shipment and transporting it from my 2nd floor condo to their truck. To save me money, they stored it for two months and then integrated it into another shipment making the same interstate move. Well in advance of delivery, Jose called to schedule the date and time and reconfirmed multiple times. The team arrived right on time, took great care moving in and reassembling the piano and made sure that I was satisfied with their services. There was not a single scratch or ding to my prized piano! I am very grateful to Jose and White Red for rescuing me such that I was able to successfully make the move from the Bay Area to Reno with my piano. The move cost was very reasonable and it was a pleasure working with Jose and the White Red moving team. I highly recommend them! read more

Superb job with Jose and his team of moving professionals for my long-distance move from SF to LA for my 1BD apartment (around 700 sq ft). It was a very pleasant experience. I had a last minute request to move in just a matter of days. He was able to accommodate and work with me. He brought a team of 5 gentlemen to help, which I don't think happens every time. His crew brought shrink warp and furniture blankets to wrap all of my furniture. He also had extra boxes, tools, and supplies in case I didn't have enough. The unloading itself took only 1.5-2 hrs and his team was extremely careful and gentle with my belongings. His team also does assembling and disassembling, which was super helpful. Everyone was COVID safe and wore masks. After that, his team was very communicative over text to coordinate logistics. During unloading, two of his crew members drove down from SF to my home in LA. They completed unloading in about 2 hrs as well. They also were extremely gracious in helping us move furniture within the home to make space for the incoming furniture (which included a mini grand piano). Overall, I really enjoyed working with Jose and his team. It's awesome to also be able to work with local, small business owners instead of large corporate moving companies that forward you to various operators. I called about 6 other moving companies and had very red tape experiences that felt very transactional. The price was also quite generous and competitive compared to the other companies. I tried tipping more since the experience was so positive. I hope our communities can support our local businesses more! read more

White Red Moving & Storage - Loading from SF! - Movers Near Me - San Mateo, California

Jose was super helpful (and informative) on the phone during my initial call (when I was comparing options) as well as when I called back, ready to schedule our move. Our four man team arrived early and we spent a few minutes walking through the house explaining what needed to be moved and what should remain. The guys wasted no time, were hard working and very respectful of our stuff. They made sure all the furniture was wrapped securely before loading it onto the truck. Upon arrival at our new place they ensured every single item was exactly where we wanted it. At the end of the move, they clearly explained our charges and payment was a breeze. We learned about White Red from a family member and wholeheartedly recommend them for any of your moving needs. The crew wore masks the entire time and my family and I felt extremely safe during these crazy COVID times. Although we are planning on staying put for a while, we'll be sure to use White Red again for our next move. Thanks again, Jose! read more

Jose and his crew moved us six times in three years. Yes, six times and thank goodness we have him on speed dial! This move was a bit different because we now have a toddler during COVID. Jose and his crew all wore masks and had hand sanitizers available. Andrea, Michael, and Mario were the dream team during the move out/in:)) Moving day: His crew showed up, like always, on time:)) I gave them clear instructions on what needed to move and what needed to stay for donations. They followed all my instructions without me or my wife checking up on them. In fact, we put all our energy toward our toddler and didn't think twice about the movers. We trust them so much and have recommended them to our friends and colleagues. Upon unpacking, all our items, our art pieces, chinaware, wine glasses and all fragile items were in perfect conditions and well labeled. Storage: They perfectly packed their truck to have all items taken from our old storage to our new storage unit and we experienced no issues with what needed to go to our new home and what needed to stay in our new home. Special request: We asked Jose to please assemble our toddler/baby room before any other room and they took note of it and completed our request so our boy can have an easy transition to his new room. Thank you so much!!!! Thank you for making our move stress-FREE. Please feel free to email me if you have any questions about my experiences with this moving company at silvafamily827@gmail.com read more

Updated review: I appreciate Jose for trying to rectify the situation. But I did buy the mat from Amazon and I have the receipt for it. It's absurd that I am trying to scam them. First review: I liked the crew. They arrived on time and work hard. After the move, when we were unpacking, I found a damage on a baby item due to the residue of the moving tape they used. It would not come off. I contacted Jose and he said he would send a check to replace the cost of the item. I waited and waited but no check came. I called again and he insisted that he has mailed the check. I asked him to check his bank account in case someone have stolen the check in the mail, but never heard back. At this point, I don't bother anymore. read more

White Red Moving & Storage - Movers Near Me - San Mateo, California

No hesitation to recommend these movers! Jose came to our Palo Alto home within a day of our calling for an estimate. He did top to bottom walk-thru to determine all that we needed to move and had a quote to us within 12 hours. At first, was concerned because quote was lower price than a couple competitors. However the competitors had significantly under estimated the amount of time it would take, and with all packing materials and more time we would have ended up paying significantly more. He made good estimate of how long it would take for two trip from old to new home and didn't change price when it took a few extra hours. And everything was so well packed and taken well care of that nothing was damaged . Also was very flexible in making arrangements to pick up all the wrapping paper and packing boxes so they could be recycled to. Very fair reasonable price and entire crew friendly and super efficient. You're in very best hands with White Red Moving. read more

These guys came to my house and they rock on what they do, they are fast and very knowledgeable on how to organize stuff, I had not one single item damaged, I'll use them anytime I need and I will refer to others ppl that I know, GREAT JOB! Also make sure to leave stuff somewhat organized for them , that's makes your costumer life and they're life a lot better. read more

Jose and his team moved a grand piano and several boxes from Marin to Southern California for me. He was easy to work with as I was flexible on moving dates and moved everything in good condition. He wrapped the piano very well and put it back together upon arrival. His price was very reasonable. I would strongly recommend him for any move you need! read more

White Red Moving & Storage - Grand piano moved safely! - Movers Near Me - San Mateo, California

Jose's team went above and beyond in moving our family of five all the way from San Jose to Irvine (Southern CA). Everything was in excellent condition even with the long move. They were fast, efficient and the cost was extremely reasonable. For long or short relocations, this is the team to have! read more

Just moved from the Bay Area to Seattle and they made it so easy. We paid extra for them to pack and unpack for us and found it worth every penny. Highly recommend! read more

It's our first time to use a mover and I must say, we had a positive experience with them. They were efficient and the estimate provided wasn't far off from actual cost so that is good. We highly recommend them and would definitely use their service in the future read more

Jose and his team did a fantastic job with our move! We had a missing wheel on one of our chairs and Jose went an extra mile and bought a new wheel for us and drove 50 min just to get us that wheel set up on our chair! Really appreciate his help and the kind of service White Red Moving and Storage offers! read more

When the movers showed up with a rental truck, I was a little nervous but these guys crushed it and then some. Took less than two hours for them to load up a 15x15 storage unit, drive about 10 miles and unload it into my new place. I had a great result with my movers in Portland who loaded things up but certainly not this fast! Everything was loaded well, no signs of damage... Fantastic result and can't recommend these guys enough. read more

Setting up the move through Jose was really simple. He was also prompt in all responses and ensured that I knew exactly what to expect. His crew worked their butts off, and moved our 2 bedroom apartment in the city in ~4 hours and were extremely careful with our stuff and the units. I'll be recommending this company to any friends and or acquaintances in the area. read more

Very professional and efficient team. This was the second time we worked with them and it was a great experience.

This is a long overdue review! I have used Jose and his crew for 2 house moves and several office moves and I can't say enough good things about them. Efficient, on time, respectful, kind and CAREFUL are the best words to describe this company. Booking is always a breeze, Jose is quick to reply and transparent on availability and cost. This is definitely a company I will use time and again for all my moving jobs. Thanks Jose!! read more

We moved from Pacifica to Antioch in October. This was the first major move as we had been in Pacifica for over 16 years so the stress of packing up everything and making sure everything got to where it needed to be was priority for us. We contracted with Jose after reviewing several other options, but the one fee pricing and the speed to which his team completed their work was very calming and reassuring. They took their time and asked questions to ensure everything got loaded and unloaded properly. I dont expect to move again, but if I did, I would give Jose and his team the first call for a quote. Thank you for getting us all of our stuff, including the plants, to where they needed to be. read more

If I had written this review a year and a half ago, it would have been four stars (they were a little slow), but I didn't write a review of their move from my house to storage, then from storage to new home. The move was good enough that I used them again...big mistake! I confirmed twice that Jose and his guy would arrive at my condo at 8:30, the latest 9:00am. The cost would be the time spent once he arrived at my door until the end of the job in San Jose, plus drive time back to San Mateo (30 minutes). I had a very tight schedule that day, which I had made Jose aware of, and arranged other professionals around the times they would arrive and be done. Right around 9:00, I called Jose and he told me he hadn't left San Mateo yet (to get up to San Francisco), but would bringing another guy. I confirmed that I wouldn't be paying for the extra mover as we only had two beds, table/chairs, bookshelf, and a few of boxes. Jose finally arrived at 10:00...an hour and a half late! They were able to load the items up in about 30 minutes and we left for San Jose. One of his guys came with me so I could drop some items from my car off in San Mateo. I confirmed while we were in the car that he was taking 101 and he said he was on it by Candlestick (about 5 minutes behind us). Well, his guy and I dropped off an SUV FULL of items in San Mateo, then got back on the road. I called when were about to get off the freeway in San Jose, assuming he was ahead of us, but NO, he had switched over to 280 and was only in Woodside! We got to San Jose and waited . . . and waited . . . and waited. We had to wait over 40 minutes for him to arrive. Then when he arrived, he wasn't apologetic, he didn't offer any consolation, knowing I had an appointment to get to that I would now be late for. Then when they were done, Jose tried to tell me he was charging me for drive time to San Francisco (from San Mateo), a minimum of two hours, and an hour back to San Mateo (only takes 30 minutes). We had agreed when we spoke on the phone that the clock would start when he arrived in San Francisco and then he'd get an extra 30 minutes to get back to San Mateo when the job was completed. I was furious! He had arrived an hour (or more) late, wasted well over an hour traveling between San Francisco and San Jose, then tried to charge me extra money. We ended up agreeing to a charge (which was still more than I believe he deserved, but I needed to get to pick up my children and get to my next appointment). Overall, a horrible experience and I would NOT recommend White and Red moving!! read more

I was recommended to use this company by an RE agent who refers services like this to his clients. Unfortunately, my experience wasn't so great. They are not the worst but I'm not exactly thrilled. My first interaction was with Jose. Jose was prompt with pricing and very thorough. He gave me pricing and I immediately relaxed thinking I'd be well taken care of. The day of the move, Jose showed up on time and his movers showed up shortly after (about 10 minutes after) He directed his team on what to handle. I have a 1 bedroom apartment on a 2nd floor of a building. Jose left shortly after and I had 2 movers. One of the movers made an inappropriate comment which I just bypassed and ignored since i just wanted to get the move going. Anyway, Most of my items were packed up sans some loose items that went into wardrobe boxes that they brought. That's pretty standard. They did a great job of wrapping up the bed and the dresser. I noticed the move seemed a little slow in comparison to other moves i've done but I assumed it was because there were stairs involved, etc. 3 or so hours later, we were ready to leave. My car decided to misbehave so I had to ride with the truck. We got to the destination and things seemed to be moving along. A couple of times, I noticed that there were spurts of times where I didn't see them come in. I happened to look out the window and I noticed the 2 of them hanging out in the truck. Once I came out, they started moving again. I can not confirm how much time was spent taking breaks but needless to say, I wasn't exactly thrilled. By no means am I saying that these guys didn't work. It's clear they put all the stuff in and did the work. We continued on. I got a ride back to the apartment which again, I thanked them for. Overall, I spent a lot more than I figured I would and after talking to several people who have done similar moves with more stuff, I found that they paid less even with my Yelp purchase. Now here's the worst part. My landlord and new housemate has noticed damages to the walls from items being moved in. Not only is he upset but that certainly makes me look bad as the new tenant. On top of that, I spoke a neighbor from my old building who was around during the move. He told me he saw them hanging out at the truck a few times not doing anything while i was occupied and overheard them saying inappropriate stuff. Though I can't say that is true since I was not there to witness it but it certainly does not leave a good feeling at all. read more

These guys are the best! We decided to hire movers at the last minute, and they accommodated us on a Saturday with only 3 hours advanced notice. They were on time, well-priced, and super fast! Highly recommend. read more

Jose has moved me and my husband twice now. I have referred him to my cousins, parents, workplace, and friends. Everyone agrees that he is the absolute best - professional, smart, flexible, and reliable. His crew is amazing. They are efficient, reasonably priced, and get the job done in no time. Among other things, we have an extra large Big Green Egg bbq, a huge treadmill, weight bench, and a large vanity with a mirror. Jose and his team dealt with all of this seamlessly! Top notch service - you would be foolish to hire anyone else. read more

We were looking to move a studio apartment's worth of stuff into a storage unit on relatively short notice. Jose was super friendly on the phone, gave us a discounted rate, and responded quickly to our questions with honest, genuine answers. On the day of the move, he arrived on time and finished the day job efficiently within 3 hours. I would definitely recommend Jose for his customer service and speed! read more

Jose of White Red Moving & Storage, was the best choice I've ever made when deciding to hire movers. They were quick, careful, friendly and efficient. On top of it all, my items were cared for like they were their own and they didn't break the bank on cost. I would highly suggest White Red Moving & Storage for anyone who is moving. I will definitely be using them again for my moving needs in the future! Thanks! read more

I was told that moving my 1 bedroom apartment would take about 3 hours. It took 5. I only had 8 pieces of furniture to move as I'd moved everything else myself during the week prior to my appointment with White Red. The two young men that showed up were very polite but extremely, aggravatingly SLOW. I've moved many times and I've never seen two people take so long to move a sofa, a queen bed, one dresser, a kitchen table, a small desk, an easy chair, and two bookshelves. There was also a bit of a language problem as they'd ask me where to place things and they consistently put them somewhere else. Some items were dinged and scratched a bit too, but I know it wasn't because they were rushing to get the job done. In the end, I ended up paying over $200 more than I'd planned to. Never again. read more

Pretty good and efficient move. Only issue was that multiple of our large plants were not not taken very good care of. A few of them have broken large stems, and two had to be entirely repotted. We did ask beforehand if they have experience moving plants, to which they said yes, but we didn't really watch them pack them, so didn't realize until we unloaded. It's unfortunate and I know moving plants is tricky, but if you care a lot about your plants, White Red may not be the best choice. read more

These guys were great. They were super affordable and quoted me hundreds of dollars less than other companies. They showed up on time, moved everything and packed anything not boxed. Nothing was really damaged nor did anything arrived dirty. They made sure everything got in the right spot. The owner was awesome, he was super communicative, friendly and flexible. read more

These guys are great. They showed up on time and finished the job faster than I thought possible. Nothing was damaged and everything was treated with care. Would recommend for any home move in the Bay Area. read more

We had a great experience with white red moving & storage. The team arrived on time (in fact, earlier). we had extra movers in the beginning who helped without any charges. The team was very professional, so kind, and very efficient. Had 0 issues and the rate is also really great. No hidden charges (mattress covers, huge box that put little bags or things). Great crew! Thanks Jose. read more

These folks are the BEST. We needed to move our office pronto ~ it was technical and messy. We tried to be organized ~ but well... These folks took us cheerfully in hand, moved and placed everything in an astonishingly efficient amount of time. Want hard work with a smile? Check. Want someone to look out for you? Check. Want good advice? Check. Caring, hard working and great value. read more

Jose and his crew helped me move a couple times, they are very efficient and professional. They really do know what they are doing. I 100% recommend them. They are really polite and they put every single thing where it supposed to be at. They saved me a lot of time. read more

We used White Red Moving to move all of our furniture and belongings into storage while we sold our house and had our new house renovated. Jose and his team were very professional. They provided us a quote on pricing - which they kept to. They treated our belongings with the greatest care - wrapping almost everything in plastic or blankets to protect it. We took advantage of their storage facilities. When we finally moved in to our new place, they unpacked everything and placed things in the correct room. They even disassembled and reassembled our bed! Overall, we were very pleased with the service we received. I would happily recommend them. read more

Jose and his crew helped us move last September from San Mateo to South San Francisco and they were awesome! Jose and his team were very quick at loading our boxes and furniture into his truck and unloading everything at our new place. They disassembled and reassembled all our furniture with no problems. None of our stuff got damaged during the move. They were very professional, responsive, and a pleasure to work with. Definitely recommend them for folks looking to move in the peninsula. read more

My wife and I were in the process of moving to Sonoma County from San Mateo. We realized at the last minute that the task of loading our truck ourselves was too great. I called Jose and he was able to schedule for the next day! He and his two men superbly wrapped the furniture, packed the boxes, and had us ready to go in no time. Later that day, I asked him if he could come and load the remaining furniture on his own truck and haul it to Sonoma County for us. He said yes! Our furniture arrived beautifully padded and packed! Jose is extremely professional, and he and his men are wonderful to work with! Give him a try!! read more
