I was given a start time of between 1:00 and 4:00. Movers didn't show up until 6:00 (after many phone calls). The contract was for 3 movers...2 extra were sent as a courtesy for being so late. At time of payment, the foreman was trying to charge me for the 2 extra men, AND extra for paying with a credit card, which was NOT in the contract. In the end that was settled (after many phone calls). The 5 movers were hard workers and got the job done in a fast and professional manner. However, management needs to work on customer skills and scheduling/time management of their crews. read more

Last month (August) I moved back to San Diego from Los Angeles. I never higher movers and enlist the help of friends. I guess I don't want to pay the money and I don't want my stuff ruined since I have heard plenty of horror stories. By the time I got to San Diego, I was tired and really just wanted to blow the truck up. LOL My friend said that he had used some movers not too long ago and they were great. He called and asked if they were available today and to my surprise they said they could be there by 4pm. AWESOME and even better was the price. I was floored at how reasonable their rate was. They showed up early and quickly got to work. There were two guys who were very professional and treated my stuff as if it were their own. Not once did I hear them bang any of my furniture. These guys were quick too. I'll be moving within the year as this was temporary and I'm definitely hiring them again. This time to load and unload. There's really no other way to move now. ;) So glad I found them. Thanks guys. You rock. read more

I used Workhorse Movers on June 29, 2014, and I am so glad I did. They were absolutely superb and I highly recommend them. They wrapped my furniture and carefully moved all my things down three fights of stairs, and then delivered my things to my townhouse twenty minutes away. They moved and set up everything perfectly, with no damage whatsoever. They did not charge any hidden fees that other movers had quoted (such as fuel fee, extra time for transportation, stair fee, extra fee for weekends, fees for using their wardrobe boxes and bubble wrap, etc.) Workhorse Movers didn't charge any of these extra fees at all. Workhorse Mover's fee was just as they had quoted - a straight hourly rate times the number of hours they worked. I couldn't be happier with their professionalism and moving expertise. I have already recommended them to my boyfriend and to my family, and I will definitely use only them whenever I need a mover in the future. Thanks again, Workhorse Movers for a smooth and easy move - you are the best! :) read more

WorkHorse Movers is the best in San Diego hands down. Johnny and Ronnie are experienced and very professional. They showed up promptly, took extreme care of my valuables and blanket wrapped all my furniture. Their team was nice, respectful and efficient. My property got to my new place in the same great condition it left my old place in. WorkHorse's Customer Service is top of the line. As long as I live in San Diego I will call WorkHorse for my moving needs. Thanks Ronnie and Johnny for a great moving experience. Best of all, there original quote was right on point. There was no hidden fees or charges like other moving companies. Definitely a 5 Star Company.... read more

I wish I could add more stars!! Ronnie and Johnny Green are and amazing pair who were on time, efficient, courteous, careful and clearly experienced professionals...Not only that, but they gave me a GREAT price for my local move. (I purchased an extremely heavy bedroom set from a friend of mine who was down-sizing, and even she cancelled her plans with another moving company she had scheduled for her own move a week later to contract these guys after seeing their incredible work...) They knew how to properly disassemble and reassemble this lovely furniture, and quickly!) So pleasant, great customer service, and an unbeatable price. Highly, highly, recommended!! read more

In a word...OUTSTANDING!!! The fellas from Workhorse Movers just completed a local move for me today and I cannot say enough great things about my experience. Johnny was excellent with communication prior to and the morning of our move and clearly explained the rates (which are extremely competitive based on other quotes that I got). The entire crew is professional and clearly takes great pride in what they are doing. All of our things were blanketed and carefully moved from one house to the next. The work was done quickly and efficiently and with the BEST attitude that you could ask for...all the guys are SUPER-cool! Seriously...look no further for movers and go with the crew at Workhorse!!! Thanks again Fellas!!! read more

WorkHorse movers are the Best in San Diego! I highly recommend Ronnie and Johnny for any type of move you have. They are efficient, experienced, and very professional. They took great care in protecting my valuables and made sure everything arrived safely. All of my furniture is oversized and heavy. They made sure to wrap it all carefully and get it to my new place carefully and quickly. I received excellent service for an amazing price too! I have nothing but great things to say about this moving company. No matter how small or big your move is call them because they are the best by far! read more

I only needed about an hour of work and most all moving companies charge at least a three hour minimum. I found this company and they only charged me for labor since I already had a truck. They were super quick and finished within an hour. I highly recommend these guys for any of your moving needs. read more

This company and its worker are great. They arrived on time. They wrap everything carefully to avoid damages, and they bring all the supplies they need. They work hard during the move and they are reasonably priced. I highly recommend them. read more

These guys are the most professional, honest, kind and hard working movers I have ever had the privilege to work with. They were so friendly and helpful. They treated our belongings as if they were their own. At the end of the day they still asked if here was anything else we needed help with. I fully trust them and will hire them again and again. read more

I am writing this review for my parents they had used Workhorse movers on June27th 2014. They were very satisfied with there service, They were on time and ready to work. They never took any breaks and they were very cautious when moving our things. I was surprised to see them wrapping every thing they moved. It shows they care about your belongings. They even moved my dads heavy and ugly cement pots. They would always keep in contact with us during the whole moving process. All the movers were very polite and extremely hard workers. You wont find a better deal anywhere else and for what they charge is a steal in my book. Will use them again in the future. read more

I moved on July 1, 2013 and everyone knows Moving can be a very stressful moment. Along came Ronnie and Jonnie (identical twin brothers) they were very kind, professional and personable. They arrived when they said they would and truly calmed my nerves of moving when I saw how they were packing and wrapping everything. They were just as pleasant at the beginning, as at the end of the 10-hour move. Nothing was scratched, dented or broken and they are truly very professional. They made sure nothing was missed and just when we thought we were done and realized there was one more load, they went, took care of it, without any frustration or any attitude about it. They were kind and professional all the way through. I would definitely use them again and will keep recommending them. Thanks Ronnie, Jonnie and team, you truly made this move a smooth one. read more

These guys are great. We had previously used a company based in LA for our last 3 moves and those guys are awesome. They got expensive and really didn't want to drive down to Chula Vista to help with a local move. So I had to look for a local San Diego area mover to help move our stuff. Saw these guys on yelp and they have great reviews. So I thought I give them a try. The experience was great. The guys were professional and courteous. They worked the entire time without stopping, I had to insist they break for lunch. They helped us pack the small stuff that I was too lazy to do. They wrapped all the big stuff and took care of all the furniture. The price as great and they have no interest in dragging out the time, even though I'm paying by the hour. There is no hidden charges. Everything was spelled out when I called to book the appointment. Inventory the boxes could be improved, but again that also takes time. They even helped the piano movers we hired when the piano movers couldn't do the job (and no, Workhorse Movers do not move pianos on their own). In short, these will be our go to guys in the future when we do move again. read more

Ronnie and Johnny are upstanding. I did a local move where I moved most of the small stuff myself, and was originally just going to get the professionals for the really big stuff (fridge, dinette, etc.) and move the medium stuff myself, but after seeing how fast and efficient they were, it basically didn't add anything to the cost to have them fill up the truck completely, and I'm glad I did, because it would have been a pain moving everything else (even though it was only 3 miles) in 5 or 6 carloads. Also, the way they wrapped and protected the fragile stuff was superb; it was obvious that they cared about my stuff. Can't say enough good things about them! read more

I can't even begin to rave enough about these guys!! My husband and I have moved so often we've been traumatized by the whole moving industry. Workhorse Movers cured us!! Johnnie and Ronnie are absolutely incredible. They are lightening fast and so good at what they do. They are thorough and respectful and do whatever it takes quickly and efficiently to get the job done. I can't believe I'm writing this but the whole experience was actually enjoyable!!! These guys are the consummate professionals. I will NEVER use anyone else again. read more

This review is way overdue....I used these guys back on February 2nd and I'm just getting around to taking care of this. Sorry! Really just getting settled in. But first of all I want to start off by saying that these guys were professional and reliable from the beginning. I had made several calls for quotes and it was easy to tell the large companies from the small ones. So it was obvious Workhorse Movers was one of the smaller ones. But that didn't mean they were small on service or customer service. Every call was returned, ever call was answered and they were where they said they would be from providing an estimate to the day of the move. Ronnie was totally open to coming out to provide an estimate and made himself readily available to do so but my schedule just would not permit. So we did forgo that which was probably a bad idea in hindsight. The good thing though is that I did order 4 movers vs. 3 or 2 so that was good. I think that if we had obtained the estimate he would have known that 2 trucks would be needed. Because a 2nd trip had to be made. But the overall price was affordable and similar in pricing to a few other comparable companies. What I learned about the company on moving day. The owners are a set of twins and their work ethic and energy is the same. I don't know how they do/did it. But these guys worked like amplifiers alllll day on my move with the same energy at the end that they had when they arrived. I was moving slowly by the end but they were still walking and moving very fast until they left. And fast didn't mean sloppy either. I'm happy to report that I have gone through most of my boxes and have not found 1 broken item. Everything was wrapped professionally and disassembled and reassembled at my new home. They set-up everything - put all of the boxes in the right rooms and even helped with the arrangement of my furniture. The only thing they didn't do was unpack for me. (The nerve of them!) :-) Now, this is an honest review that you can trust. So, I am deducting these guys 1 star because although the 2 owners were AMAZING!!!! The 2 guys they brought with them did not measure up and needed alot of hand holding and guidance. I think that if they had 2 more guys equivalent in experience/energy that would have made a big difference. It wasn't that big of a deal. I just wanted to mention why I didn't give them 5 stars. The time it took to get me moved was really long and again the reason was those 2 guys. In the company's defense, they were a discerning pair and they knew this was a problem without my having to say anything. When we sat down at the end to take care of payment they did not charge me for 4 guys the last part of the move because those guys were basically AWOL. I learned that Workhorse Movers is comprised of Ronnie and Johnny and Ronnie has been working in this industry for a while and has recently branched out on his own. They are getting off to a good start. Give them a chance. I don't think you will be disappointed. And if you are I'm certain they will work to fix it! I saw evidence of that first hand! I'm almost done...I've got to mention this. Sears called and I missed the delivery of my refrigerator so I asked these guys to detour to Sears to pick up my refrigerator and they did! Strapped it into the truck, brought it into the house and helped me set it up. Really? Who does that? Of course I had to pay for the additional time but at least I was not without a refrigerator all weekend. That alone makes Workhorse Movers a company I will always call first when I am preparing to move. Hope they will be around for many years to come. Good Luck with your business guys! I hope this review helps! Happy Moving! read more

Use this business for your next move! A friend of mine told me about this business and I'm so happy to have used them. Johnny and Ronnie are courteous and professional. No time wasted as they begin to carefully wrap, protect and load items. My furniture arrived at my new place without a scratch or dent, and this was up two flights of stairs! Competive pricing, more affordable then the bigger guys, these small business owners are big on customer service. To top it off, they are super nice guys. read more

Workhorse movers was excellent. They were affordable, reliable, and trustworthy! I moved things from 3 different locations and they helped plan and implement a smooth, trouble free move. The move was from Escondido, Poway, and rancho Bernardo and it was still more affordable to use workhorse movers than any local, overpriced companies. A definite thumbs up!! Betsy read more

Highly highly recommend. Another moving company canceled on us last minute, we desperately needed a moving company and called Workhorse. Ronnie took us last minute. Their work is 2nd to none. They wrapped everything, put items back together again, and still got the job done quickly and efficiently. No need for the fancy nationally recognized movers; Workhorse is all you need. Don't choose anyone else, seriously. read more

These guys rock! When researching moving companies to move my family of 4 to a new house I got quotes from several companies. Two guys and a truck wanted anywhere from $1200-$1800 to move us and charged extra because it was on a Sunday. Starving students wanted anywhere from $1000-$1500 and on and on it went... I called workhorse based on the yelp reviews and found their hourly rates much more affordable then any of the other guys plus they didn't have any hidden fees. The day of the move arrived and The guys showed up on time and ready to work. They even brought an extra guy that they were training for free so I had 4 guys moving my stuff! Every piece of furniture got a furniture pad and wrapped with shrink wrap to protect it. They took way more care with my stuff then I would have and its my stuff! They loaded a 4 bedroom house, drove to the new house (only 2 miles away), unloaded it and put everything in place in 5 hours! I had bought sandwiches for the crew on our way to the new house and I couldn't even get them to stop working to eat! They took the sandwiches with them when the job was done. They even helped me hang my 55 inch flat screen over the fire place. When all the dust had settled my total bill for the move was less then half what I was quoted with the other companies. Throw in a fat tip for the guys and I was still at half what I would have spent elsewhere. These guys will be moving my mom in a few months and any other friends that need movers in socal as long as they ask my opinion about who they should use! Thanks guys! If and when I move again, you will be my first call! read more

One of the BEST moving companies out there! My family's move to another state was happening the day after Thanksgiving. I called Ronnie the Sunday before Thanksgiving and he answered the phone immediately. Over the phone we were able to discuss what we needed help with (packing and loading the moving truck) and he was able to give me a VERY reasonable quote. On moving day, Johnny and his team (3 guys in all) showed up promptly at 9am. They worked non-stop and had such care and consideration for my family's possessions. This company has dedicated customer service, professional moving teams, and extremely positive and patient attitudes!!!! My family was so impressed with the work they did and we are incredibly grateful that during this tough transition we had a company who was reliable, friendly, and easy to work with. If you are thinking about moving I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND hiring the Workhorse Movers team. read more

Let me start this review by saying that these gentlemen's are very professional, efficient and personable. From the beginning to the end of my move, everything was great and smooth. They have effective communication, and answered all of the questions I had thoroughly in a timely manner. All of my furniture and personal belongings were intact and no scratch was noted on anything. Everything was wrapped and secured appropriately on the truck during the loading and unloading process, and Ronnie took the time to place everything in the appropriate rooms in the apartment. He even took his time disassembling and assembling our furniture (A+++). It is very evident that they have a true passion in providing excellent customer service, and ensuring their customers are satisfied prior to receiving payment. I would definitely recommend this moving company! THANK YOU RONNIE FOR HAVING AN AWESOME PERSONALITY AND MAKING OUR TRANSITION TO OUR NEW HOME AN EASY ONE! =) read more
