The move was done in 2 stages, as we used a lot of furniture to stage the old house for sale. It was white glove handling all the way and both moves went smoothly.

Because of my husband's job, we have been moving a lot and always had good experiences with our previous moving companies but this one has been awful and extremely stressful. Jeff Pink (the owner) came at our home for an estimate and seemed very professional. We have a big and very fragile painting and specifically asked him to NOT wrap it with any cardboard or paper. He assured us that he would never do that because his company "always" use moving pads for paintings. He also said that he was the only company that would accommodate our needs and expectations for this moving and delivery dates, and that he would be our moving coordinator from the first to the last day and would always be available for any questions or concerns that we would have, which was good because we had to rent a place in DC to wait for our delivery and needed clear answers to all our questions. We decided to trust him after we read good reviews online. Our experience has been terrible. First of all, after the contract was signed, Jeff Pink sent us an email to ask for 50% of the total amount at loading which was absolutely not what we agreed before. Usually, reliable movers do not ask you any $ before delivery. That was the first red flag. Then, we never got any news from him and had to email/text/call without getting any answer from him. We did not know how long we needed to rent a place in DC which was very stressful for our family. Once arrived in DC, we still never heard from him. After harassing him by text, he finally replied that he didn't have any control on his contractor (because they are local, they don't deliver but deal with another moving company) and that he would try to get some information to know where the truck was. This was 2 days only before the delivery day. Finally, our moving was delivered one day late which we learned the night before, so we had to sleep on old mattresses on the floor because our rental was not available anymore and the hotel night was too expensive for us. I forgot to mention that I am pregnant and that we have two young children. It was a nightmare! And of course, no phone call or apologies at all. End of the story: the truck arrived and our moving was delivered but one of our bookcase had been broken, and our painting seriously damaged because it had been wrapped with paper, so the varnish got stick against the paper. Worst of all?? We filed a claim but just got $100 for all - the last joke from Pink Transfers -. Jeff Pink NEVER called us, apologized or fixed the problem. This company might be ok for local moves but they are totally unable and unprepared for national and cross-country moves. I truly was dismayed by Jeff Pink and how unprofessional and unfriendly he has been till the end. Of course, I would never recommend this company to anyone and would just run away from them, even for local moves.
Description of Work: Our moving from Los Angeles to Washington DC. They packed all our belongings.

They have always been great. They have just been wonderful. If you just get people to help you in the house, there is a minimum charge I think of four hours.
Description of Work: One that is in California that we have used many times locally was Pink Transfer. They moved us locally. They moved my business. Sometimes, when I just have to move furniture, I call and get some people of theirs. We just used them for moving locally and in-house.

Everything was fine until it came down to the final total. They charge you very high prices for EVERY SINGLE packing supply they use.
Description of Work: With all of the extra packing fees, this was by far the most expensive mover I ever used. Never again!

Please contact us as soon as possible at 626-357-2919 or 888-746-5668. We have no record in our database of a job listed under your name or address. We are concerned that you might have used a company using a name similar to ours that we recently took legal action against. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

They were much slower than other moving companies I had used in the past - and weeks later I discovered they had broken a few items during the move without telling me (things they would have seen - the wheel of my new BBQ, for instance). My suspicion that they were trying to "use up" all the hours they had estimated appeared justified at the end of the job when they appeared highly motivated to include as many "overtime" hours as possible, despite the fact that during the move their truck broke and it took a long time to fix it (after they even asked me to jump start their massive truck, which did not work). That made the job take all day as opposed to only part of the day at much inconvenience to me. No apologies or accommodations were made - and, sure enough, they went into overtime. Also, as a small thing, I asked them to help reassemble one of the baby cribs because it had gotten so late with all the time they took that I needed help to set up the babies' room in time. They did a bad job on it, and charged me the overtime rate (paying overtime to assemble a baby's crib bc they caused me so much delay is not terribly unprofessional in and of itself, but in light of all the inconvenience and slowness, and all the ways in which I helped them throughout the day, I was hoping to see "something" that showed a little give-and-take, but no. It seemed to be only "take" with these guys). Side note: I even bought them McDonald's breakfast after they asked for it. They barely said "thank you". Nice guys personally, but not a nice way to work.
Description of Work: Moved contents of small house and garage to new house not that far away.

The move, from packing to storage to San Jose was fortunately uneventful. Pink's stayed in touch and reconfirmed dates. There were not any surprises and the staff from office to packing to moving and then unpacking were very professional.

Brandon Pink came out and gave us an estimate two weeks ago. The movers, Jerry and his crew Randy and Anthony showed up on time and did a very professional and friendly job. They crated all the glass and did an outstanding job with some very heavy custom furniture we have. They are very quick and very careful.

Fabulous, except for some b******* from one individual mover that he "can't do this, can't do that", but generally did it anyway.
Description of Work: Packing, moving fine furnature, antiques, household goods from Pasadena to Escondido, then unloading and unpacking. Same group who loaded drove to San Diego area over night, then showed up at our new home at 9AM to unload and unpack. Flawless start to finish.

These guys were the best. They arrived before I did and finished up after I left. THEY WERE AMAZING.
Description of Work: PINK'S picked up and moved my storage unit from Los Angeles, CA to Columbus. IN. I have a lot of antiques and each piece was wrapped with such professionalism as I have never seen before. They had to hold my shipment in a warehouse until there was a truck coming east. I expected to find all of my furniture unwrapped and shoved in the long distance truck. I was very surprised to find it still wrapped and nicely placed in the new truck. NOT A SINGLE PIECE WAS DAMAGED IN ANY WAY AT ALL. I have moved a lot and used many different movers but I have never come across movers as good as these guys.

I contacted Pink's 3 days prior to a move because they were fairly well reviewed here and were local to the area I was moving to. Prior to this move, I'd done two moves with Sunshine Boys with very good (albeit a little pricey) service but they were unable to come on such short notice for this move. The owner was able to schedule an afternoon move for me after sliding another move the same day around. The two movers were scheduled to arrive between 12-1pm, they arrived at my apartment at 12:15. They immediately started working and had loaded my entire apartment into their truck in just under two hours, which was pretty impressive. Sunshine Boys had damaged two of my cheap Ikea furniture items in the previous moves and they were barely holding together at this move. One of the movers refastened the supports that Sunshine Boys had broken using some screws I had been using to hold up pictures. The two movers were friendly and efficient the entire loading process, tossing jokes around and never once complaining. We drove to my new house about 15 miles away and they began unloading the truck immediately. The unload was done in about 90 minutes. The movers were very careful with my items and caused zero damage to the furniture -- the only problem was that one of them had put his hand on a greased hinge or something before grabbing a bookcase so he left a black handprint on it, which was no big deal. The movers sometimes consulted me about where I wanted furniture placed if there was ambiguity, but for the most part, just put things down where they thought they would make sense. It was kind of funny because my wife and I had painstakingly mapped out where furniture was supposed to go, then the movers automatically knew where they should go since I guess everyone lays out their houses the same way. When our baby's crib wouldn't fit through a doorway, one of the movers offered to remove the door to the room instead of having me disassemble the crib to make it fit. He did so, but it was still too tight, so I had to disassemble the crib anyway. He rehung the door after moving the partially disassembled crib in the room. All in all it was a really nice experience. While we were squaring away the paperwork at the end, my new neighbor came out and was surprised to see a Pink's truck in front of our house as she had used them a couple years prior for her move. She had nothing but good things to say about the company too. A couple things that I wish were clarified in the beginning: 1) There is a 3 hr minimum 2) They start the "meter" from when they leave their lot in Monrovia and end it when they get back there. This will add at least 15 minutes each way (and probably more like 30) to a move that's super local and can add up to be a lot more if you live further away. This was kind of a rude surprise since Sunshine Boys start the clock when they start work, then charge double driving distance between move sites, then end when they finish work. This makes it appealing to use them for very short distance moves and you can be anywhere in their service area while Pink's makes sense if your two properties are close to Monrovia.
Description of Work: Moved a pre-packed 1 bedroom apartment with ~30 boxes on 2nd floor via stairs to a 4 bedroom 1 story house ~15 miles away.

We did our own packing and took apart the beds and everything else. They just moved all the boxes and the furniture. I don't recall the cost. It went pretty easily. They showed up on time. It took them half a day if I remember correctly. I don't think anything was broken or lost. They were on time and they were responsive.
Description of Work: Pink Transfer moved us a block and a half.
