Excellent and Professional! The process of selling and buying a home is a lot of moving parts and stress. After going through a handful of mover ads we chose Chris Moving Men. Chris went over our options, and we chose to pack our stuff since the house had so much clutter and hiring him to come in and move our stuff. They worked with us every step of the way. The movers are very hard working and dedicated. They were friendly and made the move easier on us. We highly recommend Chris Moving Men!

Couldn't stand the driver bill, the mover seems like he was on crack, and this gang banger bald guys could finished the job and they demand tips before they start the job. I dont believe this company does background checks. So if you a family person I wouldn't hired this guys.

After living in the same location for almost thirty-five years I decided to leave CA to spend my retirement in the state of NV. Over the span of time living in a single location, a three-level townhouse, I had acquired a great many possessions, many of them valuable. My biggest worry was finding a reputable moving company that would pack, transport and unload my furniture and household goods with the least amount of damage or loss. Angie’s List provided a good start in my search for the right moving company, but the final decision came down to a gut feeling from the choices presented on Angie’s List. I chose to go with Chris’ Moving Men in part based on price and location in relation to where I lived, but mainly on a good feeling I received based upon several conversations I had with Chris, the owner. Chris called me several times during the process to clarify the scope of the project. He also personally visited my home to see for himself the requirements of the job and the reasons for some of my concerns over how the job would need to be performed. As for overall performance by Chris’ Moving Men, I have nothing but but praise for the results in every category. All personnel were extremely cordial. They carefully packed all of my possessions. My furniture was well padded and wrapped to avoid any damage during moving and transport. Packing took place over the span of two days with loading on board the moving van taking place on the third day. All tasks were performed on schedule with no delays. With one day devoted to travel time, my goods arrived and were unloaded at the destination on the fifth day. I am just as pleased as can be with the overall results. Everything arrived totally undamaged. I am truly overjoyed. My thanks go out to Chris. Special kudos go out to Ron who was involved in all aspects of the project from packing, loading, driving the truck, to the final unloading at the destination. Very special kudos and my profound gratitude goes out to Bill who managed and worked the moving project from beginning to end. The overall success of the project is largely due to his diligence and hard work.

Chris and his team are the best movers I've ever dealt with. We found out about them because they moved out the seller of the house we bought and we saw them work when we were visiting the house before we bought it. They impressed us to the point that we hired them to help us. We ended up having a problem with the house we were moving into that caused us to have to rearrange our plans 2 days before the scheduled move. Chris took a lot of time to walk us through our options and worked something out to make it easiest on us. He was extremely personable and professional. The same goes for the teams who helped us with both the move-out and the move-in (between the two teams, we worked with 6 different movers from the company). Each of the guys on the teams was really friendly and was very careful with our stuff. I can't stress enough how great it was to have guys that we trusted right away and who made the whole thing fun because they were so enjoyable to work with. To top it all off, Chris was incredibly upstanding and stuck to his estimate even though we ended up going over it. In fact, they did such a good job, I voluntarily paid more to the company than what Chris said was due (I felt they deserved more than their estimate). Never thought I'd do something like that but that's how good these guys were. Honestly, the best movers I could possibly imagine.

A little longer than expected, but all things were moved professionally with no issues. The 4 man crew of Danny, Gabe, Robert & Francisco were professional, quick and pleasant to work with. Apparently there was a last minute change and the 2nd truck was smaller than planned and therefore required a 2nd trip. Since the move wasn't too far there was a delay but it wasn't horrible. The Man-Hours did over the written estimate, but I was not charged any extra which pleased me greatly.

Outstanding. They came in under-budget due to faster-then-expected move-in second day of two day move. All furniture assembly and disassembly done fast and accurately. Patient with requests for relocation and occasional indecision on our part. Very good-natured and at same time professional group. Team leaders would ensure standard and good practices.

They did a great job of carefully moving all of our stuff. Everything arrived in tact, and the movers were very helpful and professional. They arrived on time and worked for approximately 3.5 hours. Before hiring them, I called three other places from Angie's List; this was the cheapest option. In case you don't know (which I didn't beforehand) it is nice to tip the movers.

We had a very good experience with them. I thought the quality was very good. He was right on time. They did a very good job. He was very courteous and very kind. He gave us all the details about the move that we needed and it was quite good. The workers were very professional. They took their time and take care for our things and they handled them very well and everything came out very, very well. We were very pleased. It was very clean. They swept up and mopped up the area and they made it very presentable. We were also very pleased with that.

Guy left stating he is not gonna do this{}#%^*+
Description of Work: People on the phone did their job. However it ended at that. Their contractor showed up earlier then scheduled and before I was there. Gave hard time to my wife and began complaining that he was not happy with what he saw. Said he needs to know how many boxes and wanted to get inside the house to see what was to be moved. She let him in. Then he claimed he needed more men for the job. The job was 18!feet worth of furniture and mattresses. We left mirrors and dressers behind. Hardly any boxes and one fridge to be moved 2 miles from one level house to a two level house. Only mattresses were going upstairs. I had two more people in addition to these two guys and plus myself. My wife called me in distress stating she was not sure what was happening and what was wrong. I arrived and found them in their truck having a cigarette and on the phone with the dispatch claiming "these people are not even ready." That is before their scheduled time and not to mention what they had to move was free and clear to be moved. I even provided MY cargo blankets and shrink wrap. I asked him if he is here to work or to complain. Guy told his dispatcher he could see that I am a "pain in the a$$ and he is out of here." I let him know he will be getting bad reviews. Guy stated he did not care and left. U-Haul and people from our Church who scrambled and came on such a short notice to help, did the trick. Dispatch scrambled and offered the crew for the next day. Unfortunately we could not be that flexible due to the work schedules and arrangements involved.

The BEST moving company!!! I highly recommend Chris' Moving Men! Don't even waste time talking to other movers, just call this company. Seriously. The owner Chris was wonderful in figuring out the best options for our move. The costs are very reasonable, and the moving guys are wonderful - they work so hard and fast, but still handle items with care. So glad we chose Chris' Moving Men, it's not easy to find someone who you can trust to move your stuff for a reasonable price. Thank you to Chris and his guys!

From the time I called to schedule the move to the time of the actual move, Chris' Moving Men were very professional and easy to deal with. My son and I moved a lot of the smaller items the weeks prior but I needed movers for the remaining big, heavy items but didn't want to hire a "big chain" moving company so I turned to Angie's List and found Chris' Moving Men. The cost was very reasonable for the amount of items and there was no fluff added in the end. The two movers, Jerry and Gabriel, communicated their arrival and were on time and ready. They were also very nice and courteous. I wanted the items protected but not overly wrapped since I was just moving a few buildings away so Jerry sensed that and therefore had Gabriel only wrap the delicate items and just pad the others which made for a quicker move. Jerry and Gabriel made the move upstairs look easy because they worked well together coordinating the items and working very efficiently. Overall, a good experience from a reputable company; I would definitely use and recommend them!

Awesome! A fantastic local moving job for Chris' Moving Men! They showed up on time, and treated every single item of ours like it was their own. No damages of any kind, not to our property being moved or to the walls of the house. We were very happy with them, and would certainly use them again if needed. I gladly recommend them to anyone needing moving services.

I got quotes from four movers and this wasn't the cheapest or the most expensive, but it was competitive and unlike some, completely reasonable. I liked that the gentleman doing the 'not to exceed' estimate gave me tips on ways to reduce the cost, including spreading the move across two days (load up one day, deliver the next) because of the added drive time. Three guys came out to load up, and also came out to unload. Chris clearly sets high expectations for his staff because Ron, Dan and Alberto were consistently polite and aware of the need to communicate with the customer in a professional manner. The guys took good care of my stuff and demonstrated that they genuinely cared about doing a great job. These guys worked hard for four and a half hours straight with just a ten minute break the first day. The second day they moved things into the house and then helped me get things set where I wanted them. They provided the wardrobe boxes for all the odds and ends. I've moved more than twenty times in my life, and these guys were hands down the best movers I've ever worked with. Plus they actually came in under the 'not to exceed' quote, which shocked the heck out of me. I can't say enough good things about Chris' Moving Men, and Dan, Ron and Alberto in particular.

Will use them again and have already told friends about their good work.
Description of Work: We had a complicated move with 3 separate locations, stairs and an elevator. We opted for a three man crew and there was not a moment when all three were not giving 100% effort. Wrapping furniture with care and being mindful of boxes that were marked fragile. Nothing damaged and nothing lost. A real class act.

I set up appointment approximately two weeks ahead and was contacted two days before move by Chris. My mother had passed away so I had 85 years of life to distribute to several different locations. I was assigned Kikis crew. They were great.. There were several large heavy antique items that they took extreme care of..this complicated move was handled with ease by this team. I would highly recommend this company as I have used them twice now and been satisfied with both moves. The move started in Carson, went to Long Beach, Lakewood, where they off loaded and picked up several more pieces then continued to a home in Orange where they both off loaded and picked up more and ended the day at a storage unit in Orange. When they were done Kiki called me to let me know exactly how the day went and what I would owe..it was under estimate. Thank You Chris Soderberg

This was a great move. The 3 men sent to us - Ruben, Ben and Artis were great. They moved everything we needed without any damage and even came in under the estimate. They really moved with efficiency and no lag time. It was not an easy move because of the stairs involved. They were also very nice and I felt like we were lucky to have such a nice crew helping us. I would definitely use this company again and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.

This was the most stress free move that I've had in over 40 years. From my initial call for a quote, to the unloading of the last box, Chris' Moving Men Inc is a professional and dedicated company. - Chris called several times before my scheduled date to review and discuss any questions/concerns about the move. He was very thorough and offered so many useful packing tips. He even referred me to several locations to buy inexpensive packing supplies. - The crew showed up on time and were ready to go. Ron and Brandon were very courteous, experienced, and extremely hard workers. The were very quick to wrap and box my belongings and always moving speedily to the truck and back. Ron was always clear about any additional charges (i.e., packing materials, boxes) and I appreciated that so there were no surprises. Brandon took extra care with an old (cheap/inexpensive) table to which I said not to worry to much about it, but he said that he handles all my belongings as it was very expensive and I appreciated that. Bonus: They were so sweet to my dogs. - Received a follow up call from the office staff to check on my move and asked how it was going. This company was a pleasure to deal with and I highly recommend them. It's worth the money and they treat you like family.

Good pricing and accurate estimate of move time, but full coverage insurance was expensive.Took about the time estimated including extra time for packing a lot of closet items. Downside-boxes were not marked so opening each box was an experience. One problem-sleep comfort bed was not re-assembled properly and trouble getting the pressure setting to work. As of this date has not been remedied by Chris Movers or Sleep Number, though both have tried. Nothing appears to have been damaged other than that, though still unpacking boxes. Helper on the second truck was late getting to the storage locker, adding to the time it took to complete the move.
