It went well. 2 damaged items which they were totally honest about and didn't try to hide it. I appreciated that. I would totally use them again!
Description of Work: I hired them to move my things from a storage unit along with things from my house. They did a fabulous job and were very quick. I appreciated their professionalism.

The reviews are no longer valid. They are running a scam. They kept the name with two words at the end that meant nothing when ownership changed. I hired them not knowing ownership changed because I had already paid them $350 but they refused to credit the cost after the move. When I arranged the move, the man I believe to be the owner was rude from the start when I mentioned the $350 not knowing the ownership change but they still owe me $350. Owner was rude and fought with me for a long time before we set a date and time. I thought I was done with him but for nearly a week he called several times a day to confirm the move was still on and to berate me about wanting my money back, $350 at "Buy now" on Angies List. The move went smoothly because I was required to bring a man, my trustee with me. But at my house, it was a disaster. It was my moms items and I did not know what was coming to my house, I wanted to organize it into category piles. One mover recognized me and tried to be polite but the other mover kept threatening me that if it did not go quickly into the garage I would have to move it myself even tho I told him I was disabled. I scrambled and now my garage is full even tho I asked for a path thru the garage and access to my food cabinets. I cannot step into my garage and now 2 of 3 bedrooms are completely full. Do not ever use these rude scary mean people who harass customers, and rob poor peoples money, and threaten disabled people and do not listen to where items go and wont move a few pieces to make more room for items being moved in nor do they move pianos.

Response from Top Shelf Delivery and Moving
[Member Name Removed]: I am sorry that your perception of the move is different than ours. I told you from the very beginning that the vouchers you supposedly purchased were no longer valid and would not be accepted. They were one and a half years old and no longer acceptable. I contacted Angie's list and they agreed that they were no longer valid and could not find a record of them ever being purchased. We kept the same exact name of the business. We are not running a scam. We are a legit business with an active and standing PUC household goods permit. We do not work for free however, which was what you were trying to get us to do. Your trustee was the person paying for the move and he was pleased with our service. Again, I am sorry that your perception of the move was completely different than the one your trustee and I had of the move. Roy

Fantastic! The men arrived at 8 am ready to work. They did a great job loading and unloading boxes and furniture. The owner Roy work a pleasure to work with and a very reputable man. The men had all their tools needed to assemble and break down the furniture. It was great to have a friendly team to work with on a very stressful day. I highly recommend Top Shelf for any moving needs. Top Shelf gets a AAA in my book. Great Job guys!
Description of Work: Top Shelf moved my daughters belongings from her apartment and from a storage shed to her new town home across town.

We hired Top Shelf Delivery for a local move, and also needed a kitchen cabinet assembled. The crew of three guys was fantastic. They were very professional, friendly and easy to deal with. We've had movers in the past that complained about how heavy the furniture was (seriously????) but these gentlemen were so easy to deal with and helpful that they made the move better than it otherwise could have been. Shak, the owner, is very responsive and quick to respond to email or phone inquiries. I hope we never have to move again, but if we do, will definitely call them back and absolutely recommend them. A++++

The movers were o.k. But we were not happy with the management. The owner tried to charge a lot more than expected, We never ever spent this kind of outrageous money for a move. In addition, there were some things damaged, scratched, etc. we noticed some missing items as well. Either they were left at the storage or on the truck. We did not go back to him to check because we don't even want to talk to him. We would not consider hiring them again!
Description of Work: Moving from a large two story home to a small single story about 6 miles away. There was a two weeks gap between the move, so we had to store our Furnitures and boxes in storage. We could not secure 2 spaces so we had to use 2 different areas: one located 20 some miles away which we were not informed. When the second moving day came, the movers loaded the truck and got stuck on the freeway during the rush hour for a couple of extra hours. They were charging us $125 an hour for 2 men and added another man which escalated the cost even more. We protested and the owner gave us some concession.

They were on time and very nice but they broke our ceiling fan and no one has ever called me to see about helping me get it fixed or replaced. Since the cost of the job was less than the fan I suppose it wasn't really worth their time.

The three man team arrived on time. They were careful with our belongings and packaged and packed our things well. The team was very hard working and professional, yet very friendly. We appreciated their attitude as it made the move less stressful. We were not sure how long the move might take when we made the reservation. This was not a problem. We were able to keep the team until the job was completed and we paid for the extra time. We would use Top Shelf Delivery and Moving again and would recommend the company. The price was reasonable and Al worked with our schedule to get us moved on a holiday weekend.
Description of Work: Two members of the moving team moved furniture, books, clothing, and electonics out to the moving truck. A third member wrapped the items in shrink wrap and readied them to be situated in the truck. The team disassembled some pieces of furniture and reassembled items in the new house. Most of our boxes were labeled with room locations in the new house and the team placed the boxes accordingly.

I contacted Top Shelf for two reasons: they had a positive rating and they had a great coupon deal (two movers for two hours, anything additional $95 an hour). But what I ended up getting was not a great experience. The environmental conditions of that day: Raining Sporadically (not heavy at all when it did) and I do live on the 5 story apartment with an elevator and I was moving into a house. The truck was parked about 30 feet away from the closest elevator from the apartment. I know the weather conditions and the location of the truck because I was standing out there holding the doors for them the entire time. Good things that happened: Nothing appears to have broke along the way considering the weather conditions and no one got hurt. And Jose (one of the movers) was professional working with us. Not so good things: I didn't exactly pay for two movers, I paid for more like 1.5 movers. I understand that weather conditions can slow down the process, but I really question the actual time they needed to move my items. I say this because: a) one of them decided to take a 20-30 min phone call on the side and just not move anything. (ever thought about getting a handsfree device so you can work while taking a call?). And I know that the other mover was annoyed because he stared at him while he kept on moving the boxes on his behalf. b) They blamed waiting for the elevators when we had elevator doors readily waiting for them on both ends. c) When it came to boxes, they were very efficient, within the first 30 min pretty much all the boxes were done, but when it came to furniture items, everything just started slowing down dramatically. It wasn't raining hard folks and if you had the proper attire and equipment, this would have not have been that big of a problem. d) We were told that they would be arriving 30 min earlier than our appointed time when they ended up arriving 15 min late to the scheduled time. e) They were so slow that my brother had to help them move some items. The owner apologized for the experience and told me that he would make sure the experience would be better the next time. Not so sure what he meant by that as I don't often move every month (much less in the past 5 years). If your movers would have been a little more efficient and a little more experienced. This move could have been more like 3-4 hours vs 5 hours.

We got the deal on Angie's list, and these guys exceeded all of our expectations. We will be hiring them for the second part of our move without the deal. They were punctual, very courteous, and they worked their tails off. I will probably hire them for every move going forward.
