I absolutely recommend Cali Movers. The 3 young men were kind, respectful, hard working and courteous. Arrived on time. Moved quickly and carefully (as to not damage walls etc). On the way to my new home, they also loaded a storage unit. I was amazed how well they made it all fit. These young men were up and above my expectations. Great work ethic. The pricing for the move was the best in comparison to all the other estimates, very reasonable. Cali Movers are an excellent company. Highly recommend them, would definitelyuse them again. Ask for Jr and his two great Co workers. Fantastic!!

DO NO HIRE THIS COMPANY! Terrible experience with Cali Movers, will never use again and would strongly urge to avoid their service. Erick originally seemed genuine and was eager to help boasting "we are a Long Beach company and want to help Long Beach locals" since I was moving from LB to Palos Verdes. He undercut another company in price I was considering using and so I thought why not reward that attitude with my business. We spoke about the fact I am looking for a reliable service that I can continually use as part of my regular job is to relocate soccer players in the local area. My move was a small, one bed room apartment that I had already packed about 22 boxes which just needed moving downstairs to load onto the truck. There was an additional tv stand with tv, dresser, bar cart, drawer for office stationary and 4 upright clothes boxes. No sofa or table/chairs were being moved. The movers were due to arrive at 1:30pm and even though claiming to be from Long Beach, the gentleman explained he had no idea where the cross streets Ocean Blvd and Pine Ave were. Upon finally arriving the gentleman was extremely disgruntled about the length of time this move would take, saying they only had 4 hours and that it would take much longer. He even mentioned under his breath this was a "hell job" and completely ridiculous they were starting at 1:30pm. I explained there are only a small number of boxes with no large furniture and I was willing to help carry down and assist to speed up the time. If it went over I would of course pay the additional what was owed. The elevator was located next to my unit and the truck parked right night to the elevator so everything was extremely accessible and would be rather quite quick in time I continued to express. The gentleman, named JR, continued to express how disgruntled he was and made it very clear he wanted a large cash tip and if I didn't have cash to stop off on the way. I found this rather disturbing that he was so insistent and at the same time felt like I didn't have a choice as I wanted the two movers to handle my belongings with care. I helped the two movers carry all the boxes to the truck, even gifting them some soccer apparel, large LA Galaxy jackets, backpacks and roller bags. The movers were less that careful unloading all the boxes to the new apartment, causing a number of dings on walls and doors even breaking a mirror on the bar cart. When I brought this to their attention, JR was quick to reply "it was already like that". Classic. I additionally found mor issues with a broken portion of the office drawer. The total time from the drivers showing up to unloading at the new address was 3 hours 20 mins. On noticing there was an option to tip via card, I queried JR on this to which his reply was nothing but confrontational and still demanded the cash. In hindsight, I shouldn't have tipped for their service and stood my ground. I was quick to email Erick in the office to explain and we ended up having a call. He mentioned the two movers had been suspended and that he would help me file a claim. I asked about the reimbursement of the tip, Erick mentioned he would look into it but never got back to me or responded to my emails. The check I received for the damaged good was $12. While I understand that moving is a highly strenuous and difficult job, hence my willingness to help, I still believe there is a level of etiquette and professionalism that should be shown to the customer and not an attitude of hassle. All round unpleasant experience. Please save yourself the time, money and displeasure by using a different company.

The guys did a decent job. A few things I didn't like was they used a lot wrap, which added so much time. I questioned if they needed to do that, they said yes. Plus they charged us for the wrap which I was unaware of. They quote you for 4 hours and they know darn well they will take longer. We had a lot of stuff, I told them about. It took 10 hours to do the job.
