If you’re reading this, stop here and just book with 5 Star Moving.
Sean and Danny were an exceptional crew that helped us pack our 16’ POD. I was personally nervous that all of our stuff wasn't going to fit in the container, but they were confident it was going to work out. And work out it did; so well, that there were even a couple of feet to spare in the container for extra “chowder”. They wrapped all of our furniture and large, awkwardly-shaped items with all the material we provided with utmost care, but just as much speed and efficiency.
To top it off, they had the best attitude and professionalism. They also liked to interact with us while keeping the workflow going.
Just a great experience overall.
Also, a thank you to the owner Lucas for coordinating the job and being very communicative with requirements leading up to POD packing day. I wish I could be more vernacular here, but I’ll keep it PG for the sake of other users: You guys are the bee’s knees.
Thank you!

We couldn't be more happy with our movers! They called in advance to let us know their exact arrival time, they showed up prepared to work, and worked incredibly hard the entire time. They were friendly, respectful of our belongings, and most impressively, they were experts at fitting all of our furniture, boxes, and bins into the POD we had rented. We were impressed with them from start to finish and would recommend them 100%!

Two young men showed up, they were very polite and knew exactly what they were doing. They had my large POD completely full and secure in under 2hrs!! Thank you Louis and Arturo

Get To Know Us
What can a customer expect after booking with you?
After booking, you will receive an email that provides the phone number for 5-Star Moving. We do our very best to call clients within 48 hours. However, during the busy season sometimes it’s best to contact us if you want to go over your move details!
What can a customer expect on moving day if they hire you?
The movers will always call the day of your move if we are running at all behind, if you don’t hear from us this is usually a good sign, it means we are on track so try not to stress!
How should a customer prepare for moving day?
Having items well boxes is the #1 time saver and a sure way to keep your bill as low as possible. If you have 1 container, expect the move to take 2 to 3 hours. If you have 2 containers expect the move to take 4 to 6 hours. Remember - lamps, lamp shades, and small items should be boxed if you want them to arrive safely to your destination. Small items in general can increase the move time by double so having all these items in boxes really does help. Buy plastic wrap, straps and blankets for us.
What types of moves have you handled?
We on an average load of 60+ containers/month. Meaning our movers are extremely versed in the art of PODS loading. We also do truck work and have been in the moving industry for over 10 years. Some of our veteran loaders have been in the industry for 20+ years. Whoever shows up, rest assured you’re in good hands.
What's your favorite part about being a mover?
Our favorite part of being a mover is the satisfaction of a job done right. We see every day poorly loaded rental trucks and POD containers, we also see the frustration from those clients who have poor experiences. We love when the client is watching with his/her eyes wide open while we wrap their valued belongings.
What training do you provide your crew members?
All of our team members are carefully trained. They all know and understand the price of furniture and the value. Because of this, they take extra caution when loading your items. They also expect to have the right materials to do their job properly, this is why it’s important for you, the client, to always have the 3 essentials - plastic wrap, blankets and ratchet straps (NOT ROPE!).
