Excellent Movers Profile Image

On time and very, very efficient. These guys knew exactly what they were doing. Packing a pod is not easy. And I had bad experiences in the past. Without hesitation these guys packed an impossibly large load, and they did it quickly! Well worth every penny!!! It almost made the move feel good.

I am so grateful for SoCal Movers! The guys showed up 5 minutes early, worked hard and fast, and made me feel so much more at ease about the move. They carried some really heavy pieces up several flights of stairs and still managed to get everything done in time. I couldn't recommend them more, thank you so much!!
