Moving Reviews
Real Emeryville area customers. Unedited, unfiltered reviews of 5 STAR MOVING.
Jeffrey P
My helpers showed up on time and they were very neat and professional. They took extreme measures to protect furniture, walls and hardwood floors. One piece that they moved was extremely heavy and they handled it very well. I highly recommend them and would definitely use them again.
Kevin D
I used Safety First Moving to help move a couple of heavy items to the upstairs of my home. They were very courteous upon arrival and set about moving the items in a very professional way. They were very careful not to scratch or dent anything in the process, while still working quickly. I was very satisfied with the results and would use them again in a minute.

We were very happy with the service! Lucas and Nate were friendly, easy to work with, and accommodating to our needs. They worked hard and got much more done than we expected. Our lack of organization didn't faze them. We would recommend them highly.
Marcia C
Lucas Cannon and his partner were excellent and worked steadily the whole time they were here, even managing to get all the packed boxes into my one car garage with three large pieces of furniture and left room for my car. All items were carefully packed the same way I would have chosen and I had great confidence in them from first meeting. I will recommend them to anyone I know.
Jack G
Very nice guys and prompt. Did a great job moving my stuff.
Vanessa B
The two guys were great! They arrived on time and moved my items safely and quickly... even in a bit of rain. They made sure they wiped their feet to avoid dirtying the carpet. Next time I move, I'll be sure to give them a call!
Kathryn T
These two young men were what you hope for when you move, but hardly ever get. They were both hard working, experienced and polite. This was the easiest and most pleasant part of the move, and I just wish everything else had turned out as well.

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!).
