Austin and Alex were prompt, polite, efficient, helpfulâŠand professional! They moved everything we asked and were very friendly. I give them 5 ??????????!! Highly recommend their services!
These guys worked! They communicated about arrival time and showed up on time. They worked very hard, helped make sure our stuff was protected and worked tirelessly to get things moved quickly. They had packing know how and maximized what went into our storage unit. Would definitely use them again.
Vlad and Akay from A2B Movers were fabulous! They were on time, organized, careful, efficient, and dealt easily with a rolling rack whose wheel broke off. I would use them again in a heartbeat!
I had a great experience. I was unsure how it would go but I was put at ease with great understanding and service. I would recommend Lewis Moving Company for anyone planning a move. Great Job Guys!!
Took the two gentlemen two hours exactly to pack up my moving truck with around 30 boxes and a dozenish pieces of furniture. Very polite and came prepared with some extra packing items (Budget didnât have the moving blankets I ordered). Five stars
Angel and Matt , You guys were Awesome!! You were Timely, Efficient, Prepared, and Respectful. You will be my go to for my next move and will highly recommend. Thank you, with appreciation.
They showed up on time and got the job done. They worked hard and were efficient in packing my POD container. I'd use them again without a second thought.
Easy service, friendly staff, good communication, reasonable prices, no hidden fees. Arrived right on time and skilled, experienced, professional staff. I was very happy with my service and movers! Would use again 100%
Great communication and the team worked super hard and finished early! Overall, it was a good experience. The team had a bit less experience with packing, e.g. using dish packs, glass packs, bubble wrap sheets, etc. than I'd expected and a few walls/pieces of furniture got dinged in the process but they were accommodating and responsive... overall, I'd definitely hire them again.
There was an issue with a piece of furniture that both HireAHelper and MovingZoom contacted me to resolve the issue, which I greatly appreciate. Their concern was genuine and their response immediate.
Austin and Bob were terrific! They were so courteous, efficient and really knew how to pack a POD! Will definitely recommend your services in the future.
They really know their stuff. My cherished belongings were packed and loaded with care. They are easy to work with,. They are great communicators. I give them an A+

Real Advice from Palo Alto Movers
"When moving into or out of Palo Alto, check with the City Hall regarding parking permits for moving trucks or PODS to avoid fines, especially in areas with restricted parking. For truck rentals, U-Haul on El Camino Real and Budget Truck Rental on the same street are reliable sources with a good selection of trucks; booking in advance is recommended. When driving a large rental truck, itâs advisable to use major roads like Alma Street or Middlefield Road instead of busy streets like University Avenue."
