Moving Reviews
Real Emeryville area customers. Unedited, unfiltered reviews of 5 STAR MOVING.
Kristen L
They showed up on time and Dodd an excellent job of packing my container. They were courteous and very friendly.
Paul B
Strong, careful and competent.
Janet K
Our movers were great. They were on time and very careful and conscientious. We will definitely use them again, and recommend them to others.
Meg T
Hardworking, pleasant, polite. Would happily use again.
After unloading the truck they asked if I liked the furniture layout (where I told them to put things!), because they'd move anything to a new spot if I'd like! I was very pleased by this because I didn't see it as their responsibility to move furniture pieces 2 or 3 times in an "unload" job, just expected them to get it all into the house.
They worked quickly but put everything in organized piles. Carefully read top of each box and communicated well with one another about which boxes had china, etc. Smart about what was likely to go together (matching book cases for example). Nothing damaged, nothing taken.
Only negative - arrived late and didn't have my # with them in the truck to let me know, but appropriately apologetic about that error and more than made up for in in their professionalism and hard work.
Bill L
5-STAR was great. They arrived early and worked non-stop for two hours. They were very careful with all of our items and there were no damages. Would highly recommend to anyone.
Gregory N
Lucas and his friendly team showed up as scheduled and commenced loading almost immediately. I was particularly happy with their attentiveness and care given to my boxes as they worked. And, indeed, they worked very fast and efficently the entire time.
As a bonus, they are easy to work with and understood perfectly what I wanted done. I couldn't be more pleased with the outstanding job they did. Of course, I highly recommend 5-STAR MOVING #1 REVIEWED COMPANY to anyone looking for excellent results from experienced, professional and reputable movers. These guys fit the bill to a T! And, I know for sure I will be scheduling them again for any future moving needs.
Tina K
This company was great to work with and very dependable.
I would recommend them for future jobs. :)
Lucas W
Though the crew showed up over an hour late, the office kept me advised. Crew showed up ready to work hard, and that's just what they did. Very accommodating when I had to extend the time of my move in. I very much appreciate their hard work and would use them in the future.
Caroline H
Lucas and his helper were excellent!!! They made sure to contact me beforehand and confirmed the tools they would need for the job. They called again to give me a twenty minutes out notice. The team worked efficiently and carefully.
I had a POD about a 1/3 full of boxes and needed the helpers to move the remaining furniture into the POD. They went above and beyond and repacked the boxes in the POD before moving the furniture in.
Lucas and his partner were respectful, prepared, on time, hard working, and I would most certainly use him again!

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!).
