5 Star Moving

Moving days are always stressful and this was our 4^th move in the last 5 years. Needless to say, it wasn’t something we were looking forward to. However, 5 Star Moving was nothing like the movers we met before. They were calm, professional and super efficient. Philip and Marath helped us with our move. We are extremely pleased with their service. My husband has been singing their praises to all his friends since our move. In the past, we always ended up with some damage to our furniture or some breakage to our kitchen items. But not this time. There is not even a scratch on our furniture and no breakage what so ever. They ensured that all the furniture was wrapped up in moving blankets and plastic wrap. They put all the small items together in a bigger wardrobe box. Even after all the extra work they did, our move was done in exactly 3 hours. They didn’t waste even a minute. If you want a stress free move, please try them. You wont go to any other movers after that. I can guarantee this :)Thank you Philip and Marath, you guys rock.

Professional, friendly and fast!!! The name stands for itself! Highly recommend to anyone who is looking for a moving company. Definitely using their service again :)

Speedy and efficient service. The two movers came and wrapped up my TV, mattress and sofa in a matter of minutes while efficiently moving everything else out and into my new place. I will definitely be using them again!

These very enthusiastic young men were a bit disorganized from the start. They didn’t label or tag each box or article as usual for movers when tagging boxes or articles. The day of the move had a smaller than normal truck had to make two pickups left a large picture of valued art in the truck. I would give B + effort but D for efficiency and organization.

This was my first time using professional movers and I was very impressed. Mike and Sam were very available to answer my questions prior to the move and the guys who helped the day of were amazing. They showed up ready to work and finished much quicker than we had expected. 5 star was affordable and provided great service. We will be using them again and would refer friends and family.

I cannot say anything bad about these movers! Eric and Sam were incredible! They were very efficient, very careful with the furniture, and communicated very well with their plan. We were able to get everything moved very efficiently, and with nothing damaged.

Kalys and Hamzad were so incredible for my friends move. These were not even my things that were handled but I felt compelled to write a review. They were willing, careful and went above and beyond!!! Wonderful service :)

Very satisfied with this moving company. Movers Felipe and Hamzat were great and worked non-​stop without any incidents or distractions. I do have a suggestion to the owner/​manager: movers may want to ask customers if they want their items and furniture wrapped in plastic. Several of my items really didn’t need to be wrapped and found a lot of time is spent wrapping and unwrapping. I was also busy during the early part of the move, otherwise, I would’ve asked them not to wrap everything. No huge deal though. I highly recommend this team and company. Thank you.

Matt an Eric were terrific, and my move couldn’t have gone any easier! I will definitely use them again and you should too!

We used 5 Star moving to move from Glendale to Highland Park this week. They told us they would arrive between 9−10am. The day of the move they called at 8:40am to say they would arrive in 20 mins. The truck pulled up at exactly 9am. Once they arrived they quickly took inventory of the items to be moved, and started wrapping the furniture and moving everything into the truck. They were very efficient and just kept working.
We were all moved in to the new house in four hours. We found our movers to be very courteous, efficient, and hard-​working. We would highly recommend 5 Star Moving!

Moving is not pleasant and I have moved too many times over the years — but this move with 5 Star was as good as it can get. On-​time, a really good vibe, (in the sense that I felt relaxed after days of pre move stressing –and they just brough great energy) friendly and professional, fast but not sloppy, Was helpful addressing any of my questions and concerns.
I used 3 guys and although it cost more was very glad I did it to get everything done in the timeframe I wanted.
Great job. I just don’t want to think about another move just yet else I would have said I’ll use them again.

I’ve moved a ton of times, so I could probably run my own moving company at this point. I was really glad to have these guys doing the work, this time. They’ve now helped us around 3 times as we had an office, a home and an employee to move with us.
They’re careful. This is probably most important. They wrap everything and protect everything. They also pack their truck with the intention of not having the stuff move around while in transit. Not everyone does this. I’ve also had other movers show up with 5 or 6 moving blankets and leave the rest to chance. 5 Star seemed to have someone in the truck sewing up blankets on demand. They were everywhere. Also plastic wrap. There weren’t any abrasion marks on any of the furniture when we arrived, which is a big deal over long distances. Sometimes furniture can be rendered unusable, despite still being functional. Not the case, here. Everything arrived in great condition.
I can’t say they move super fast, but that is probably due to their care. Which would you rather have? As far as I am concerned, they were exactly as fast as they should be. If you’re worried about time cost, have them quote you based on project.
Additionally, if you have a fussy, Russian-​speaking father in law like I do, you are in luck. They also speak Russian.

Did what they said they would do and nothing was damaged. It was a simple move, but what more could you ask for?

I cannot even begin to tell you how pleased I am with this moving company! This was my first moving experience and was not sure what to expect. When they first arrived I thought the movers looked very young and I got a little worried. Turns out I had nothing to worry about!
Kalys & Hami were not only on time but also very professional, friendly & efficient! I moved from a townhouse with A LOT of stairs to a 1 bedroom on a 3^rd floor also with A LOT of stairs and no elevator!!!
This was a couple of weeks ago and the weather in SoCal was hot and humid! Absolutely awful, it felt like 100 degrees!
But these guys pushed through it, did an amazing job, didn’t damage any of my furniture and finished the job in a little over 4 hours (I had a lot of stuff) ! When they told me how much I owed them I was absolutely shocked, such a good deal for the work they put in and executed wonderfully! They also moved some heavy furniture down the stairs at the townhouse for my dad before heading to my apartment. Such nice, helpful guys!
I would definitely recommend this company and use them again in the future!
Thank you for a smooth first moving experience!

5 STARS FOR 5 STAR MOVING!
KALYS, PHILLIP AND HAZMAT ARE AWESOME!
They were punctual, professional and experienced. I have an extremely heavy bedroom set which they did not scratch or ding despite 27 stairs and many corners.
It was an extremely hot day to move yet they pushed through it and finished in a timely fashion. Excellent job guys!

In the end, the guys ended up being nice enough, but I overall feel completely ripped off.
I moved from a 1 bedroom apartment to another 1 bedroom apartment and it took them 8 HOURS. I’ve moved with this same amount of furniture from Las Vegas to California and it only took 2 hours to load the truck and 1 and a half to unload (also with 2 guys). I was completely floored at how slow they were and how they would not lift anything while moving out of my apartment (They put everything on dollies and dropped it down each stair!). They claimed that it took longer because there were «stairs», well there were also stairs at my previous place and that wasn’t a problem for other movers. It felt like they were drawing out the time. I also watched them take 20 minutes to wrap a bookcase in saran wrap… 20 minutes!!! They would take things to the truck and not come back to the apartment for another 10 – 15 minutes. I watched one of the guys saunter back to the apartment while looking at his phone the whole time.
They also didn’t have a large enough truck and I had to take 4 more trips back to my apartment to load up my compact car. It was a complete waste of money and the worst moving experience I’ve ever had. They turned what should have been a 1 day project into a 3 day project for me. It made my moving so much more stressful than it should have been and the worst part is that I actually paid for it to be this bad. Do not use this company. It is a scam.
I really wish I would have rented my own truck and paid friends with pizza and beers and help us move because that would have been more efficient and cheaper than these guys.
I forgot to mention, my boyfriend and I had to help them move. We brought down our own dining room table and 2 tv’s and helped load in things when we got the new place. I wouldn’t have hired a moving company if I planned on moving things myself.

We recently made a cross-​country move away from L.A. Any move is a pain but when you factor in the expense and hassle of a rental truck and the travel, but this one had the potential to be a nightmare. We have cats and a LOT of stuff. 40 boxes of books, for one thing.
The smartest thing we did was to hire help to load our things into the truck, both from the storage unit we used and from our downtown apartment.
We picked 5-​star because of their good Unilocal reviews, and I’m happy to add my own to the list. Mike was responsive to my initial email and provided information and confirmations all along the way in a friendly, straightforward manner.
We had done a pretty thorough job of packing but the 5-​star guys were masters at arranging it into the truck efficiently. By the end of the day, only about half of the rental truck was occupied. Our boxes and furniture were loaded like pieces in a 3-​dimensional jigsaw puzzle; it was amazing to watch.
To be honest, we at first considered hiring a couple of guys from the Home Depot parking lot to help us but I’m so glad we didn’t. The guys from 5-​star didn’t need anything but the slightest guidance. We said, «Here’s our stuff, and there’s the truck,» and they knew what to do. And the service wasn’t at all expensive, either.
Great job!

Moving with 5 STAR MOVING was fantastic, efficient and easy. My moving guys were Sam, Kris and Andy. They called when they were 20 minutes away, and got there right on time. Very professional, hard working and efficient moving team. Every single piece of my furniture got wrapped.
Satisfaction: High.
Would definitely use this moving company and will recommend my family, friends and colleagues.

I have never taken the time to write a review, however 5 star moving was worth my time. I can honestly say that I have had my fare share of dealing with moving companies from United Van lines to hiring local workers in front of Home Depot. I have moved so many times in my life from west coast to east coast and all over California.
In addition to all of my moving experiences this is why I would highly recommend 5 Star Moving company. I was first recommended by my storage company (Magellan Storage) in DT LA about this company. I spoke to mike over the phone, he was polite and extremely professional. He was very prompt in returning my calls and emails. I explained the amount of furniture in my storage unit and he was able to email me a contract with in the day. In comparison to 2 other moving companies he was reasonable and seemed to be the most honest.
When 5 Star arrived I was surprised to see how their conduct and appearance were professional. Not to mention how calm there energy felt as a team. What I appreciated most was how careful they handle my furniture and how their attention to detail in pointing out existing flaws or scratches on my furniture.
All in all they are truly good at what they do.
