Chris Moves

These guys were great called ahead of time before arrival and didn’t leave until the job was completely finished!!! Hands down one of the best moving companies i’ve ever hired. I would definantly rehire them.

Great professional moving company. They’re punctual and they handle all of your belongings with care. His crew is awesome efficient and fast, they don’t waste any time. I would most definitely recommend them to anyone.

I booked Chris Moves several days in advance to move my packed belongings from one house to another. I would provide the truck and he would be there at 8 o’clock in the morning. I texted Chris at 6:45 on the morning of the move to let him know the truck would not be available until 8:30 according to an email I received from U-​Haul and asked if he could be there at 9:30 instead of 8 o’clock. I did not hear from him until 8:50 when he told me sorry, he overslept and that 9:30 should be fine. I explained to him that since I did not hear from him I had to arrange other help. he did not know anything about the request to change times and he was supposed to be there at 8 o’clock but did not wake up till 8:50 the morning of this major move. When I sent him the text explaining this to him– again no response or apology. Finding a crew to help you move a three bedroom home at the very last minute is not easy and I was scrambling. Family members who lived two hours away drove in to help on a Sunday. Poor communication and irresponsibility. Thumbs down to this business.

As a military family we have moved alot! Worked with alot of movers… Chris Moves is the BEST LOCAL mover. We’ve ever done buisness with. His team was on time, clean, courteous and fast. They took every care with my belongings, wrapped, padded etc. Great price also!

Chris and his team were diligent, hard working and very professional… Referred to us by Family we couldn’t be happier with their efforts… One particular instance that gave me all the confidence in the world that Chris and his team was treating our Family’s possession with the same care they would their own was when Chris came around the corner with our household printer in hand saying that it had fallen and that if it was broken he would pay for it… THAT is integrity and I knew we had a winner on our hands. Thanks, Chris. BTW,… the printer works fine. Thank you again. You made one of the most stressful experiences a family can endure super easy…

We just moved within town, but Chris and his team delivered. They showed up on time, and worked HARD. They were super careful with my stuff, and diligently wrapped up furniture and glass with blankets and cellophane. They even moved my ancient piano that weighed a ton. They were courteous and professional and I’ve never seen a truck packed so well before.

Great moving company with friendly staff! Price is very reasonable and they can schedule with short notice. I recommend them over all other movers I’ve used.

Like some other reviewers, I found Chris Moves on Craigslist. He was available on a somewhat short notice (about 5 days lead time). I appreciated that he called ahead to give a heads up that he was going to a run late because of traffic. He and two men came to unload two pods and were pretty efficient with completing the work in about an hour and a half. No broken dishes or objects! I needed a receipt and Chris was able to send an invoice via email.

I always count on my Unilocal community to search out people or places I need to try and to hire. No exception here! I messaged Chris on Unilocal and he got right back to me! He had the day open! We talked about the from here to the to there part then the type of things I had to move. A time was set– he arrived with 2 helpers and it was on! This is the first time I’ve moved where NOTHING was damaged! His team is friendly, hard working and got the job done! I’m never moving again… B u t… if I do– I’m calling Chris! Thank you!!! YAY! … Now to find someone to unpack and organize my things in their new home…

Chris Moves was AMAZING! I was stressed thinking moving day was going to be a total nightmare, thanks to the efficiency and expertise of Chris and his team my 2-​location move (office and new home) was smooth and easy.
Chris was a complete pro at stacking and organizing my stuff that got stored, and it was a loooong day but they did not slow down. Well worth the cost, very nice people and I highly recommend Chris Moves.

We found Chris on Craigslist to move from Concord to Oakland. First and foremost, he was great with communication. He let us know how far out he was and when he expected to arrive. We have had other movers and they are always late and never call to tell us that, it was very nice to know exactly where he was so we didn’t feel we had to sit around and wait, or not be able to leave the house. Moving is stressful so waiting around just makes it worse, he alleviated that stress.
First and foremost, Chris was very professional, introduced himself and his crew. He really made us trust him. He also had a full set of tools with him for anything unexpected which was great because I had packed most of mine. He also did not charge us a ton of money for not being local, many other movers advertise that they work in your area but want you to pay them extra, often a lot, to come to your area because they are not close to being local.
He and his crew worked quickly and efficiently. Unlike some other movers, he didn’t need us to help at all, we told him where we wanted things and he listened, etc. No micromanaging him, no need to make sure things were being treated well, it was actually fairly relaxing and hands off.
I was very happy we used him. I thought it was more than worth the money he charged. He was also just a very nice, very professional, very communicative person who takes this very seriously. I couldn’t be happier.
Some basic things that I expect but don’t always happen… My fridge couldn’t fit through the front door. We had to go through the parking garage which was likely a quarter mile walk or more. Chris didn’t complain or try to make excuses, he just did what he needed to do and joked about the situation. His crew did not slack off, lack manners, or scuff things up when he wasn’t present, sounds simple but it’s often not the case, his crew worked as hard as him and were as professional of him. Lastly, I had large planters that had some leaves fall when moved. They actually cleaned that up, something many would skip or consider it my responsibility. Those details mean a lot to me.

Our family has used Chris Moves several time over the last 5 years. They are a FULL SERVICE company. Chris and his staff are everything you want in movers, Hardworking, Considerate of our belongings, Organized, Reliable, Honest and Affordable. No matter what the job Chris is always extremely accommodating and fair with his pricing. Chris and his staff are friendly and extremely kind people. When my father was dying and we had to move furniture to make room for a hospital bed Chris came and helped us and refused any money. That should tell you a lot about the caliber of his character. Once you hire Chris you will hire him again and again. Chris Moves is simply the best!

Left me stranded 30 minutes from my house. Confirmed appointment same day and no showed with no phone call. Would definitely not recommend.

One word: A-​W-​E-​S-​O-​M-​E!
Chris and his crew *literally* saved the day! We were able to contract him with very little notice. They arrived right on time, strategized and got to work! Very professional and courteous throughout the move! Just great service – hands down recommend him!!!

I cannot say enough about the professionalism, efficiency and reliability of Chris Moves. Chris and his staff are hard working, careful with belongings, respectful and a pleasure to work with. My husband and I hired Chris Moves for a local move that required him to drive ½ mile up a mountain on very tricky roads, a spiral staircase they had to move a bedroom set down. No request fazed Chris. When we unexpectedly moved again, 6 months later, we hired Chris Moves without any hesitation. This kind of honesty, professionalism and reliability are unheard of in the moving industry. Chris is knowledgeable and personable. He has the great rates and completes the work quickly while still caring for your belongings. I would not use another mover. Thank you Chris and team for making both of these moves go so smoothly.

I own a moving and delivery company in Tucson, Arizona and do a lot of out of state runs. I hire only 5 star Unilocal companies to unload me at the destination to ensure my reputation remains golden.
I just moved a doctor to Woodland CA and hired Chris Moves out of Woodland. I called because he had great reviews. Once on the phone with Chis I knew I was in good hands, he is easy to schedule with and his rates were very fair.
When I pulled in to town I called to confirm our next morning appointment and Chris was on top of it.
Chris and crew arrived on time, were clean cut, friendly and had all the equipment and tools to unload place and assemble all the furniture. My client absolutely loved these guys and asked me to get his card as they had pods coming from two different states. They wanted Chris Jones to unload, place and assemble those shipments after having seen thier work ethic.
With that said, do yourself a favor and let Chris Jones at Chris Moves facilitate your next move.
Thanks Chris you guys were great!

The crew showed up on time and were helpful in guiding my moving truck up a difficult driveway. Unloading went smoothly and the men were careful with the belongings.
Besides two professional movers, the owner was on site doing some light moving himself and providing direction to his crew. There was no additional charge for this.
I am happy overall and will call Chris Moves next time I need their help.

i recently moved from Utah to California. Chris and his crew were hired by my moving company in Utah to unload when my items arrived in California.
They were awesome, worked quickly and without complaint. (I have crazy stairs and heavy stuff!) just really nice.
I would use them again.

Chris and his crew, Modesto and Jacob did a really good job in assisting us with our recent move on a short notice. My husband and I are very much satisfied with their excellent service. Rates are reasonable, they’re very careful in handling our furniture, organized and very professional. I highly recommend using them on your next move. Call them ahead of time as he gets booked easy. Chris, Modesto and Jacob you guys are an awesome team!

We recently had Chris move us on fairly short notice. Even though he had a moving job earlier in the day, he was really accommodating in scheduling us that day. Now that I have been through all of our boxes and seen all furniture that was moved, I can report that nothing was broken! Chris and his partner worked hard through the move as well.
