San Diego Mover Reviews
First experience with movers. But now will call movers every single time. Guys did an awesome job !!
On time, organized, careful. Great service!
Andrew and his assistant were the needy best. They were prompt and worked very hard from beginning to end. Anyone who has the opportunity to use these movers should jump at the chance. Thanks guys!
They were amazing. They showed up on time, and were very professional, courteous, and handled my belongings with great care.
Fantastic
Excellent communication and the friendliest of people. They were GO GO GO since they got here and got the job done perfectly. 10/10 highly recommended!!
We had a wonderful group of hard workers help us move, and we could not have been happier with their service. I would recommend JFK movers to anyone looking for a reliable service and excellent workmanship!
Heath and Jorge were prompt, hard workers and followed specific instructions in the loading. They were courteous and professional. Great job. Very helpful with my move.
Arrived on time and were loading the trunk within minutes. All items treated with care.
Perfect. Nice guys, very quick, effient and neat. Gr e ar job. I woukd ypu again without heditation.
They were on time. They worked very hard and were quick. (tip based on how hard they worked). They took care of the furniture......were done in about 2 hr 45 min. However, I was not please with the attitude of the one in charge. He kept telling me he knew what he was doing as he has been in business for 14 years....I tried to have him make some adjustments in how he was stacking the furniture. We had taken drawers out of the heavy furniture to make it easier, he did not give me a chance to fill the drawers back up. He wanted to put the tool box in first and did not like that I said no. He turned my secretary upside down on top of a desk restricting using that space for boxes. I feel he is a good thoughtful worker, but as this was the 5th pod I had on this move, and I loaded each one, that I know my stuff as to what fit. We hired helpers this time as we can no longer move heavy furniture. He would not place barriers(cardboard, or wood) between sections as again he said he has been doing this for 14 years.....We had to pay someone else to make adjustments to the Pod. Had no time to redo the whole pod....As the other 4 pod that we have had in last few months....there was never any movement or any breakage...I am not sure about this move...The gentleman in charge needs to realize that we as the owners of the belongings may have some important input and that we may be old but we do know what we are doing.......Again both workers were professional and worked real hard. I many not have been doing this for 14 years but I have done many moves in 52 years and never had any breakage or damage as yes I do know what I am doing.... I would use Motivated Military Movers again but I will not be put down again. I am old but not done yet....
Our movers did an amazing job. They were prompt, very professional, helpful, friendly, and fast. They worked very carefully, but quickly. They did an expert job of packing our PODS. We definitely plan to use the same crew to do the unpacking. Thank you so much, crew!
Everything went well, would recommend.
They moved everything quickly and carefully

Moving FAQs in San Diego
Real Advice from San Diego Movers
We asked local movers about what you should know about moving in San Diego. (They’re really nice!)
"Parking is tough in San Diego, so having a loading zone nearby and available will save a lot of time. Also, if you are moving into a space with an elevator, you may need to reserve it."
- A.O.N Services
"We recommend scheduling your move as far in advance as possible. The farther out you can plan your move, the greater the availability you will have in choosing a date and time that is convenient for you. Our busiest times of the year are June-September, Saturdays throughout the year, and the end of each month."

Major Neighborhoods in San Diego
San Diego has earned the nickname “America’s Finest City” due to its golden-sand beaches, mild climate, consistent recreational activities, and its many charming neighborhoods located all throughout the area. With the help of a professional mover who knows all the ins and outs of San Diego, you’ll be able to move with no surprises.
Downtown San Diego
When it comes to San Diego, Downtown is all about its convenience and accessibility to other places. You can easily walk to a game at Petco Park, or to one of the many music events at The Rady Shell. (That is, unless it's the week of Comic-Con, then anything goes!) Since there are many one-way streets, downtown can get traffic heavy and has parking issues, so it's best to book professional movers who can swiftly move you into those new high rises on Market Avenue, or the lofts on Broadway.
Pacific Beach
Pacific Beach in San Diego is your ticket to the ultimate beachside lifestyle. You want walkability? Marketplaces? Frisbees? It's all in the DNA of this beachfront haven. If you're moving in the summer, keep in mind PB can get congested; while traffic usually isn’t quite as heavy here, it still gets backed up because of its narrow streets. However, professional movers know how to get you into your Mission Boulevard beachfront condo in a matter of hours.
Hillcrest
Hillcrest, one of the most charming neighborhoods in San Diego, has a vibrant vibe for those seeking a fresh start. (And your move to Hillcrest deserves a grand entrance, just like the iconic Hillcrest sign!) Even beyond its nationally renowned parades, talk to any local and they will tell you that parking is the biggest challenge. Luckily, moving pros are used to working with virtually anything along University, Robinson, and Washington.
North Park
You'll find hip, urban living with a refreshing twist in North Park, San Diego. There are tons of great shops (check out Artelexia!), entertainment staples like the LaFayette Hotel and concerts at The Observatory, and incredible food and vibes at eateries like Park & Rec and City Tacos. It's no secret that North Park has limited parking options, but San Diego movers know exactly where to go to get in and out easily.

My 2 movers were great, on time, organized, polite and even finished the job early. I highly recommend these guys, easy process from the order to paying for the job, all on line!
Exceptional service! Superb customer care! Listened intently. Extremely thorough. Great communication skills. I would gladly work with them in a heartbeat!
Heath and Jorge were prompt, hard workers and followed specific instructions in the loading. They were courteous and professional. Great job. Very helpful with my move.
Show up on time and went to work right away. Took good care of my property as their own. Very efficient and completed the job within allotted time. I didn’t have all the moving materials but the crew helped me get everything e.g. protective blankets, tapes, shrink wraps, and glass protectors. I will use this crew again, if I ever need help with loading.
Very accommodating, my container was late for almost 1 hour so I ask them if they can grab breakfast first so that my time doesn’t start yet and they did. Very friendly and fast. I am very satisfied! Thank you again!
Excellent service. The guys were great. They knew exactly how to wrap and load my furniture into a storage POD. Very personable and customer-focused. Can't say enough good things about the team
Michael and Andy were awesome! Super fast, efficient and friendly! I don’t know how they got all our stuff in the 16 foot container but they did it! HIGHLY recommend! Thanks guys!! ????
Facemove arrived on time and we’re in constant motion helping pack and load our container. They took great care in handling our furniture and professionally packing them. They were careful not to bump walls and keep the home clean by dropping floor runners and door covers. They were in a word fantastic!
Preston and Isaiah were wonderful! They were on time, friendly, conscientious, careful with my things, and very patient (with me??). I’ve moved many times and this is the best experience I’ve ever had. I wish I was moving locally—I would invite them back to unload my Pod at my new home! Thank you Isaiah and Preston, and Speed Loaders!
This was a last minute plan to hire movers to help pack our relo-cube. Best decision ever! The crew was communicative, on time and super helpful. Andrew did a great job organizing and packing the cube. I highly recommend Sd247movers and will definitely keep them in mind for future moves!
Really amazing team of 2. The young guy knew his stuff and organized all my belongings such that they fit into one Upack box. I was impressed with his spacial skills and knowing what would fit where. I did go back into the box and installed straps that might not have been necessary but gave me piece of mind.
Nice workers, they did a great job. They were all the time helpful and they worked form the beginning to the end with enthusiasm and professional. I would recommend them for sure.
