Los Angeles Transfer and Storage

First, David Hirsh (the manager in Sun Valley) was phenomenal! He bent over backwards to help my wife and me. He worked hard to get us an EXCELLENT price on the move, then even assisted us with packing supplies and other things we would have had to spend extra on. He was kind and personable. In fact, after this experience my wife and I feel we can call David a friend.
Second, our belongings were handled with care and delivered on time. Everything was also unloaded with care and placed in our house wherever my wife or I asked them to be placed.
We HIGHLY recommend Los Angeles Transfer and Storage for storing or moving ANYTHING you need taken care of in a professional manner!

I always thought moving could be very difficult. I found out from my company that they needed to relocate me. I spoke with a few neighbors of mine and they had mentioned Los Angeles Transfer and Storage. I gave them a call and scheduled a free estimate. They came out and customized my entire moved. I just received my stuff in Georgia and very glad I chose this company. Everything happened just the way I accepted it to. Would be happy to recommend this company to friends.

My wife and I have moved 9 times over the years, always using professional moving companies.  We've always used the most common national moving companies and had good but typical experiences.  Everything about our experience from the estimate with David to the pickup and drop off with Juan and his crew was far better than any previous moving experience.
It started with David giving us a fair and reasonable estimate, not a low ball number to win the bid.  His number was not the lowest or the highest, but was the most accurate.  We've got plenty of moving experience so we think we know when an esimate for the amount of work / goods is reasonably accurate.  David nailed it.  That meant not only a fair price but the planned for the right number of guys to handle the work.
The day of the pick up not only was Juan and the crew on time, but a couple of his guys were actually early and waited.  Clearly they were ready to go.  They were experienced, knew what to do, were prepared, had more than adequate material, and had plenty of experience as working as a team.  They finished in less time than expected.
LA Transfer worked with us on the delivery date since our move was consuming one entire truck.  We needed time between pick up and delivery and they readily sorted that out with us.
Communication from David and Juan during the trransfer process was helpful to know all was proceeding as planned.  Delivery was spot on time.  The delivery to our new 6th floor apartment was a challenge for the guys but again they were prepared for the long hauls and the volume of work.  There was some initial challenge from our new building which meant the crew would have to haul 4 times further to get to elevators but Juan took it in stride.  Thankfully we were able to avoid this and correct the situation but I was impressed that Juan and the guys were ready regardless.  I've had movers in the past, big names, whine about moving a mattress up stairs so it was refreshing to have these guys - clearly very professional.
I can't say enough about Juan and crew.  These guys worked hard and nonstop.  Next move - LA Transfer again.  It's a no brainer.  Trust and professionalism are what its all about.  Cheers guys, and thank you.

My job has required me to move a lot. I have moved across the country once before and it's extremely stressful, more so than moving across town or a few states over, which I've also done. There's something disconcerting about watching your personal belongings get loaded onto a truck and hoping you receive it in the same shape you sent it.    When I met move coordinator David Hirsh, he was extremely professional and immediately put me at ease. As a single woman, it was very important to feel safe,  and not feel like you're being taken advantage of. (Sidenote: I had met with a well-known national moving company the day before, and not only was his estimate ridiculously high, but he felt it appropriate to discuss the inappropriate things he found at another woman's apartment. And believe me, I am no shrinking violet, but I was still stunned by his lack of professionalism. This was not the case with David or the men who moved my belongings!)   My estimate was beyond reasonable, especially for a "small" apartment move, which can be problematic for moving companies. David treated my move with the same respect as if I was a home owner with a family of four. On the day of the move, the men showed up on time and treated my belongings well. Everything was wrapped, better than what I would've done. I felt comfortable and at ease as they loaded up the truck. In 9 days (!!), my belongings arrived from Los Angeles to NYC -- this included the Thanksgiving holiday and a snowstorm that blanketed the country. They called me and they delivered my items to my apartment the following day. Again, the men were professional and unloaded everything, despite a three-story walk-up, with care.    I couldn't be more pleased with the service I received. One thing that David told me early in our discussion stood out for me throughout the entire process. He said, "Sometimes, you can't prevent problems but it's how you deal with it that makes a difference." This is the key to quality customer service. I knew that no matter what happened, I would be able to reach him, discuss it and resolve it. Luckily, there were no problems. If I ever move again, I will be calling David.  .

Los Angeles Transfer and Storage did a great job on my move from California to New York. Jennifer gave me the right price and guaranteed my belongings when it was needed. She was available anytime I had any questions and followed up with me throughout my move. I had four estimates prior to booking these guys and all the other companies gave me ridiculous prices. The staff was very professional and fast pace. I was very satisfied with my move and want to thank you guys for the wonderful work.

I was very hesitant when the movers arrived because I heard a lot of horror stories from friends about the moving experience with other companies.  Although I felt a little confident because it was a referral from a friend, in the back of mind I was still worried.  They came in the morning exactly on time.  I spoke with them and expressed what I wanted moved and how and they were very responsive.  As they started loading I went to the room to box some personal things.  When I want back to the living room the couches, coffee tables, side table, entertainment center and TV were already professionally packaged and ready to load.  I was amazed how quickly and professional they were.  Moreover, they took apart my bed which was very complicated with lots of screws and bolts.  They worked very fast loading a huge truck full of boxes.  When we arrived at the destination they loaded everything quickly listening to where I wanted everything placed.   They also successfully assembled my complicated bed.  I was so pleased I can't explain   If you are moving I highly recommend them.  Do yourself a favor during the stressful time and onuh get the to do your moving. .

I have been dealing with Los Angeles Transfer and Storage for almost 2 years.  They have been very helpful even when I changed my mind several times.  They made a pick up and I was able to utilize their storage.  They even sent an email when I needed it for business purposes.  I really appreciate their personalized customer service when I call.   I have a personal go to representative, David.  If I call and he unavailable he will respond to my message and give me a return call. This move was longer than anticipated but I was still treated with dignity and true customer service.   I would recommend this moving company because from the very beginning I had a very good experience with my moving process.   LaVera M.

I lived in Burbank for about two years, and I've learned to love it, but I currently have a more solitary lifestyle as my roommate and I wanted to split up.
LA Transfer and Storage were critical to my move and were able to help me relocate in just a week. I was able to store my valuables with them while I made so last minute adjustments with banking and other personal accounts.
I highly recommend their services for anyone, especially if you're only moving from city to city.

I wanted to write a review about my experience with LA transfer. From the beginning to the end the service was great there were no questions unanswered and the crew that came to my home was very helpful. I can honestly recommend this moving company to anyone and I'm glad that I chose them for their service. My delivery was a smooth process we received our items in beautiful condition and thanked the delivery guys with a hard earned tip and a pizza. Thank you LA transfer and happy new year.

I hired them for two short moves as I just got married and we lived in two different apartments. One move was from Studio City to Valley Village and the other was from Encino. We did it over two days. They were prompt for both moves and actually did the moves in about the exact time that I estimated based on previous moves. The foreman of the three man crew was excellent and moved very quickly. Even with a very long haul from the loading dock to my apartment, the move went quickly. I would recommend them for this type of short move.

Very competitive rate. They called prior the schedule date to confirm the time and they arrived at the time scheduled. The person in charge took the time to go over all the paperwork and answered any question I had. He provided a contact number as well. Their movers were careful, fast and organized. Everything was done well within the expected time. My move was out of state and when I was called them with my new address. They arrived on time and unloaded my stuff in a record time.Overall, Los Angeles Transfer has: very competitive rate, professional movers and excellent customer service that work at making sure that everything goes smoothly.Thank you.

This company really lives up to their word. I did an online search and saw what people had to go thru and how other companies charged them extra money. I was a bit hesitant since it was my first time moving and decided to book them based on the great words others had to say about them. I had an original quote and it was a hundred dollars more than another company I saw (keep in mind I got 4 quotes). I was planning on booking the other company but after reading the reviews people had to say about the other company I decided to go with los angeles transfer and storage. Everyone said that they ended up charging them much more for every little thing and that the move ended up costing a lot. After reading what people had to say about other moving companies I hoped that this would not happen to me even though they were a bit more expensive. The original quote they gave me they stuck to. I had 20 cubic feet over my original quote and they still did not charge me a penny more. They did a full packing move for me and not damage a single item. I am so happy I came across this company and will book them on my next move. Thank you Lisa for helping me throughout my move.

Use Presto Moving & Storage instead.

We previously used Presto for our move from CA to FL without any damages to our items. Fast forward two years later for my Mom's move from CA to FL. We opted to go with Los Angeles Transfer and Storage because they were slightly cheaper. This was a costly mistake as all four dining chairs had paint scraped off, one caster leg on a desk chair broke off as did one of the wooden legs on an antique chair.

We filed a claim for damages. After several phone calls and emails, reimbursement for damages was only $177.00. This was based on which box was checked and signed for on the contract. It was true that she 'signed' for limited liability however she did not check the box for this option.  There is a difference between signed and checked.  The rep, David, put an X next to three places where my Mom needed to sign.  One was 'Form of Payment at Delivery'.  Another was 'To Be Signed Upon Pickup'.  The most crucial was 'Option A: Limited Liability'.  The box for that option was not checked.  Instead of giving my Mom an option of selecting Option A or Option B which was Replacement value, David put an X next to where she was to sign for Option A.  There was no discussion about the options.

At the time of this transaction, my Mom was a single 80 year old woman preparing to move from California cross country to Florida.  The process was overwhelming for her.  David preyed upon her vulnerabilities by not taking the time to explain the options to her.  It is very sad that an individual would do this.  I doubt he would do this to his own mother.

In addition, they stole a full bottle of Valium from her medicine cabinet.

This was the worst move ever. They sent packers one with ankle monitor for a gun charge who asked if I would get him a pistol the other who could not write on the boxes. I provided a detail list of items from united moving was quoted 9900 for 2100 cu feet and when they had the truck half loaded said it was 2500 cu feet and 1500 dollars more. now we are over 11500 dollars I felt highjacked and bullied but paid s I had to be out of my house the next day. Fast forward stuff arrives late thrown in truck like a 5 year old packed stuff damaged I have pictures and guess what it was only 1800 cu feet. The driver says cash before I can even see but I have pictures. Never use this company they are not honest and my stuff is missing and scratched and smashed.
