HOLY MOLY! Where do I even begin. First of all, in the last 6 years, I've moved probably 3-4 times. I've hired through task rabbit, asked for recs through friends, and have even hired those amazing parking lot patrons you see at every Home Depot. Long story short, it's always been a nightmare. Half of my things end up broken, my walls get scuffed, I end up needing to help lift things and spend hours afterwards cleaning up what the movers messed up. When planning my current move, I knew I had some really tricky pieces that were going to be an absolute beast to move to my new condo. I decided to dish out a couple extra bucks and work with an actual moving company this time after my best friend Lauren raved about LA Moving Star for months.When I tell you I'm astonished. First of all, the price was very reasonable and the movers that showed up were actual professionals. I would call them moving artists to say the least. They strategically have so many tricks up their sleeves in getting massive items through very cramped and small spaces. Everything was wrapped beautifully and not a single thing was damaged. Not only that but they were SO efficient. They were hustling, moving fast, and getting it all done in a timely manner. Usually when companies charge by the hour, I tend to notice workers taking their sweet time in certain areas... But this company values integrity and you can tell. They actually care about their customers and it's SO apparent. My specific movers were Alex, Max, and Serg and the 3 boys were spectacular. This move was definitely not an easy one and they even had to completely disassemble and rebuild my three massive closet pieces by hand.I cannot reccomend this company enough and will be reffering everybody I know to use them. Thank you thank you thank you!!!

Two great workers helped with moving my entire apartment. It was a big move with a fridge, desk, tv and bed. Fast, friendly, and would absolutely hire again. They handled the move up a flight of stairs as well

I thought that all the 5 star reviews must be fake. But nope, LA Moving Star is the real deal. Max, Mike and Serge did an amazing job and they stayed within the quoted time right down to the hour. I was so stressed about not having packed everything but they did in 2 hours what would have taken me 3 days. The only thing I will say is that they don't wrap/break down eeeevvverryytthiing. there were some things put in the truck unwrapped (not the big important stuff, but small tables, artwork) that made me nervous. so if you want everything wrapped, ask them. but nothing was damaged so no harm no foul. trust the experts!

Alex and Max were great. We had a nice moving despite of all the situations we had in our complex apartment. They were testing the alarms and access was limited. I definitely suggest them and refer them to my family and friends.
