It's my second time using this moving company. It was definitely worth it and will recommend to do it for my family. Andrew and Peter were so amazing and extremely efficient and hardworking! They were so focused and friendly. I'm glad that they helped me out as they disassemble and assemble my bedframe, dressers, and drawers. I am glad I packed everything in boxes in advance. I would definitely recommend this company to my family and friends! I would use them again in the future!

From booking my movers, to the end of the move, everything was perfect. I highly recommend LA Moving Star. I booked them once before a while back, and was happy. And once again, even with 2 new movers, everything was just as great! Roman and Ivan showed up on time, they were caring, kind, efficient, hard working, and got the job done with ease. Will definitely be booking this company whenever I move.
