James, George and Toro were great and incredibly efficient. They came on time, well prepared with all tools necessary. They did a great job and finished the move in less than 5h. Highly recommended!
Andy and Wick were a pleasure to work with on our move from the SF Bay Area to Santa Barbara. Andy came by the house several weeks before our move. He asked a number of good questions and then offered my family and I a very fair and honest service taking the stress out of a big interstate move. Highly recommend their services.
These guys are the best! Made my move stress-free and couldn’t ask for better service during the whole thing. Highly recommended!
If I could give this mover 10 stars I would. Wick and his crew did an absolutely superb job in safely moving the contents of our 4 bedroom house in northern California to southern California. I just finished unpacking 4 dish packs of my fine china and crystal (there was a LOT), and was amazed at how carefully it had…
Great movers, they were super responsive on time and a great value. They were also gentle with the furniture and the floors. Would highly recommend for your next move!
Great movers. Very professional and courteous. Movers were masked up, on time, and really fast. Would definitely recommend for quality and affordability!
The crew of folks here are super professional and punctual.

We had a great experience using the Budget Movers to move from our old apartment building into our new home. They were very helpful and responsive in the time leading up to moving day, and were incredibly organized, efficient and careful during the move. They had everything at our old spot packed up and then…
James showed up on time. He was very about business. He’s very normal which is rare in the moving business. I have moved 5 times in my adult life and James was the best of anyone I have hired. He wore a mask. He used alcohol wipes on everything he touched. I will keep his number and recommend him to anyone I know…
Budget Movers moved my mom and I a few months back and it was so easy working with James. I called James and he came to give me a estimate on my move and told us what we need to do to save a bit of money in the process. James, Wick, Andy and Toro are the guys to call for any of your moving needs. Thank you Budget Movers for all your help
James, Wick, Toro and Andy moves my 2 bedroom apartment from San Francisco to San Bruno Shelter Creek condominiums where it isn’t easy to move people in to. Wick was extremely accommodating to my family and I’s needs and even came in under budget because they were very efficient and prompt. If you want a full…
James, Wick, Toro and Andy were absolute godsends. I dont know what we would have done without them! They provided the best, most pofessional service weve ever had. They made this the least stressful move ever! They took the utmost care with our belongings, treating them as if they were their own. I'm going to be recommending them to everyone I know.

I recently did a move with Budget Movers, and Jason & Toro were amazing! They were quick, responsive and professional. I was moved out of a 2 bedroom in about 3 hours!!! I’ll definitely refer them to all of my friends.
These guys are THE best. We have used them more than once and they do a great job each time. They are on time, highly professional, and very dedicated. Highly recommend them for your next move!!!!
James and Toro did an outstanding job. They showed up on time, got our stuff packed, and moved everything efficiently for a great price. I would recommend them to anyone in the Bay Area. Couldn’t have had a better experience.
