I encouraged my mother to hire Meathead Movers for her move from Atascadero, CA to Kuna, ID because I trusted their reputation. The quotes were higher than other companies, but I told her she was paying for peace of mind. Unfortunately, this was far from any peace. From the beginning, we questioned the estimator's…

So I have used Meathead movers 3 times over the years and I have never had anything but a good experience. The process is quick and efficient. They are always on time and maximize their work to keep the costs down. Are accurate in their estimates. Moving guys are courteous and respectful. Great people to help you move.

We hired Meathead Movers to help get my 86 year old brother moved from his house to an apartment. The movers were very careful to wrap things like his TV to make sure nothing got broken. They were fast and friendly and willing to help with our requests. The cost was reasonable. I would highly recommend this company.

Quality of work and work ethic. We used Meathead Movers to help me unload when we moved to Morro Bay. (Help me) They did everything, all I had to do was point where I wanted stuff, they even loaded my storage shed. It was a lifesaver for me. We used them again to help my Daughter and family move from an upstairs…

As a single older person, Meathead movers was a godsend. When I purchased my new home, they met me at my storage unit did all the loading in an organized and careful manner and then met me at my house and unloaded everything. With the same care. The personnel were very friendly and accommodating. I recommend them to everyone.
