Absolutely horrible experience. Would not use this company or recommend. After losing everything g in the Palisades fire this is the last thing I needed to deal with. They damaged my new items and the property, then treated me unfairly by offering the lowest amount to resolve the issues they caused. My brand new mattress and couch are ripped badly and ruined.

Totally the opposite experience compared to the last move in 2020. Their service has really gone down in quality in my personal opinion. Pity!

When my wife was moved into assisted living due to Parkinson's disease, I found myself alone in our 5,000-square-foot home and needing to downsize. I found a new home closer to her and hired Meathead Movers to help with what was both a major move and a significant life transition. From the beginning, the experience was outstanding. The quoting process was simple, transparent, and easy to understand. Their communication was excellent, and they made sure I knew exactly how to prepare.

Meathead Movers did an awesome job from start to finish. The crew was professional, fast, careful with everything, and had a great attitude the whole time. They made the move way less stressful than I expected. Highly recommend them if you want movers that actually care and work hard.

5-star Google reviewErynne A.a month ago
We moved on Halloween with two little kids, and I honestly don’t know how we would have pulled it off without Meathead Movers. Life was already so busy, and they made the moving process feel so much less stressful. The crew was friendly, incredibly hardworking, organized, and took great care of our home and belongings. Yes, they cost more than some other companies, but for us, it was worth every penny. They gave us peace of mind during a really hectic season of life, and I’d hire them again in a heartbeat.

I’m glad I hired this company, for both teams that I had they were really good young men, very respectful, always listening to any last minute changes. They were also on time and the price was very reasonable. I would recommend to everyone to hire these guys, by doing that you are giving them an opportunity to learn and to be respectful and to be responsible.
