Ali and his team were great! I had a small move and some furniture disassembly. The furniture was disassembled and reassembled carefully and without any issues. They were punctual, professional, and easy to work with. They were extremely efficient, and the whole move was completed in about 3 hours. They were very organized and remembered all of my instructions. Nothing was damaged during the move, and they placed everything where I wanted it. They also communicated very well, calling ahead of time to let me know they were on their way. The whole process was easy and stress free. I would definitely recommend their services!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much, Ava! 😊 We’re so happy to hear that the team made your move easy and stress-free. We really appreciate you taking the time to share such a thoughtful review, and we’ll be sure to pass your kind words along to the crew. Thanks again for trusting Dependable Movers! ❤️

Ken and his partner were absolute life savers for moving things from a POD into my 3rd floor apartment. They were able to fit me in for a next day reservation. I would absolutely recommend and use Dependable Movers again.

DM Movers sent 4 guys for our move from one apartment to another, just a few miles apart. The distance wasn't bad, but both buildings had those ridiculously long hallways that make moving way harder than it should be. The pickup in Mountain View was a hike—parking lot to elevator was a solid walk, then another long hallway to the unit. The guys didn't complain. They loaded up all our furniture and boxes, wrapped everything carefully, and made trip after trip down that hallway without slowing down. The couch was the trickiest. Bulky, heavy, and squeezing it through the hallway was tight. But they angled it perfectly and got it on the truck without any wall damage. Santa Clara was the same story—long walk from the truck to the elevator, then down another hallway. They unloaded everything, set it all up where we wanted, and finished faster than I expected.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much, Gururaj! We truly appreciate you taking the time to share such a detailed review. It means a lot to hear that everything arrived safely and was set up just the way you wanted. We’re grateful you chose Dependable Movers and hope to help you again in the future! 🙌 - Dependable Movers

I would like to express my gratitude to the moving company for their excellent services during my local move in San Jose. I moved from a one-bedroom house to an apartment. The move started on time and with proper planning; the crew was careful and attentive to my stuff. They even placed floor coverings to keep it clean and safe during the move. The hardest part was when the crew reached the new apartment and had to carry my things up four flights of stairs. It was really difficult work, but they did a tremendous job. Nothing was damaged; all my stuff reached the new home in proper condition. The team was great: the leaders were qualified and helpful. The rates were very good, and they provided all the information in advance.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Lola! We truly appreciate you sharing your experience with us. We’re glad we could make your move a little easier, and we’ll be sure to pass your kind words along to the crew. Thank you again for choosing Dependable Movers!😊

15 DM Movers sent five of their experts through our move from San Jose to Fremont. We had only so much heavy stuff to move; three big cabinets and a fridge to move. The fridge was the thing I was most worried about. It is one of those big metal fridges that are difficult to carry, and it would be very bad if it was scratched during moving. But these guys knew how to do it perfectly—strapped the fridge, wrapped it well, and rolled it out without any scratch. The cabinets were heavy too. We needed two guys to move each of them through stairs. But they wrapped them up and moved them carefully and packed them into the truck. The unloading in Fremont was smooth. They placed everything where we planned ahead, set up the fridge, and made sure everything was in the right position.

I used this moving company to clear out our storage unit and honestly it went way better than I expected. We had a ton of stuff crammed in there, so I was a bit nervous about how it would all get handled. But the team showed up and got straight to work, and I could tell right away they knew what they were doing. They packed everything carefully nothing felt rushed or thrown together, even the fragile stuff got wrapped up properly. What I really appreciated was how easy they were to communicate with the whole time, so I never felt out of the loop. Loading it all up and getting it over to the warehouse was smooth, no issues at all. And when everything got unloaded at the warehouse, it was just as organized as when they packed it up. Literally nothing broke or went missing, which honestly says a lot about how careful this crew was. Beyond just doing good work, they were genuinely a solid group of guys to have around on moving day. If you need help with storage or a warehouse move, I’d 100% recommend these guys.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much, Dudy! We’re glad to hear everything went smoothly and that our team took great care of your belongings, especially the fragile items. We really appreciate your kind words about the crew and communication. Thank you for trusting Dependable Movers and for recommending us! - Dependable Movers

Used Dependable Movers for a move from Sunnyvale to Watsonville and honestly, really glad I went with them. That’s not a short drive, so I was a little nervous about how everything would hold up, but the guys handled it no problem. We had two really heavy pieces that I was stressing about beforehand, and they just knew what they were doing. Wrapped everything properly, moved them without banging up our walls or doorframes, no drama at all. They showed up when they said they would and just got to work, no wasted time but also didn’t feel like they were rushing and being careless with our stuff. They kept me in the loop about timing too, which I appreciated since it was such a long haul. Genuinely nice guys to deal with, made the whole thing way less stressful than I expected. Price matched what they quoted me, no random fees tacked on at the end. Everything showed up in the same shape it left in, which honestly surprised me a bit given how heavy some of it was. If you’ve got heavy stuff or a long-distance move, I’d 100% recommend these guys.
