Louie was professional and transparent and most importantly did a great job shipping stained glass cross country. I would definitely use again.

The entire team at Navis Pack & Ship in Glendale was incredible and helped my wife and me through a complicated moment in our lives. We live in New England and were visiting Los Angeles on a quick timeline to help clear out the home of a family member who passed away suddenly. While we were helping organize the belongings, we learned that a lot of antique furniture and family heirlooms were assigned to my wife and me from the will.We were immediately concerned about how to ship across the country two large antique chests, a wooden chair, and a host of other antique family heirlooms that are too fragile to ship with UPS or FedEx. We considered renting a cargo van and driving across the country with the items but simply couldn’t due to circumstances. After a quick Google search, we discovered that Navis specialized in packing and shipping large goods, antiques, odd-shaped items, and complicated items to ship.After a quick drive to their facility, we met with both the owners, Elin and Louie and explained our situation and concern about shipping antique furniture across the country and how to do it. Elin and Louie explained how they would package each item, ship, and how we would receive the items. Additionally, my wife and I felt they understood our situation and respected that it was an emotional time for us while we probably came off as frantic. We decided to go with Navis and brought a bunch of the items to their facility and arranged for a pick-up of the larger items with their truck. Each item was scrutinized, cataloged, and labeled for packaging. We felt comfortable with these items in Navis’s hands once we left Los Angeles and felt further confident in them because Elin and a young woman named Maria provided me with constant status updates while everything was being packaged and in transit.Once I received the items at my home and saw how everything was packaged, we were blown away! Each piece of furniture was individually wrapped in a mixture of soft foam packing sheets, with corner foam squares, plastic wrap, and additional foam secured to particular sections, and put into a large thick box that had 6-inch-thick foam sections between the box and furniture to prevent it from wobbling or absorbing any real damage. Each piece was handled uniquely to its shape and size. The boxes were then arranged on a pallet and further protected with edge protectors, heavy-duty pallet wrapping, and more “FRAGILE” and “THIS SIDE UP” stickers than I knew existed. Once we opened everything, we were delighted to see that all of our family heirlooms and antique furniture were perfectly secure with not one ounce of damage.It felt great receiving these items in perfect condition during a tough time in our lives. Elin, Louie, Maria, and the entire team at Navis could not have been more professional, patient, and accommodating while demonstrating their expertise in packing and shipping of delicate items. If we could rate them 10 stars, we would.

Navis helped me get my fragile packages from the U.S. to Korea on time and in perfect condition. Would definitely recommend their business to anyone looking to ship valuable and fragile items. They were very responsive and helped me through every step of the process. They are very professional and great to do business with!

Louis and his staff were so professional! We had a bind in moving all our things and he went out of his way to help us out. Great people to work with. They were so caring and considerate.

Moved my daughter to LA, but we mistakenly moved some furniture that was not to go. I found Navis and they gave me a quote on line that beat every other option hands down. Had them ship to my employment site with a dock, even cheaper. Pallet and furniture arrived in perfect condition. So easy, highly recommended.

OK the first thing you need to know about this company is - they are not your basic "Joe Schmo Movers" or a low end company like "2 Guys and A Truck" - these guys are the real deal. They are serious PACKERS first - and of course, they are very cautious, meticulous movers. If you treasure your fragile collectibles, or your sentimental belongings like old photo albums, antiques, fine art, record albums, baseball cards, comic books, jewelry, and family mementos that are literally irreplaceable - these are the guys to call. They are not called Navis PACK and SHIP for nothing. The franchise owner Louie came to my home - not once but twice - to measure and document everything that needed to be packed - and making special notes on how they were to boxed - there was alot of stuff...I've been a collector of old movie memorabilia, old records, vintage stereo equipment etc. since I was a kid. Louie and the crew showed up the first day with a truckload of boxes and a four man crew - the boxes they provided were double walled for my fragile record albums, and custom cut boxes for all my wall art (which are first covered in a special kind of packing paper, THEN bubble wrapped and shrink wrapped, before being delicately placed into their custom boxes - they all fit like the proverbial glove. I was - to say the least - a bit CONCERNED - that everything would be packed in such a way that each item would be virtually IMPERVIOUS to damage, even if accidentally, a box was DROPPED - which we know happens all the time...Navis Pack and Ship delivered on my expectations - like I said, these guys are the real deal. One note: We did underestimate the amount of time it would take to pack all my stuff - a planned 2 day pack out and move turned into a 3 day pack out and move, but I was there, along with my fiance Jennie, watching everything they did - and these guys are not ones to rush - so yes, they took a bit longer than we originally anticipated to get everything packed, but this was because they're truly CAREFUL with your stuff - they wanted to make sure I was comfortable with the way things were packed. These guys go above and beyond to pack things so they WONT GET DAMAGED DURING YOUR MOVE. Period. For me, that is worth spending a litte more $, to have that kind of peace of mind. By the way, the owner Louie is a terrific, hard working, and funny guy - in fact the whole crew made what could have been a frustrating, boring few days actually fun...there was a lotta laughs goin' on, like the whole time - pretty amazing considering the hard work these guys are doing...Louie is like a teacher - mentoring his younger employees, and calling me over to see - with a definite sense of pride - how he and his crew had meticulously measured and cut the custom boxes for my vintage movie posters at their facility in Glendale. I will say, if youre on a super tight budget, these guys are not the least expensive moving company you can hire. But most movers can't and don't pack your stuff the way these guys do. I guess some people can just do all the packing themselves - you know, when youre ready to move - measure every single belonging you have, then go Box City and buy all the packing materal yourself - then try to figure out how to pack it...all I can say is good luck. Remember the old saying "You Get What You Pay For". I'm a record producer, music director, recording artist and pianist. I know what I'm good at...packing priceless antiques ain't my thing. If you truly want your precious collectibles and irreplaceable family heirlooms packed by professionals, as far as I'm concerned, these guys are the only guys to call. Thanks to Louie and the crew: Jose, Eddie, Manny, Elvis, Julian, and Elin in the office... Thanks again for all your patience and caring work. All the best, Bradley Young and Jennie Quimbita

People in the Glendale area - if you need to ever ship something that is precious and fragile - consider Navis Pack & Ship on 822 Allen ave in Glendale. I have used Navis Pack now for shipping several paintings and antiques . ALL have arrived in PERFECT condition. The recipients were all over the United States and some international. They stated that when they received the paintings and antiques, they were packed rock solid like a fort. We had the pleasure of having Louie and crew come build customs crates So there was no chance of damage. This last time I shipped a painting to a friend's father and asked if there was any chance of it making it in time for the man's 66th birthday 2 days from then. Originally they were going to ship it out in 2-3 days. They not only packaged it up that very day but Louie the owner came out himself to do it and He got it out with UPS but my friends father received it THE NEXT DAY!!! EARLY for his birthday. In a very hard year, he received something that brought him so much joy and happiness. I cannot thank Navis enough not only for doing a great job packing things so they arrive undamaged, but in their amazing customer service! I will ship all my precious items with them from now on! Louie and Elin went above and beyond for myself treating me like family the entire step of the way. A great experience all the way around.
