My office recently relocated, and we used Commander for the move. I was really impressed with how flexible, responsive, and professional they were. Kurel was super nice and accommodating. Our move took 3 days, and the movers showed up on time and worked. The foreman, Adam, was organized, flexible, and easy to work with. I can comfortably recommend them. I think they did a great job. Thank you Commander!

Commander moving did an AMAZING job helping me move out of my sf apartment, to the east bay. They were recommended to me and their service was well worth it. They carefully took our boxes without complaint and tossed our broken junk furniture. They did a great job protecting some of our larger things (mirrors, paintings, etc). The movers - Efrain, Alberto, and Rigo - were very nice, professional, and accommodating to our requests. Would definitely hire in the future!

My family recently used Commander Moving and I can't say enough positive things about them. From the office (Ruth must have been a therapist in another life) to the crew (shouts to Efrain, Hirvin and Albert) everyone is incredibly friendly, professional and gets the job done well. Would happily recommend Commander Moving to anyone.

We had Efrain, Jose and Rigo move us yesterday. They were the best movers we have ever had -- and we have move more times than we can remember. The move was done a very reasonable price. We highly recommend Commander Moving.

We contacted Commander on the recommendation of the assisted living center where we were going to move Mom. Their service couldn't have been better! They were available immediately, they showed up on time, protected her antique furniture with plastic wrap so that nothing was lost or damaged, and got the transfer done very efficiently: elapsed time less than 2 hours. Reasonable cost, too!

Commander Moving provides excellent service at a reasonable price. We had to move a family member on short notice and they accommodated us. They even called the day after the move to make sure everything went well.

We hired Commander Moving to move us out of our current home so it can be staged and sold, while we spend a couple of months in an AirBnB, and all of our stuff is stored at the Commander Moving warehouse. Once our house sells and we find a new place, we'll have Commander Moving bring all of our furniture, art, clothes, etc. from their warehouse to our new home. The folks at Commander Moving were pleasant and professional on the phone, as was the estimator who came to our house weeks beforehand. On moving day, they sent two trucks, a van, extra packing materials, a supervisor, and 7 guys to move us. The company owner stopped by to check on his guys and to check-in on our satisfaction mid-move. They were prompt (8:00am) and quick: they had our multi-level 3-story home of 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, kitchen, LR, DR, office, washer/dryer, heavy wine fridge, standup freezer, sofas, chairs, storage areas, and LOTS of fragile art packed and on the truck by 2:00pm -- well ahead of schedule. They then left for the warehouse where they loaded our things into protective containers. All of the guys were hard workers, strong, careful, friendly, courteous, and professional. We are very happy with our experience so far and feel confident our belongings are in good care at their warehouse while we search for our next home. This is a super-stressful time; the folks at Commander Moving made moving day (relatively) stress-free.

Staff was courteous and careful with all items at all times. The movers were not in a hurry and the whole process was smooth. Ruth was very extremely helpful with the rates and explaining logistics.

Great experience. Each conversation I had with Ruth was pleasant. She is super nice. The cost was very reasonable. The guys were professional and on time. I would use them again and will refer others to them.

This is a great local company and I highly recommend them. They arrived on time and didn't waste a minute. While they were super fast, and despite stairs on both ends, they wrapped all the furniture, took care with all my plants, and were very responsive and friendly. Ruth, who takes orders, schedules and handles everything, is so easy to work with, efficient, friendly; she's the best. Do't even think about hiring another company!

I'm so happy I chose Commander Moving for my move from Oakland to SF. From getting an estimate to the actual move, everything was so smooth. Ruth, who handled the scheduling, was so reassuring and kind. The moving guys, Irvin, Rigo, and Efrain, were amazingly fast and efficient. Moving stuff from a 2nd floor Victorian walk-up into a condo that has no loading dock AND a long circuitous route to get to my 12th floor apartment is a pain but these guys didn't even sweat. I'd hire them again in a heartbeat!

At $125 per hour (plus $65 fuel surcharge) for two movers and a 24' truck, the pricing rate for this moving service is about what I expected. The movers were hard-working and did a good job. I docked a star because the employees charged for 5 hours despite working 4 hours, since they arrived at our storage unit at 8am without notifying us ahead of time that they were on the way, and needed to wait for me to arrive to provide them with access to the unit. We were told by Ruth (the very nice person who answers at the phone number) that we would receive a call 20-30 minutes ahead of the start time to avoid this exact scenario. The employees also claimed a need to be paid for the time spent driving to the loading location and from the unloading location (from/to the Commander Moving truck depot), which I don't understand. The move began at 8:30am and ended at 12:30pm, but they charged for 8am to 1pm. This experience reflects a preventable communication problem that cost us an extra $125. Putting this problem aside, I was satisfied with the moving service provided and would recommend them if the loading location is somewhere you'll be able to meet the movers as soon as they say they've arrived.

Man I love these folks. They've now moved us all around SF and East Bay 5 or 6 times over the last 15 years, plus storage for a couple containers of stuff for the past few months, and they're never anything but a pleasure to work with from the first phone call with Ruth to site visits from Karel to the final box delivered by any one of the many crews we've worked with. Super friendly, flexible, responsible, professional, just whatever you need from the smallest to the largest is never a problem. And always on or under budget, in both time and money. Moving is generally something to grit your teeth and get through, except for the working-with-Commander part - that part I actually, legitimately, look forward to. Can't wait to do it again. :)

Commander Moving team was excellent start to finish! They always answered the phones and immediately responded to my emails. Their estimate was spot on. The moving team was on time, and they communicated about their arrival time. They were quick, efficient, and had a good sense of humor.All my belongings arrived in tact and had been wrapped and prepared carefully for travel. I have used Commander for 3 moves now, and all their team members have been great. 10/10.

Wow wow wow. I am so happy we hired commander moving for our recent move from Oakland to Walnut Creek. I am 8.5 months pregnant and literally cannot be more grateful for the support that Ruth and her team provided. From the start, they were responsive and empathetic towards our situation - Ruth was so sweet and concerned about me doing too much while so late in my pregnancy. Our timeline was up in the air pending when some work in the house was getting complete and if the baby would arrive early. Mike was able to come do a quote for us immediately and schedule a good day for the move. We had to push back our move date by a week which worried me but Ruth was so understanding and worked her magic to be able to fit us in on a different day. We ended up going with the pack and move which was more expensive due to the the hours needed to pack but it was well worth it. I don't think I'll ever move without a pack and move again! We split the pack and move into two days which was no extra cost. On the first day Mike came with two other guys, Alberto and Efren. They were professional, speedy, and friendly and were able to pack most of our things within 3 hours! They were also great about checking in with us around what we may have needed to keep unpacked for the last night we would be staying at our place. The next day, they Alberto, Efren, and Alex came to disassemble the big pieces of furniture and pack the rest of our things. They worked through lunch and were hustling! When finally arriving to our new home, they unloaded everything and put together all our large furniture pieces - even helped a little with ideas on where to place things! Overall, the move took about 11-12 hours over two days. Since my husband had to work, it was mainly just me working with with them and they were all so sweet in making sure I was low stress and resting while pregnant. I didn't have to lift a finger! Huge gratitude to commander moving, especially Ruth, Mike, Alberto, Efren, and Alex. Y'all were the first to help us settle into two huge transitions in our lives and we won't forget!
