I wish I'd read the reviews before hiring Duane. They are incredibly slow and charged me for "commute time." Find someone else!!

DO NOT HIRE THEM!!! I used Duane and his not-so-experienced crew a year ago moving from my condo in Oakland. I hired them to pack and load my belongings into PODs. It was a horrendous process. They underestimated everything from timing, to boxes, to how much would fit in the POD. I kept asking through the whole process if the POD was large enough, it didn't seem so to me. And at the end, I had to scramble and get another pod because they left my most valuable stuff to the end so I had to 1/2 fill one and it cost me extra to store two pods. AND THEN DUANE WILL ASK YOU FOR CASH ONLY! The move cost me THREE TIMES what I was quoted. FAST FORWARD over a year later, I'm finally unpacking my PODS and it was THE WORST packing job ever, I just found a bag of TRASH and a box of wire hangers. The crew needed so much managing that I could not monitor what was going into the storage and they kept asking me questions over and over. I had to call Duane multiple times to manage his team. I lost so much money and they treated me horribly during a very hard time. They overcharged me for boxes and furniture pads that were taped terribly. I AGREE WITH ALL THE ONE STARE REVIEWS, TOTAL SCAM! DO NOT HIRE! AT ALL!

Born Moving helped us move four office rooms, furniture, copier, and a large amount of boxes across town. Everything was meticulously packed with pads, plastic wrap and tape. All movers were friendly, followed instructions and worked hard for 14 hours with a short break for lunch. Very pleased and highly recommend.Services: Furniture assembly

Born Moving is an AWESOME moving company! They have great customer service and the owner is honest and very friendly! He made my moving day so easy, they showed up on time and worked efficiently and made sure to be careful with all my boxes and belongings. I've worked with other moving companies in the past and have never had an experience like I've had with Born Moving. The owner went above and beyond to help me. Scheduling a date was super easy and convenient too, they make the whole process so easy and stress free. If you're considering hiring a moving company definitely check these guys out!Services: Oversized-item moving

To put this into perspective:Last year Born Moving packed and moved me less than a mile away with a bill of $9K. Now I'm moving out of state (650 miles away) and my bill for them disassembling, packing, moving, (including gas, insurance and their overnight stay due to the distance they are driving), unpacking and reassembly is only $4.6K. I a quote which includes all mentioned above whereas when hiring Born Moving is was all verbal. I'm writing this for others - PLEASE be aware and get anything you can think of in writing before using this company. Take note of distance between where you live and where they are coming and returning to and account for traffic should they run into it as you'll pay for that as well. I learned my lesson well (I hope) as I had just received a pension payout and it all went to them. Now I can only have wished I'd known and I would have been more selective or asked for something in writing. I just hope my pension was spent well and they enjoyed whatever they bought with it. My first review never made it to the main page so I wanted to send in this follow up. Though I'm no longer dwelling on their ways; instead I saw a request for a few payments (old requests) in my Venmo just now and it brought some bitterness back to my heart. Hopefully someone will wisely do their research before considering any company for hire.

Born Moving was a great choice in helping me move. This is the first time I actually hired out someone to help me move. As a family we usually just spent our entire weekend moving and unpacking. This time I decided to get someone to help. Born Moving was the best in helping smooth our transition from one home to the other. They were so good in fact that I recommended them to my significant other who used them to move her two months after my recommendation!! Professional! On-time! Courteous! Responsive! Etcetera, etcetera, etcetera!!!Services: Local moving

THIS WAS THE WORST MOVING EXPERIENCE EVER! The most efficient thing they moved all day was the beer from our spare refrigerator. Guys were drinking and getting high throughout the day. Paid no attention to detail. Lost the hardware to our furniture so nothing could be set up at the new place. And yes, like everyone else, they charged us for their lunch hour(s), driving to and from the site, and for the driver sitting in the truck. I wish I would have read these reviews before we enlisted their help. The name should not be Born Moving. Instead it should be Born Grifting. This company (and I use that word lightly) is the worst and I hope nobody else gets sucked into using them.

Arrived late, tried to overcharge us and damaged our property. Paid them more for their own travel time and breaks than for the actual move. I would NOT recommend them to anyone!

Worst moving experience ever.Duane charges way over market rate. I was willing to pay more to ensure I would have efficient service. It was just the opposite. This move took MUCH longer than any other move I have done with the same size place. Instead of managing his team , he sits in the truck and does nothing. I ended up doing a lot of the move myself to try to cut down on the time. And still ended up paying 3x as much as I have for other moves. The total was almost as much as it cost me to move cross country!DO NOT USE THEM

My bill was a little over $9000. I had two days to move out and hired a 3 person crew to pack and move a two bedroom apt. I was charged for their drivetime from their location to my apt. (1 hour each way for two days at $355/hr. which is a little over $1400 for them driving to and from their work site). I was charged for their lunch breaks both days which he kindly took $200 off when I brought it up to him... which is like 15 mins each day for lunch when in reality it was 45 day one and over 60 minutes day two.Beware and be sure to get everything in writing and clock their hours if you need to use them. I'll be paying off the loans I needed to obtain just to pay these guys for my 2-bedroom 1 mile away move.

Worst company and worst customer service. Was basically charged for them to drive to my house, take breaks, hang out in the toilet and damage my property. Please consider an alternative hard working company that deserves your money.
