Winter Moving & Storage Reviews

★★★★★
Giovani and his crew did a great job. They were very careful with our stuff.
- Johanna Metzgar

★★★★★
I've used Winter many times, and they are always professional, on time, and reasonably priced. They consistently do a good job packing and moving.
- Scott Kennedy

★★★☆☆
Guys were on time and did a decent job but gave pushback on performing some final tasks like remounting tv upon drop-off (no wall drilling required), etc. Very solid communication from management. Biggest issue was cost. Initial estimate was $500-800 (already a very wide range) for a 1 BR and the final bill was over $1100. The lack of transparency on cost felt avoidable and I’d probably look around at my options before using Winter again.
- Sam Michelman

★★★★★
Winter moving was professional, fast and fairly priced. My team of movers Youani, Hector and Timo were super hard working and efficient. Everyone wore masks the entire time to make the move safe. There are a lot of scams going on with movers in the Bay Area right now with the big volume of moves. Best to go with a reputable company like this one.
- Thomas Jackson

★☆☆☆☆
Never again. While we found their actual movers and drivers to be professional and punctual, their administrators are completely incompetent. Bad communication, unreturned phone calls, and finally, a random $1,500 charge to our credit card, applied a month after our final move was complete (and fully paid for) which they would have gotten away with if we hadn’t checked our credit card statement.
- Dan Shamouilian

★★★★★
We just used Winter Moving for the second time and could not recommend them more. They scheduled us in at short notice and are always extremely responsive. Them team that moved us were amazing. So polite, professional, careful and always with a smile on their faces. And fantastic value too. Highly recommend.

You can stop searching: Winter is the best moving company, hands-down! I've used Winter twice, and they've been nothing but professional, accommodating, and dependable. AKA: They quoted me exactly what they ended up charging me, they moved everything I had (even when it wasn't in moving boxes), showed up exactly on time, and they worked quickly and quietly. In 2017, they stored my stuff (as there was a two-week gap between my move-out and move-in dates). I was a bit worried - Who knows what could be in a storage facility, or if I'd get all of my stuff back. But, the movers were amazing, returning everything in perfect condition. In 2018 (just yesterday), they kept their cool despite moving within the city during rush hour/commuting hours. They also somehow moved all of my stuff into my room and positioned it perfectly - No reorganization needed, which is a blessing when everything is so heavy. The best movers - Thank you, Winter!

These guys were great to work with. Prompt, fast, polite, and took great of our personal items. They were also incredibly professional about some unexpected hiccups that we encountered along the way. Would work with them again in a heartbeat.
- Emeline J.

★★★★★
Winter moving was professional, considerate, and fast! I had requested to see if they can start as early as possible in the morning due to the bay bridge delay expected today at 11. With a normal start time of 8:30-9:30, they showed up right at 8:30'and got to work right away. Super efficient and protected all my furniture. Even worked with my new building to ensure everything was checked and secured. I shopped around a lot for movers and they were the most responsive and fair priced movers. Their quality of service was great and would definitely recommend!!!

Called. Emailed. No answser. No response. Not exactly what you want in a moving company.
- Pearl R.

★★★★★
I used Winter Moving to move from a small 2 bedroom apartment to a larger 3 bedroom duplex within Oakland and let me say, they exceeded all expectations! The guys arrived promptly on time with zero complaints about the six flight stairwell. They worked quietly and efficiently, carefully wrapping each item to ensure it was protected in the truck. They also broke down and re-assembled mine and my roommate's bed frames (huge time saver!). Once arriving at the duplex, they were careful to place items in the correct rooms and even arranged the furniture logically so that there was as little post-move work as possible. The management team, Jesse and Yotam, were so kind and helpful...an absolute pleasure to work with. I am so grateful to Winter Moving for making my move seamless and affordable. You guys are the best!

I hired them on short notice. Great price, hardworking crew for a pack and move. Highly recommend.
- Stephen L.

★★★★★
I was so impressed by our experience with Winter Moving, I highly recommend them to anyone in the San Francisco area! Not only were they quick to respond to our inquiry, but they were also willing to work with us on a VERY compressed time frame and with a few bumps in the road (on our end!). They moved us out of our office space in the Financial District in no time at all, and at a very reasonable price! Enormous shout out to Jesse for helping to organize everything and to the crew for being timely, fastidious, prepared, and adaptable!! Hands down made what would normally be a very stressful experience much more manageable! Can't thank you all enough!
- Lauren F.

★★★★★
Great moving experience. Highly recommend Winter Moving. Prompt, efficient, courteous, and reasonable rates! I needed to move on short notice, and I could only move on the weekend. Jesse was able to fit me in; he was also the fastest to send a quote of all the movers I contacted. He called to follow up and answer any questions. He also offered the cheapest rates (I compared ~15 movers on Yelp). Movers showed up at agreed upon time, and completed the move roughly 3 hrs (minimum booking window). They also did some packing that I was unable to finish, and I ended up paying the lower end of Jesse's quote. All round, very happy with them.

★★★★★
We just hired Winter Moving this past weekend to help us move across SF and it was such an easy and smooth process. They were always prompt to respond to my emails, sent a COI to my building ASAP, moved us out of our old place in an hour and finished so quickly. Will definitely hire them for our next move!

★☆☆☆☆
I went with them since I needed a small and fast move within less than 2 miles distance in San Francisco. I never received a contract from the manager over email. They said over the phone they charged extra for their own materials, so I bought my own, including blankets. Truck showed up on time, but the front mirror was broken, taped back together again. The foreman was rude, never went through contract when he first entered the property and started to immediately using their own materials. It got to the point where I had to call the office and explain what I wanted to be done and how and why I went with them. Needless to say, it was beyond poor service. Again the condescending attitude that we received from both the manager over the phone and the foreman was absolutely not needed and it only made a stressful situation even more so. I would never recommend going through these guys again. Use West Coast Moving, especially if you're a woman. They treat you with respect.
- Carolina S.

★☆☆☆☆
Hight recommended not to use it. They initially claimed only need max 4.5 hours to move a one bedroom apartment, ended up using 6.5 hrs because it took them more than 30 mins per round from apartment to the truck (with an elevator). They came with 3 people and only one small dolly. They only loaded up little bit at a time. And that's not it! They don't care about your house and your furniture. I saw they just pushed the dolly out the door and it hit my door and the door frame, which left a significant scratch. They damaged the coffee table and my small organizer. After the move, I went back to check the old apartment and saw more scratches. While unpacking at the new place, I found out more and more damages from the move. They are really horrible, not sure what their moving license means, but they calculated the compensation by the weight of furniture. Doesn't mean much and because of all their slacking, you ended up paying much more.

★★★★★
Long overdue five star rating. I had a set time to leave my apartment of ten years and several days before I moved into my new house. We did have a bump in the road on the day of the move as they said they sent me a contract that was to be returned before we booked. I was under the impression it was to be completed the day I moved when the movers arrived. Either way I called them, and they sent people to my apartment right away. Winters moved my belongings out in less time than expected and stored my things for an extra day at no cost. They also were very accommodating in rearranging the furniture in the new house when it didn't fit where I thought it would. Very grateful I used this company.
- RIsa C.

★★★★★
Cesar and his team were professional, friendly, and efficient. My wife and I moved both of our apartments in a single day to our new home. They were very careful with our items, ensuring everything was properly packed. Not a single item was scratched or broken. I also want to thank Jesse for being so responsive over email the weeks before the move. Great experience from start to finish. We will definitely use Winter for our next move.
- Doug K.

★★★★★
This was the first moving company I ever paid for personally. I called up several places to get quotes and check out reviews. These guys had great reviews and were able to schedule me with just only 2 weeks notice. Julio and his team came right at 9am and walked me through the process. He was professional and nice. Once the the paperwork was complete they checked each room and asked what was being loaded. Then they worked quickly and furiously. They moved us in 8 hours including driving time. I spent close to $2K with 20% tip bc they didn't even take a break for food or water even though I asked. Best money I ever spent and so happy to tip them a huge tip. I would highly recommend them to everyone!!!!!
- Toni T.

★★★★★
I worked with Yotam at Winter and he made my move a breeze. Very responsive, was able to clearly answer all my questions and provided a very reliable quote. My movers were Timo, Jobani and Huedo (sorry if I messed up your names guys) and they were super professional and very polite. They worked really quick, no time wasting, and did an amazing job disassembling and assembling furniture. Jobani even mounted my tv at the new place which was a huge bonus! I did a fair bit of research before settling on Winter and I'm glad I went with them. No items broken and I still can't believe how well they packaged my fragiles in so little time. Would highly recommend and use again if I ever leave my sweet new place.
- Farooq N.

★★★★★
Writing a positive review even though I didn't end up using them due to timing. Yotam was super responsive and helpful, and I give their customer service an A+. Winter was recommended by a friend who had a great experience with them moving from Mountain View to SF. He was also very understanding and even encouraging when I told him I would use another service that could do the move sooner. I was also only giving a week's notice or so.
- Celia E.

★★★★★
Amazing company , I used them 3 times already. Will us them again if needed. Did a great job with both moving and sto
- theo v.

★★★★★
I am very happy with my recent two moves with Winter moving. Also the storage they provided made my two moves much less stressful and financially efficient. My HOA requires moving company to provide moving insurence. Yotam from Winter moving was very fast on submitting insurence certification to my HOA. Communication on scheduling with Yotam was very easy, too. The day before move, Yotam would go over the specifics with you to insure a smooth move, he would also call to check with you how the moving goes on the day of. During my second move, we did not get to use the elevator, however the guys did not complain about walking up the stairs carrying very heavy furnitures, and was still able to get done on time. These guys are so hard working that they wouldn't even take a water break. But they appreciate if you hand them a bottle of water. I am very thankful to them. Highly recommend their service.
- Cici Z.

★★★★★
My apartment was flooded, requiring an unplanned move-out during a holiday week. Winter Moving & Storage came to the rescue! They were responsive and able to accommodate an ambiguous situation, placing our household goods in storage until we could locate a new apartment. The actual moving team arrived right on time, assisted with some last-minute packing, provided missing supplies and wrapped/moved everything with great care. We've now had the same, positive experience with scheduling our move-in. Highly recommend them to make the difficult task of moving a little easier to handle.
- Carolyn E.

★★★★★
I have used winter movers at least five times over the last several years. I've had complicated moves from multiple locations. Just last week I used them again to move from a house and Sunset San Francisco into the Berkeley hills and East Bay. They are extremely professional knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. they took great care of all of our stuff and they really coordinated the logistics of the move extremely well. they took apart and wrapped everything very carefully and we really didn't have anything at all that was broken. I've always been very happy with the reliability and quality of their work. As you can tell I can't recommend them enough. I also think their prices are quite reasonable and fair. I definitely will be using them again when we move again which I hope isn't very soon !
- Andy D.

★★★★★
I cannot explain in words how much is happy with the service and customer service of winter moving I was scared from my moving date but after I met the guys I understood that I can sleep well The guys came on time wrapped my stuff carefully and at the end charged me exactly how much we agreed on Thank you very much
- Or K.

★★★★★
When the shelter in place started in the Bay Area I was super nervous with how this move was going to even happen. We had a loft in the Mission District that needed to be packed up and moved from the 2nd floor which was about 50 stairs and without an elevator. Needless to say this was a pretty good sized job. After a few emails sent back and forth we decided on this moving company. The showed up on time, masks on and were very thorough about packing up the fragile pieces and getting things out and moved to another destination in about 6 hours. We were super happy with the move and I'm extremely happy we went with them. Thanks so much.
- Michelle Y.

★★★★★
I called several 5 star moving companies and Winter Moving had the lowest price plus they charged in 15 minute increments instead of hourly like the other guys. They showed up on time, were professional, got straight to business, and worked tirelessly for 6+ hours. I gave them a nice tip for all their effort. Thank you Winter Moving.
- Ray S.

★★★★★
Incredibly pleased and happy with their moving service. Yovani, Timo and Hector were very professional, fast, communicative and hard working. They completed our move in under the allotted time, everything was in perfect condition and we had a lovely experience. Highly recommended!
- Tim N.

★★★★★
Moving is such a stressful process isn't it? Ugh I've done it too many times in my life. But Winter made the moving process smooth and easy for me, and I would hire them again without a doubt. They are honest, on time, have great communication, work their a$$es off, and are very professional. Best moving company I've worked with in over 20 moves.
- Sunny B.

★★★★★
These movers were amazing! Javier, Octavio and Edgar were on top of it. Hustling from the moment they arrived. So nice and careful with everything, and wearing masks the whole time. Couldn't recommend them enough. Only thing is it took 30 minutes longer than their estimate, so factor in a little more time than what is quoted. But had they not busted their humps both loading out and in, it would have taken much longer! Best part is that they charge in increments of 15 minutes after a 3 hour minimum so we didn't have to pay for more time than it actually took. Thank you so much for making our moving day so easy!
- Christine W.

They had fantastic communication throughout the whole process. Great movers. Very fast. They all wore masks and were very polite. I would hire them again.

I was super worried that moving my things out of my apartment and into storage during the pandemic was going to be a huge issue. Lucky for me, Winter Moving got the job done incredibly efficiently. The movers wore masks throughout the entire process, and we were able to maintain safe distancing throughout. While moving out, I forgot to tell the movers to pack my bicycle as well. Lucky for me, Yotam was happy to help me out. I delivered my bike to the warehouse, and he was able to store it after the move. I moved back into SF a few days ago, and Winter Moving was happy to help. Again, they got the job done quickly and efficiently. After the job was over, I noticed that two of my items were missing. I didn't have super high hopes that I'd find them again, but I called up Yotam, and he said he'd look into it. Lucky for me, he found them! He was able to drive them to my building on the same day, and even helped me carry them up to my apartment. Above and beyond what I expected.
- Alec B.

★★★★★
After a great experience 3 years ago, I chose Winter Moving again. Some of the same people helped me - Yotam to set up the move, and Yobani, the crew lead. The fact that they have retained their key employees for 3 years suggests it's a well run company. Everything went great again. They did a good job, worked fast, and came in within the price estimate.
