Review Analysis
Moving made simple, but not without a price tag. After analyzing 1,615 customer feedback entries, an impressive 93.7% were positive, making Affordable Moving one of the best-rated companies in its category. Customers praise their efficient service, careful handling of personal belongings, and lightning-fast moving process.
The moving teams are described as courteous, professional, and often finish ahead of the quoted time. Affordable rates compared to competitors attract customers who appreciate transparency and no hidden costs. On the other hand, the most common complaint is damage to items or property, followed by higher-than-expected final charges and occasional slow-moving crews. Some neutrals and negatives highlight that costs can increase quickly if jobs run long or if extra fees are added for heavy items. Few customers mention pressure for tips or subpar packing. Compared to similar companies, Affordable Moving stands out for consistency, reliable professionalism, and flexible scheduling—though claims of affordability do not always hold up for every customer. For those seeking a trustworthy, responsive, and efficient moving partner, Affordable Moving remains a leader, with careful consideration advised for complex jobs or strict budgets.

Should you negotiate with Los Angeles movers?toggle

While haggling over moving costs isn't typically effective, there are still ways to save. Many companies offer ongoing moving discounts for groups like seniors, military personnel, and students, as well as special offers for early-bird reservations.

Getting quotes from multiple companies will also allow you to inquire about price matching. Some movers will honor lower quotes from competitors, so it doesn’t hurt to ask — and be ready to show estimates from other companies.

How do I choose a Los Angeles moving company?toggle

To choose the best moving company for you, start by researching reputable movers in Los Angeles. You'll want to be on the lookout for companies with mostly positive customer reviews, valid licenses, and comprehensive insurance to ensure your belongings are protected. Beyond that, you’ll want to make sure they can handle the type of move you need.

Ask for detailed moving quotes from at least three companies to compare services, pricing, and availability. A reliable Los Angeles moving company will be one that offers transparent pricing, excellent communication, and a proven track record of successful moves.
