Steady Moves

Mark’s company was recommended to my by a family member. I had used his movers a couple of years ago, with no problems. I called mark this time to see if he had movers available on the date of my move and he assured me that he did. He quoted that it would cost around $ 300.
The movers showed up on time (there were 3 of them). One was clearly high and reeked of marijuana. I showed them around and told them what I needed done as far as furniture moved, etc.
The move ended up taking much longer, due to one of the movers admitting this was his first time moving heavy furniture, which I had a lot of. So instead of the $ 300 I was quoted, it ended up costing almost $ 700.
I have a white chair that is in my baby’s nursery. Very expensive and relatively new. I specifically asked them to be careful not to get it dirty and offered blankets to cover it in the truck. The two movers who moved it failed to wash their hands, resulting in black stains eveywhere they touced.
My son’s toddler wooden race car bed was also broken and my bed frame came away with a very large scratch on the headboard. The movers did not assemble my bed correctly and it broke within days of the move.
After sending pictures, asking to have my furniture fixed, and waiting for responses nothing has been done to remedy this situation and it has been 8 days.
I would not recommend this company if you have nice furniture or are expecting professionalism.
Mark was not one of the movers. Perhaps if he had been there to supervise, things might have gone differently.

Great experience with Steady Moves! Did a great job moving us in and went above and beyond to get the job done.

Units put us onto these guys and we really appreciated their help and service. The price was right and the guys that came worked their buts off packing and loading the Unit. We had friends come over to help us unload at our new home and they said that the movers cubed the Unit storage perfectly. Save the stress of moving and use these guys!

Absolutely fantastic. I called a few days prior to my move. Mark returned my call quickly, said he and his team could be here. They got here right on time, even a bit early. Easy to talk to crew, very professional, worked hard, fast, and went the extra mile by helping with filling in dings left from the building of the house, helping us hook up the fridge, took off the front door and put it back on to get the fridge in, helped with tools, hammering/​screwing things out and in.
Overall fantastic service by all three of the movers who helped.
Thanks again and I will certainly recommend to my friends.

We used steady moves from a referral of UNITS (portable storage). The three man team, Ben, Tyler and Mike, were phenomenal! They arrived on time and took no breaks! They kept working steady and quickly and very efficiently. They packed the units like Tetris from bottom to top nice and stacked and organized. Our house is huge and had tons of stuff and they got both units done in less than 6 hours! We plan to hire them again in a month to unload our units into our new home!

Kudos to Mark and his team for a great job second to none. We utilized his team for a second time on December 28 to load an ABF trailer that we were using to move from California to Ohio. His crew of three arrived on time and ready to get the job done. They loaded the truck efficiently and in a way that, when we got to Ohio and unpacked there was nothing broken and only a minor scratch on a piece of wood.
My recommendation is to not think twice about using Steady Moves. Mark will be able to tell you what you should do to get prepared (moving pads, shrink wrap, etc.) and once his team is there you will see your tasks being taken care of quickly and with care.
I give 5 stars because 10 are not available. After 2 different times using Steady Moves I can assure you that you will be a believer too.

This is my third time hiring Steady Moves for moving my family, and once again they don’t disappoint. I use a 3-​person crew, which seems to be the perfect number to get the job done with my larger home moves. Mark is quick on responding to inquiries and working out the details up front. He matches his crews to the job (I got three big guys who were familiar with each other and were able to manage heavy, large furniture at a tri-​level home). The crews are professional, have great attitudes, are hard working, and are skilled at carefully packing my 26-​ft rented truck full. Hint to people who hire movers: Be organized, stay chilled out, and take care of your crew (food, water, creature comforts) and they will take care of you! Steady Moves is consistently higher quality with their crews.

Another easy move with Steady Moves. Mark sent Moses and a buddy to load a 26 foot truck to put into a 10×15 storage unit! Couldn’t be happier with their cheerful attitude, careful loading and unloading, and genius in collapsing our stuff into our storage unit. I have used Steady Moves 4 times before and recommended them to many others who share my high opinion of them!

Awesome! I found Steady Moves through Unilocal and through a referral of UNITS (portable containers). Mark and his staff are great and customer service is their top priority. My movers — Fred and Moses — were great! They showed up early and were very professional and friendly. I had a bit of a confusing move with furniture/​boxes going to multiple sites and they handled it with ease. Fred and Moses were very experienced movers and knew exactly how to handle/​move/​wrap furniture, etc. I was very happy with my experience and strongly recommend them. I’ll be back for my next move!

We highly recommend Mark and his staff. We had Thomas and Morris and they were very professional and respectful, not only of our property but us as well. We wish that we would have known about them earlier. We will definitely use them again for our future needs.

I highly recommend Mark and his team. They were very professional, showed up right on time, managed the move without any problem and were just nice guys. They truly made the move a piece of cake. Would definitely use them again without hesitation!

I have been using Mark Smith for years and highly recommend him and his team! He has always done a great job and has even made special accommodations. We moved so often that we couldn’t ask our family and friends anymore, so Mark took over!

I was referred to Steady Moves by Units in both the Bay Area and Sacramento! Mark and Moses got to my house early and assessed my house and how the furniture was going to go in the unit for storage and into a uhaul to my new place. They were very professional, speedy, and they took care of my furniture very well! I am very happy I’ve utilized them!
