I moved with Walter's transfer recently and I cannot recommend them enough. A friend actually recommended them after having a good experience. They were so accommodating and helpful and made the very stressful process of moving so much easier. They were communicative throughout the whole thing and the movers did such a great job even with my larger and more difficult to move pieces. Mike was so helpful and guided me through the whole process and answered my (many, many) questions when he came to do an estimate. I highly recommend Walter's if you're looking for a good mover in LA!

If I could give them more than 5 stars, I would. They are efficient, friendly and super professional. Moving is such a hassle, but they made it a seamless transfer of goods. them.

Walter's overperformed and were the most reasonably priced movers we found. We had to move quickly (5 days), and I couldn't believe my good fortune when I called Mike Opus and he confirmed that they could facilitate packing and moving our home in that time. I asked for the A team and we definitely received it. Frank led his crew with grace, efficiency and patience. Everything arrived safely and quickly and we cannot speak highly enough of this choice for moving and organizational skillset. They didn't charge us for some extras and took the boxes away with them. Even though they worked a 13 hour day, all six of the team were vaccinated, wore masks, had good humor and made it happen.

We liked Mike and trusted him with our cross country move, out of Los Angeles. There were a few hiccups, as seems apparent in just about every business in these Covid-dominated times, but in the end we got our stuff--or at least most of it and what we were missing Mike very honorably replaced. That is no small thing--and we salute him for it as well as for the good nature and competence of almost all of the people who work for him directly.

DON'T USE THIS COMPANY! In 2019 this company moved me and stored my things in their so-called warehouse overnight, which I paid $120 plus for, because they moved me out one day and was supposed to move me in the next day - that's how we scheduled it. One of my large, specially marked boxes with over $7000 of brand new, never worn designer label clothes was stolen from their truck overnight in their locked warehouse.
I know damn well this was an inside job and my things were stolen by one of their workers and when I called the owner, Mike, multiple times to complain and ask him to investigate the theft, he was highly dismissive of me telling me my box "probably got taken to the dump site!" He claimed they didn't even have a camera system to monitor the truck where consumer's things are stored. I intend to pursue this matter legally!

Was one hour 13 minutes late, quoted me one price on the phone when they got here the price went up. They was not prepared, they did not have the tools to unhook my stove. They left 20 minutes before me and I still beat them to destination of my move. The dented up my brand new refrigerator. I had to call the gas company when I at my residence because the stove was hooked up wrong and gas was leaking which cost me more money.
The came highly recommended but I wish I would of never use them. My brand new refrigerator is ruined because of these people and the worker also didn't want to wear a mask especially how many people have died from COVID-19 we had to enforce the mask wearing policy. I suggest to use them not at all

The moving team did not disappoint for our move to a new single family home within Los Angeles. They were punctual, kind, worked hard, professional, and their experience really showed! No damage to our belongings. And they honored the original price that was quoted. With other moving companies in the past, we've had some pretty negative experiences. But that was not the case this time. Overall, a very pleasant experience, the way moving should be.
