I would highly recommend Shamrock to anyone who needs moving services and or storage! My husband and I moved out of San Francisco, and Shamrock moved and packaged our things, stored, and then eventually moved everything into our new East Bay home. Victor, Jose and one other gentlemen who's name I unfortunately didn't catch did both of our moves and they were professional, courteous, efficient and took great care with our things.
We worked with Helen to book our move/storage, and she was always very responsive and helpful. We will absolutely use them again for our next move. Thank you Shamrock for making our moves as easy as can be and painless!

Got recommendations from my HOA for them and decided to give it a try. They impressed me over the phone so even though they were the most expensive out of all, I decided to go with shamrock. And they didn't disappoint. Starting with Jose who came to do the estimate, he took maybe 10 minutes only but his assessment was so thorough and accurate! He was very helpful in giving me tips what to prioritize in packing and what not.
Prior to the day, Kim made sure I knew what I needed to do and patiently answered all my questions. On the move say, Victor, Alberto, Rigo and Jose showed up. They were awesome! My HOA is pretty strict and they are more familiar with all the rules than I am (well, I just moved in)- so that was very helpful especially knowing what to look for during pre- and post-move walk downs. As I unpack the boxes they packed, I am still amazed by their attention to details especially when they were packing the kitchen stuff, the breakables, etc. Yes, they are not cheap, but it's worth it! Another thing that is hard to find, they all seem to enjoy working for this company for years!

This review is a month overdue, but I made sure to do it because everything about Shamrock - from the initial communication through completion of the move - was wonderful. I communicated with Helen early on and I felt comfortable and confident about our decision to go with Shamrock. There are a lot of meh, or even fraudulent moving companies out there, so feeling like I could trust them was important.
And the team showed up RIGHT ON TIME. Also, once the team arrived (Victor, Alberto, Jose), they noted that we had more stuff than they were expecting, but they moved so quickly and so carefully - a very professional job. I hope we don't have to move again anytime soon, but when we do, Shamrock will be my go to 100%.

We have used Shamrock twice in the last year and both times were wonderful experiences! Victor and his team were efficient, careful, and respectful, especially for one of the moves that was extremely emotional for our family. We would not hesitate to use them again or refer them to others!

Shamrock Movers are the BEST! Victor and his crew did a flawless move for us. And Bobby Fallon, the owner, made accommodations to get our items out of storage to help us save another month's rent. Lisa was very knowledgeable on the phone, and always provided information in a very professional manner. I would only use Shamrock for any future moves. Everyone that I had contact with for this move exhibited professionalism and a very caring attitude.
