Mike/Mauricio and the team did an outstanding job for us.  We were so very worried about the rain but these guys and the team took care of everything!!!  They were very professional and by the end of the day...felt as though we made new friendships.  They protected the floor/the stairwell, and each and every piece of furniture.   They worked so well with each other and we were completely satisfied with the entire experience.  Thank you to each and every one of you!!!

Shout out to Safe Way Moving for making our move completely hassle and pin free. Cody, Mike and Eric were amazing. They are pros and extremely good at their job. They did such an amazing job that my wife and I could not believe the move was over in such a short amount of time. They protected all our stuff with packing material and blankets. They were also very careful with unloading the furniture at the new place! Not a single mark left on the floor, wall, etc. Thank you guys!

Also shout out to Roy, the manager, for laying out the details ahead of time and giving accurate time and price estimates.

Would highly recommend!

I recently used SafeWay Moving Company for my relocation, and I couldn't be happier with their service. From start to finish, they were professional, efficient, and careful with my belongings. The team arrived on time, handled everything with care, and completed the move within the estimated timeframe. Their rates were also reasonable, making the whole experience stress-free. I highly recommend SafeWay Moving Company to anyone in need of a reliable and top-notch moving service.

SCAM!!! - I’m sorry SafeWay of Lake Forest, CA, but there is a company out of Fort Lauderdale, Florida that is using your name to swindle people. Unfortunately, this 1-star review serves to direct people away from them when looking at your reviews and site. You should get in contact with them and try to fight them on the rights to the name.

This was my experience with the SafeWay of out of Fort Lauderdale:

SCAM!!! - If this is the first and only thing you read in your search, I hope it's a deciding factor not to go with them. I’ll start with the scary stuff first - things almost went legal with lawyers, and I ended up paying $550 more than what I was quoted, and this was after intense and extremely unpleasant negotiations. I’ll start here with the fact that they aren’t Safeway Moving based out of Lake Forest, CA. That Safeway actually has good reviews, and this one, based out of Fort Lauderdale, Florida, hides behind this good company.

This horrible Safeway overcharged me an exorbitant amount for services I didn’t need. Even though before signing the contact I had reviewed the specs with salesman in meticulous detail, on pick up, they still tried to charge me >$500 for long carry fees and extra packaging fees. I got them down to $150.

On drop off, they insisted on charging me $400 for the shuttle service, as they said their 18-wheeler truck could not fit near my new complex. I had them get on the phone with the complex twice, who insisted both times that they would be fine to bring their truck directly to the site. After multiple hours of heated conversation on the phone (my time wasted), they threatened to bring their lawyers in if I didn’t go with their shuttle service or sign away on liability for their truck (like I would take on the risk of paying whatever damages their truck endures [both past and present]).

They launched personal attacks, branding me as the issue and resorting to manipulative sales tactics. When I finally relented to paying the $400, they were as sweet as pie and the mention of lawyers disappeared. Don't fall for their tricks. Let's support ethical businesses and hold the moving industry accountable. Spread the word to protect others from similar experiences.

Provided friendly and efficient service with care for our belongings.  We've lived through a number of corporate moves and throughout the country over 20+ years. This is our first experience at hiring movers ourselves and this was a positive experience.

Safeway Moving handled our move from CT. The crew: Mussa, Damir and Sergei, were professional, pleasant and easy to interact with. They worked efficiently and provided full packing services. They arrived on time and got the entire job done with in their planned time schedule. Everything was explained and confirmed. Would recommend using them again in the future!

After reading all these reviews, I decided to hire this company although another professional moving/packing company has given a quote at nearly half the price of what these guys charged me. On the day of the move, they came, packed everything, and stored it in their vault for 1 week. When they dropped off our stuff at our new home, we were shocked to find the state of things. Instead of neatly packing the items, they literally jammed all of our belongings into boxes, resulting in certain items like figurines being broken. On the boxes themselves, instead of neatly labelling what is going into each box, they just generically labeled it from what room they retrieved that item. Our new Nutri bullet parts are lost. They stuffed the top into one box and lost the base. Now I have to discard my Nutri Bullet and buy another one. And they call themselves “professional packers”? Reading all these stellar reviews, I took a loan from my friend to pay for these guys since our finances were already constrained due to the purchase of our new home. Now I am left with two grand in debt and missing/broken belongings.

Safe Way Moving should have a 10 star rating. 5 just does not exemplify, the quality and service they provide.
I have moved many times , and tried to overlook the past movers sloppy ways and lack of concern.
Well, Safe way moved me last week. They were on time , drove a nice  , new clean truck , with all the equipment needed neatly in the truck.
The 4 guys were polite and friendly , and seemed to enjoy their work. All furniture wrapped carefully.
This is the best part, when I got to my new house, not only had they unloaded everything, they placed my furniture in each room as if I already lived there. Tv was on TV cabinet facing my couch. Chairs around dining room table AND my clothes were hanging in my closets!
I have never ever seen anything like it. Pro’s

Amazing!!!! Yes, I just called a moving experience amazing you guys are fantastic.

Moving isn't fun for two senior citizens.  HOWEVER, thanks to our awesome Safe-Way moving team, Mike M, Mike R, Eric R, Scott and Paul, it was a FUN, STRESS FREE experience.  Everything was moved with care and efficiency.  They even provided much appreciated suggestions for furniture placement.  Thanks to Roy Marquez for his suggestion to load one day and unload the next. This saved us money for our 60 mile move from OC to LA.  Also 3-cheers for Rayne in the front office for her kind support.  Sending a BIG THANK YOU HUG to everyone at Safe-Way Moving.  You're the BEST!
