Los Angeles → Bay Area

“Thunderhorse Movers & Packers was recommended by a close friend who has used them over 10+ years. They moved me from Los Angeles to the Bay area. Everything was seamless. Jorge was hands on and helped to add packers last minute to help me. Working with Joshua and Harold was great. The loading into the truck took less time than anticipated and they were able to connect me with someone locally to help with three extra days of unpacking and organizing. I would recommend them - they were reliable and they made everything easy.”

Santa Monica → San Francisco

“I recently moved from Santa Monica to San Francisco and Thunderhorse Moving made what could have been a chaotic process completely stress free. The team was fast, super efficient, and incredibly careful with all of my belongings not a single item was damaged. Moving long distance can be overwhelming, but their professional and positive attitude made the whole experience smooth and easy. I can’t recommend Thunderhorse Moving highly enough.”
