Erkin's relocation service was great. I had to rearrange a bedroom with heavy future and they responded to my request the same day and scheduled the next day. They arrived on time and completed the job to satisfaction. Thank you for your service.

  Excellent service!
I was doing a long-distance relocation: SF - Miami. Found Erkin's on yelp, because they have the best reviews, and now I can tell why.
I needed my stuff shipped on very short notice. Erkin responded right away. We scheduled a FaceTime to see how much stuff I had to ship. Erkin called me perfectly on time. Erkin provided me with two options: do an individual truck (more expensive) or combine with other clients relocating to other states nearby, I didn't have a lot of stuff, so combining was a better and cheaper option for me. He made a few calls to other clients of his who were waiting to be combined, and in just half an hour called me back and said he was able to combine me with another client of his who's relocating to a nearby destination. He told me the price right away, flat fee, no extra costs, and I agreed. It was done on rather short notice, and I was very happy with a prompt confirmation! He also accommodated my condo building requirements.
On the day of the shipping, 3 guys came including Erkin (I only had 13 boxes packed + mattress +a few smaller things). They even did some packing of those loose items that I had, they put those in big boxes, and wrapped fragile stuff in blankets. They can/do packing, which is amazing, though most of my stuff was packed already. No extra costs, flat fee that we agreed upon.
The movers were very friendly, polite, well dressed, neat. Which is so rare to see. My stuff arrived on time. The movers were at the destination place one day earlier, but my loading dock was reserved on the day that we scheduled.
So Erkin's movers had to stay a night at the destination location to be able to deliver the shipping exactly on the day that the loading dock was available.
My new apt building is partially a hotel, and a reserved loading dock was a mess, as there were a bunch of other trucks doing unloading for the hotel. Erkin handled it very professionally! They did an excellent job of unloading my stuff in a totally crowded messy loading dock with elevators not being able to be locked. All items were delivered in great shape!
I'll be honest, Erkin's service is not cheap, but it's totally worth every penny! Seamless, stressless experience!

  Fantastic experience! We moved from the Bay Area to Nevada City and the guys worked so hard and they are fast! Also very professional. I just gave my realtor their info for her other clients.

  Great service, very prompt and moved all my furniture very carefull. I highly recommend Erkins relocation service very professional team

  Extremely responsive, professional, careful with items and  very nice.  Their energy is positive and they work with a smile even when moving heavy items. They are crazy efficient and move with such speed and coordination-if you blink you may miss this awesome service.  I will recommend them to all of my friends, family and anyone I hear needs their services!!!

I am so happy I found them!

  This service is trust worthy. They are flexible to your need. Definitely worth looking into,
calling them & having a conversation about your plan.  We recommend!!!!  Thumbs up for accommodating the client

  Look no further and just call these guys to take care of your packing and moving....yes I said PACKING and moving!!!!  This is a long review but there are so many reasons why and I want to share it with you all.

We were doing a long distance move from San Francisco to San Diego (500+ miles) and was dreading it since it was during the height of moving season and had to do in less than 30 days.  Most companies would require a much further advance booking for a long distance move.  I got my quote on July 4th weekend and had our move done on July 30th!

Needless to say I had 4 quotes total but I decided to go with Erkin for many reasons:
1. He showed up very promptly as promised and very professional.  He came in a suit and dress shoes, never would I think of an estimator for moving would show up in a suit.  He even had a masked on and asked me if I'm comfortable with him taking it (since he's fully vaccinated).  I thought that was very considerate of him.
2.  He started with assessing the parking situation (anticipation for the moving truck). Access to the building and elevators.  He asked all the questions that the other vendors never even asked me so I knew this guy meant business.
3. He did the tour of the our unit and he was very quick and thorough.  My baby was napping upstairs so he was very respectful of not disturbing her.  At the same time my 5 yo son decided to ask him a million of questions about moving his legos.  Erkin was very sweet and took the time to answer address my son's concerns about his legos and how they will take care of it.  It was to the point where my son invited him to come back and play legos with him, since Erkin said that he's busy today and can't stay to play.
4.  He was very realistic about how long it will take  and man power.  I mentioned to him that my HOA requires a certificate of insurance (COI) in order for me to lock in the moving date with the building (it's crazy but my building only allows 1 move per day).
5.  He told me that he will have a quote back to me later that evening or the next day.  Right after he left I told my husband "I think I found our movers.  I really like him from the minute I spoke to him on the phone to meeting him in person." I received my quote later that night and boy were we surprised how REASONABLE they were.  Not only that but he even attached the COI, which definitely shows me that he listened and paid attention to everything I had said.
6.  During his walk through he had mentioned that his crew will do all the packing.  But I told him  that I was planning on doing that myself.  He said that's fine but in his experience when his crew shows up most ppl are not fully packed or did not pack properly so they just include the packing in their service.
7.  They came two days before my move date to pack our belongings.  I thought maybe 2-4 packers were going to come pack up our 1400sq ft place.  An entourage of 11 guys showed up...yes eleven guys.  They were so efficient and quick that they packed our entire place up in 3 hours!!!!!!
8.  I sent my husband to go pick up some pizzas for them.  Erkin was grateful but said that he was taking all his guys out to eat at a sit down restaurant since they all like different stuff and eat pretty healthy.  That right there tells me what kind of person he is.  
9. Move day - They arrive on time as planned and this time with 12 guys.  They moved all of our stuff out of our unit and into the moving truck in 2 hours.   Super efficient.
10. We flew down to San Diego to meet the movers the next morning to receive our stuff.  There were four guys unload the entire truck and as usual super duper fast and efficient.

I can't thank Erkin and his crew enough on how seamless they made this move from the communication from beginning to end.  He always reached out to me to inform and updated me on what was going on.  Before the packing and moving he called to make sure we were still on track and had the time and dates down.  After the packing he let me know they were leaving the bay and starting their commute.  After the move he checked in again to see how everything went.

I would highly recommend Erkin and his crew for all moves.  They do cross country as well.  We don't plan on moving again for a long time but I will definitely recommend them to everyone that I know!

  Highly recommended, hard working and extremely quick moving guys. Big thanks to Alexander for all the help. Would recommend!

  For our Bay Area to Portland move, we made the mistake of responding to a moving broker ad, and all of a sudden we were getting tons of calls, texts, and emails from all over the country promising impossible rates and great service. But when we dug into these companies, there was a lot of fine print about how they load your stuff onto a shared truck, delivery dates were not promised, and final date would be based on cobbling together a bunch of moves, so you might be first or last, depending on how they string the drop-offs together. Looking closer, there were sketchy reviews for some of them.

So we checked out some Bay Area companies next, and got video walkthrough bids for three of them, all were higher than the broker referrals, but we were glad to be dealing with legit local companies. I ended up talking to Erkin, and felt immediately like this was the company for us.

We agreed on the price (he lowered it to match the lowest of the three), then we got ready for the move coming up in about 3 weeks. We packed about 95% ourselves, except items such as an elliptical machine and some big furniture. His crew of 4 arrived and took great care in loading and tying down everything, wrapping blankets around all the fragile items.

Erkin himself drove the truck up to Portland, and brought on 4 local movers there from his network of contacts. It was nice to have the owner himself involved on both sides. Again they were very careful and worked hard for many hours bringing items to various rooms and up and down stairs. At the end, he asked me to walk through to make sure all was correct, and his guys moved a few items before leaving.

It was a great move done by friendly professionals. I felt low stress about it all due to Erkin's professional demeanor and him returning my texts quickly.

The only casualties were a few potted plants, which I had placed in a laundry basket at the last minute, I blame myself for not packing them better.

I highly recommend Erkin's for your next move!

  All good, until there's a problem. Then don't expect to ever hear from him again.
I relocated from Oakland to Las Vegas. I sourced several companies for Direct/Non-Broker State to State, and found Erkin to be local, a good value, and responsive.
The 4-man crew showed up [late] on a Sunday, with a Monday mid-day delivery. I was supposed to be the only customer.
The 2-man crew didn't show up until 7:30pm, saying there was traffic. But the truck had someone else's property in it, telling me they double booked and did that job before arriving to my home. So I had to help them unload to get it done by 10:30.
Property was damaged, and Erkin took weeks to respond to my claim, saying he'd been injured.
Then, when we finally connected, he said he would Venmo me the cost of the damaged property. I never heard from him again after daily attempts to contact.
Stay far away and go with another company.
UPDATE: After weeks of no contact I finally heard from Erkin - 3 hours after posting this review. He starts the phone call by yelling at me, and even provided proof that he's been receiving my messages but willingly chose not to respond. Ridiculous.

  Very professional guys who helped us with packaging and loading stuff to container. Nothing has lost or damaged. Every even little tiny things were accurately placed next to others so we were able to stuck all our furniture, gym equipment, and other household stuff into 16ft container. Also both guys speak plenty of languages: Kyrgyz, Russian, English, French, Arabic.
Highly recommended this moving company!

  Stas and Jose did an amazing job with our move! They were prompt and fast with pick up and drop off while taking great care of all our stuff (including my prize possession a 6ft+ fiddle leaf fig tree) As for moving during covid times, they wore masks the whole time and took care to maintain covid protocol. This our first time using a moving company so had no idea what to expect and we are so happy to have found Erkin's company - definitely recommend this team!

  Erkin's did a great job picking up some flooring from a local business and bringing it into my living room.  Couldn't have asked for better work.

  Amazing moving company! My husband and I are pretty frugal, have never used movers before, and were initially planning on doing the long-distance move from NorCal to SoCal ourselves with maybe hired help or two for loading. Fortunately/unfortunately we discovered that uhaul doesn't let you know if a moving truck is available until 24hours before you need it?! We started looking for an affordable mover and are so happy we found Erkin through a friend's recommendation! He offered the best rates for a long-distance move and takes great pride in his work. Looking back, we are so happy we didn't attempt to do this move on our own.

We live in a 3 story townhouse so props to the team for dealing with all those stairs and tight corners! We moved on a Friday. Erkin and his team showed up in the morning and quickly started protecting and moving items downstairs. The team of 4 finished loading our 2 bedroom house in less than 4 hours. We met the team the following day in SoCal at our storage unit where they unloaded everything into storage in under 2 hours with just 2 people!

Erkin and his team were very professional and followed all COVID safety precautions. Super hard-working and strong people!

I would 100% recommend him and I definitely plan on using his team again (he has a SoCal team too) when I move out of my storage unit and into my future house! Thank you Erkin!

  We recently moved from CA to NV and Erkin and his team made the experience unforgettable, easy and super smooth!
First, he personally came to walk through our house and provide a quote based on the scope of the job. He provided an hourly option as well as a flat rate which was unique from the other companies we considered. His and his teams professionalism and COVID-19 safety precautions were top notch. Very hard working individuals that executed our big move seamlessly.
I would 100% use his services again and refer this company to anyone. Very impressed and satisfied with our experience. Thank you Erkin and team!

  Erkin got me through a nightmare moving situation. My moving plans suddenly fell through, and he was able to move me from Oakland to Portland (normally a 10 hour drive) with four days notice.

But what made it especially challenging was that the PNW had an ice storm that weekend, and part of Portland still had no power. Erkin had trouble getting a hotel (because locals without power filled them) and was running on about four hours of sleep when he arrived in a truck.

I'm super thankful to be in my new home now and have all that stress behind me, all thanks to Erkin's professionalism. Thanks Erkin!

  TL;DR: I wish I could give 4.5 stars because my fantastic experience would have been perfect if a few things were improved. Erkin's is a "family-run" business that provides excellent value, and are a an absolute joy to work with.

My move needed to happen on short notice (3 days later, on a Saturday afternoon), during what seems to be moving season in SF. Erkin either had a cancellation, or was serendipitously available that afternoon. I'm thankful for this! He promptly responded to calls and texts with respect to scheduling and insurance details for my building.

The crew arrived about an hour and half later than the planned 12 PM. I was admittedly upset, but figured we'd make it work, since all of my belongings were already boxed up.

Despite me considering myself an organized minimalist, I managed to fill up their 16 ft truck. Ethan and Gaby worked in lockstep to load up my belongings into the truck in 2 hours, which had to be parked down a slope. Extra work out, yay!

We show up to my new residence where another tenant's move was going well over time. Ethan maintained a cool head and offered to pause the clock and take a break. So thankful for this, too! As we were approaching the building's no-move time policy, Ethan decided to call in additional help - David arrived and sped up the offloading process. I was not charged for a 3rd person, yet again thankful!

Yes, they nicked a leg on my handmade sofa and had to bend my rug at some point, but this is to be expected during a move.

Areas of improvement:
1) I wish the crew had arrived on time.
2) I wish the crew was a tad bit more efficient
3) I wish the crew's equipment was a bit more sturdy - it would have helped with #2

What I think happened was that Erkin's had an earlier engagement that went over. The crew was exhausted from the move and therefore had to move a bit slower. But given the delays at my destination, it all worked out.

Overall, despite the move taking slightly longer than I had anticipated, during these trying times, I'm more than happy to compensate for what it undoubtedly an essential service. Everyone was extremely personable, honest, and accommodating, and I couldn't ask for anything else. Thank you Erkin, Ethan, Gaby and David!

  Great moving company. They will pick up and deliver your furniture without any dents or any other issues. The most hard-working people that I've ever met. Love the quality and business they provide!
They picked up stuff from the pod and moved it to my house. They were on time, super reliable and wrapped anything that is fragile and took their time to make sure nothing is damaged. They're also very reasonable and I highly recommend them.

  We all know living in the Bay Area is full of challenges. Being a long time resident I know for the fact that moving from one apartment to another is part of the game that we gotta deal time to time. I have moved a lot (unfortunately) and hiring movers has always been most dreaded task for me until I found Erkin's relocation service. I couldn't ask for better crew. Here is why:
On the day of the move Erkin and his helper arrived right on time. Both of them wear masks and other protections from Covid, they strictly take all the precautionary measures during the work. Once they showed up they immediately started working on my move saving my time and money. During the process they were very careful with my furnitures, boxes and other stuff. All the furnitures were thoroughly wrapped up before taken out. They had all needed tools starting from electrical screw driver all the way to moving dollies and wardrobe boxes that made the move pretty smooth and quick. Some furnitures had to be taken apart as they were too big to move. I also had baby crib which I thought needed to be disassembled, but after speaking with Erkin I was told that it would take for them at least 20-30 minutes to disassemble and reassemble in the new apartment. Erkin with his helper strapped, took it out of the window and put it down to the first floor. Instead of 30 minutes they spent only 3 minutes. This shows how professional they are. Overall I'm fully satisfied with their job and highly recommend them for everyone.

  Erkin moved us from NorCal to SoCal in ONE day. He was the only mover I called that was able to do a same-day NorCal to SoCal move. With all the other moving companies, we would've had to wait anywhere from 3-14 days to get all our stuff. Pricing was significantly better than any other company we received a quote from as well. Overall, a successful move -- everything made it down same day and nothing broke!

Moving day was one of the longest and most exhausting days of our lives, but Erkin had a great attitude and remained in good spirits all day, even when he was unloading our stuff pretty late in the night. We started the day in San Francisco around 9AM and finished loading all our stuff into the truck by 1PM. While we already had most of our stuff packed into boxes, Erkin's team provided all materials needed to wrap our furniture and TV. He also provided larger boxes for random odds and ends that we couldn't fit into our own moving boxes, and wardrobe boxes for our clothes.

Erkin and his crew then took a lunch break and left SF around 2PM. Since he was driving the big moving truck, he had to drive slower and made it down to Orange County by about 11PM, then spent the next two hours unloading all our stuff and reassembling furniture. It was such a long day, we definitely couldn't have done it ourselves, so we are very grateful to Erkin and his team.

Just a few pieces of constructive feedback: (1) The SoCal team that helped unload did not wear masks -- not even while in the elevator with my boyfriend and they kept trying to make conversation with us. I understand that it is difficult to wear a mask while doing heavy lifting, but I would've appreciated if they had at least put on masks before talking to us or getting in the elevator. To be fair, Erkin and the SF crew wore masks whenever they'd have to be in close proximity with us or talk to us, so it's just the SoCal team that I had an issue with (and they may have been part of an affiliated moving company, not directly under Erkin's supervision).

(2) Erkin's initial time estimate for how long the move would take was a bit optimistic -- I think he initially said we'd be done by 9PM or so. Obviously we didn't make any other plans that day, but I would've appreciated a more accurate time estimate, and I think we could have started earlier in the day (like around 7AM) so we didn't have to be unloading the truck at 1AM. That said, I am VERY grateful that Erkin was willing to work so late at night to get our move done as promised. Thank you again, Erkin! We have already recommended Erkin to a few other friends who moved long distance during Covid and they have had great experiences as well.
