Walsh Moving & Storage has operated out of the same warehouse in Torrance for over 50 years. More recently, the company added a second warehouse in Long Beach, CA. Walsh will move you anywhere but specializes in local moves in Los Angeles and Orange Counties. From our modest beginnings as a small local moving business with a single truck, we've expanded to two locations in Southern California: Torrance and Long Beach. We've grown into a much bigger local moving company with a fleet of trucks and a storage warehouses.
The Walsh primary local service area includes cities within 40 miles of Torrance and Long Beach. We serve all of Southern California and will deliver anywhere in the United States, but most of our local moves are within the highlighted area. As long as your move begins or ends within 40 miles or so of our warehouses and covers a short distance, you're in our local service hotspot: Los Angeles and Orange Counties, and parts of Riverside and San Bernardino Counties.There's a minimum commitment of three hours per trip, calculated from the time we leave the warehouse until we return to the warehouse.

They were much better 4 years ago when we used them. Don't know if it's a staffing issue due to covid or what but they gave my wife a hard time. They didn't even have enough room on the truck because they had to drop stuff off after our appointment. Always talked highly of these guys, not so much now.

Just experienced one of the most unprofessional experiences with this company. The Owner and the drivers don't care about laws of the road or others safety. The driver literally pulled out in a diesel front of me, no respect, and refused to move his truck. The Owner came out and said glad I have my coffee because we will sit here all day if you don't move. Four employees came out in total and all were very aggressive. People with this attitude should not drive these trucks.

The actual moving service was good, but the price is outrageous. The customer service support was unfriendly. I called to ask about extra hours from Molly and was quoted a wrong rate and poor customer service. When the service was completed, I was shock to see the final bill amount. I called to confirm the price, Molly wasn't there, a man replied with care less attitude when I told him the rate that was quoted by Molly. As I mentioned earlier, this rating is for the price and phone customer support. The two movers worked really hard (Larry & his buddy)

We were having trouble finding a moving/storage company during August. Finally I asked a friendly man from a nationwide company for a referral and he sent me to Walsh Moving, a local company. So glad I found this company. Thomas accommodated our needs re: picking up half and storing, then picking up the rest and delivering up north. His crew was friendly, professional, and careful with our belongings. I highly recommend this company.

I hired Walsh to handle a rather complicated local move that involved three different locations and furniture / boxes pick up and drop off at each location. Walsh sent us a fantastic team -- Manny, Eric, and Sergio. They were the best! The team arrived at our first location on time and they were friendly, completely professional and thorough. They worked quickly but took no short cuts when it came to wrapping furniture pieces and packing the boxes in the truck!
We met them at the second location where they dropped some items off and picked up another large load to continue to the long term storage unit we had arranged. These three men were so willing to do whatever it took and they were swift yet so willing to put the items into the storage unit the way in which helped me organize the boxes and items. I can't recommend this company enough!
I worked with Forrest to make the arrangements and he also did an outstanding job setting us up with the right number of men for our job. If we ever do another move, I'll call Walsh and ask for Manny, Sergio and Eric again. They did such an outstanding job! Bravo!

Moving and choosing a company to facilitate the move can be challenging. But Walsh made it easy. They gave us a fair price, offered a discount for cash, showed up on time and delivered in every way. Their men were amazing. Ritchie, Joe, Alvin, Sergio, Nick and Larry did an incredible job of ensuring all our belongings, including antiques and lots of glass items were loaded and unloaded safely without any breakage or losses.
They delivered two trucks to our new desert home in over 108 degree temperatures and insisted on doing it all to ensure I only watched and instructed where things go. At 75, that was very much appreciated. At the end, we gave each man a very healthy gratuity as they earned it. I later called Tom and lauded his company, the men and their work ethic.
I wholeheartedly recommend Walsh Moving. If you choose them, expect plenty of friendly banter among the men who chide each other on how much or little they are doing. It's all part of their routine to make a hard job more fun. In the end, we felt like they were a group of guy friends who simply came by to help us. Professional, caring, solid work ethic, and did a great job!
We did help by boxing everything except the plants. No loose items. They may not require it, but we wanted to make things smoother and more expeditious. We were ready when they came and on site at the new home before they delivered. Cold water bottles were provided to them as a courtesy and we tried to stay out of their way except to tell them where things went. Walsh delivered for us!

I can't say enough great things about the service we received from Walsh Moving & Storage. During a pandemic no less, I called them last minute (less than a week's notice) to get my daughter moved out of a 2nd floor apartment to a house. The movers were so friendly and professional. What I praise the most is that they kept their face masks on the entire time (7 hours) in 90 degree heat while dealing with very steep stairs! They were immaculately clean and efficient. They are fairly priced and I think a good value. I Highly recommend them! Thank you Walsh Moving!

Just wanted to thank you again for working with me through that hot mess of a day with moving. Your guys were the best part of anything that happened yesterday. We ended up with a ridiculously large truck but it is all loaded and we are on our way. Really appreciate Allen, James and Alvin for their efficient, cheerful presence. They represent you well.
