Bay Park Movers did a wonderful job helping us move to our new apartment. They showed up right on time and made the whole move stress free. We really appreciate how careful they were moving our items. We had four guys (Lopez, Abe, Jerry, and Dsue) and all of them were excellent. They cleaned up after themselves which was also appreciated. Highly recommend these movers. We will definitely be using them again.

I tried to hire Bay Park Moving, but after speaking with the sales representative I decided to look somewhere else. Susan was very rude from the moment I told her I had a coupon that I received in the mail. When I asked about a specific date, she said they were only available in the afternoon which I had no problem, but she made it seem like it was not worth it and recommended another date in the morning.
When I asked her to send me the contract for the new date in the morning she was VERY RUDE. She said she was not going to send me the contract unless I was sure I needed that date. She said she didn't want to reserve the day for me and then have to cancel. I told her that I was trying to hire them, that I needed to move out that date, but in her mind, I was not worth her time or effort. You deserve less than 1 star. Great job Susan! Btw, they charge you for fuel and for the time it takes them to drive to point B.

I used this moving company twice in 2020 and 2021 based on a recommendation from another realtor in my office. The 2nd move was a disaster. They showed up late with only 3 guys, my contract stated 6 guys. One guy used my toilet without asking and made the house so stinky. The other guy was slamming furniture and broke my nice glass table without any apologies.
It was supposed to be a one day move but due to lack of people, they had to do a second move the following day. The next day the owner Doug showed up and promised me he will replace the broken table, long story short, he only paid me half which really upset me. The customer service went bad. I was very disappointed and frustrated. On the first move in 2020, it was great.
They showed up on time, very careful, nothing broke and finished quickly that's why I used them again this year but after my second experience with them, I won't use this company again nor recommend to my colleagues and clients.

BUYER BEWARE! One star is not a low enough rating for Bay Park Moving. This is the first time that I hired "professional" packers/movers for a residential move, and what I experienced was upsetting, stressful, very costly on many fronts, and frankly shocking. I am particularly horrified as I selected this company based on a referral from family members that used Bay Pay Moving several years ago.
There are too many disturbing details to describe herein, but I will summarize key facts. If you have read this far, PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. If you want to know why, please read on. Prior to the move, the Company President and owner, Doug Hackley, SAID multiple times that their company considers and handles everything as if it were fragile.
Below is a description of what they DID. This is a listing of damaged items (including descriptions of the damage): 1) Expensive, unique, antique floor lamp (smashed glass column such that several large chucks of glass were broken off, socket and switch were broken off the base, dented pole, made lamp nonfunctional); 2) Vintage wood nightstand (chipped left front top and bottom and several scrapes on right side); 3) 5-shelf bookcase (Broke chunk out of the front right leg); 4) 2 Glass teapots (smashed infuser to pieces on one and chipped the spout on the other); 5) Metal frame for glass dining room table (chipped the top of one side); 6) 6-drawer wood dresser (multiple gashes on one side); 7) Leather and chrome La-Z-Boy recliner/rocker chair (leather scraped off a section in the middle of one side and off both square top corners); 8) Large one-of-a kind artwork (multiple corners dented and damaged); 9) Woven basket (caused unravelling because was packed unprotected under other items); 10) Straw hat (rim damaged due to packing); 11) Long-spout ceramic art/glaze pouring pitcher (the only thing I found was the broken off spout [in 3 pieces] in a box packed by Erik); 12) New, unused, still in package high-density art foam pad (completely dented and rendered unusable because Erik packed it at the bottom of a large box, with multiple heavy art items stacked on top of it); 13) New, unused, still in package regular-density art foam pad (completely dented and rendered unusable because Erik packed it in the middle of a large box, with multiple heavy art items stacked on top of it); 14) 6 hangers (broken into numerous pieces); 15) 1 wooden bookcase plug (lost).
My 2 glass teapots were discovered in 2 different boxes that were packed by Junior, using my boxes. The teapot with the infuser that was smashed into pieces was in a box that had no labeling on it at all, and had been loosely packed only using paper. The box in which I found my other glass teapot with the chipped spout was labeled, "dishes from wood shelf" in Junior's handwriting.
Although I showed Doug, in person, both my damaged teapots and the boxes in which they had been packed, in his first letter he said that the ".packer's state they did not pack, you packed." Doug revealed to me that my antique floor lamp was broken before the movers had left the house from where I was moving. NO VINTAGE LIGHTING EXPERTS HAVE EVER SEEN A LAMP WITH MY DESIGN.
I have contacted experts, glass manufacturers, and glass artists around the globe and no one can replace or exactly replicate the smashed glass piece on my antique floor lamp, so what they broke is irreplaceable. On moving day, I witnessed Donnie roughly flipping up the shelves on a wood shelf causing wooden plugs to fly around the room. When I asked him what he was doing, he made a rude, inappropriate comment and Erik, the "supervisor, " then told him to wrap the whole unit in plastic.
Here are the reasons, as written in final letter from Doug, for denying some of my claims. My claim for the damage to my La-Z-Boy chair was denied ".as the alleged damage you indicated in your pictures appear to be from normal wear and tear.". Leather scraped off a section in the middle of one side and off both square top corners of a chair is not normal wear and tear, and that damage was not present until after my chair was handled by Bay Park Moving movers.
The claims to my 2 pieces of art foam were denied because ".they both appear to be in the original wrapper and any indentations would not have occurred by being packed, it appears to be from years of having something placed on it. Also, there was nothing to be seen for the plastic pitcher you allege was damaged. You.showed a pitcher of just that in the bottom which would never be the case on a box that was packed by Bay Park Moving.
We always use unprinted news print in our packing and there was none to be seen and you said it was by itself in a bottom of a box, does not sound like a box packed by Bay Park Moving." My pictures had included ones of the only pitcher remains found in the bottom of a box Erik packed (i.e., the broken off spout [in 3 pieces]) and of Erik's handwriting on the outside of that box.

I've moved many times and this is by far the best moving company. Doug and his crews are fabulous! Eric and Victor take very good care of my belongings-making sure everything gets packed and delivered safely. This is a small company so they treat you like family. I highly recommend this moving company.

Our brand new flat screen tv got busted during the move and they haven't reimbursed us, giving us the run around about it. I understand it is hard to take a loss for the business especially during these times but they aren't being honest and lost our trust. I wouldn't recommend them or use them again. Also in our old home we moved out of, they scratched the floor so bad!
Feel bad for the new owners with that blight on their wood floor. If Bay Park moving owner Doug cares to make this right, I will happily amend this review as the rest of the job was pretty good. Nothing is perfect and I don't have unrealistic expectations.

BEST MOVING COMPANY EVER! We received a flyer in the mail and it seemed like too good of a deal to pass up, especially since we needed to move out of our current condo and take our stuff to storage. They guys that came (Junior, Abraham, and Keoki) were amazing and super professional. They came to our condo and were all business. They wrapped up our stuff and loaded it on to their truck safely and quickly.
I was shocked how fast they did everything. When we got to our storage unit, not only did they unload the truck and put our stuff in our storage unit, they even organized everything. I was honestly shocked, but so thankful they did this. From the time they showed up to our condo to the time they left our storage unit, it was 3 hours. THREE HOURS! If I did it myself it would have taken me 3 days!
I am so thankful for these guys, they did a fantastic job. I know they are just a moving company but they exceeded my expectations. Junior also is the man, wanted to give him an individual shout out If you need a service to help move you out of your house, THIS IS IT! They run deals all the time so make sure you ask if you need to use them

Call this place with a coupon for $110/hr for 3 mans to help with 2 hours minimum. When this mans come to help on day of move, they bring 1 more mans and charge me for this mans. This mans then try to make me pay more than $450 for time to move. Time to move was no even 2 hours but i pay this minimum. This no honest place. They do this bait and pay more thing to me. I no recomund this mans. But i give 2 star for movers be nice persons.

I found the Bay Park Moving flyer in my mailbox and was a little skeptical but overall so happy with my local move. I am not sure why they have bad reviews. The team was prompt, incredibly fast and friendly, which I appreciated. On top of that, it was the most affordable (local) move I've done. Would definitely use them again.

They just moved us. beginning of Covid. We were worried we would not be able to get back to our house. Doug made it happen and we are home. As they were getting busier, because no one knew if they would be shut down or not, Doug put a 6 man team on our job and got us moved in 3 hours. AWESOME! I have used them for 2 office moves and 2 home moves. Each time they have been great. On time. Fast. No BS. These guys work it. No issues. Thank you team.

Don't ever use them! They have gone downhill. I'm a single mom who didn't have a man around to stand up to this guy. Doug will rip you off quote you one price then when the movers show up its a totally different price so I couldn't tip the movers as much as I had planned. The movers used my brand new bathroom that I hadn't even used and got pee all over the toilet and the floor. Then they dropped my couch in the mud and refused to clean it. Horrible.

I have used Bay Park Moving twice in the past 2 weeks. I can't say enough about this moving company. I was referred to them through my realtor, Jeannie, and I could not have been happier with their service. I had 2 different teams (Victor, Junior and Daniel the first move, and Joe, Junior and one other that I'm blanking on his name- sorry!).
Both experiences were 5 star. They show up on time, work hard, are respectful, professional, happy, and so VERY careful with the furniture. We moved on to a boat - so it wasn't an easy move, and they were simply fantastic! If you are in need of movers, you have found them here!

I am so happy to have chosen Bay Park Moving! Doug and his crew were professional, courteous, and fast! They made our move from a 3 story apartment with no elevator a breeze. Stress and hassle free, they made sure we were well taken care of. They took apart our bed and furniture as well as reassemble when we were at our house. Hands down the best moving company in San Diego! Thank you so much Doug for your help!

It's too bad people are more likely to leave bad reviews than good ones. This is why Yelp is terrible for business. That being said, these guys were perfect. Showed up on time, in the rain, and got everything from point A to B. They're also cheaper than everyone else we came across. What else do you need? People complain too much.

The only reason I am giving this company 2 stars is because of the AMAZING job the movers themselves did. They were very polite, hard working and did a great job taking care of our things. The night before they were supposed to show up I got a text saying they wouldn't be able to make it till around 10-11 the next morning instead of 8:30 AM which had been scheduled for a couple weeks.
The client from the day before had issues and they could not unload their trucks. OK. not ideal but not that far off. The next morning around 11 AM I got a call- they had just started to unload their trucks from the previous clients- he would give me an update in 1 hour with the new time of arrival. They didn't show up to our place until around 4:30 PM after us reaching out for updates multiple times and not being given a straight answer on timing.
We were supposed to be up in Orange County that evening for dinner and to be ready for an early Friday the next the morning. So the timing was extremely important which they new about. They finished the move at about 9:30 PM- and I was so relieved it was done! Now the part that really irritated me- Doug had said we would get a discount for the EXTREME DELAY.
Not only did they NOT give us a discount- they charged us for extra men that we did not agree on! Charging us an extra $200 for "men working" that I never saw working. I feel terribly I couldn't give a good review for the movers themselves who I would use again in an instant if they weren't with this company. I feel very taken advantage of and when I reached out to Doug (since he wasn't there at the end) I never got a response back.

Doug the owner has really changed. I used this company 2 times before about 4 years ago. I decided to use them again since I got good service in the past. If you've read this far, DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. If you want to know why, read on. The person answering to the phone has no authority and can't answer any questions or schedule anything. Doug and his office screwed up the insurance paperwork for my office building and kept loosing it.
As things were constantly screwed up, Doug would blame his office and the person on the phone would blame him. Hello! You own the company Doug and YOU SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR EVERYTHING. He strung me on for three weeks and kept saying he could do the job and would get it set up but never did. I explained that I had a lease and needed to move by a particular day but he never got it scheduled.
He did call me one day in the three week period and said he could move it right NOW. Never mind that he didn't get the proper paper work into the office building to do the move. When we were down to the last couple days to move he randomly showed up at my office and then was belligerent with my secretary when she explained I was in a meeting. I had to hire an entirely different company at the last minute Save your yourself time and hassle and DO NOT HIRE THIS COMPANY.
