Jared and his assistant moved my grand piano down an asphalt driveway with no concern and delivered without a scratch. I'm a pro mover myself and called Jared to handle this for me -- Prompt, courteous journeymen! Not many true professional license holders out there still working. Jared has this integrity and is an asset to the trade.

Jared and his team did an outstanding job moving what started out to be a small move and turned into a bigger project. We needed to move a piano, but ended up having them help us with our entire move from Carpinteria to Pasadena. We ended up moving more than we had anticipated and Jared had the foresight to bring on an extra man to speed it up. I'd highly recommend Jared's and would definitely use them again!

Recently hired Jared's services for a move in town, his employees Zack and Pepe did a fantastic job! They were fast, efficient and we really appreciate the work they did for us. As we all know moving is stressful but with their help everything went smoothly. We would definitely use their services again!

I highly recommend Jared and his team. I needed to move my son's belongings from Santa Barbara to Colorado last week and the complicating factor was a rather old and very sentimental piano "with a past" that had already broken one of it's wheels. Jared and his team expertly loaded everything, especially the 3 wheeled piano from 1 storage locker into a moving van. I was so impressed I asked if they could combine our 2 storage lockers (which required moving yet another old and very heavy upright piano). They rearranged their schedule to do it the very next day. Day 2 also went great. I will hire them later this year for Day 3 to move that huge upright into it's next home. Jared and his team are experienced, quick, cheerful, careful, considerate, professional. It allowed me to actually enjoy the moving process. Jared also went out of his way to work out several options to help ease the cost of the Colorado move.

Jared was very helpful and prompt with our request for a relocation from Lompoc to Goleta. He sent 3 guys who were very helpful, efficient, fast and friendly. Sterling was the lead and kept checking in with us, did a couple of walk-throughs to ensure what was staying stayed, and to load everything that was coming with us. When they took a slightly longer lunch break, Sterling contacted me via text to provide us with an update and an ETA. Once they had off-loaded everything, they asked if they could help more by moving around boxes to specific rooms/areas. The price was also significantly lower than another bid. We most definitely will recommend their services to family and friends.

My husband Matt B. and I bought a house last year, and since we're planning to stay here for much or all of the rest of our lives, we decided to bring Matt's childhood piano from Santa Barbara to LA. I got on Google and looked up "santa barbara piano mover" and found Jared's Yelp page. He was exactly the guy I was looking for.

I called like the week before Christmas and was able to set up a move date for later in the week. Jared was super easy to deal with. He answered all my questions and had ready availability. He even coordinated things with my father-in-law, who had to let him in to get the piano in Santa Barbara. We scheduled the move for a Friday, but Jared called to reschedule because it was set to storm that day--bad for traffic, and bad for pianos. He didn't delay the move, but instead pushed it up to that Wednesday.

He didn't promise an arrival time, but he set off as promised at 9 in the morning, did the pick-up in Santa Barbara and came straight to LA, getting in around noon. He and his helper were warm and professional, and they had the piano set up in an hour. They also moved a couple pieces of furniture for us while they were at it, charging nothing above the extra time, which was minimal on both ends.

The move wasn't cheap--$325 for the piano, $130 an hour per hour of drive time, plus $40 for fuel/truck fees and a credit card charge added up to around $900--but it was nothing compared to the cost of a grand piano. That grand piano, by the way, is a Steinway bought in the '90s from Jared's father--I guess that was the family business for a while, and Matt's family has been in Santa Barbara since the '70s. This discovery, made by Jared and my father-in-law, filled me with warm fuzzies, and I was even happier that we found Jared. If you're looking to move a piano (or, you know, anything less complicated than a piano, which is pretty much anything) in or out of Santa Barbara, I can't recommend him enough.

Jared was able to get us into his schedule in less than a week.
When he arrived to survey our move and give us the bid, I was a bit shell-shocked at the amount; however, when his guys arrived, they went right to work and and did not stop until the job was complete. They were also easy to work with, personable and careful. The move went very smoothly and we would use them again!

Here's the bottom line: I would use Jared again in a flash! Feel free to trust him with everything you need!

Jared actually moved us this summer but I waited to review until I had unpacked most of my boxes so I could tell you that everything came through okay - it DID!! YAY.

The full the story: I have moved all over the country and several times overseas for ex-patriate assignments. I have moved to the house next door, across seas and between states. I've often had moves paid for, so it was a leap of faith to hire a small local business rather than have a big professional organization. My husband and I didn't make a selection on prices. We wanted the job well done. We hired Jared -who was in there with the rest of the group - because he came to our house more than once to truly understand what we needed and seemed to care about our situation.

The situation was this; we needed to be out of the house by 5 pm Wednesday (NOT negotiable, unfortunately) and we couldn't get into the new house until 10 am Thursday. ALSO, we had to be done moving by the end of Thursday because we were leaving on a trip first thing Friday morning. Since the move wasn't far from one house to the next, normally a moving company will use two trucks with a team at each place loading and unloading the trucks. It's very efficient! But that wasn't going to work because our stuff had to sit somewhere over night. Oh yea, and I wanted him to come a day early to help me pack anything we hadn't managed to pack until then. He had no idea if he was going to have to pack most of the house or 3 boxes.

Jared impressed me with his care to my request that timelines be respected fully and came up with several creative ideas to achieve that. As for customer service . . .I mean, who is flexible like that with letting me decide last minute what I want his team to pack?

Moving week came and Jared and his team arrived on time, ready and rearing to go! We got the move done on time AS requested. My stuff made it to the other side (as I've now confirmed) in the same condition as it left. The 2 or 3 tiny pieces of damage were immediately addressed and paid for by him - not after I had to fill in a bunch of paperwork but because he gave us a credit right away. (and don't let ANYONE kid you that you won't get damage in a move, they're blowing smoke up your skirt, it's a part of life). He even helped us set some stuff up that he didn't expect to, figuring out some tricky door situations & item assemblies for us.

The guys were so kind and so respectful, they felt like family after the first few hours! There was not a request I made that wasn't addressed promptly and with respect.

And then came the punch line; we had an estimate but what would it cost in the end? He could have come in at his quote and called it good. But he was honest; because of his advice on how to prepare, we ended up using less of his time/materials than we had planned. In the end, my bill was a healthy amount lower than what we had expected. WOW!

So if you want it done well, respectfully, timely and at a good price - call Jared.

I give Jared's Moving Services five stars and two bonus thumbs up for helping with a local move from one part of town to another. He was quick to respond and able to lineup the last minute help we needed to get the job done, and done fast!

It's easy to forget how tedious and exhausting moving is when you try to do it yourself. Don't even bother...Just call Jared!

Top quality service seasoned in the moving industry. Highly recommended Jared and his guys do things the right way thanks y'all!!!
