Thank you so much for the great service you and your company provided me on my move. I appreciate you holding my items for the delayed period and taking good care of them while they were in your possession. Everything arrived perfectly and in perfect condition.
Richard and the movers that he worked with on the Texas end to unload my items were extremely professional and a pleasure to work with. They were also extremely careful and cautious when driving the car down ...this was the first time I have ever shipped a vehicle anywhere and I'm glad i did it with your company.
Thank you for everything and please thank your Torrance team as well... Raymond, Sergio, Adonis, etc. I appreciate them all.
They were all very helpful to me during the process.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Chris C.Woodbridge, VA0201Apr 8, 2024
All I can say about Walsh Moving is quality quality quality!!! My mom had to move her household items from a storage unit to a new home. I called one company and they were completely unreliable and unresponsive. I called Walsh Moving and in the same day I got a quote (very reasonable) and a first available moving day for a day or two after my call. Walsh got me in when needed and moved all my mom's belongings. The crew that made the delivery was professional, courteous, clean and FAST! They shaved two hours off the original estimate and they put my mom's bed together. I cannot recommend this company enough. A true life saver. I wish I remembered the moving crew's names but they were great.

I was recommended Walsh on the Nextdoor app, and I can not say enough about how truly amazing my experience with Walsh was. Manuel and Lee showed up, ready to go and with a great attitude. I was a little disappointed that I ran out of boxes and also had way more boxes than I was quoted for. They immediately put me at ease and let me know they had everything they needed to get the job done - and an exceptional job is what they did! I had a horrible moving experience with another company a year ago, and this was the complete opposite. Manuel and Lee were punctual, efficient, and so friendly and kind. My husband and I were in awe by how quick they were while also taking such good care of all of our items, big and small. It was magic how they maneuvered everything, especially the cumbersome items, with ease. I highly recommend Walsh, and I'm so happy they helped us with our big move.

Our spectacular realtor recommended Walsh, which turned out to be the most fantastic moving company I've ever hired, out of the handful of companies I've used in the last several years. The Walsh people were extremely professional, kind and humble men, highly capable of moving difficult items, and went above and beyond expectations. Prices were fair and they offered a 10% cash discount. Without exaggeration, hiring Walsh was one of the best decisions I've made in my life.
They are a family-owned company with many movers working there for decades, and this makes a huge difference in the service you receive because they act like a big family and treat your belongings with utmost care. We hired them for a Saturday and then were told by our account manager that one of the workers had passed away and that everyone wanted to go to his funeral to honor and remember him. Because of this last-minute change, the account manager said they would move us on a Sunday, when they're normally closed.
Kenny was the leader of our team and he was fantastic. We had 3 men including Kenny, and then added a 4th man later in the process of the 10-hour move of two originating locations to one final location. Everyone had a great attitude and worked with great efficiency and Kenny and our account manager were highly communicative before and during the moving process. Furniture had to be moved out of balconies from upper levels (bc objects didn't fit through doorways) and the movers did it all without a second thought. They even told us they've done it from a 4th floor to the ground!
When you compare Walsh to other moving companies listed on Yelp (NOTE TO YELP: please remove the other crime ring moving companies from your site!), Walsh is NOT like other moving companies that contract out (at best) or are shells for organized crime rings (at worst). I was NOT hit on by any of the men (unfort that is very common as a woman hiring movers). We were never told "I can't move that" like other moving companies who will tell you that unless it's in a box they won't touch it. Tip: do not hire other moving companies that do not offer a cash discount, 'only take Venmo' and refuse to take credit cards, as they are likely organized crime rings who won't treat your belongings with respect and will hustle you to charge more that what you were quoted.Helpful 8Thanks 0Love this 5Oh no 0Business owner information

All true. Walsh Moving is one big family. We know well enough to take care of your ordinary needs and extraordinary needs, and all with a smile. In other words, if we take care of your needs first, then our needs are taken care of in the end. No syndicate here, Walsh Moving still in the family since 1964.

the owner of the company refunded my friend promptly - I am efforting removal of the bad review - but Yelp is preventing removal. Apparently this company has been around for decades and my friend's experience was an anomaly - so I would like to retract my former review of them based on how they rectified the situation.

Dan and Lee we're both professional and friendly. They moved all our items with care and skill. They were able to get the job done in under two hours and I couldn't be happier. Seems like most moving companies have a 3 hour minimum but these guys have 2.
10/10 would recommend!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Joe G.Chiriaco Summit, CA444022Aug 4, 2021
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!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

Walsh Moving is a family. We all get along terrifically. Our experienced employees stay here for many years; a handful for 25 years, and the majority over 10 years with Walsh.

These guys are true professionals. I had used another moving company for my last move and they nickeled and dimed me to death because of stairs and the extra feet they needed to walk because it was a large condo complex. My husband and I had to help in order to get the job done. Not with Walsh. These guys started on time and hustled the entire day. No extra charge for the stairs or the distance between the condo unit and the truck. They quoted an hourly amount and stuck to that number. They even took their lunch break in shifts to keep working. They ended up working an extra hour and a half to finish the job but I had no problem paying extra because these guys didn't slack off once the whole day. Moving is so stressful but Walsh provided such an excellent service that it was practically stress free. This company is the best and I thoroughly recommend them for your move.

After researching a couple moving companies in Torrance, my fiancé and I decided to go with Walsh Moving & Storage and we could not be happier with our decision. Not only were their prices top notch, but their service was great as well! A huge thank you to their customer service rep, Forest, for helping us get setup with our appointment and to our movers Dan and Lee for their quick and efficient work. They were the absolute best!
