The team was great start to finish - I was able to pick my day and time of the move and they had options for full service (pack and move) or just move and could rent wardrobe boxes / mattress protectors to cut down on extra boxes I needed to purchase. Day of move was smooth and painless, the team was on time, professional, and incredibly efficient. I will be using them again!

The acid test is would I use CFM again. The answer emphatically is I would. In fact, we have another move coming up and we will be using them. Our move was to a storage facility. The team lead by Tyler understood exactly what we wanted done and executed it.

Elizabeth Freda

We recently used Collins for a move and our team — Nestor, Daniel and Daniel — was excellent. It was a massive job and they got it done exactly within the estimated timeframe, which we (and our wallets) really appreciated. They were super friendly and helpful. Would definitely use Collins again.

Richard was great to deal with on the scheduling logistics side, and the crew - Miguel, Juan, Danny and Celedonio were quick, efficient, and in great spirits the entire time and a pleasure to chat with throughout the whole process. The whole experience was a pleasure and I'd happily recommend them to anybody needing to move and not wanting to do it all on their own.

William and Danny took care of our one bedroom move, they were friendly, professional, and thorough. Everything was wrapped really well and loading and unloading went smoothly. One of the least stressful moves I’ve had in a while!

My fiancé and I were moving to our new apartment and they were absolutely wonderful to work with. The whole process from scheduling to day of was great.

Everyone at Collins is first rate! Excellent customer service to coordinate the move and top-notch employees on-site to help us move to our new home. Let's face it: no one likes to move, but if/when I have to move again, Collins Family Movers will be my only call. Thanks to everyone there!

I highly recommend Collins Family Movers! I was more than impressed with them. They also came highly recommended. (Even from two people who had an issue with a delay in movers showing up last summer, they still spoke so highly of Collins — and when you’re moving and encounter that, a referral could then be a hit or miss!)Before the move — I spoke with Rick Dang several times when scheduling my move, and he was a pleasure to work with. He was thorough and answered all of my questions, making sure the move would be a success. I had also gathered quotes from two other companies, but speaking on the phone with Rick left an impression. In fact, I believe Rick called me within 30 minutes of submitting a quote! I appreciated this a lot — despite being a younger person in which some folks assume we prefer doing things online, I would much rather speak to someone directly. And, sure, their quote was the best of the 3, but with the referral and Rick’s friendliness, I knew moving forward with them was a great decision.Moving day — Within the first few minutes of showing up, Will, Jeremy, and Arnulfo gave a great impression. Will was the lead, and he was so very personable! We could probably chat for hours. These guys kicked BUTT in moving my large one bedroom apartment (few stairs) to a two bedroom apartment. This was also my first “adult” move using movers, so I wanted to ensure everything was as seamless as possible in terms of my packing and labeling. They knocked out loading within an hour and a half, and unloading was a breeze as well. I also appreciated that they unmounted my TV, something I lined up with Rick ahead of time but was nervous about come moving day. While I didn’t have any items over 200 pounds, my largest items were an electric fireplace TV stand and a queen bed frame in a box. Those and all other items were moved in such an impressive manner. A big shoutout to Jeremy — he is a powerhouse with how he carries items! We were all chatting and laughing, and we appreciated how Will said it’s also important that customers are in a good state of mind during the process as it helps them too. They were so, so kind. I told them I’ve been a ball of stress during the whole process, but I’d felt SO much relief within minutes of them showing up.Overall, they wrapped up within ~3.5 hours and under quote — amazing. This was a large 1 bed to 2 bed move within 20 minutes of each other. I can’t recommend them enough. This is a family-owned company with some great folks, both movers and management. You can read and check out the “bigger” names in the city, but you’ll walk away with a great experience using Collins. (And this is not AI, I just love em dashes and have written like this for years. 😉)

I’m impressed. The crew came in, asked a few questions, and just got to work. Very professional, moved with purpose, took great care of all of our belongings, wrapped and moved flawlessly.Partway through our move, the elevator broke down. The crew pivoted to the stairs (4th floor) without a complaint.I’m happy to say that when moving into our new home, they did it without one scratch on the walls. Final price was under the quoted price. It was a win-win.I highly recommend the crew below, great service and great people. Thanks again!Tyler, Rocky, Arturo, Hidelberto, Elias, and Andras.

So happy I found Collins movers! Tyler was amazing! I have had horrible experiences with other moving companies so I took a risk and tried Collins Family Movers for the first time. They were so kind, efficient and communicative. We moved from a 3 bedroom apartment, added a stop at our storage, and then drove 25 miles to our new home. Not to mention, we added a few last minute requests with no pushback.We asked for a larger team due to the volume of furniture and items we have and it worked out great. Our new house had been freshly painted with new hardwood flooring and the team was careful not to scuff the walls or floor. They wrapped all our furniture so nicely. The best team ever! If you use Collins Movers, ask for Tyler, Atruro, Rocky, Elias, Andras, and Hidelberto!! Best moving experience!

Nestor, José and Rafael were first rate movers! On time, efficient, professional, helpful with every request. I would recommend Collins movers for your moves and ask for this specific crew. My move was completed in a little over 3 hours. I was very pleased with them and their attention to all details.Update: April 2026: I used Collins Family Movers again and William, Jeremy and Arnolfo were a delight to work with. They were personable, hard-working, and three of the strongest individuals I've ever met! Hopefully, I will not have to move again anytime soon, but if I do, I will not hesitate to use CFM. Richard, the owner, even helped me at the last minute, switch to another day that worked better for everyone. This company should get all the stars!!

Use this moving company! I’ve worked with Collins Family Movers twice, each time with Miguel as the crew lead. They were thorough and fast. Miguel was great about doing a quick walk through of each space and asking questions to confirm what was being moved and special considerations for our items. The team took apart our beds and rebuilt them with no problems.

Crix

1777049944

The men were super nice and attentive. Great communication and efforts to moving my items in a timely manner. There were slight dirt markings on my sofa from the move but Richard made sure to reach out with a solution and took care of the situation. Great service!

I can not share enough how much I’d recommend this moving company. It first started on the phone with John, who helped us swiftly get same day movers and ensure that we will be taken care of by him throughout the whole process. Luckily, we didn’t need to call him once because William and Jeremy took SUCH good care of us. Please see picture for how well these men picked up boxes too nonetheless. The boss called also to check in on all of us mid process too. They kept everything so safe, so fast, so KIND. If you are looking for a mover, go here.

This family moving business is the real deal. Aiden and the guys were on time, communicated during every part of the move and handled all items with care. I moved a 4 bedroom house as a minimalist and it was smooth. Customer service on this level is hard to find these days. I will be using Collins Family for all moves and even small projects. I am very impressed with the whole team and the price was beyond fair for the service. Don’t think about it book them you won’t regret it!!

What an exceptional experience! I was blown away with the expertise at which our move was handled. The communication was top notch from both Richard and his team. The guys were personable and truly attentive to our needs. They wrapped everything with precision and care, and handled our belongings with ease. They are truly pros!We just moved across the country last summer and another move was not in the plans, so we decided to get some help and I am so glad we did! They saved us hours of time and loads of stress. The price was extremely reasonable, and they even came in under the estimate! Completely impressed!

Nothing short of excellence! These guys did an AMAZING job and are the real deal. Communication was top notch. They asked what needed to be done and they got it done in an efficient amount of time. EJ, Uriel, Kevin, and Gusto all were personable and made the thought of moving turn from a nightmare into a fairytale. I’ll definitely request these guys the next go around.

The entire team at Collins Family Movers did a phenomenal job with our cross-state move. Berto, Nestor, Arturo, Dominic, Juan, and Rocky were efficient, professional, and handled everything with care. Our furniture was properly wrapped and arrived in excellent condition. Richard, Ricky, John, and the team were communicative, making the process smooth and stress-free. Highly recommend for reliable and careful movers.

Wow, what an exceptional quality service. It was easy to book a move date and time. The whole process was seamless from beginning to end.The three guys meticulously wrapped everything, furniture, desk, table, chairs, appliances, mirrors, etc... They carried and loaded the truck with care. They also put apart and reassemble bed sets and large table. The crew was flexible and considerate of what needed to be done. I am extremely grateful and satisfied. I strongly recommend Collins Family Movers.

Was a pleasure dealing with Collins Family Movers. Rich, the owner, was very attentive to the details and my requests for the move. On moving day, EJ and Uriel arrived promptly. They took great care in wrapping and moving my furniture to the truck and worked promptly. They unloaded my furniture at my new location and took great care in removing and setting it up. If you’re looking for a moving company, I couldn’t recommend Collins Family Movers highly enough.

I had a last-minute situation when I arrived at my new home in Phoenix and realized just how much stuff I had packed into my U-Haul. I was completely overwhelmed and struggling to figure out how I was going to unload everything on my own.While I was driving from LA to Phoenix, my girlfriend started calling local moving companies for help. No one was available—until she got a hold of Collins Family Movers. Christian was incredibly accommodating, and I spoke with him while I was still on the road. By the time I arrived at my new home, Rajan and Nate were there within 10 minutes.These two young gentlemen were extremely professional, strong, and organized. We started around 2:30 PM and were completely finished by about 6 PM. What would have taken me three days to do on my own, they knocked out in just a few hours.Collins Family Movers truly saved the day. They were an absolute blessing, and the entire team was amazing from start to finish. I can’t thank them enough—highly recommend!PS: All this for an amazing price! Completely blown away!

I recently completed a long-distance move to Elk Grove, California and I cannot say enough great things about Collins Family Movers. From start to finish, the experience was seamless, professional, and stress-free. The office staff is incredibly attentive to detail. Communication was fantastically clear, consistent, and proactive throughout the entire process. I always knew what was happening and never felt left in the dark, which is rare in the moving industry.The packing and handling were exceptional. Every item was wrapped meticulously literally like a mummy with extreme care and professionalism. Nothing was rushed, nothing overlooked. As a result, all of my belongings arrived early and in perfect condition, without a single issue. While the price may not be comparable to a standard freight line, the value is absolutely worth it. You are paying for concierge-level service, not a shared truck packed with random items from multiple customers. There’s peace of mind knowing your belongings are handled with respect, cleanliness, and care, no mixing with other shipments or questionable handling.If you’re looking for a reliable, high-quality moving company that truly prioritizes customer service and the safety of your belongings, Collins Family Movers is worth every penny. I would highly recommend them to anyone planning a long-distance move.

Beyond satisfied! The owner, Richard, got involved and helped me with a small move (@ 35 boxes). They had been inadvertently left behind on a recent out of State move. He was quick and resourceful. He got a small cargo van , drove 12 hours straight (Goodyear AZ to Lubbock TX) and delivered my missing boxes, all for a reasonable price. This is what great customer service looks like!

I had an amazing experience. From start to finish, they exceeded my expectations. I paid close attention to the contract and there were no surprises, Richard was very understanding. The guys were on time, and they handled all of my stuff with great care—wrapping everything securely to ensure nothing got damaged. Not only were they efficient with packing and unpacking, but they also made the entire process so much fun with their humor and positive attitudes. They were super kind and professional, making the whole move smooth and stress-free. I would absolutely hire them again for any future moves. 100% Highly recommend!

Let me start by saying this, I’m not one for reviews. I’m the type of person who forgets to rate their Uber unless the driver does a backflip and knows the “exact” recipe for my favorite taco. But when Collins Family Movers moved me from my tiny Goodyear shoebox apartment to my slightly-less-tiny Goodyear shoebox apartment (progress!), I felt compelled to share my story. Because these men are the real MVPs of the moving world - like if Superman and your favorite uncle had a baby, and that baby loved bubble wrap.First off, the team showed up “on time”. Like, “punctual” on time. I was sipping my third coffee of the morning, mentally preparing to tackle the “heavy lifting” (read: crying into a box labeled “Dishes? Maybe?”), when these giants in big blue truck arrived with grins and a plan that didn’t involve me lifting anything heavier than my existential dread.- They managed to fit my “collections” (read: 17 unread books and a suspiciously large amount of expired cereal) into the truck like Tetris champions.- When I nervously asked if my lamp—a fragile heirloom passed down from my grandma (who “actually” just bought it at Walmart)—would survive, the foreman mover deadpanned, “Ma’am, we once moved a grand piano through a second-story window. Your lamp’s got a VIP seat.”- They even helped me assemble my bed post-move while I napped on the floor like a dignitary.Collin’s Family Movers isn’t just a moving company - they’re the anti-panic buttons of Goodyear. If you’re considering them, do it! They’ll move your stuff, maybe your soul, and definitely your stress into the recycling bin where it belongs.

Richard and his team at Collins Family mover did a great long distance move fromArizona to Chicago for me! Very professional. I booked a last minute move with them and they got all my stuff here on time. Will be working with them in the future, especially I just found out they also have a company here on the north side of Chicago! Thank you again!!

We hired Collin's Family Movers for a local move in the West Valley and could not have been more pleased with the service. From the initial estimate to the last item off of the truck everything was top notch. They took really good care of our belongings and made sure we were getting exactly what we paid for and more. Would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a great moving company with a great price. We will be using them again for any future needs. Thank you team!
