Got a call to move a very good customer of ours and couldn’t think of better moving team to hire for this job. Our client was moving from a Beverly Hills Villa into another home on a sloped and narrower street in Beverly Hills. Since the Villa was being remodeled, the housed had to be packed and moved in two days to adhere to a strict budget set by the client and we had appliances and cabinets needed to be stripped… I remember being overwhelmed with the sheer magnitude of all that need to get done in order to keep to the clients budget but King kept the team level headed and we pushed through with a 8man team and two trucks. King also found the contractor to strip the cabinets and appliances so they can be moved to the new locations… it looked impossible but King and Marketing Movers made it happen! (photos added)

Best moving team in Los Angeles. Moving is definitely a hectic ordeal and even more hectic to manage and coordinate several moves all at once. We found King just in time to coordinate the staging off our home and moving our personal belongings. He made everything look so easy and so effortless.

I reached out to King to help me out in a bind. He’s someone I know that always has a solution or a fix for everything and I was scrambling for man power and a decent sized truck to make a multi-stop move happen for El-Cristiano. Other moving companies had quoted me outrageously for heavy box fees and fees for additional stops but with King and Marketing Movers I only had to pay truck cost and the hourly rate for a 4 man team on two trucks. He was able to make this happen for me at the drop of a dime so I am truly grateful he came through when it counted most!

I was referred to this company for my move to my new place as a newly single person when I didn’t know anyone to assist me and it was a move sent from heaven. Everything was so efficient, affordable and the owner was so friendly and helpful! Won’t be using another company other than them!
