Movers for a smallish job
Looking for recommendations for efficient movers with a low minimum. I'm moving back to Oakland with a pod, and need movers who can unload most of the items into the (2 bedroom, sparsely furnished) house and move a few items to a nearby storage unit. I anticipate the unloading taking 3 hours or less, so I would prefer a company with a low fixed/dispatch cost and a low minimum. Looking for someone generally responsible who will assemble our bed correctly, but since it's just unloading a pod they don't have to be brilliant experts at packing delicate objects or anything.

We used ADHD Movers twice. They were super reasonable, pleasant, and fast. You can check them out on Yelp.
We’ve used Tibetan Movers for small jobs - we have even had them pickup and deliver a single piece of furniture for us. They were affordable and provided a price over the phone. We highly recommend.
Hi! We used Up and Up Movers (https://upandupmoving.com/) for a similar move, just loading up our 2BR into a POD. They were great! We hired two movers and they were really efficient, communicated well, and had a good base rate for 3 hours of labor - I think it was $300+tip. It's cooperatively owned and they brought extra supplies that we ended up needing, so it saved us another trip to pick up packing materials. It was honestly the best company I've worked with after too many moves in the Bay Area to count. They only have 5-star reviews on Yelp as well, I highly recommend them!
When we moved 10 years ago, we hired Oasis Moving, and it's still good business. The 6 movers that came were very fast, efficient, and (in spite of how many things my family had) always kept up their good sense of humor. Movers insisted on carefully wrapping even the oldest furniture in cellophane. From reviews, I see that they're taking all COVID precautions.
