What Our Clients Are Saying About Us
See what our happy customers have to say about their experience with Workhorse Moving Co. — real stories, real moves, real satisfaction.
Jake’s crew moved my mother-in-law from Foster City to Angel’s Camp. They did a great job and were terrific to work with. They arrived exactly on time, got her loaded in record time, and moved everything to a 4th floor apartment on the hottest day of the year! We would definitely recommend them!
We used this service for a small move to a storage facility. Our initial interactions and pricing discussions were extremely transparent. The moving team arrived on time and handled our items with extra care. They were extremely professional and it was a total pleasure, doing business with them!
My company works with people who have special needs. We provide support in many areas including finding housing and moving. We needed help to move a couple from Amador to Calaveras County. Jake responded promptly and quicly worked up an estimate. This job required several extra accomodations and Jake and his team happily accomodated all of them.
