We’d rather let the jobs speak. Most of our reviews come from folks who moved within Placer County and a steady share from the longer West Coast hauls. We read every one, the rough ones included, because that’s how the crew gets better. Below are notes from real Foreign Movers customers around Roseville, Rocklin, Granite Bay, and farther out.
The kind of moves these come from
A rough breakdown of what we run in a typical year:
- ~60% local Placer County and northeast Sacramento moves
- ~25% long-distance West Coast hauls (Bay Area, Reno, Portland, LA)
- ~15% apartments and condos — walk-ups, elevators, tight complexes
“Booked our condo move off Pleasant Grove and the crew showed up right at 8am like the sheet said. Two guys, one truck, done by early afternoon. The flat price they quoted held exactly, no surprise add-ons at the end.”
“We had a two-story off Douglas with a tight HOA gate that nobody could ever get a truck through. Nick's crew measured it, backed the 26-footer in on the first try, and wrapped every banister before a single box moved. They worked through lunch without complaining once. Four bedrooms plus a packed garage and nothing got dinged. The written quote and the final invoice matched to the dollar, which after my last move with another outfit felt like a small miracle.”
“Moved from Rocklin near Sierra College into a place in Loomis. Three movers, very fast, and they reassembled both bed frames so I didn't have to hunt for screws all night. Highly recommend.”
“Third-floor walk-up with no elevator and these guys never slowed down. They taped my dresser drawers shut and shrink-wrapped the couch before carrying it down. Price was the flat rate quoted on the phone.”
“Helped my mom downsize out of her Sun City single-story into assisted living. The crew was patient with her, let her decide what stayed and what went, and labeled everything so the unpacking was painless. They even swept the empty rooms before they left. I can't say enough about how kind they were on a hard day. The quote was honest and the deposit came right off the total.”
“Needed an upright piano moved across Folsom and they had the right straps and a proper dolly. In and out in under an hour, no scratches on the floors or the instrument. Fair price for specialty work.”
“Solid move overall. The crew showed up about 30 minutes late off an I-80 backup near the CA-65 split, but the lead called ahead to warn me and they still finished the whole condo same day. Once they got rolling they were quick and careful, and the flat price didn't budge for the delay. Would use again.”
“Small studio move near Vernon Street. Two movers knocked it out in two hours flat. Easy to book, on time, done.”
“We did an early-morning load to beat the valley heat and I'm so glad they suggested it. By the time it hit 100 degrees the truck was packed and we were on the road. The Fiddyment Farm driveway is long and they hustled the whole way without dragging anything across the concrete. Nick called the night before just to confirm the crew size and parking. Everything arrived in one piece and the bill was the number on the estimate.”
“Rented my own truck and just needed muscle to load it in Fair Oaks. Two guys for a couple hours, no equipment minimum, and they packed that thing like a puzzle so nothing shifted on the drive. Great value.”
“June heat was brutal but the crew kept water on hand and never let it slow them down. They wrapped the TV and the glass tabletop themselves without me asking. Clean, professional, and the price on the sheet is what I paid.”
“Moved the family out of Antelope up to a new build off Blue Oaks. Three movers, fast and respectful, and they took apart the kids' bunk beds and put them back together at the new place. No drama, no hidden fees, just a good crew doing the work.”
“Roseville to Portland and the same crew that loaded us in Loomis is the one that unloaded us in Oregon two days later. That continuity mattered to me because they knew exactly which boxes were fragile. They gave me a binding written quote up front and it never moved. Every piece of furniture was blanket-wrapped before it touched the truck. When they climbed the I-80 grade out of the valley they texted updates so I knew where my stuff was. Five trucks worth of nerves and they handled all of it.”
“Quick one-bedroom in Orangevale. Booked it two days ahead, deposit locked the date, crew was early. Smooth all around.”
“Big house in Diamond Creek with a lot of heavy oak furniture. The crew brought extra dollies and never once asked to leave anything behind. They worked the early shift so we missed the worst of the August heat, and the foreman walked the house with me at the end to make sure nothing was forgotten. The estimate was flat and honest from the first phone call. Nick is bilingual and chatted with my parents in Russian, which put them at ease. This is the second time we've used Foreign Movers and it won't be the last.”
“Good move but I'll be honest about one thing. The crew got hung up about 40 minutes behind on an I-80 accident coming over from Rancho Cordova, though the office texted me the moment they knew. After that the two movers were fast and the apartment was empty by mid-afternoon. The flat price held even with the delay, so no harm done. I'd book them again.”
“Tiny studio but I have a heavy sleeper sofa that two previous movers gave up on. These guys stood it on end, angled it through the door, and had it loaded in ten minutes. Pros.”
“WestPark to a place near Mahany Park. The crew protected the new hardwood with floor runners before they carried in a single box. Three movers, very organized, and the price matched the written quote. No notes.”
“Second-floor unit near Maidu Park and the stairs were narrow. The two-man crew padded the corners and never scuffed a wall. In and out before lunch, exactly the flat rate they quoted on the phone.”
“Hired them for Roseville to Las Vegas. They gave me a binding flat quote over $2,400 and that's exactly what I paid, no fuel surcharge nonsense tacked on at delivery. The crew that loaded in Sierra Gardens drove the whole way and unloaded everything themselves. They reassembled my desk and the bed at the other end. Took two days and they kept me posted the whole route down I-80 and US-95. Couldn't ask for a cleaner long-haul.”
“Easy booking, friendly office, and the movers showed up when they said. They wrapped my grandmother's china hutch like it was made of glass. Worth every dollar.”
“We moved up into the foothills toward Newcastle and the driveway is on a real grade. The truck handled it fine and the crew shuttled boxes up the slope without complaint. They disassembled a heavy treadmill and a sectional, then put both back together. The foreman did a final walkthrough and had me sign off only after I'd checked every room. Flat price, no games. These are clearly the company's own crews, not some random subcontractor, and it shows in how they treated the furniture.”
“My father moved from his Penryn property into a smaller place in Roseville. The crew was gentle, slow when it needed to be, and never made him feel rushed. Honest pricing and a kind team.”
“Decent move with one small hiccup. They were running about half an hour late off a CA-65 backup, but the dispatcher called to give me a heads-up before I even noticed. The two movers were quick once they arrived and got my one-bedroom loaded and delivered the same afternoon. The flat rate stayed put despite the delay, which I appreciated. Solid company.”
“Moved out of North Highlands into Roseville. Two movers, three hours, careful with everything. They even hauled off the broken-down boxes for me at the end. Great crew.”
“Winter move from Carmichael and it was raining hard that morning. The crew laid down tarps and runners so nothing tracked mud into the new place, and they kept the truck doors managed so boxes stayed dry. Three movers, organized, and they wrapped the leather couch before it left the house. The whole thing came in right at the flat quote with no weather excuse to pad the bill. I'd hire them again without thinking twice.”
“Baby grand from Loomis to Granite Bay. This is delicate work and the crew knew it, with a piano board and the right straps. No damage, careful on the stairs, fair specialty price. Nick clearly trains his people right.”
“Roseville to San Jose for a job relocation. The same two movers loaded us in Rocklin and unloaded at the other end, which made the whole thing feel less chaotic. They gave me a binding written quote and it held. Everything was blanket-wrapped and shrink-wrapped, and they reassembled the bed and the dining table for me. They worked the morning load so we got ahead of the heat and traffic on I-80. Honestly the smoothest move I've ever had, and I've done five of them.”
