Holguin Moving and Storage

I will not recommend these movers. The owner, Greg, assured me that everything would be taken care of as he did a walk thru of our home in Fremont. He misrepresented himself when he did the walk thru. He led me to believe that our belongings would be put in vaults (like pods). But on the day we moved, they loaded everything into a rented budget truck, and took it back to their warehouse, handled everything again, all while charging us for this «extra charge service» loading it into vaults/​pods for storage. On the delivery day, they removed everything out of the vaults, handling it again (which now is 3 times) loading it into another budget rental truck to be delivered to our home, now a 4^th time, while we get another charge added on to our bill that we weren’t told their was a charge for. Now for the clincher! They LOST 3 OF MY DINING CHAIRS. We called and spoke to Greg, who said he would look for them. I don’t know how he and his crew could look for them, as they didn’t know what the chairs looked like! Well, he never called back to let us know the status on the chairs. We have made phone calls almost every day since March 5, 2015, to only have the office lady say she keeps reminding Greg to call us. We have been stonewalled for almost 3 months! He finally called back 2 days ago, and said he would send a Claim Loss form. It is a generic form, and will never go outside of his dishonest little family run business. Our chair loss was a total of 650 bucks, and I can’t sell my table and chairs as I had planed to because how do you sell a set with only 3 chairs? I had a buyer to buy the dining room set, along with the matching buffet and curio, and am out $ 1,500! As dishonest as this company is, when you send the claim form back, you send it to them, not their insurance company, and the form will be shredded and «lost» just like my chairs. Oh, they were very expensive, $ 3,500 total. They did store our furniture for 2 months, and that charge was included in the total. Remember folks, that is a move from San Leandro to Fremont! We asked for an itemized statement several times to see how they justified these charges, but was never sent one. Frank the driver and a mover collects the money, yelling in broken English that you must pay, and he will not leave until he gets paid! Way to go Greg, hire a bully to do your dirty work! This is the whole truth. The only reason Greg finally called me, was when I threatened to talk with his brother or father, as they are the owners too. And of course, I couldn’t get a hold of the father or the brother because they don’t have a phone number! And if anyone knows the Holguin’s brother or father, let them know what a dirty business their son is running, before he does more to sully the family name. I was very patient, and gave this moving company 3 months to resolve these issues, and I finally had to complain on Unilocal! PS After handling our furniture so many times, we ended up with 3 broken items!

I first used Holguin about 18 years ago when I need a mover to move my husband and I and daughter from Milpitas to Livermore.
Then 15 years later I called them again to move me from Livermore to Pleasanton and they moved us and now we are getting ready to have them move us again 3 years later from Pleasanton to Las Vegas!
Yes! 3 times now to use this moving company and have to tell you that they are wonderful to work with and have moved our belongings from one place to the next place without anything getting broken!
They are fast and efficient and personable being a family run business an they care about their customers as they want returning customers like us to use them and spread the word if you want someone really good who cares.

This is a great moving company. From my first meeting with Greg, who assured me that all would be taken care of, to the quality packing, and then moving, everything was excellent. They delivered exactly what was promised. They saved me money by using my own boxes to pack things. They were courteous, professional, and made a very stressful life event run smoothly. This is a family business with long time employees. They care and they have great workers who will take the time to do the job right. Give them a call, you will be glad you did..

I just finished moving my household furnishings from the Santa Cruz Mountains to the Fremont area with these folks. They are a long-​time, family owned business, and I was truly impressed with the team that did my move.
I had a 200 year old, lead paned glass bookcase and I was very concerned about moving it. Should not have been, as they did a fantastic job of packing/​padding it and getting it into my new location.
A couple of notes. Two of the the crew had been there for 15+ years. Even two of the family owners showed up to pack! The other is that there facility is NOT one of those storage sheds. They have a controlled temp, and locked storage «cages» for the stuff I put into storage.
Highly reccomend them!
