“University Movers, one of Santa Barbara’s most respected moving companies, has established its reputation for the highest quality customer service in the industry by developing a powerful, highly trained base of professional movers while keeping its administration small, involved, and available.

When you call this firm, you speak directly with the owner. Started in 2000 as a partnership between two UCSB students, this company has served thousands of Santa Barbara residents and businesses. The company owners, one a graduate from UCSB’s business department, and the other, a PhD candidate, work around the clock to continually perfect the company creed. “Providing the highest professional standards!” is more than mere lip service. Even though you can expect premium quality service, University Movers is refreshingly affordable. Why? In a word…efficiency.

University Movers provides a complete line of services that are personally tailored to every client’s individual needs. Whether you are moving across the street or across the world, University Movers is rapidly expanding its facilities to serve Santa Barbara County with new equipment, modern training, specialized technology, and the ever increasing commitment to community service.

This company does more than just move. University Movers vigorously supports public education by funding local charities in answer to statewide budget cuts.

The editors of this 2004 Consumer Business Review recommend University Movers to all of our readers.”

"We greatly appreciate your kind gesture to help us. Your efforts during the Postal Food Drive were invaluable. We'd have been dead meat without you! Your trucks were exactly what was needed. Our poor pick-up trucks just can't keep up with the need."

"Dear Brett,
I wanted to take a minute to let you know what a great job University Movers did for Camerata Pacifica during our 2003/2004 concert season. University Movers was very reliable (as we used you every month of our 10 month concert season), consistent, and flexible. Your movers were always courteous, helpful, and careful with the fragile items they were moving (such as pianos, harpsichords, and large fiberglass panels). We appreciate the quality of service you gave us and would recommend you to others. Thank you and take care."

"Dear Joey and Brett,
I have moved many times over the past decade and I just wanted you to know that my last move with your company was the most stress free experience that I have ever had with a mover. I was treated like a guest in my own home! I was pleasantly surprised at how courteous and enjoyable you all are to work with. Your team spirit and your obvious respect for my time had the work completed much more quickly than I had anticipated. You all obviously love what you do and Santa Barbara is lucky to have you here!"

"Dear University Movers,
Thank you for such careful care of my home. The extra effort and time that you spent in assuring a safe move for my family’s furniture put my mind at ease. I appreciate how my wishes were carried out so diligently. Your team is especially easy to work with and I felt that your attention to detail is an asset to what you do!"

"Dear Joey,
You have brought the Bakara to moving. Thank you for such an amazing crew. These were six of the most outstanding young men that I have had the privilege to spend a day with. I was amazed at how happy you all seem even though you work so hard! "

"Hi Brett.
I just wanted to send you a quick email to thank you and your staff for a great job last weekend. Robert and Don were so nice to me and my family, they arrived on time, hustled and treated my grandma's furniture with great care. Not to mention, they were super patient with my mom, who had them playing musical chairs with her dressers. My uncle just moved into a new apartment about a month ago and used ....... He was VERY impressed with the job Robert and Don did and said ........ didn't do nearly as good a job. Plus, it was so nice of you to give my gram a discount. Again, thank you and please pass my thanks on to Robert and Don. Take care."
