Helping Hand moving crew in front of their trucks
Helping Hand moving crew in front of their trucks

Helping Hand Movers is the most highly-rated moving company in Naples, according to our scoring system. With hundreds of stellar reviews across Google, Yelp, and Angi, as well as friendly customer service and strong employee retention, Helping Hand Movers is worth consideration if you're moving in Florida.

Helping Hand Movers was started in 2013 by Diana and their husband Patrick O'Halloran. They started as a four-person team, loading and unloading rental trucks and containers. "Very basic stuff," according to Diana O'Halloran. The company grew organically, with the team learning the business "from the ground up." Helping Hand continues to operate out of Naples, and it's now grown to include three 26-foot moving trucks and a moving van.

According to O'Halloran, more than 70% of the moving crew has been with the company for six or seven years, and others for 10 years or more. It's a "steady crew" that sticks around thanks to a "small family atmosphere," O'Halloran says. Helping hand runs background checks on all potential hires.

Great movers. Owner gave me a bid price he honored. Visited our home pre-move and gave us helpful suggestions. Moving crew was courteous and professional. They worked efficiently as a team and were respectful to each other and us. Excellent drop off and placed furniture exactly where we requested. Great value all around. Thank you. — Chuck Rogers, Google Reviews (⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐)

Helping Hand Movers is available seven days a week and charges the same fee no matter the day. For a job requiring three movers and a truck — the norm for a standard two- or three-bedroom move — our quote was $195 per hour. There's also a $95 service fee for travel to and from the job site. The company requests a deposit based on the size of the job before it begins work.

Helping Hand is licensed throughout Florida and offers a wide range of services. Residential and commercial moving is its primary focus, with senior relocation, in-home packing and unpacking, in-home furniture moving, and specialty item moving also on the bill. The company loads and unloads rental trucks and containers, and it recently started a "White Glove" delivery service for antiques and specialty items that require extra care. It rents climate-controlled storage from a third-party company if required.

Although it does not offer long-distance moves, O'Halloran says the company hopes to resume out-of-state service in the next six months.

You can call Helping Hand Movers at 239-250-1544 or visit its website to request a free estimate. Based on our experience, you can expect a prompt call back if your call isn't answered immediately.

Mover wearing a Top Class Moving hat (Top Class Moving)

With a roster of highly qualified and vetted moving professionals — each with eight to 22 years of experience — Top Class Moving is a top choice for local movers in Naples, FL. It is licensed to operate throughout Florida, but it focuses primarily on Naples, Fort Myers, Cape Coral, Estero, and Bonita Springs.

We spoke with Jay Soovali, who started Top Class Moving more than 15 years ago and remains the owner today. Soovali says about 90% of his customers are referred by past customers, which allows his team to remain small but nimble. He says the company is fully insured and shares all insurance information with the customer before the move begins. A deposit is usually required and is based on the size of the job, though referred and repeat customers might be exempt.

Top Class Moving does not offer long-distance moving services. Besides residential and commercial moving, Top Class will pack and unpack your goods and load and unload rental trucks and rental containers.

Jay and his crew were awesome!! We had 4 movers and two trucks for an in town move to the storage. All of the movers were professional and friendly. They showed up on time and worked hard until the job was complete. One month later when our new house was ready, they load the two trucks again. They were very efficient and fast, and took good care of our furniture. Nothing was damaged! Thank you! Highly recommended!!Angela B., Yelp Reviews (⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐)

We received a quote from Top Class Moving on the same day it was submitted, so you shouldn't have to wait for a price estimate. The company prefers to be booked about a month in advance, but emergency jobs may be possible if scheduling aligns.

As with most local moving services, Top Class charges by the hour and how many employees are required for the job. Our quote was $190 per hour for three movers and a truck and a flat $190 fee for travel time. If you're moving out of town, Top Class Moving's estimates are based on the distance and time required to complete the job.

You can call Top Class Moving at 239-989-7895 or visit its website to request a free estimate. Expect a callback or answer within a few hours of leaving a message.

A company photo from Cleveland Bass Movers & Storage in Naples, FL

Cleveland Bass Storage & Movers handles residential services and commercial moves. We spoke with Cassandra Stready, Operations Manager and granddaughter of the company's founder, for the history behind this long-lasting moving company. Stready says Cleveland Bass was the first moving company in Naples, FL, when Mr. Cleveland Bass first started it in 1969.

It's still owned and operated by Bass's son and extended family and continues to provide reliable moving services 55 years later. The company has many corporate customers, making it an experienced option for commercial moves, according to Stready.

Cleveland Bass offers trustworthy — all employees receive background checks — residential and commercial moving, sells packing supplies, and will deliver goods locally or ship internationally. The company offers its own climate-controlled storage options should you require them, which can be helpful if you need to move out of one place before your next home or office is ready.

The company has 12 trucks and employs 10 to 15 movers "on a busy day," Stready says. All full-time employees receive background checks, though most of the movers work by contract.

From the moment of the first meeting with owner, Tim, I was made to feel confident as, let’s face it, moving to a different state can be daunting. But Cassandra the Office Mgr, was always there for me with her friendly, understanding and competent handling of the different issues that arose. From the packers & the wrapping staff, loaders who worked tirelessly & cheerfully, to ultimately the awesome delivery staff. I could not have been better taken care of, and I would urge anyone, who’s thinking about moving to call Cleveland Bass Movers. — Susanne Silber, Google Reviews (⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐)

The company charges by the hour for local moves, as is standard. Our quote was $275 per hour for three movers and a truck, which should be enough for the average two- or three-bedroom home. Cleveland Bass also charges an extra $275 for travel fees to and from the site, but if you're close to its headquarters at 2362 Linwood Way in Naples you might see a half-hour charge for travel. A deposit is required for 20% of the job estimate. Cleveland Bass prefers at least five days' notice for local moves.

Estimates for long-distance moves out of Naples are provided on a case-by-case basis. Cleveland Bass prefers one to two weeks of notice for long-distance moves.

Call the company at 239-774-4848 or visit its website to request a free estimate. In our experience, you can expect a quick response if your call isn't immediately answered.

Demers Moving of SWFL Moving truck (Demers Moving of SWFL)

Moving isn't cheap, and if price is a top consideration Demers Moving of SWFL might be right for you. It's Better Business Bureau (BBB)-accredited with an A rating and no filed complaints, and it has near-perfect scores across Google and Yelp. All employees receive background checks.

Demers Moving of SWFL charges by the hour for local moves, which is common. You can expect to pay about $160 per hour for three movers and a truck, the standard workforce for two- or three-bedroom residential moves. Two movers cost $120 per hour, while four movers cost $210 hourly.

Travel fees are flat no matter how many movers are on the job. Within Naples, you'll pay from $45 to $75 in fees for service in Bonita Springs and Marco Island. If you instead book Demers Moving for packing and unpacking boxes or loading and unloading a rental truck or container, you'll pay the same amount minus the travel fee. If you're in Naples and the job takes less than an hour, you'll be charged $150 total. No deposit is required.

The movers were professional, respective of my belongings, reasonable in price, courteous, and stayed on task to get the move completed as quickly as possible. I had no evident damages, unlike other moving companies !I witnessed at the storage facility. This is a 5 star company and I am so thankful that I chose them! — Arlene Lindell, Google Reviews (⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐)

Reed's Moving & Storage employees standing in front of a moving truck (Reed's Moving & Storage)

Naples natives Shannon and Issac Reed started Reed's Moving & Storage in 2014. Shannon Reed says they "started with $75 and a dream" 10 years ago, renting a truck for the first year and a half and relying on their two sons to help with the business. The company built a fleet of 11 trucks and 20 movers, but in September of 2022 Hurricane Ian "took all 11 trucks" and forced some employees to seek new opportunities elsewhere, Reed says. Reed's Moving & Storage has since recovered, climbing back to seven trucks and 15 qualified movers today.

When asked if employees receive background checks, Reed said she's personally known her movers or their families for most of their lives. That's the benefit of being in Naples for six generations on Shannon's side and four generations on Issac's side, according to Reed.

Whereas most moving companies tack on travel fees, Reed's Moving & Storage forgoes the charge and offers an hourly rate for local services. Our quote was $175 per hour for three movers and a truck, enough to handle two- or three-bedroom moves. A deposit equal to the cost of one hour of work is required for local moves. The company is available seven days a week, and Reed says next-day local service is often available. Reed's Moving requests at least two weeks' notice for long-distance moves.

5-star service. The office was efficient and accurate. They even reached out to us proactively to let us know we could move at an earlier, more optimal time. The gentlemen who moved us were meticulous and quick and didn't ruin a thing. I wholeheartedly recommend this service. — Debbie Williams, Google Reviews (⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐)

Reed's Moving & Storage offers household and commercial moving services, as well as senior moving and relocation, same-day delivery, custom crating, loading, unloading, and packing. Reed says the company recently completed and opened a new 11,000-square-foot vault storage facility with climate control, and the company plans to resume offering secure outdoor RV and vehicle storage in June 2024.

As for long-distance moves outside of Naples, expect to be charged by volume, distance, and the time it takes to complete the job.

You can call Reed's Moving & Storage at 239-348-0151 or visit its website to request a free estimate. Expect a quick call back if your call isn't picked up immediately, based on our experience.

Reed's Moving & Storage is family-owned and operated, and its owners say it's staffed by movers with strong ties to the community.

Next-day moves are often available, though busy periods (like the end of the month) require a week's notice. Long-distance moves are possible, but the company prefers a month's notice to plan. Reed's can also deliver, store, and crate your goods and will handle specialty items like pianos or antiques.

Pros
  • No travel fees
  • Wide range of services, including vehicle storage
  • Next-day moves are possible depending on the schedule

The Trend Moving & Storage team in front of a moving truck
The Trend Moving & Storage team in front of a moving truck (Trend Moving & Storage)

Trend Moving & Storage was formed in New Hampshire in 2016, and it has since expanded into Florida with a location in Fort Myers. That means it has Naples covered, and it promises service up and down the East Coast thanks to Department of Transportation (DOT) licensing and a team of moving pros — all receive background checks — familiar with interstate service. Trend handles local moves, but its four-hour move minimum pricing makes it a better option for long-distance or large moves.

Trend handles residential (apartments and condos) and commercial moves, it will pack and unpack your goods, and it'll even handle large items like pianos, clocks, appliances, and gym equipment. Storage in climate-controlled vaults is available to keep your belongings safe during or following a move.

From the initial phone call (shout out to Ben) to completion of the move, everyone at Trend was so communicative. The movers who helped me, DaRayus, Alvaro, and Isaac were not only professional, but so efficient and took such great care of all my stuff. I would highly recommend Trend to ANYONE! — Alexis Franzi, Google Reviews (⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐)

Trend is a large company with a toll-free customer service setup; what it lacks in personal touches it makes up for in quick information and quote turnarounds, based on our experience. We spoke with a representative to get an idea of pricing. Trend charges hourly for local moves, including the time it takes to travel from Fort Myers to Naples. Our quote was $165 per hour for three movers, plus a flat $250 fee for the truck. Trend's four-hour minimum charge results in costs of at least $910 for a move. Any time after the four-hour minimum is rounded to the nearest quarter-hour. A $200 deposit is required for local moves; long-distance moves require 20% of the total estimate.

A company coordinator handles long-distance moves individually, but Trend usually charges by the space taken up on the moving truck. A move from Naples to New Hampshire, or roughly 1,500 miles, would cost between $12,000 and $16,000 for a full truck, according to a company representative.

You can call Trend's toll-free line at 855-509-6683 or visit its website to request your free estimate.

The secure facility has motion-sensing cameras running 24/7 and an alarm system for extra peace of mind.

Super great company! Reached out to them via Yelp and had the movers here two hours later! When I reached out to other companies they demanded $375 or more for the same job, that took a total of 40 min. Affordable was very reasonable about pricing, rather than sending us generic pricing and a demand for minimum hours order, they created a custom quote! They moved a very important piano for us, and worked efficiently and quickly to ensure it was done. Not only that, it was done safely— and without harm to the item. Great service over all, and superior customer service. I recommend them to anyone in need of help! — Grace L., Yelp Reviews (⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐)

Affordable offers interior design services (packing, moving, and staging), commercial moving and trade show setup, estate moving, and senior relocation in the same building or up to 50 miles away. Home cleanouts and US shipping are available, while unwanted goods are donated or recycled.

Affordable Moving & Storage has a price calculator that gives you a rough estimate of what a move will cost based on square footage and the amount of goods you have. There's also a handy online chat tool available, and we received a prompt response when asking for a price estimate. Our quote was $197 per hour for three movers and a truck, along with a $65 travel fee for locations within 50 miles of its Bonita Springs headquarters. No deposit is required. Affordable prefers to have about two weeks' notice for local moves to accommodate scheduling.

Speaking with Naples branch representative Christian Ramos, we learned a job involving three movers and a truck costs $280 per hour with a $100 travel fee. No minimum amount of hours is required, but a deposit is necessary and is based on the size of the job. As for long-distance moves, charges are calculated by "time and material," according to Ramos.

Group of movers from College HUNKS Moving with a moving truck
Group of movers from College HUNKS Moving with a moving truck (College HUNKS Moving)

College HUNKS Moving began as a summer gig for cofounders Omar Soliman and Nick Friedman to make some extra money on the side, and it was officially established in 2003. In the 21 years since its inception, it expanded from a junk-hauling business into a comprehensive international moving service with more than 200 franchise locations in the U.S. and Southern Canada. If you plan on a long-distance move to or from Naples, College HUNKS may well offer the best coverage.

The company will move you on weekdays and weekends but with slightly different pricing. A customer service representative told us its weekday rate is $220 per hour for three movers and a truck. If you're moving on the weekend, it bumps up to $230. Travel fees are extra and are estimated on a per-move basis.

College HUNKS is a big company, and with that comes some advantages and downsides. You aren't going to get the same personal feel as with a locally-owned and operated moving company but the company may be better able to handle a last-minute or emergency move. The company prefers at least two days of notice for local moves but can accommodate faster turnaround as scheduling allows. All employees receive background checks.

David and Chris were AMAZING. In three hours they got more unpacked than I had in three days AND they hauled away the many empty boxes. Highly recommended and I will use College Hunks again if I ever need their services. — Chris Maloney, Google Reviews (⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐)

College HUNKS' long-distance move process begins with a local manager visiting the location to give a free estimate. The company charges by the hour with truck and travel distances accounted for. College HUNKS does require a deposit to reserve a truck.

College HUNKS hasn't abandoned its origins, and it still offers free estimates for junk hauling. According to its website, 70% of everything hauled away is donated or recycled. The company has partnerships with Goodwill Industries, Habitat for Humanity ReStore, and PickupMyDonations.com. It also donates two meals "per service" through US Hunger.

Beyond moving services — residential and commercial — and junk hauling, College HUNKS will pack and unpack boxes or load and unload rental containers. It sells packing supplies and will move your furniture, including assembly and disassembly.

College HUNKS Moving has extensive coverage throughout the U.S. and Southern Canada. It’s a charitable company that offers everything from local and long-distance moving to junk hauling and general moving labor. For the Naples location, our quote was $220 per hour for three local movers and a truck on weekdays; add $10 more per hour on weekends. Long-distance moves are estimated per job and based on travel distance and time. Customer service reps are responsive and the website is easy to navigate.

Pros
  • Has various charitable partnerships
  • Extensive coverage in U.S. and Canada
  • Offers local and long-distance moving, junk hauling, and packing and unloading
Cons
  • Big company that's not as personal as the smaller options
  • Relatively expensive

Movers from Eagle Eye in Naples transporting a wrapped piece of furniture
Movers from Eagle Eye in Naples transporting a wrapped piece of furniture (Eagle Eye Movers)

Eagle Eye Movers opened in 2017 and remains a locally owned and operated moving company servicing Naples. Managing partners Pablo Bailey and Leonardo Mouthon offer a range of services, but its partnership with the National Association of Senior Move Managers (NASMM) makes it stand out.

Moving is stressful for everyone, and that stress can be heightened for senior clientele. To become certified with NASMM, movers must receive specific training and undergo courses for safety, ethics, and standards of practice. All new employees undergo background checks. Whether you're a senior looking for movers to go the extra mile or you're a family member concerned with the well-being of parents or relatives during downsizing, packing, and moving, Eagle Eye should be a top choice.

Eagle Eye's full range of services can also accommodate other customers looking for local or long-distance moves. Hot tubs, pianos, and other large items not always covered are no problem for Eagle Eye, and they have a climate-controlled secure facility with vault storage solutions. Junk removal, loading and unloading, packing and unpacking, and "White Glove" services are available, as well.

Really appreciate the services of Eagle Eye Movers. Thomson, RJ, and Charles were particularly communicative and helpful. I felt secure that these guys would arrive promptly and handle my items with care. Highly recommend. — Are Less, Google Reviews (⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐)

Eagle Eye's main areas of operation include Naples (where it's headquartered), Fort Myers, Cape Coral, Park Shore, and Port Royal. Individual consultations and estimates are the norm for long-distance moves, and that's the case with Eagle Eye. For local moves, come ready with as much information as possible. Eagle Eye says detailed information helps it cater to your individual needs. For this reason, it's tough to give a ballpark estimate of what a move will cost. A deposit is required and varies depending on the size of the job.

The company's BBB accreditation was revoked as of June 2023 due to it not addressing a dispute "forwarded by BBB quickly and in good faith."

Moving companies vary greatly in services offered, price, reliability, availability, and reputation, but our in-depth rating system — combined with our independent research and reporting — will help you find exactly what you need, guaranteed. Picking the right company isn't always easy, and consumers' priorities can vary widely, but basic guidelines exist to help make the right decision.

You usually want to find a moving company that's been in business for at least several years. Moving isn't easy, and the companies that aren't fully committed to the cause usually don't stick around long. You also want to look for a moving company with a strong reputation, dependable reliability, and favorable customer reviews.

Your needs will differ when it comes to availability and services, which is why we included so many different moving companies. Even if our top pick doesn't have a schedule that aligns with your move, you should be able to find a company that does. For example, William C. Huff and College Hunks are most likely to be able to handle last-minute jobs.

With all that in mind, our top pick for moving companies in Naples, FL. is Helping Hand Movers. It started out very small in 2013 with four employees loading and unloading rental trucks and containers, growing to include three 26-foot moving trucks and a moving van. The company has strong employee retention, which means you won't get a team of greenhorns handling your move. If price is your main concern, we suggest going with Demers Moving of SWFL.

The company is available seven days a week and offers residential and commercial moving services with full licensing in Florida. Senior relocation, in-home packing and unpacking, in-home furniture moving, “White Glove” specialty delivery service, and loading and unloading rental containers and trucks are all available services.

With prompt quote request turnarounds and friendly, personal customer service, Helping Hand Movers should be a great fit for your next local move in Naples or Florida.

The moving companies in Naples we spoke with about pricing were friendly and accommodating, but you can expedite the process by knowing a few key ingredients of the move.

You should have ready the current address and the destination address (or a rough idea of the distance between locations), the types of residence or commercial buildings on both ends of the move (be sure to specify if it's a home, apartment, or condo), square footage, and if there are stairs or elevators involved in the move.

You should also prepare to detail any extra services that may be required, such as packing or unpacking, or the purchase of supplies for the move.

Aside from the extra time it takes to navigate stairs or elevators — you should always mention this to the movers before a job so they can factor it into your estimate — you might need to schedule an elevator reservation with the condo board or apartment management company. Be upfront with whoever manages the property to be sure you don't run into scheduling snags.

Any resident of Naples knows how hot and humid the climate gets, and you want to be sure not to pack goods and leave them for too long without temperature- or climate-controlled storage. Humidity can cause mold to form quicker than you imagine — even during short-term storage — so be sure to find a storage unit with proper systems to control heat and moisture.

No, you do not need to apply for a special permit or license to move in Naples. Individual companies, however, must be licensed by the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services to conduct business.

Moving isn't easy, especially in a hot and humid climate, and we recommend extra gratitude for a job well done. While it's ultimately up to you whether or not you want to tip, you should generally consider about 10% to 20% of the total moving cost. You can tip the movers individually, or you can let the team sort it out as they see fit. If the movers carefully handle delicate or sensitive items or tackle a huge job, you might consider more. The same goes for long-distance moves.

Offering a cold drink or snack during the move can also go a long way.
