Customer Reviews by Google

Royal Hawaiian did a great job packing up our home! The whole moving team was respectful and courteous. They showed plenty of care for our things/home, while still being extremely efficient. Overall it was a very thorough job and a pleasant experience for us!

We used Royal Hawaiian movers to move from California to Honolulu in June 2025. They connected us with a local mover in California that was excellent, and then took care of everything on this side of the move. We had to store our belongings for a couple months, and that was not an issue and not expensive. The team moving in was excellent and very efficient. Communication with the front office during the entire process was very good. I would recommend them for any move.

Honolulu Movers is top notch! They called me as they were on their way and came on time. They had to go up and down four flights of stairs with no elevator carrying all of our large items with no complaints. They transported all of our stuff to the new location and got there very timely to unload and place all of our furnishings in our new apartment exactly where we wanted it. They also set up our bed. They had extra boxes and materials if we needed it. They were friendly and professional and a GREAT help. Prices were reasonable and they finished the job very quickly. They were able to do the job on a Sunday. Truly a great experience from start to finish, including the setting up the appointment and the confirmation call. I would DEFINITELY use them again if I need to. HIGHLY recommended!

I had a great time working with Honolulu movers. From the very beginning they were very flexible and accommodating. Coordinating strict elevator reservations in Honolulu high rises is not easy and Courtney was very patient even with multiple last min changes. My movers Dillon and Randan were very efficient. You can tell they have a lot of experience and their moving process is seamless. They took a lot less time than expected and took care of my furniture like it’s their own. Pricing was very transparent, no hidden fees or surprises. Will use this company for my future moves!

How to Choose a Moving Company in Wahiawā

🛡️ License and authority

If you’re moving a long distance across state lines, watch out for USDOT or MC numbers on the moving company website. If it is a local move or inter-island moving job, verify the mover is authorized to do business in Hawaiʻi. Choose companies that are fully licensed and insured.

📄 Insurance and valuation

Warehouses have basic insurance coverage for your belongings that is typically worth less than $1 or $0.60 per pound; full-value protection costs extra. Make sure you know what is covered and what full value protection costs; knowing the choices up front will alleviate anxiety in case there is a problem.

💰 Reliable estimates

For any moving job, you want a company who will survey your possessions in-person or through video call, an estimate without ever seeing the items is not a good sign. Expect comprehensive pricing that includes line items (stairs, long carries, etc.) and specify whether it is a binding estimate or not to exceed.

⭐ Reputation you can verify

Search online (Google, BBB) and with any available complaint history from public sources where you can find information about a company’s reputation. You are looking for consistent communication, on-time delivery, and the pricing is consistent with the quoted price.

📦 Scope and access

During the survey process make sure to point on any tight corners, stair sets that may be steep, elevators, or parking restrictions in the area of your future dwelling. Verify what services (packing/unpacking, crating, storage, disassembly/assembly of furniture, etc.) as well as time-frames for delivery.

🚚 Who does the work

You want trained in-house moving crews and company owned vehicles versus a rental or unknown subcontractors.

We will continue refining our rankings, doing the stressful legwork of evaluating and vetting movers, so everything is pre-planned and organized ahead of your moving day and you will compare great options without any guesswork.

Our Methodology

We have taken an applied rubric to the island realities: same island, inter-island, and mainland-Hawai’i, with a priority on real outcomes to ensure the moves are as smooth as possible and as efficient as possible, on time, and with the utmost care.

  • Customer Satisfaction: We evaluate recent consumer reviews and the complaint histories available in public sites to assess reliability by evaluating the crew’s timeliness, communication skills with the customer, and adherence to quoted prices. We also evaluate if the mover has any suggestions for a dispute-resolution procedure, and offers methods for valuing property in transit.
  • Standard Services: A full-service move includes packing and unpacking the contents of one’s home, arranging for the transport of the contents of that home, arranging for storage, and all assembly of furniture—all of which are accomplished by professionals who understand how to adequately pack using the correct boxes and pads and bubble wrap.
  • Reputation and Compliance: We confirm that our partners are properly licensed with insurance, whether by USDOT/MC for interstate moves, or the appropriate Hawai’i agency for in-state and inter-island moves. Trustual indicators are important, like a BBB A rating or ProMover rating, which help separate the best operators from the ordinary ones.
  • Transparent Pricing: We prefer a clear and transparent pricing structure for each service. We require detail in the formation of detailed “checklists” to ensure transparency on costs, additional charges must be spelled out like steps, long carries, shuttles, elevator time, parking permits, fuel, port/drainage fees, barge fees, storage, etc.
  • Pertinent Add-Ons: Those the companies present provide custom crating, vehicle and oversized handling, debris removal, and minimal-handoff options focusing on moving lives, not just things.
  • Mover Type: We care about whether a company is a carrier or broker and/or owner/operators or subcontractors. We want a company-owned fleet, not rental trucks or some other method.
  • Pricing transparency: Written, line-item estimates with accessorials (stairs, long carries, shuttles, fuel) and clear binding vs. not-to-exceed terms.
  • Last, of course, we will only prioritize vendors that meet these criteria and can repeatedly deliver moves that exceed expectations.

What Customers Say About Us

Maya Gross
American Eagle Moving assisted with my move from Portland to Honolulu. I completed the online form, and received a free, no-obligation estimate from three vetted carriers on the same day! Each of the quotes was transparent, and honest pricing (no hidden fees) and upfront about the ocean leg, that we needed a port/drainage, and the window for delivery. I selected one of the options to proceed with, and the complete job went without a hitch, on time and with incredible care. Exactly like a move should feel – smooth, with little to no hassle!
Keoni Kamaka
Kailua-Kona to Kīhei appeared straightforward, until elevators, multiple “COIs,” and barge schedules appeared. The crew kept it all well anticipated and organized beforehand, flagged the “estimate sight unseen” as a cautionary note, and matched me with a long distance mover that was fully bonded and insured to carry my belongings. They explained everything in detail: the size of the crew, materials, and all timing, and I can assure you the final invoice matched the estimate. The actual moving day was calm, efficient, and very well organized.
T. Ramirez
This was my third military relocation and for the first time, I wasn’t stressed. They sent a lot of options upfront, all quotes were clear, and line-itemed – stairs, long carries, shuttles, fuel, etc., and even let you know which teams used company-owned trucks versus rentals. Communication was great and consistent from pickup to delivery, and all my belongings arrived safely, on time, and with great care.
