Meet the crew

Hugo and the crew, based in Vista

Hugo runs Hugo's Affordable Moving Labor out of Vista, working with Luis and the rest of the crew. Customers talk about the same things: they show up ready to work, wrap the furniture, put floor protection down and carry it all where you want it.

Read what customers say on the reviews page, then call to talk through your move.

How it works

How a move with us works

  1. Call or text with the date and what is moving

    Tell us the day, the addresses and what needs to go. Calls are answered 24/7.

  2. We protect floors and wrap furniture

    Runners and mats go down, furniture is wrapped in moving blankets and shrink wrap, and everything is taped secure.

  3. We load the truck, container or storage unit tight

    Heavy and tall pieces go in first, wrapped and packed snug so nothing shifts on the road.

  4. We unload, carry in and set up

    Beds and furniture go where you want them, set up so you can sleep in your new place.

What customers say about Hugo and the crew

Real words from people we moved, left as written.

Fantastic company. We haven't moved in 16 years but they made the day go very smoothly. Very polite and they all work hard together to get it done. They took extra care with our valuables wrapped them well . Up and down the stairs all day . We treated them all to a well deserved lunch . This company has moved three other family members of ours . We highly appreciate them .

Needed some help moving my garage items to storage. They were able to come out last minute and did a great job. Very professional, treated my belongings like their own, and took the extra time to wrap everything and clean up afterward. Great personalities, strong work ethic, and overall great service. Highly recommend!

Hugo and Luis showed up early, ready to work, and did an absolutely amazing job! They were extremely careful to keep everything well wrapped and protected from dings and damage, while making sure all of my moving supplies were properly accommodated. They never stopped working and were incredibly efficient from start to finish! ...

Hugo's movers was exactly what we needed for our move. We drove our UHaul ourselves and got stuck in traffic, and he was super flexible in timing. They arrived right when we did and unloaded and assembled everything really efficiently. Everything was taken care of really well, no dings on the walls, and they put projective mats on the floors. It was so nice to have our beds and everything set up the night we moved in. ...

Hugo is the real deal! He and his team are kind, professional, efficient and careful. He made me feel like a member of his family and I knew I was in good hands from start to finish. He even moved extra items for me that we had not initially discussed, like clothes and my e-bike, which made my life so much easier and saved me from having to make any future trips. ...

Hugo and Luis showed up promptly on time and made sure to put a runner down to protect the floor. All of our furniture was expertly taken care of and wrapped/shrink wrapped for protection. Hugo even made a custom box for a prized possession that I was worried about packing. They were very efficient and friendly so I would definitely hire them again and would highly recommend them!! Thank you!!!

... I recently moved from Vista to Temecula, and from start to finish they handled everything. Moving is usually stressful, but they made the entire experience smooth and worry-free. They showed up on time, worked incredibly fast, and treated all of my furniture and belongings with real care everything was wrapped and protected like it was their own. ...

... They showed up on time, were super friendly, and made the whole moving process way less stressful than I expected. They worked hard, took care of my stuff, and made sure everything ended up where I wanted it. ...

Hugo and his crew did a great job! Great communication while coordinating, went above and beyond to professional wrap my furniture to ensure no damages, and placed the furniture in my home gently in the location requested. Couldn't be happier with their service. Will be using again for other jobs. Thanks, Hugo!

Questions

Moving help questions, answered

What affects the cost of a move?

The price depends on how many movers you need, how many hours the job takes, how much furniture and how many boxes there are, and whether stairs, long carries or a storage unit are involved. Call or text with the date and what is moving, and Hugo will talk through a quote for your job.

What do I need to have ready?

Book your rental truck or container before moving day, and have the date and a list of what is moving. We handle the loading, carrying, wrapping and unloading. If you want help boxing things up, mention it when you call so the crew plans enough time.

Do you bring a truck?

No. You book the truck, container or storage unit, and we do the labor: loading, carrying and unloading. If you need something other than that, ask Hugo about other options when you call, and he will tell you what is possible for your move.

What areas do you serve?

We are based in Vista and work across North San Diego County, including Oceanside, Carlsbad, Escondido and San Marcos. The crew also works in San Diego, Poway, Encinitas, Chula Vista and other parts of the county, plus parts of Orange and Riverside counties. Ask about your town.

How far ahead should I book?

Call or text as soon as you know your moving date, since the crew's calendar depends on what is already booked. We answer calls 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, so you can ask about your date any time. A specific day is not set until we talk through your job.

Do you protect floors and furniture?

Yes. The crew puts down floor runners and mats, wraps furniture in moving blankets and shrink wrap, and tapes the blankets on so they stay put. Doorways are protected too, so the path out of your home and into the new one stays clean. Customers mention this often in their reviews.
