Soon Seng Transport & Movers
Soon Seng is a family mover that’s been going since 1990, with its own warehouse for storage. Reviewers praise large, fast crews, careful wrapping and helpful site surveys. The catch is that the care isn’t universal: critical reviews mention damaged furniture and electronics with no compensation and reluctance to give an itemised written quote. A recent reviewer wrote, “They spoilt my LG monitor, my massage chair...” (Google review, 2026).
A good pick for a bigger move where you want a large crew and storage under one roof. Ask about insurance and damage claims before you book, and compare quotes if budget is tight.

CYC Movers
CYC has been moving homes and offices since 2003 and also handles storage. It says every move is insured, with basic or comprehensive cover. Repeat customers praise punctual, organised, good-humoured crews and careful wrapping. Bigger jobs are where it can come unstuck: one customer on a large move says the crew was short-handed, and a recent reviewer reports scratched furniture and unhelpful after-sales replies. On that large move, “Only six movers showed up, which was far too few for the job.” (Google review, 2025).
A solid choice for a typical HDB or condo move with a well-established firm. For a large home, confirm crew size and boxes in writing, and ask which insurance your quote includes.

LS House Movers
LS House Movers is a younger company, registered in 2020, working seven days a week. Many repeat customers praise a responsive coordinator, fast and careful crews, and prices below other quotes. Being reachable is the recurring problem: critical reviews describe unanswered calls, a surveyor who didn’t turn up and a price that changed on moving day. One reviewer wrote, “Please don't put contact number if you don't even pick up phone calls!” (Google review, 2023).
Worth a quote if price matters and you don’t mind chasing a little. Get the price in writing, and check you’re dealing with the right company, since a separate LS Logistic listing exists.

SgHomz Movers
SgHomz moves HDB flats, condos, landed homes and offices, and takes on awkward items like pianos, safes and fish tanks. Reviewers describe punctual, polite crews, thorough wrapping and good value, The catch is that the final bill doesn’t always match: a handful of reviews say it came in above the quote, even after a survey. One customer wrote, “Quoted pricing and actual pricing totally different as a result.” (Google review, 2025).
A good fit for a value move, especially with tricky items like a piano or fish tank. Ask for any stair-carry and disposal surcharges to be written into the quote.

Shin Movers & Logistics
Shin Movers is run by founders with more than 15 years in the trade, and it says quotes are itemised before you confirm, with boxes, wrapping and basic dismantling included. Reviewers praise quick, careful crews and pricing that matched the quote. The catch is in the details: one happy reviewer says it sometimes asks for more after the job. A storage customer objected to paying an extra pro-rated month: “Is this a new revenue source?” (Google review, 2025).
A good pick for a smaller move where you want a clear, itemised quote over WhatsApp. Get the full scope in writing, and if you’re storing items, ask how months are charged.

Yong Shen Movers
Yong Shen handles house, office and piano moves, storage and some international moves, and many reviews describe fast, friendly crews who wrap furniture carefully. Older forum threads recommend it for large moves. Pricing is where it lets people down: quotes are often given by lorry load from WhatsApp photos, and several reviewers say extra loads appeared on the final bill without explanation. One reviewer wrote, “Admin not helpful to make the cost transparent.” (Google review, 2025).
Fine if you want a quick quote from photos and a capable crew. To avoid surprises, ask what each extra load costs, or request a site survey, before you confirm.

M&P International Freights
M&P is a freight forwarder founded in 2006, so it’s really for moves into or out of Singapore rather than across town. It handles packing, shipping, customs paperwork and delivery at the other end, plus pet and vehicle relocation. Household moves get a mixed reception, though, with complaints about damaged furniture, missing items and destination charges not mentioned upfront. One customer wrote, “They also poorly handled my dining table and take zero accountability.” (Google review, 2025).
Worth considering for an overseas relocation, especially with pets or a car. Get all destination charges and the claims process in writing; for a local move, we’d look elsewhere.

Vimbox Movers
Vimbox handles house, office and international moves, with surveys in person or by video and storage if you need it. Positive reviews praise sturdy boxes, large crews and careful wrapping, and some expats have used it for several moves. Reliability doesn’t always match, though: critical reviews describe late arrivals, paid extras not done, damage with no compensation and even a no-show on moving day. One reviewer wrote, “Move was outsourced to a smaller company without any notification.” (Google review, 2024).
An option for expats who want a full-service local or international move. Confirm in writing who will actually do the move and what’s covered if something is damaged.

12Move
12Move is a heavily advertised mover that does house, office and room moves, and even same-day moves when a crew is free. Many reviews praise fast, friendly crews and good value for small moves. The price doesn’t always hold, though: several reviewers say more loads were needed on the day than quoted, and one quoted 3 to 3.5 trucks says the move took 7. One wrote, “I was suddenly told that my items were actually 1 full load” (Google review, 2026).
A good fit for a small or last-minute move, and weekdays are cheaper. For a larger home, get the load count and the cost of any extra load in writing first.

Shalom Movers
Shalom is one of Singapore’s oldest and largest movers, running since 1982. It gives a fixed, itemised price after a free survey, and many reviews praise careful wrapping and helpful surveyors. The critical reviews are serious and often recent, though: movers not turning up on the agreed date, sometimes twice, prices raised on the day, and an office that stops replying. One family wrote, “On the second scheduled moving date, the movers failed to turn up again.” (Google review, 2026).
Worth a quote if you want a long-established firm and a fixed price. Book well ahead and confirm the date in writing, and if your date can’t slip, keep a backup in mind.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a house move cost in Singapore?
On this list, the movers that publish prices start at about $190 to $200 for a half lorry load and about $300 for a full load, usually with loaned boxes, wrapping and basic dismantling included. Reviewers and forum users mention about $150 for a single room, a little over $400 for a small two-stop move, $700 to $1,000 for a 3-bedroom flat and about $1,200 for a 4-room move-out with disposal. Condo moves are quoted from about $800. Most movers don't say whether GST is included.
How are moving quotes worked out?
Most movers quote after a site survey, a video call or photos sent on WhatsApp, and many charge by lorry load. The quote goes up for stair carries, long pushes where the lorry can't park close, disposal, storage, packing and moves outside normal hours. Photo-based quotes are the ones most often exceeded on the day, so ask for a survey for a full home.
How far ahead should I book a mover?
Movers on this list suggest booking two to four weeks ahead, or at least a month ahead, especially for weekends and public holidays. Weekday moves are often cheaper. A deposit usually secures the date and is deducted from the final bill.
What should I watch out for when hiring movers?
The most common complaint in reviews is a final bill well above the quote, often because more loads or lorries were needed than estimated. Get the number of loads, the cost of each extra load and any surcharges in writing, ask who will actually do the move, and check what insurance covers and how damage claims work. Carry cash, jewellery and documents yourself.
