How much will my move cost?

The cost of your move is determined by three main factors: Distance – The farther your belongings need to travel, the higher the transportation costs. Long-haul moves require more fuel, time, and logistics coordination. Total Cubic Footage – Pricing is based on the volume of items being moved. Larger shipments take up more truck space and require more labor, which increases the overall cost. Delivery Urgency - If you need expedited delivery or guaranteed arrival dates, that adds to the price since it requires priority scheduling and faster turnaround. By combining these three elements—distance, shipment size, and urgency-we can provide you with a customized estimate that reflects your specific moving needs.

Do you offer packing and unpacking services?

Yes, we do. We provide both packing and unpacking services to make your move easier. Please note that an additional fee may apply. If you’d like this service, be sure to let your sales representative know in advance so we can bring the necessary equipment and packing materials on moving day.

How far in advance should I book my move?

While we often accommodate last-minute moves, we recommend booking your move at least 10 days in advance. This ensures we have availability and can properly schedule the crew, trucks, and any additional services you may need. Planning ahead also gives you peace of mind knowing everything is reserved and ready for moving day.

Do you handle long-distance moves directly or through partners?

We personally handle 99% of our long-distance moves from start to finish. In certain cases, we may work with one of our trusted sister companies if it allows us to provide you with a better rate or more efficient shipping option. Whether we manage the move ourselves or coordinate with a partner, you can count on us to oversee the process and ensure your belongings are delivered safely and on time.

What payment options do you accept?

We accept several convenient payment options, including cash, credit cards, money orders, ACH transfers, and cashier’s checks. A deposit may be required to secure your moving date, with the remaining balance typically due upon delivery.

Do you offer local moves within Orange County?

No. This location is dedicated to long‑distance moves only (interstate and OC → Bay Area intrastate).

Why don’t you offer local OC moves?

We specialize in long‑distance logistics, equipment, and routing. Focusing on interstate and OC → Bay Area intrastate moves keeps scheduling tighter, pricing clearer, and crews optimized for longer routes.

Do you provide packing services from Orange County?

No packing. We do provide loading/unloading labor, furniture assembly/disassembly, and careful transport for long‑distance moves.

Which destinations do you serve?

Nevada, Utah, Texas, Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado and other U.S. destinations. For California intrastate, we currently serve the Bay Area only.

Do you handle specialized or military moves?

Yes—pianos, safes, fine art/antiques, lab & medical, server/IT, estates, and military relocations from Orange County.

City-Specific Tips & Long-Distance Moving FAQs for Orange County

Do Irvine or Anaheim apartments require elevator reservations?

Many mid/high-rise properties in Irvine Spectrum, Platinum Triangle (Anaheim), and near major business centers require elevator reservations and a COI (Certificate of Insurance). Check with your property manager at least 7 days in advance for elevator time windows, loading dock access, and COI requirements so your long-distance move from Orange County runs smoothly.

What is a reasonable moving budget for a long-distance move?

A reasonable moving budget depends on distance, home size, and how much work you do yourself. For long-distance moves from Orange County, many households budget several thousand dollars for a 2–3 bedroom home and more for larger homes or specialty items. You can reduce costs by packing yourself and being accurate with your inventory so we can match the right-size truck and crew.

How much does it cost to move a 2,000 sq ft house from Orange County?

There is no one-size-fits-all price because cost depends on route, access, and how full your home is. A 2,000 sq ft home going from Orange County to nearby states (like Nevada or Arizona) is generally less than a cross-country move to Texas or the East Coast. We do not offer packing services, so your quote will focus on loading, long-distance transportation, and unloading only. Share your inventory and destination for a precise, up-front quote.

Is full packing service worth it if I’m leaving Orange County?

Full packing service is convenient but adds a significant cost. Since we do not provide packing, many of our OC customers save money by packing themselves and hiring us for the heavy lifting and long-distance transport. If your priority is the lowest overall cost, packing your own boxes is usually more cost-effective than paying for full-service packing.

What is cheaper than U‑Haul or pods for moving out of state?

DIY truck rentals and pods can look cheaper at first, but you pay for truck rental, fuel, taxes, insurance, lodging, food, and all the labor. A dedicated long-distance mover from Orange County can often be competitively priced once you include everything. For many families, the best value is professional movers for long-distance routes and doing their own packing to keep costs down.

What’s the cheapest way to move your stuff to another state from OC?

The cheapest option typically involves:

Packing everything yourself, using free or low‑cost boxes.
Decluttering and selling or donating items you don’t truly need.
Choosing flexible dates to avoid peak-season pricing.

For many OC residents, a hybrid approach—self-packing plus a professional long-distance mover—balances cost, safety, and time better than a full DIY truck rental.

What is the most expensive part of moving long-distance?

For long-distance moves from Orange County, the biggest cost drivers are distance, total volume/weight, and labor. Fuel, tolls, and driver hours add up quickly on interstate routes. Full-service packing, storage, and multiple trips can also increase cost, which is why we focus on efficient, direct long-distance moves with no packing or local add‑ons.

Are pods worth it compared to hiring long-distance movers?

Pods and containers can work if you need flexible loading time or temporary on-site storage. However, they may be more expensive than expected once delivery, storage, and extended rental fees are added. If your main goal is to relocate from Orange County to another state on a defined schedule, a direct long-distance truck with a professional crew is often more predictable and competitive in price.

What is the cheapest day to hire a moving company?

Weekdays outside the first and last few days of the month are usually the most cost‑effective. Fridays, weekends, and end‑of‑month dates are in highest demand. If you have flexibility, scheduling your Orange County long-distance move midweek and mid‑month can help you secure better availability and pricing.
