Local Moving

"A local move is any move within 100 miles from the pickup location to the delivery location."

Pricing – A local move is charged by the hour – or in essence the time required to complete the move. The hourly rate is determined by the number of movers and trucks required or requested.

The time begins when the crew arrives to your pickup location. The time ends when all the goods are unloaded off the truck at the delivery location and set up to your satisfaction.

Set Up - Our crews will provide all the necessary disassembly and reassembly to make sure you feel right at home right away. our crews can provide unpacking and extensive set up services.

Drive Time - All local moves in the state of California are subject to a double-drive time charge. All this means is the drive time between the customers pickup location and delivery is doubled. For instance a 15 minute drive is doubled to 30 minutes. All time is prorated to increments of 15 minutes. The reason for this double drive time charge is to compensate for the drive to the pickup location and the drive back from the delivery location which the customer is not charged for.

Free Protection Materials – While your goods are in our care they will be wrapped in high quality quilted moving blankets. Each truck is equipped with enough moving blankets to cover all pieces necessary. The blankets are returned at the end of the move so there is no charge for them. If requested, blankets can be sold at the current market price.

Valuation – All local moves include free valuation of $0.60 per pound per article. What this means is your goods are covered for loss or damage at $0.60 times the weight of the item involved. If you are interested in purchasing additional insurance we have higher valuation plans available. Please ask a representative to assist you in finding the plan that works best for you.
