Questions About Local Moving
The best time to schedule a summer move, in terms of availability and costs, is usually early or late summer, like May or September. These months often have lower demand and more competitive pricing.
It is recommended to book long distance relocation services at least 2-3 months in advance to ensure availability and proper planning for your move.
Moving in winter can be more challenging than in other seasons for several reasons. One of the main challenges is inclement weather, such as snow and ice, which can make it difficult to safely load and unload your belongings from the moving truck. Additionally, shorter days and longer nights can make it more difficult to move in low-light conditions. Winter is also a popular time for the holidays, which can create scheduling conflicts and make it harder to find available moving services. Despite these challenges, moving in the winter can also offer advantages such as lower rates and greater availability of moving services.
To move during the winter months, it is important to take precautions such as: planning ahead for the weather conditions, keeping an emergency kit on hand, having snow tires or chains for the moving truck, and hiring professional movers with experience in winter moving. It’s also important to keep in mind that some roads may be closed due to snow or ice, so it’s important to have a backup plan and route in case of unexpected delays.
Items such as flammable liquids, perishable foods, and valuables like jewelry or important documents should not be packed for movers. Plan to transport these items yourself.

Our moving trucks require a vertical clearance of at least 13.5 to 14 feet (approximately 4.1 to 4.3 meters).
Some neighborhoods in cities such as San Francisco require parking permit from the city in order for moving trucks to park.

For SF, parking permits can be obtained from SFMTA and for one moving truck we ask that you reserve 30 linear feet.

It depends on the definition of long distance. If a long distance means a few hundred miles to another city, it should be done in a couple of days. If the move is across a few state lines, it is going to take longer. If it is cross-country, add even more days. And if it is intercontinental, it could take many weeks, from start to finish. The only way to get a clear picture and understanding of how long the move will take is to contact a professional moving company. Based on the distance, the number of possessions to be moved and other factors, it will be able to give you an accurate timeframe.
