Full-Service Moving

You may be starting in California, but how far are you headed? If it’s over 100 miles or across state lines, you’ll need long distance movers. And when you need long distance moving on a budget, Pricing Van Lines is here to help.

Our long distance movers in California come equipped with everything they need to make your long distance move a success. They’re also carefully vetted for quality assurance. We may be in the cheap moving industry, but that doesn’t mean we’ll cheap out on quality.

Full Packing Services

Packing is a pain. Why not let the pros handle it? When you choose full packing services from Pricing Van Lines, you’re getting easy and efficient packing at a fraction of the price.

Just because we offer cheap packing doesn’t mean you get cheap quality. Our California packing team will show up with sturdy boxes and all the extra padding and bubble wrap you’ll need. Just tell us where you want the boxes when they’re all wrapped up.

Storage Solutions

You’re ready to move, but do you have enough space at your new place for all your stuff? Downsizing to save money is one thing, but if you’ve got essentials you just can’t live without – and you don’t quite have the square footage for it – Pricing Van Lines can help.

Our secure storage options make moving easier than ever. Need some more time or space while you figure out the new floorplan? No problem. Choose from a variety of storage unit sizes, and book cheap storage in California that doesn’t skimp on safety and security.

Loading and unloading

A great long distance move may start with planning and prep, but you can’t get that carefully-wrapped sofa into a truck without a great team handling the loading and unloading. But with Pricing Van Lines, you can get quality loading and unloading at affordable rates.

The moving teams at Pricing Van Lines are well-trained, and they know their way around every step of the moving process. This includes knowing how to efficiently and quickly load all of your items into the truck, and repeat each step in reverse once they reach your destination.

Shuttle Services

“Why do I need a moving shuttle?” Because your city said so.

Moving into a big city means dealing with some complicated parking, loading, and unloading restrictions. Some cities don’t like having big ol’ moving trucks blocking their tiny little streets, so your movers will have to use a moving shuttle to ferry everything back and forth between your place and the main truck. Thankfully, Pricing Van Lines offers shuttle services that won’t break the bank. It’s an extra step for your movers, and it usually comes with an extra fee – but we’ll keep that extra price manageable.

Last Minute Moving

Psycho roommate? Last-minute job offer? Just plain procrastinated too much? Don’t worry. Pricing Van Lines offers last minute moving you can trust, and it won’t cost an arm and a leg either.

Our last minute moving teams can get you packed up and on the road without missing a beat. They’ll show up on time, and they’ll take care of all that packing, loading, and hauling with maximum efficiency. Whatever the reason, you can count on Pricing Van Lines for last minute moves.

Specialized Moving Services

Every move is unique. Rather than a one-size-fits-all moving plan, Pricing Van Lines lets you build a completely custom move. Get everything you need, and don’t get charged for all the stuff you don’t.

Specialty Item Shipping

Pianos, pool tables, art, the list goes on. Choose Pricing Van Lines for your specialty item shipping, and get more TLC for less USD.

Disassembly and Reassembly

Let’s be honest, you threw out those instructions years ago. Our team can help you disassemble and reassemble your furniture with all the right tools and techniques.

Small Moves

Some movers have a minimum weight restriction, and they won’t help you move unless your stuff meets a certain weight. Not us. We can handle small moves with ease.

Important Questions About Moving in California

How much should I tip movers in California?

For California movers, it’s a good idea to tip between 15% and 20% of your total moving cost, to be divvied up evenly across your whole moving crew. Moving is hard work, and in the moving industry, tips are expected unless your mover has explicitly turned them down.

Where is the cheapest place to buy moving boxes in California?

If you want cheap moving boxes in California, Pricing Van Lines has you covered. You may be able to pick up some boxes from a UPS or your nearest hardware store – and you can scrounge around for free ones from local stores and offices. Fortunately, Pricing Van Lines always provides high-quality boxes and packing supplies, and we’ll drop it all off right at your doorstep.

What can I do to make my long distance move faster?

One of the best ways to make your long distance move faster is to schedule smart. You’ve lived in California for a long time, so you should understand when traffic is at its worst. If you’ve done your own packing (or if you’ve already had the pros take care of it), make sure you stage all those finished boxes in an easy-to-access corner or bedroom.

When should I schedule my move?

We recommend scheduling your move 2 to 3 months in advance. It sounds like a long window, but think of it in terms of weekends: You’re only getting 8 – 12 weekends to get your affairs in order before the big day. When was the last time you had 8 weekends in a row without something inconvenient coming up?

How can I make the moving process easier?

The best way to simplify your move is to just get started as early as you can. Even before you book, you can downsize and sell off your old or unwanted items (this will save you money on your move, too, since you won’t be charged to move all that extra stuff!). We also recommend keeping all of your packed boxes in one staging area, whether it’s a bedroom or just a corner.
