FLAT WRITTEN RATES

Berkeley splits into two move types: the flats, which run fast, and the hills, which need planning. August and May book out weeks ahead around the Cal calendar. Our East Bay movers quote hills homes with the stairs and switchbacks already priced in.

What Makes a Berkeley Move Tricky

Streets above Spruce get too narrow for a 26-foot truck, so we shuttle with a smaller one.
Student season (August, May) fills the calendar weeks out.
Pre-war houses have steep porch stairs and low interior doorways.

Typical Berkeley Flat Rates

Home size	Typical crew	Flat band
Studio	2 movers	$495–$640
1-bedroom	2 movers	$640–$890
2-bedroom	2–3 movers	$940–$1,350
3-bedroom	3 movers	$1,390–$1,990

Every band is quoted in writing before the date, and the $100 deposit comes off the bill. Details on the local moving page.

Three Things That Speed Up Move Day

Around the semester, book two to three weeks ahead.
Tell us if your street fits a large truck; a photo settles it.
Pack books in small boxes; hills stairs punish heavy ones.

"This was my second time hiring the crew within a 3 year period. They have gotten pricier over time but still economical compared to the other outrageously priced companies. Sean and crew showed up promptly. My move took 7 hours and 2 trips instead of the anticipated one trip 4 hours. They completed the job without any complaints and a skip in their steps. However if you need to move regular furniture within the city they will do an amazing job. I highly recommend."

Yelp Review · Oakland, CA · Jun 2021

"Quick and easy to schedule. They were one of moving companies that don't have any weird hidden fees, very straight forward hourly fee that includes everything. I got a 2 man crew for a 1 bedroom move (and I have some heavy furniture). They came in the morning as scheduled and moved everything quickly by the afternoon. They fit my big flat screen TVs between furnitures and no issues. They also helped with putting my mattress back together! Everything went smoothly and I am recommending them to all my friends!"

Yelp Review · Covina, CA · Jul 2019

"These guys were great and super friendly. First time we hire them and will call them for the next move. They moved us in/out quicker than I thought! (House to small 1 bedroom apartment with heavy furniture... including a huge Ikea wardrobe that wasn't made to be moved around). Everything arrived in the same condition (even this really old cabinet that I didn't think was going to make it but is now in the perfect spot). Scheduling was also very easy and Sean answered every call and question. Excited to go to their concerts once the pandemic ends....always happy to support musicians. thanks Sam, Nate & Sean !!"
