How to choose
- Call three. Start with the top-rated movers, then read their recent Google reviews, not just the stars. Give each the same details (the form below writes them for you).
- Check the license. In-state household movers need a California permit. It takes two minutes in the official lookup. How to check.
- Get it in writing. Hourly rate, crew size, minimum hours, travel fee, stairs and packing, before move day.
- Ask about coverage. What the mover pays if something breaks, and whether you can buy more.
- Moving a piano? Not every mover handles one. Our sister site lists piano movers in the San Francisco area, ranked by piano experience.
