San Diego moving companies at a glance

We found 111 moving companies based in the San Diego area that are registered with FMCSA to carry household goods, have updated their registration in the last three years and run at least one truck. Together they report 559 trucks.

  • 32 hold active interstate household-goods authority, so they can legally carry a move to another state.
  • 77 are registered for moves within California only.
  • 34 have been on the USDOT register for 10 years or more. The median is 6 years. The longest-registered, The CMS Companies, was added in 1974.
  • 23 run five or more trucks. Larger fleets usually have more scheduling flexibility, but size alone says nothing about quality.

Where they're based: San Diego (59), Poway (10), El Cajon (9), Chula Vista (6), Lemon Grove (5), Santee (4), National City (3), Carlsbad (3), San Marcos (3), Lakeside (2).

How companies are listed

Listings come from the FMCSA Company Census File, the federal register of companies with a USDOT number (data as of 2026-11-15). We include active registrations that list household goods as cargo, have a moving-related business name, a registration updated within three years, and at least one truck. Order is by fleet size by default. We don't accept payment for placement on this list. If we ever show sponsored companies, they will be clearly labelled. A listing is not an endorsement, and the register doesn't include customer reviews or prices. Report an error or request a correction.

How to choose a mover in San Diego

  1. Moving to another state? Use the Interstate filter above and check the company's FMCSA record.
  2. Moving within California? Check the state license too. See below.
  3. Get at least three written estimates after a video or in-home survey.
  4. Compare valuation coverage, the type of estimate and the delivery window, not just the price.
  5. Avoid companies that ask for a large deposit or quote without seeing your belongings. Scam red flags.

Local moving considerations in San Diego

Coastal parking

Beach neighborhoods have tight parking and narrow streets. Ask movers how they will park and whether a smaller truck is needed.

Military moves

Service members on PCS orders usually move through the military's own household goods program. Check what is covered before hiring a mover yourself.

California mover permit

Movers working within California must hold a permit from the Bureau of Household Goods and Services.

Hills and stairs

Many homes have exterior stairs or steep driveways. Include this in your request for a more accurate estimate.

Licensing: checking a San Diego mover

California requires every company that moves household goods within the state to hold a Household Mover permit from the Bureau of Household Goods and Services (BHGS), which took over this role from the CPUC. Movers must show their permit number (often called a Cal-T number) on their vehicles. Use the BHGS license search to check the permit is active and the mover is insured.

For a move to another state, check the USDOT number on FMCSA. Step-by-step guide.

What movers cost in San Diego

A local 2-bedroom move within San Diego often falls roughly in the $950–$2,250 range, depending on access, stairs and hours. Longer moves are priced by weight and distance:

Frequently asked questions

Who licenses San Diego movers?

The Bureau of Household Goods and Services (BHGS) for moves within California. Interstate movers must be registered with FMCSA.

At over 100 road miles it is often priced as a long-distance move, but some movers price it hourly. Ask how each one charges.

How many moving companies are there in San Diego?

Our directory lists 111 companies based in the San Diego area that are registered with FMCSA for household goods, with a current registration and at least one truck (FMCSA data as of 2026-11-15). 32 of them hold active interstate authority.

How do I know if a San Diego mover is legitimate?

Look it up by USDOT number on FMCSA. Each listing above links to its FMCSA record. For moves within California, also check the state license. Get a written estimate and avoid large upfront deposits.
