"Utilizing All Service Moving for the move was a very positive experience. They had good communication, answering several questions prior to the move and did a final confirmation just prior to the move date. As for the physical move itself, Jose, Abraham, and Alberto were polite, diligent, and careful moving the many items, and managed to complete the move more quickly than anticipated."

"The two movers, Jamal and Michael, were pleasant, respectful and very careful with Mom's belongings, such as her treasured Grandfather clock.  They accomplished the load-out in under 3 hours and had everything unloaded, the bed put together and all the major furniture pieces in place in the new place within a 6 hour timeframe.  It's the first move I've experienced where everything went according to plan, nothing was lost or damaged, and we would definitely recommend Best Moving Service to all my friends!

"Everything went just as stated when I agreed to this move. On time, quick and careful. Both movers were professional and friendly. Placed piano in exact location I wanted at destination. All for a quite reasonable cost, nearly half of another quote I got."

"We had a tight timeline moving within Oxnard and they fit us in same week. Showed up when they said they would, which honestly is half the battle. The lead guy was professional and the rest of the team kept things moving. Solid company."

Moving questions, answered by experts

If you’re using a moving company, the best move in date typically occurs on a weekday in the middle of the month between September and April. Mid-month moves on weekdays are less popular and therefore less costly, and the weather will usually be less severe in the fall or spring. However, if staying on budget is your priority, a mid-month move on a weekday in the winter is your best bet at finding the best deal. 

The best bet for most large items is a four-wheel dolly, but it depends on the size and shape of the couch. This tool provides extra stability for heavy loads and enhances maneuverability, which is useful when squeezing through a narrow doorway. Additionally, four-wheel designs reduce the effort required to move the dolly, which minimizes the number of required helpers.

Moving a washer and dryer may require a permit as it involves changing the plumbing in a home. Plumbing related permits cost between $50 to $500, but a pro can typically handle this process end to end. Always check with your plumber beforehand if a permit is needed and how that may impact project timelines.

Although it's one of the most beautiful places to reside, there are some cons to consider. The cost of living is higher, and it's one of the most expensive states to live in. 

If you have pets, you will have to put them through a quarantine program that can last up to four months. Plus, there is potential for natural disasters such as volcanic eruptions and hurricanes.

Apartments come with strict regulations about what pets are allowed, so check before you sign a lease. If you have a fish or reptile, wait to move them until everything is set up and you’re ready to do a special move just for them and their aquarium/terrarium.

For a dog or cat, be sure you have a carrier before the move. On moving day, it’s best to designate a “safe room” or even a crate for your pet to help them get used to the new space. Keep everything they need in the safe room, and let them explore the rest of the apartment in their own time.
