Moving in San Marcos

San Elijo Hills and planned communities

San Elijo Hills and Santa Fe Hills are mostly two-story homes and townhomes in HOA communities on hillside streets, with move-hour rules and limits on truck parking. Send us the HOA’s rules and we plan around them. We protect stairs and banisters and take apart beds, cribs and play sets so they move safely.

Student and apartment moves

Cal State San Marcos and Palomar College bring a lot of apartment moves, many in the newer buildings in North City with elevators and move-in reservations. Small apartment moves with two movers are quick; book early for May and late August, when most leases turn over. A single piece of furniture can go as a one-item move.

The 78 corridor

San Marcos sits on the 78 between Escondido and Vista, so moves anywhere in North County are short, but the 78 is slow at rush hour in both directions. We start early. Moves to Escondido, Vista and Lake San Marcos are short hourly moves; see local moving.

How it works

Your San Marcos move in four steps

  1. Step 1: Tell us about the move

    Call or send the form with both addresses. A short phone or video walk-through of your San Marcos home sizes the crew and the truck.

  2. Step 2: Get a written estimate

    Hourly rate, crew size and estimated hours in writing before you book. Weekday and mid-month dates are the easiest to get.

  3. Step 3: Moving day

    The lead mover calls ahead, the crew protects floors and door frames and wraps every piece of furniture before it leaves the room.

  4. Step 4: Set up in the new home

    Furniture placed where you want it, beds and tables put back together, and a walk-through with you before the crew leaves.

Tips for your move

Moving to North County San Diego: Coast vs. Inland Guide

North County San Diego is the stretch of San Diego County between Camp Pendleton and the city of San Diego. When people talk about moving to North County San Diego, they usually mean one of five cities: Oceanside, Carlsbad, Vista, San Marcos or Escondido. Our Escondido office runs moves across all of them, and the first question we help people answer is simple: coast or inland?

Moving to the Inland Empire: Cities, Commutes and Heat

Most people moving to the Inland Empire tell us the same thing: they want more space. A bigger yard, a garage that fits a car, a newer house, or simply more home for the money than they could find in Los Angeles or Orange County. Our headquarters is in Moreno Valley, so the Inland Empire is home turf for our crews, and we see what works (and what goes wrong) on moving day across both counties.

Moving from the Bay Area to Southern California: A Guide

Moving from the Bay Area to Southern California is one of the most common long-distance moves in the state. We see it from San Francisco, the East Bay, the Peninsula, San Jose and Sacramento, headed to Los Angeles, Orange County, the Inland Empire and San Diego. Because the whole trip stays inside California, it works differently from a local hourly move, and knowing how it works makes planning much easier.
