Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get pricing for my move, and how much do movers usually cost?

Local moves are billed hourly with a minimum of 3 hours of labor plus 1 hour of travel time, with Sacramento rates starting at $129 per hour for 2 guys and a truck. You can get a guaranteed estimate by completing our free quote form 24/7 or calling us any day between 7 AM and 9 PM.

We only request basic details because it’s the fastest way for our system to generate an accurate quote using your Moving From, Moving To, Move Date, and contact information. Your request is reviewed by a moving consultant who confirms day, time, truck, and crew availability to send you a guaranteed estimate.

After you submit your quote request, you will be contacted directly by People Movers. We are not a broker, so you will never receive calls from multiple companies.

Once we confirm your move details, we send you a text message with a link to your guaranteed estimate.

Local moves are billed at guaranteed hourly rates, while long-distance pricing is based on standard minimum hours and the size or weight of your shipment. Van lines often use different pricing models, so their estimates may not match our guaranteed rate structure.

Yes. We operate our own fleet, employ our own trained crews, and manage every move in-house – we never outsource or broker the job.

Our team is locally based, professionally vetted, and equipped to handle moves with the care and precision of a white-glove relocation service.

Our experience includes local and long-distance household moves, office and commercial relocations, senior relocations, and military transfers, including PCS moves.

We operate with full transparency and accountability from start to finish. We do not require a booking deposit for local moves, and all labor and truck time is tracked through our moving software and truck GPS to ensure accurate billing. This guarantees you only pay for the verified hours used during your move.

By California law, all moving companies are required to provide basic valuation coverage of $0.60 per pound per item. That means if a 100-pound item is damaged, the standard coverage is $60 – regardless of the item’s actual value.

People Movers® provides enhanced carrier liability protection at no extra cost, exceeding industry standards: up to 2X the California required coverage for standard furniture, and up to 5X higher protection for fragile items.

For customers seeking maximum peace of mind, we also offer optional third-party valuation coverage, allowing you to insure all your belongings for amounts up to $100,000 when household goods are in transit. The premium coverage is available at an additional cost and is ideal for high-value homes or long-distance moves.

Our goal is simple: to protect your home, your belongings, and your budget – without hidden risk.

Yes, we can handle small moves and single-item deliveries, but they are subject to our minimum of 3 hours of labor plus 1 hour of travel time. Specialty items can also be moved under the same minimum.

We do not sell moving boxes online; packing materials are provided only as part of your moving service and charged based on actual use. You may qualify for a free box kit when booking your long-distance or state-to-state move in advance.

We’re flexible and understand that plans can change, so rescheduling is never a problem. You’ll have a 3-day window to choose a new date and time that works for you.

If your new home isn’t ready, we offer affordable storage options, or you can choose a nearby storage facility where only you have access. All items remain fully protected, inventoried, and handled exclusively by our trained moving professionals.
