How Much Does It Cost to Move in Long Beach?

Local Long Beach moves are priced by the hour or at a flat rate. The biggest swings come from the carry between truck and door, the number of stairs, crating for antiques or art, and how much of the packing you hand off to us.

Hourly Rate Moving

Hourly pricing is ideal for most local Long Beach moves.

Pay based on the time it takes to complete your move.
Time starts when movers arrive and ends when the move is complete, plus fixed travel time.
Most moves require a 3-hour minimum.
Hourly rates vary by season and moving requirements.

Flat Rate Moving

Available for qualifying moves when the scope can be clearly defined in advance.

Pay one agreed price, regardless of moving time.
Pricing is based on the amount you’re moving, distance, and moving requirements.
No additional hourly charges if the move takes longer.
Changes to the agreed list of items or services may affect the price.

Preparing for Your Long Beach Move

Most Long Beach prep comes down to the curb outside and the tight spots inside, like narrow halls and a crowded garage.

Before your scheduled date:

In older homes, check doorway widths against your largest furniture.
In a downtown tower, book the elevator and dock through management.
Flag antiques and heirlooms that need crating when you book.
Clear a path through the garage and driveway to the door.
Decide what goes to resale, donation, or junk pickup before packing starts.
Seal and label every box with its destination room.
Pick up keys, fobs, and parking permits for the new place before move day.
Pack a bag of IDs, medication, chargers, and keys to carry yourself.
Have gas appliances disconnected by a technician before move day.

Long Beach Moving Questions Answered

Can I reserve a spot on my Long Beach street for the truck?

Yes, and on crowded blocks it’s worth doing. The City of Long Beach can designate a no-parking area for a moving van if you request it ahead of time. Also check the posted street sweeping day on both blocks, since a truck parked during sweeping hours can be cited.

Do you help Cal State Long Beach students move?

Yes. Our student movers handle shared apartments near campus and moves home at the end of the term. The weeks around the end of each Cal State Long Beach semester tend to be busy, so reserve early if your lease ends then.

Can you move in or out of a gated community like Bixby Hill?

Yes. Guard-gated neighborhoods such as Bixby Hill usually need the mover’s name, truck details, and arrival time before the gate will open. Send the HOA or gate contact with your booking, and we’ll arrange access ahead of time.

Can a moving truck reach my home in Naples?

Usually, with planning. Naples is built on three islands in Alamitos Bay, with narrow streets and limited curb space, so we confirm the right truck size and a legal stopping spot on your street ahead of time, and plan for a longer carry if needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

View all

How do I get an estimate?

Choose whichever fits your schedule for a free quote or consultation.

✓Video walkthrough. A 15-minute video call, room by room. Most popular option.
✓Call us. 866-565-1516 speak with our friendly team.
✓Request a quote online. Send details and we’ll follow up.
✓Free in-person estimate. Available for homes with 2+ bedrooms.

Will my furniture be protected?

Yes. At Poseidon Moving, protecting your furniture is one of our highest priorities.

Every piece is carefully prepared before it’s moved. Our crews use heavy duty moving blankets, stretch wrap, floor protection, and proven loading techniques to help prevent scratches, dents, and shifting during transport.

If you have antiques, artwork, glass, marble, or other high-value items, we can recommend additional protection options such as custom crating or White Glove service.

Are there items you can't move?

Yes. For safety reasons, we cannot transport hazardous materials or certain restricted items. These are commonly referred to as “non-allowable items.”

This includes:

•Propane tanks, gasoline, kerosene, and lighter fluid
•Paint, aerosols, household cleaners, and other hazardous chemicals
•Fireworks, ammunition, matches, and charcoal
•Living things, including plants, fish, and pets

We recommend transporting these items yourself, using them before your move, or disposing of them safely according to local regulations.

Not sure about a specific item? Just ask your Move Coordinator before moving day, and we’ll be happy to let you know if it can be transported.

Can you take down TVs and wall-mounted items?

Yes. We can remove and reinstall many wall-mounted items as part of your move.

Our crews can typically dismount and reinstall:

✓Mounted TVs
✓Artwork and mirrors
✓Shelving
✓Window air conditioners

Some installations may require additional hardware, specialized tools, or extra time, so these services may incur an additional charge.

If you know you’ll need help with wall-mounted items, let your Move Coordinator know before moving day so we can arrive fully prepared.

How much will my move cost?

Every move is unique, so the most accurate pricing starts with a personalized estimate.

✓Local Moves – Pricing depends on the size of your move, the time required, travel time, and any additional services such as packing, storage, or specialty handling. Based on your move, we’ll recommend either hourly or flat-rate pricing.
✓Long-Distance Moves – We provide binding estimates based on your inventory, the distance, logistics, and any additional services you request.

Do you provide moving supplies and equipment?

Yes. Every Poseidon Moving truck arrives fully stocked with the supplies and equipment your move may need.

✓Heavy-duty moving pads, stretch wrap, and tape
✓Dollies, hand trucks, straps, and floor protection
✓Basic tools for disassembly and reassembly

If you’re not fully packed by moving day, let us know before your move date and we’ll make sure the crew brings the packing supplies you need – boxes, dish packs, wardrobe boxes, bubble wrap, mirror boxes, and TV boxes.
