Joe was the absolute best! My husband is overseas and only one of my friends was able to help me move in, so I was a little nervous going into it as I have never booked a moving service before. We booked Joe for the 3 hour labor service where he helped us load and unload using our own vehicles + his...

I highly recommend Max Pro Moving! Joe, Zander, Roman, and Damian were incredibly professional, efficient, kind, and hardworking throughout our entire move. We’ve moved three times in the past three years, including a coast-to-coast move, so we’ve worked with several moving companies and this team w...

Great moving company; I’ve used them multiple times when moving between homes in SLO, inclusive of packing services. Very professional, timely, and clean. Pricing is always as quoted. I recommend them.

From my initial call to working with the movers throughout every step of my move, the entire experience was positive, professional, and reassuring.

Everything was perfect! Best moving experience ever. Caring, courteous, and respectful of my belongings. The boxes and furnishings were all placed where I wanted them. They put my bed together in no time. I moved from Cayucos to Reno and the price was very reasonable. If I ever have an to move again...

Couldn’t be happier with my guys at Mentors. Have used them for moving multiple times, and just recently moved my stored belongings out from their storage warehouse after 3 years. Coolest guys ever and they genuinely care about protecting your things. Not one item has ever been damaged or lost. Best...

We loved our experience with ASAP movers! They helped us out so much on very short notice after another local moving company canceled our reservation less than a week before we had to move. We used them to move the entire contents of our home into a storage unit and then back again while we were und...

We had an excellent experience with Max Pro Moving. The team was extremely professional and communicative through the entire process. They carefully and efficiently moved us from Los Angeles area to San Diego dealing with flight of stairs, hot weather, and heavy traffic. The crew worked hard through...

Mentors Moving & Storage saved us from a near crisis! After a long 10‑hour drive from Arizona to Bakersfield, we arrived late Sunday evening, completely exhausted and a full day behind schedule. My aging dad had just relocated from AZ to CA, and because of the delay, my husband, brother, and I weren...

Meathead Movers has always been great to work with! Recently, we bought a very heavy piece of furniture that had to be moved upstairs in our home. We hired Meathead Movers to do it. My concerns were damaging the stairway getting upstairs, and simply getting this heavy piece of furniture up to a room...

Zach & the team were just fabulous. Moving was stressful enough but Mentors did great with a quick and transparent quote, easy confirmation, and quick work on the moving day. Ended up quoting me an extra hour, so total was less than we expected. Everything was wrapped and handled well. No long gap b...

How many people actually move between Bakersfield and Oakland, CA

Federal tax-filer records, 2022-2023 · about 238 miles apart

-6 net
184 out
178 in

Over the year, 184 people moved from Bakersfield to Oakland, CA, and 178 came back the other way. At 238 miles this is a long-haul job, priced by weight and distance rather than by the hour.

Where this comes from: IRS SOI County-to-County Migration Data, 2022-2023 — the IRS compares the address on consecutive tax returns; the counts above are the people on those returns. County-level and about two years behind.

How much truck space do you need?

I’m moving a that’s .

A moving truck filling up as you change the options
1,150
cubic feet — what a local crew loads
8,050 lb what a long-distance carrier quotes on
26 ft rental truck, if you drive it yourself

Industry rules of thumb — about seven pounds per cubic foot, and published rental-truck capacities. Not our carrier records, not a quote. Bring both numbers to the call and what you get back will finally be comparable.
