What customers say in Milpitas, CA

Quick and friendly crew. Stayed within estimated budget and worked with urgency. My only complaint is none of the furniture was wrapped with plastic or blankets and we’ve since found many scuffs and nicks on our furniture that weren’t there before.

Moving can be stressful and Celis takes on the tough part. We have a used them for a large haul, storage, and a piano move. All on time, professional and fast. Nothing damaged always professional and the extra personal touch puts them on top of the list. I had packed passports in a box and marked it...

Roland and his team were very friendly, professional, and efficient. Communication was excellent throughout the entire process. We would definitely hire them again!

I can not recommend Cardinale enough for storage needs. Adam and the team put service at the next level. We utilize Cardinale for trade show storage for an annual event in Monterrey - naturally this requires some coordination and additional 'work' that is beyond what we originally expected -- and th...

I highly recommend Celis Movers! Rafael and his crew did an amazing job. They packed all our stuff with care and didn’t break or damage a single thing. They also worked fast and efficiently. With two trucks and four guys, they moved our 2000 square-foot home one town over in a single day.

If you’re considering hiring Celis, just do it. They are professional, efficient, and took incredible care of our furniture. They also have a reusable bin add on that is completely worth it. They drop them off and pick them up before and after your move.

Celis movers made this moving experience seamless. Once I sought an estimate, Rolando reached out immediately and was super responsive in scheduling and providing the estimate (which was accurate!). Communication was great throughout the process. On the actual move day, Arturo and his team were supe...

Rafael, Arturo, and Felix were so helpful and professional. They helped make a complicated move easy. They were also extremely kind and thorough. I am very grateful, and happy to be settled in my new home. Thank you.

They moved a piano for me- a very heavy 1901 piano - they wrapped it and figured out how to get it from one house to another . It arrived safely and was handled perfectly - thank you !

From the initial estimate and walk through with Rolando to the moving day experience with Rafael and his crew, the move was smooth sailing. They did a great job protecting, loading, unloading, and organizing our entire home in one day. Highly recommended!

Who's moving to Milpitas, CA

Federal tax-filer migration data for Santa Clara County.

96,989 households moved in or out · #22 busiest moving market in the U.S.
What kind of mover will you need?
Moving in
43,577 households arrived
30% under 50 mi 13% 50–250 mi 46% over 250 mi 11% not attributed

55% arrived from elsewhere in California. Most arrivals are in-state moves, so a regional company will usually cover it — check interstate authority only if you're crossing a state line.

Moving out
53,412 households left
32% under 50 mi 19% 50–250 mi 39% over 250 mi 11% not attributed

58% of departures went farther than 50 miles. Beyond that range moves are priced by weight and distance, and a state line means the carrier needs interstate authority.

Households arriving from another state report $132,338 in average annual income; those relocating from elsewhere in California report $152,964. Long-distance arrivals are the higher-budget half of the market.

How this works: IRS SOI County-to-County Migration Data, 2022-2023. The IRS compares the address on consecutive tax returns, so every move here is a real filed household. The catch: it publishes annually with about a two-year lag, counts Santa Clara County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 11% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.

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.
