Commander came recommended by a couple of different folks at our condo complex in Oakland (sad to leave!). We used them to move our big furniture from there back to our home base in South Palo Alto. They were really professional on the quote, and the day of the move they were on-time, professional,...

You know the thing with movers, that you want to go with a word-of-mouth recommendation from someone you trust. Well, that's how I found Commander Moving and now I want to be the person you trust that tells you to go with them! I've used a lot of different moving companies over the years (7 moves, 7...

They are simply the best. I moved twice in 3 years and each time I was amazed at the speed, efficiency, and professionalism of all the movers. From beginning to end both jobs went smoothly - including a piano and stairs - and would never consider choosing another moving company.

Mike and his crew did an amazing job with our long-haul move. His estimate was fair, communication was great, and the team packed our apartment seamlessly. At our destination, Mike did some unforgettable tetrising to (safely) fit our life in a small storage space. Thank you!

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.
