How many people actually move between Oakland and San Diego, CA

Federal tax-filer records, 2022-2023 · about 436 miles apart

-455 net
1,498 out
1,043 in

Over the year, 1,498 people moved from Oakland to San Diego, CA, and 1,043 came back the other way. At 436 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.
