Signal Hill moves are priced by the hour, and crew size sets the rate. Two movers with a truck cost $119 to $175 per hour and suit a studio or 1-bedroom; three movers run $159 to $250 per hour for a 2-bedroom; four movers run $199 to $344+ per hour for larger homes.

Totals by home size usually land at $400 - $700 for a studio or 1-bedroom, $900 - $1,400 for a 2-bedroom, and $2,000 - $4,000+ for a 3-bedroom or bigger. California's double drive time rule also applies: a 15-minute drive between addresses can be billed as 30 minutes of labor.

The city's slopes are a real cost factor, since steep streets can keep a truck far from your door and trigger a long carry fee. Managed buildings often demand a Certificate of Insurance and an elevator reservation, so confirm building rules early. Insist on a written binding not-to-exceed estimate, because a non-binding quote can legally grow on moving day. Moving mid-month on a Tuesday or Wednesday can trim $20 - $50 per hour off peak rates.

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...

They did an amazing job! We moved locally and they moved our house and a storage unit in 1 day. Roman and his crew worked super hard, were efficient, and took great care of our stuff. They did a great job moving our piano and giant gym rack as well. Would 100% use them again.

Joe and Reggie were all-stars! They helped us move a few heavy, vintage arcade games from start to finish and couldn’t have done it without them. Highly recommend them: professional, knowledgeable, and safe. Will be using them again in the future!

Who's moving to Signal Hill, CA

Federal tax-filer migration data for Los Angeles County.

285,327 households moved in or out · the busiest moving market in the U.S.
What kind of mover will you need?
Moving in
122,437 households arrived
17% under 50 mi 25% 50–250 mi 52% over 250 mi 7% not attributed

52% 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
162,890 households left
16% under 50 mi 31% 50–250 mi 47% over 250 mi 6% not attributed

78% 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 $95,475 in average annual income; those relocating from elsewhere in California report $82,810. 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 Los Angeles County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 6% 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.
