Two guys showed up at eight, wrapped every single thing we owned, and we were eating dinner in the new place by six. The flat rate was the flat rate.

Priya N. · Irvine to Tustin

The peninsula alley scared every other company off. Orange Crate sent a shorter truck and a plan.

Mark D. · Newport Beach

They delivered the boxes three days early, which is the only reason I was actually packed.

Straight answers

Questions people ask before they book.

All the questions
Do you charge by the hour or a flat rate?

Both, and you choose. Local moves get a flat rate after a photo or video walkthrough, and that number does not move unless the inventory does. Small jobs and labor-only work are hourly with a two-hour minimum.

Are your movers employees or day labor?

Employees. Every mover is on our payroll, background checked, and trained in our Costa Mesa yard before they touch a customer's sofa. No subcontracted crews, no strangers from an app.

Do you bring boxes?

Yes. With any move we drop off boxes, tape and paper a few days ahead at no charge and pick up the empties after. Wardrobe boxes are on loan for move day so closets move on their hangers.

What about stairs, elevators and long carries?

Included within 150 feet of the truck. We reserve elevators with your building and bring floor and door protection. Extreme carries, like Laguna hillside streets with no truck access, are priced in the quote up front, never sprung on move day.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. Orange Crate is a licensed California household goods mover with cargo and liability insurance. Basic valuation coverage at $0.60 per pound is included in every move, and full-value protection is available for a small added cost.

How far ahead should I book?

A week is comfortable for a weekday. Saturdays and the last few days of any month fill about two weeks out. Same-week moves are often possible, so ask.
