How Does A Long Distance
Move Actually Work?

One flat rate, agreed in writing before we load, and it does not change after. We are the carrier, not a broker: the crew that loads in San Diego is our crew, on our truck. Transit runs about 550 miles a day counted from the day after load day, and anything within 200 miles, including Los Angeles, is delivered the same day it is loaded. Delivery is a date on your paperwork, not a window.

No deposit, ever, on any move. The price depends on what you own and where it is going, so it is quoted per move rather than published as a number; the quote is free, written, and binding.

Long Distance Moving
Questions Answered

Long distance is one flat rate agreed in writing before we load, not an hourly rate and not a weight-and-mileage formula. The flat rate covers a 26 ft box truck rated up to 26,000 lbs gross vehicle weight. Discount Movers provides a free written estimate, straightforward pricing and no surprise charges. Call (858) 490-0155 for a custom quote.
Inside California, anything within 200 miles of San Diego, Los Angeles included, delivers the same day, and everything further runs on the same rule as any other route. We drive 550 miles a day starting the day after we load, so a cross country run is about six driving days and you get a delivery date, not a window. We give you a delivery date up front, worked out from 550 miles a day, so you can plan around it.
Yes. Discount Movers holds a USDOT registration for interstate long distance moves and is licensed with the BHGS for intrastate moves. We are fully insured for all moves.
We recommend booking 3–4 weeks in advance, especially during summer peak season. This ensures we can assign the right crew and truck for your move size and destination.
Yes! We offer full service packing and unpacking for long distance moves. Our crew will pack your entire home at origin and unpack everything at your destination. Ask for a combined packing + moving quote.

The Part Nobody Tells You

WE'RE THE CARRIER, NOT A BROKER

Most companies quoting long-distance moves online are brokers, middlemen who take a deposit, then sell your move to the cheapest carrier they can find. That's how prices double at pickup and belongings get held hostage. When Discount Movers quotes your move, the company quoting you is the company that loads, drives, and delivers.

⚠ Booking through a broker

  • Your move is auctioned to an unknown carrier
  • "Estimate" often jumps at pickup
  • Nobody accountable when things go wrong
  • ✓ Booking Discount Movers

  • Our trucks, our background-checked crews
  • Flat rate locked in writing before we load
  • One company accountable, door to door
  • Verify us yourself: US DOT #4372335 · CAL-T #201759
