Moving Services in El Cajon, CA
- Packing/Unpacking: Need some help packing and/or unpacking the items in your home? Many El Cajon movers we partner with will do this for an additional fee.
- Local Moves: Shorter moves, like when you’re staying in the same town or general area, take much less time and are usually changed by the hour.
- Long-Distance Moves: Long-distance or cross-country moves require movers to take a longer period of time out of their day or week, so they usually end up charging you based on the number of rooms that you’re moving and how far you’re going.

- Other Miscellaneous Services: Storage services, the purchase of moving supplies and packing kits, and white glove services may also be options for your move.
Tips for Making Your Move Simpler
-
Plastic wrap is your friend
You want to be sure that you use plastic wrap on the toiletries and other liquid items that you may be taking. Put a little bit of plastic wrap over the opening, under the lid, and you’ll be good to go. You can also put plastic wrap over your drawers for easy packing and unpacking.
-
Pack your important items in an “open first” clear bin
You want to know where your social security card, birth certificate, and other important items are. You also want to have cleaning supplies handy, and you may also be looking for items like nightclothes, sheets, or pots and pans. Put them in an “open first” bin that’s clear and easy to see.
-
Don’t make dinner your first night in the new place
Moving day is a busy and crazy day, and you’re likely to be quite exhausted when you’re done. Be sure that you schedule some time to eat out or to order in – you’ll be glad that you did.
-
Put together an inclusive inventory list
You want to inventory everything that you’ll be taking with you to your new place. You want to know what it is that you’re leaving with so that your moving company can have a fairly solid idea of what it is that you should have with you when you unpack.
-
Don’t pack everything you currently own!
You want to take this opportunity to go ahead and donate or sell some of the stuff that you don’t want or need anymore. Split everything up and make sure that you get rid of the items that you aren’t using. Maybe you can even have a yard sale to get rid of some of the stuff that you’re positive you aren’t going to need anymore.
