Fairfield, CA Movers

Fairfield moving costs depend on several factors:

• Size of your home and how much you’re moving
• Distance between locations
• Whether you need packing or storage services
• Time of year (peak moving seasons are pricier)
• Extra labor for stairs, narrow hallways, or heavy items

“The cost per hour for Fairfield movers remains the same for all home sizes, ranging from $139 per hour for two movers to $380 per hour for five movers. As the size of your home increases, the number of movers and hours required for the move also increases, resulting in a higher total cost,” states MoveBuddha. This may not apply for long-distance moves, which are usually priced based on weight and mileage.

At Turner Moving & Storage, we offer free, honest moving estimates so you can budget wisely. Our process includes:

• The hourly rate or flat-rate pricing
• Any extra fees upfront—no surprises later
• Flexible options to match your timeline and budget
• Valuation coverage options for your belongings

We offer virtual or in-person walkthroughs to make sure your estimate is accurate. As our CEO Randy Turner says, “Clear communication makes for a smooth move.”

Not all moving companies provide the same level of service. Look for movers in Fairfield that offer:

• Local and intrastate moving: Movers typically have a standard radius for local moves (usually 50 to 100 miles) and charge hourly up to 100 miles. Beyond that territory up to state lines is considered an intrastate move. Past 100 miles up to state lines is charged by weight.
• Long-distance moving: Moving beyond state lines within the country is considered long-distance and requires a USDOT license. Pricing is based on mileage and the weight of the cargo rather than an hourly rate. 
• Packing and unpacking: Packing and unpacking services save you time and energy making sure that your belongings are properly protected.
• Loading and unloading: Loading and unloading are offered as a part of a full-service move or as a standalone labor-only service that covers just the heavy lifting.
• Storage solutions: Having a place to store your belongings is crucial. This is especially helpful in the case of moving delays, home renovations, or downsizing.
• Specialty moves: This service is applicable for moving delicate, bulky, or valuable items that require specialized expertise or certain tools. 

“Full-service movers will do everything associated with your move, including furniture disassembly, truck loading and unloading, transporting your belongings, furniture reassembly, and placing your items where you want them in your new home,” states Moving.com. If you’re looking for a more budget-friendly or hands-on approach, partial services such as labor-only or packing are great options.

Turner Moving & Storage offers all of the above and more. Our flexible options include:

• Residential, commercial, and office moves — Flexible scheduling available
• Local, long-distance, and international relocation services 
• Packing services — Full or partial
• Custom crating for valuable or fragile items
• Warehouse storage — Climate-stable, 26,000 square foot facility
• Expertise in moving gun safes, wine cellars, pianos, and even vehicles

Our CEO Randy Turner puts it simply: “Whatever you need, we’re here to make it easy.”

To verify the credibility of your moving company, the following steps are recommended:

• Ask for their USDOT number or California PUC license
• Check their record on the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) website
• Request proof of insurance and valuation options

“When you’re searching for a moving company, they should readily share their USDOT number with you,” emphasizes Forbes Home. This ensures you’re covered in case of damage and confirms the mover meets legal safety standards. 

Turner Moving & Storage is fully licensed and insured for your peace of mind.  Our licenses include:

• USDOT: 1919262

For your preferred moving date, it’s best to book:

• Local moves: At least 2–4 weeks in advance
• Long-Distance or peak-season: 4–6 weeks or more ahead 

Summertime, weekends, and holidays are typically the busiest periods. “Start the search for a moving company as soon as possible—preferably two months before your move—to get the best price,” recommends the New York Times. 

Turner Moving & Storage encourages customers to reach out as soon as possible. We provide:

• Flexible booking—even on short notice
• Priority scheduling for repeat customers
• Moving timelines and checklists to keep you on track

“We’re here to work around your calendar, not the other way around,” says Turner Moving & Storage president Randy Turner.

While some Fairfield movers provide storage solutions, not everyone does. Having the option for storage can be a game-changer if your move-in date is delayed or you’re in transition. Common features of storage options include:

• Short-term storage for a few days or weeks
• Long-term storage in secure warehouse facilities
• Climate-control for sensitive items

CBS News adds, “[A] moving company that can hold onto your belongings safely can be a big relief. In contrast, doing it yourself could mean trying to rent your own storage space and going through another unloading and reloading process.”

Turner Moving & Storage provides flexible storage options to fit your needs and budget.

• 26,000 sq. ft. warehouse, monitored around the clock
• Itemized tracking so you always know what’s in storage
• Smooth coordination with your delivery schedule

“We’ll keep your items safe until you’re ready for the next step,” guarantees Randy Turner, Turner Moving & Storage CEO.

You’ll want to look for a mover with a solid reputation. Here’s what to check:

• Online reviews: An average rating of 4.7 or higher signals mostly high praise, and therefore positive customer experiences. Search on popular and trustworthy platforms such as Google, Yelp, or the Better Business Bureau.
• Years of experience in the industry: Expertise and authority are built through experience. Even better if they have an established reputation in your local area, which makes it easier for them to plan ahead for any challenges specific to your location.
• Clear pricing with no hidden fees: Unexpected charges on your final bill are a nightmare for anyone. Steer clear of movers that push you to sign a blank contract or that don’t itemize the costs of their services in detail.
• Professionalism in communication and appearance: You can tell a lot about how a business operates from the way they present themselves. Dependable movers make it clear that they respect and value their customers through punctuality, organization, and a good attitude.

“See what other customers are saying about the company by searching the web with the company name and such terms as ‘complaints’ and ‘reviews.’ Find out whether the company has a report with the Better Business Bureau, which has reviews of more than 20,000 moving-related companies,” advises Consumer Reports.
