Being prepared makes everything easier, including your move. Avoid confusion and stressful delays by taking these extra steps:

• Start planning early to avoid last-minute stress—aim to book your movers 4–6 weeks in advance.

• Declutter before packing so you’re only moving what you truly need or want.

• Label boxes clearly with both contents and their designated room to make unpacking easier.

• Pack an essentials box with items you’ll need right away, like toiletries, chargers, and a change of clothes.

• Take measurements of your new space and large furniture to ensure they will fit through doors and stairways.

• Notify important parties of your address change, including banks, utilities, and the post office.

• Use high-quality materials for packing fragile or valuable items to prevent breakage in transit.

• Take photos of electronics setups before unplugging so you can reconnect everything easily.

• Schedule utility transfers ahead of time so your new home is ready when you arrive.
• Walk through your old home after moving out to double-check for any missed items.

The roots of Turner Moving & Storage began in the 1940s when founder Dean Turner was working in the freight and furniture moving business. He eventually started focusing on hauling for small businesses. What started as a small, local operation has grown into a respected, award-winning business serving the entire region. Today, Turner Moving & Storage is proudly owned and operated by Dean’s son, Randy Turner, who continues the family tradition of personalized service and community focus.

Under Randy’s leadership, the company has earned numerous honors, including the Wheaton World Wide Moving Agent of the Year and multiple Spire Quality Awards for customer satisfaction. Randy himself is recognized in Marquis Who’s Who for his contributions to the moving and storage industry. With over 75 years of experience behind us, we remain committed to upholding the values our company was founded on—trust, quality, and care.

Moving costs can vary greatly from company to company and move to move. It’s common for moving companies to offer an initial estimate, but it’s crucial to ensure that a comprehensive home survey is carried out for an accurate quote. This helps avoid any unexpected costs and ensures a smoother moving process. According to MoveBuddha, “Although costs fluctuate depending on the service and company, the typical cost for hiring movers in Napa, California, is $120 per hour. If you’re moving locally within Napa, moving companies range from $322 to $3,630 on average.”

At Turner Moving & Storage, we pride ourselves on our transparent pricing. We offer both in-home and virtual surveys, providing our customers with accurate estimates that consider all of their items. We firmly believe in no hidden costs and never provide estimates blindly over the phone. Our CEO, Randy Turner, emphasizes, “We understand how stressful moving can be, and our goal is to make it as easy and straightforward as possible for our customers. By offering clear and honest pricing, we ensure that there are no surprises on moving day.”

In general, moving companies should provide detailed quotes that clearly outline all the costs and services included. According to Move.org, “An accurate estimate and clear communication between you and your moving company will help to ensure an efficient moving day.” However, some companies might not be as transparent, leading to hidden costs. This is especially true for rogue movers who offer cheap prices without doing a survey of your items.

Turner Moving & Storage stands out in this regard. We take the time to provide a comprehensive quote that details every aspect of the moving process. From our optional packing services to our storage options, we leave no stone unturned when it comes to ensuring our customers understand what they’re paying for. “Our commitment to transparency means that our customers can trust that there will be no hidden fees or surprises,” says our CEO, Randy Turner.

Move.org explains, “Most professional moving companies think of a long-distance move as moving over 400 miles, typically across state lines.” Whether a move is local or spans across states, a professional moving company should be able to handle both. However, not all companies have the correct licenses to handle all types of moves. 

Turner Moving & Storage excels in both local and long-distance moving. We are able to offer such comprehensive long-distance services through our partnership as an interstate agent of Wheaton World Wide Moving. This gives us access to hundreds of agents coast-to-coast. “Our network allows us to provide seamless and efficient moving services, no matter the distance,” states our CEO, Randy Turner.

This USA Today article states, “Long-distance moving companies should offer a basic suite of services plus multiple add-on service options.” This includes professional packing and unpacking services. Packing can be one of the most stressful aspects of moving. Some moving companies may offer packing services and materials, but at an additional cost, or they may not offer them at all.

Turner Moving & Storage aims to alleviate this stress. We offer a range of packing services and materials to ensure that your belongings are secure during the move. Our professional team handles your items with the utmost care, ensuring a stress-free move. “Our goal is to provide comprehensive packing solutions to make moving as smooth as possible for our customers,” notes our CEO, Randy Turner.

Having a licensed and insured moving company is crucial for your peace of mind. The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration clearly states, “Companies that operate commercial vehicles transporting passengers or hauling cargo in interstate commerce must be registered with the FMCSA and must have a USDOT Number.” Legitimate movers should have their license numbers prominently displayed on their website. 

At Turner Moving & Storage, we are proud to be fully licensed and insured. Our Interstate USDOT license number is 70719, and our Intrastate USDOT license number is 1919262. Our MTR license number is 0190536. Rest assured, your move is in safe hands with us. “Our licensing and insurance are a testament to our commitment to professionalism and safety,” affirms our CEO, Randy Turner.

Professional movers should be thoroughly vetted and background-checked. According to this Forbes article, “Background checks use third-party resources to look into public records, law enforcement, credit bureaus, academic records and previous work history.” It’s vital to ensure the movers handling your possessions have the experience to do so safely and efficiently.

Every member of the Turner Moving & Storage crew has been thoroughly background-checked and trained. Our team is experienced in handling everything from local moves to international relocations, giving you the confidence you need in your moving company. “As we celebrate 75 years in business, our dedication to training and experience remains stronger than ever,” highlights our CEO, Randy Turner.

Online reviews can give you insight into a company’s service quality. Look for a moving company with positive reviews that highlight professionalism, reliability, and customer satisfaction. Make sure to keep an eye out for fake reviews. “The New York Times warns, “Fake reviews are as old as the internet itself, and they are illegal and banned by online platforms.” If there are too many 5-star reviews posted on the same day, that is one of the signs that they are not legitimate.

Turner Moving & Storage is proud to have a stellar online reputation. As we celebrate our 75th anniversary in 2024, we are honored to be inducted into the Napa Business Hall of Fame for winning the Best of Napa Award for 10 consecutive years. Additionally, we were named Favorite Moving Company in Napa Valley’s Finest 2023 by the Napa Valley Register. Our accolades include the prestigious Wheaton World Wide Van Lines Mover of the Year award for 2022 and multiple Spire Quality Awards from 2018 to 2023. “Our customers’ positive feedback and our consistent awards speak volumes about our commitment to excellence,” remarks our CEO, Randy Turner.

Every professional moving company must offer valuation coverage, which is regulated by government laws and provides protection of 60 cents per pound per item. This minimum protection is called Limited Liability Coverage. An additional option is Full Value Coverage. The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration states, “Under Full Value Protection, your mover is responsible for the replacement value of lost or damaged goods in your entire shipment. This is the more comprehensive, but also more expensive, option for protecting your belongings.”

At Turner Moving & Storage, we go above and beyond to offer our clients Limited Liability Coverage and Full Value Protection options. We take every precaution to ensure your belongings are safe, but we provide comprehensive coverage options for added peace of mind. “We take great care of our customers’ belongings and offer coverage options so they can have peace of mind throughout the move,” says our CEO, Randy Turner.
