Full Packing
Packing is a pain. There’s all the sorting, organizing, and searching for the right boxes – and that’s before you even start wrapping and boxing. You’ve got two options: Toss everything in an old Amazon box with some loose socks and a prayer, or just let the pros handle your packing.
At Pricing Van Lines, we proudly offer full packing in Los Angeles. As an extra service, our movers will show up at your door with boxes, bubble wrap, furniture pads, and everything else they need to keep your items as safe and secure as possible.
Storage Solutions
Too much stuff? Not enough room? There’s an easy solution for that: Just book storage services in Los Angeles.
Storage units can give you a whole lot of extra square footage and flexibility, before, during, and after the big move. But if you want an affordable storage unit that’s still safe and secure, you’ll need to book one with Pricing Van Lines.
With a whole range of units of all shapes and sizes – not to mention climate-controlled options, we’ve got storage you need for a successful relocation.

Custom Crating
Sometimes, cardboard just doesn’t cut it. Our professional packing teams can build completely custom crates around your most valuable possessions.
Small Moves
Some movers have a minimum weight restriction, and they won’t help you move unless you’re stuff meets a certain weight. Not us. We can handle small moves with ease.

Important Questions About Moving in Los Angeles
How long does it take to move in Los Angeles?
A local move in Los Angeles can take anywhere from 4 to 10 hours. It all depends on how far you have to travel and how much you have to pack, load, transport, and unload. However, if you’re packing light, you may actually end up waiting longer for delivery.
Movers don’t like to send half-empty trucks all over the place, so they usually bundle small moves in the same trailer, which can lead to some delays for drop-offs and deliveries along the way.
What’s the difference between local and long distance moving?
If you’re moving under 100 miles and staying in the same state, you’ll need local movers in Los Angeles. But if you’re traveling beyond 100 miles or crossing state lines (even if the state line is just a mile away), you’ll be working with long distance movers. Local movers charge per hour, per mover (and it’s usually 2 movers per bedroom). Long distance movers charge by distance and weight.
What’s the cheapest way to move?
The cheapest way to move is to DIY the whole thing. Unfortunately, after you rent a truck, pay for gas, and shell out more money for food and lodging (if needed), your savings can dry up pretty quickly. If you want DIY savings, you have to stay disciplined with all your other expenses.
How much should I tip movers in Los Angeles?
For Los Angeles movers, it’s a good idea to tip between 15% and 20% of your total moving cost, to be divvied up evenly across your whole moving crew. Moving is hard work, and in the moving industry, tips are expected unless your mover has explicitly turned them down.
When should I start packing?
Start packing as soon as you’ve booked your movers (2 to 3 months in advance). Seriously. Unless you’re paying for full service packing. The earlier you start, the less stressed you’ll feel.
Start with your least-used items, and slowly work your way to your most-used stuff. You should be packing up art, decor, and seasonal decorations first, and your toothbrush last (we hope).
