Movers from San Francisco
to Los Angeles

Ontrack Moving® runs the San Francisco to Los Angeles route, approximately 382 miles. Ontrack Moving® treats delivery windows as targets, not guarantees. Transit typically takes 1-2 days depending on the specific pickup and delivery locations, traffic conditions, and whether we use I-5 through the Central Valley or Highway 101 along the coast. We communicate a scheduled delivery window upfront so you can plan your arrival in Los Angeles.

Every Ontrack Moving® San Francisco to Los Angeles move includes: a dedicated truck (no shared loads), furniture disassembly and reassembly, moving blankets for items in scope, floor and doorway protection at both locations, wardrobe boxes, basic liability coverage at $0.60/lb per article, and a dedicated move coordinator. Available add-ons include full or partial packing, custom crating for art and antiques, piano moving, secure storage, and additional valuation protection.

No. Ontrack Moving is a direct carrier licensed by the California Bureau of Household Goods and Services (CAL-T190721). We own our trucks, employ our own crews, and maintain our own warehouse in Hayward, CA. Your belongings stay with our team from San Francisco pickup to Los Angeles delivery. No hand-offs, no subcontracting, no surprise crews showing up on moving day.

We typically use Interstate 5 through the Central Valley for the fastest transit. I-5 runs down the west side of the San Joaquin Valley past Stockton and the Buttonwillow junction, bypassing Fresno and Bakersfield, before climbing the Grapevine into Los Angeles, taking approximately 6-7 hours of drive time. For moves originating in coastal areas like Half Moon Bay or delivering to Malibu, Highway 101 may be more efficient. We choose the route that makes sense for your specific pickup and delivery locations.

Our Grapevine Pass Grade Management Protocol includes brake temperature monitoring on the Tejon Pass descent, weight-adjusted speed governance, and dynamic route selection. If Grapevine conditions are hazardous, we automatically reroute via US-101 Coastal Corridor to keep your items on a safer route. This protocol has been refined over years of running the SF-to-LA corridor.
