How Our FFE Logistics in Santa Rosa Keeps an Opening on Schedule

FFE logistics in Santa Rosa means taking dozens of vendor shipments that land on different days and turning them into one install. We sign for each delivery, check cartons against your purchase orders, note damage before the carrier leaves and store everything by floor and room. On install day, pieces leave our dock in the order the site can take them.

How We Price an FF&E Job in Sonoma County

Delivery and install days are billed by the hour for movers and a truck, at the rates below. When we receive vendor freight and handle it through our warehouse, that handling typically totals $630 to $780.

Your project total depends on the number of shipments, how long the goods stay in storage, the floors and elevators at the site and how many rooms go in each day.

Movers and truck

Starting rate
2 movers, 1 truck
Studio, 1 bedroom or small office
from $170/hr
3 movers, 1 truck
Large 1 bedroom to 3 bedroom home
from $230/hr

3 bedroom home or larger office
from $290/hr

Local work carries a 3-hour minimum plus billed drive time. Pads, wrap, dollies and assembly tools are part of the hourly rate. Storage, packing materials, fuel surcharge and valuation are billed as separate lines.

Permits and Winery Rules That Shape a North Bay Install

In unincorporated Sonoma County, Permit Sonoma exempts movable fixtures, cases, racks, counters and partitions up to 5 feet 9 inches tall in commercial spaces from a building permit. Freestanding tasting bars and low dividers can go in on our schedule. Taller racking, or anything fastened to the building, needs a permit first, and we set the install date once it is issued.

A county board report counted 464 approved winery and tasting room permits in the unincorporated area, and 307 of them allow tasting and events. Those rooms refresh bars, lounges and event furniture between seasons, so we hold the new pieces in storage and install on a closed day.

Business Customers on Equipment, Clinic and Vault Moves

Three Google reviews from business customers of our Santa Rosa office.

Hassey Rizzuto

We highly recommend Mentors Moving & Storage to other local Santa Rosa businesses! Their professional team carefully moved our company’s heavy machinery and equipment without incident. From start to project completion, the team was respectful of our workspace, worked in a safe and professional manner, and effectively communicated with our move coordinator. You can count on J.R. and the team to provide excellent customer service — and they’re fast, too! We will continue to support Mentors Moving and rely on them with all our moving and storage needs.

I interviewed 3 moving companies to move my medical clinic location in early September. I chose Mentors as being both reasonable and professional and I was not disappointed. I was in two adjacent buildings moving into one single building so it was a challenging move. Lots of very heavy furnishings and medical equipment. They sent two trucks and a great crew of four. They started at 9:00am and were finished by 12:30pm, fast, efficient and very polite. I had an enormous plant that was over 20 years old and they actually walked it to my new building a few blocks from my old location instead of putting it on the truck! I highly recommend Mentors Moving & Storage!

Nate Chavin

Professional and friendly staff. Had a vault moved here from American Storage and it was a smooth transition, I couldn’t be happier with the service.

The Warehouse and Movers Behind Your FF&E Project

Mentors Moving & Storage

Project goods can wait in climate-controlled storage until the building is ready. That matters for wood case goods, upholstery and stone tops that sit for weeks between delivery and install. Our Santa Rosa office keeps the receiving log, books the movers and trucks, and talks with your site lead before each delivery.

Need hands to unload a trailer your vendor already sent, or to shift furniture between floors? Book our movers by the hour, no truck needed.

Each of these is planned by the same Santa Rosa office that runs your receiving, so dates for storage, delivery and install stay on one calendar. Tell us which ones your project needs when you send the item list, and they go on the same written quote as the receiving and install work.
