At the new home
Every packer we send is an employee of Mentors Moving & Storage who has finished our 160-hour training program, and that training covers how a box is built as much as how a sofa is carried. Our packing services in Bakersfield start with the rooms you choose: the whole house, or only the kitchen, the china cabinet and the garage.
Packing usually happens the day before the truck arrives, so the house is ready to load when move day starts.
Packing service in Bakersfield typically totals $2,030 to $4,060, and a move with packing included typically totals $1,200 to $7,340. Three things change your number.
A full house takes longer than a kitchen and two closets.
China, glass, art and lamps take more paper and more time per box.
Each carton, roll of tape and bundle of paper we use shows up on the bill.
Packing hours use the same rates as moving hours, for movers and a truck.
| Movers and truck | Good for | Starting rate |
|---|---|---|
| 2 movers, 1 truck | Studio, 1 bedroom or small office | from $190/hr |
| 3 movers, 1 truck | Large 1 bedroom to 3 bedroom home | from $260/hr |
| 4 movers, 1 truck | 3 bedroom home or larger office | from $330/hr |
Each local job carries a 3-hour minimum plus billed drive time. Packing materials, fuel surcharge, valuation and storage are listed as separate lines on your quote.
The weather here changes how and when we pack.
This is the order we follow on most full-house packing jobs, from the walk-through to the last taped box. Every packer is background-checked before their first job.
We go through the house with you, note fragile pieces and set how many packers and boxes the job needs.
Cartons, paper, tape and wardrobe boxes arrive with the packers, so you never hunt for supplies.
Dishes and glasses are wrapped one at a time and packed upright, with heavy items low.
Books go in small boxes, linens in large ones, and clothes hang in wardrobe cartons.
Each carton is marked with its room and contents and stacked near the door for loading.
Four requests that fill most of our packing calendar, and how each one is handled.
Every room packed the day before the truck comes, for families who work right up to moving day.
The most fragile and slowest room handed to us, while you pack books, clothes and toys yourself.
Homes leaving California get extra paper and tighter cartons for the long ride in the truck.
Boxes emptied onto shelves and counters at the new home, with the paper and cartons hauled off.
Great experience with my recent move. I am a repeat customer. Mentors Moving is professional, courteous, efficient and very conscientious. Andreas and his crew did a wonderful job packing, delivering my items and unpacking at the new place. Highly recommend!
Loved this crew. Yesterday Carlos & Cruz packed us up and were VERY respectful, efficient and thorough. Today Cruz & Eber(sp?) were super fast and did a professional job. Thank you!!!
The team that Mentors Moving and Storage sent to help with my move was excellent! They were friendly and very professional. All my furniture was packed and wrapped to ensure it arrived safely. I would definitely recommend this company!

We pack homes room by room ahead of moving day, both in Bakersfield and in the cities to the north. The linked pages give local details for each one.
Small cartons for books, large ones for linens and wardrobe boxes for hanging clothes.
Plates stand on edge and glasses get their own paper, the way they ride safest.
Frames get corner protection and pads, and large mirrors go in mirror cartons.
Bases are wrapped, harps removed and shades packed alone so they keep their shape.
Every carton shows its room and a short contents line, so unloading goes fast.
At the new home we empty cartons onto counters and shelves and take the paper away.
Boxes we pack stack cleanly in storage, so a gap between homes is easy to bridge. Your household comes back out, room by room, when the new place is ready for it.
For homes leaving California, our packers use tighter cartons and extra padding built for a long ride, and every box goes on the inventory that travels with the truck.
Parents downsizing to a smaller home or assisted living get help sorting what goes, then careful packing for the dishes, photos and keepsakes they keep.
A piano in the house is padded and strapped to a board by movers who plan the stairs and doorways before anyone lifts it.
Packing yourself and renting a truck? Book movers by the hour to load the boxes you packed, with heavy pieces low and furniture padded.
Households moving overseas get export packing and a numbered carton list for the shipping papers, before the run to the port.
