School movers in Bakersfield have one fixed deadline: the day students walk back in. We plan every classroom, lab and office move backward from that date, count what is in each room and tag it with the building and room it is headed to. The trucks roll while the halls are empty.
Districts, colleges and private schools all hire us for the same reason. A break is short, and rooms have to work on the first morning back.

We walk each building with your facilities lead and list desks, cabinets, shelving and boxes by room.
No one works in your building until they have cleared our background check, which every mover passes before a first job.
Furniture is set to your room plan, so teachers unpack into a working classroom.
We price school and university moves in Bakersfield by the hour for the movers and the truck, starting at the rates in this table. A single classroom or office suite fits the smaller rows, while a wing or a whole building calls for more movers and often more than one truck.
Your hours depend on the number of rooms, the walk from each classroom door to the truck, elevator access in multi-story buildings and the length of the break. A short recess can call for extra movers working at once. We visit before we price the job, and the quote has no hidden fees.
Local jobs carry a 3-hour minimum, and drive time between campuses is billed by the hour. Pads, dollies and the tools to take desks apart are part of the rate. Fuel surcharge, packing materials, valuation and storage are billed on their own lines.
Most education moves here run on dates that three schools publish. We plan around each one.
This is the order we follow on most school jobs in Kern County, from the first visit to the last room check.
We count rooms, furniture and boxed contents and note elevators, ramps and truck access.
Each piece is labeled for the building and room your plan assigns it.
Our movers pack shared rooms. Teachers box only their personal items.
Trucks load while classes are out and unload into the new rooms the same day.
We set desks and shelves to the plan and walk each room with your contact.
Four kinds of school work, and how each fits the calendar.
The district calls itself California’s largest grades 9 to 12 district, with 19 comprehensive high schools plus continuation, adult and career technical sites. Multi-site moves get one room list per truck.
Department and lab moves at CSUB fit the spring break week or the summer. Benches, cabinets and boxed instruments are set down by room number.
With little time between terms at Bakersfield College, we often move part of a building first and finish the rest on a weekend.
Cartons are numbered by aisle and shelf, and the books return to the shelves in their original order.
Google reviews from customers of our Gilmore Avenue office, in their own words.
Price checked around and Mentors was the best option. They lock in the price based on a person coming out to collect the data. The price did not change at all compared to the other places. Brad, Charlie, Justin, Alex, and Burt were the men on our team. Charlie and Justin hustled in the heat, and it was HOT! Alex and Burt moved just as fast and busted it out! Burt went above and beyond to fix the couch. Our couch broke during the move, just a hinge. He went in with his tools and fixed it. This was the only moving accident and he fixed it on the spot! Brad was caring and very efficient. The team at the warehouse gave us used boxes and whenever I called with questions they answered them fully. So very thankful we went with Mentors! They cared from the initial walk through with Keith all the way to pulling out of our driveway. Thank you Mentors, you are one of a kind!
We have used Mentors Moving and Storage twice this year. Last week Reggie and Martin went above and beyond to help us move odd and heavy items, they were very respectful and careful with my mother’s furniture and didn’t have an issue when we needed more than one drop off location. They were timely, efficient, and very professional. Back in April Andres and Carlos N. Were also wonderful in using great care to wrap and protect special furniture, . I cannot say enough good things about the service and care we have received during both these moves. Mentors will be getting all of our future moves.
Moving across town. Only had 5 day notice. Got great quotes from other companies but they couldn’t do it until the end of the month. Mentor movers showed up on time. They asked necessary questions and off to work they went. Moved out and in with in 3 hours. Great crew great price great job. A definite value for the money.
Our company runs 18 trucks and 20 drivers registered with FMCSA, so a multi-site move can put several trucks on the road the same day. One office quotes the job, books the movers and keeps a single contact for your facilities manager from walk-through to the final room check.
Classroom work is one part of our Bakersfield moving services.
Schools and campus offices between Delano and Fresno can book the same classroom moving service. Open a town below for its local moving page.
We price from what changes the hours: the number of rooms, the buildings and floors involved, the break you need to fit and any lab or library contents. A walk-through lets us count it all before we write a number.
Packing and storage can be added, and each shows as its own line on the quote.
Each of these can run under the same plan and schedule as your classroom move.
Front offices, counseling suites and district departments moved and set up on the same tagged plan.

Yes. The recess lasts one school week, so we walk the rooms ahead of time and send enough movers to finish before students return. Book early, because the CSUB break lands in the same week.
We split it into phases. Rooms not needed for summer session move first, and the rest go over the weekend between terms, so classes open in working rooms.
Yes. We move lab benches, cabinets and boxed equipment that your department has prepared, and we set each piece by room number. Chemicals and hazardous materials stay with the university for its own handling.
Yes. Larger district jobs run with more than one truck, and each truck carries the room list for a single site so nothing lands in the wrong building.
Into our storage. We pick up desks, chairs and boxed supplies when the term ends and deliver them back to the finished rooms before fall.
Call in early spring. The walk-through, the room labels and the truck plan all take time to set before the first summer week.
Tell us the buildings, the number of rooms and the recess you have in mind. Call (661) 325-6683 or send the form, and we set a walk-through date.
