Most Santa Rosa to San Jose moves wrap up in a single day. Our movers pack, load, drive around the Bay and unload at your new door. See your written price before you book.
We only contact you about this request. Your number is never shared.
Most homes leave Santa Rosa in the morning and are set up in San Jose by evening. We pick the route around the Bay for the truck, not for a car, and we plan the drive around rush-hour traffic at both ends.
Your quote lists every added service on its own line, so there are no hidden fees, and the same movers handle your home from the first box to the last.
The ranges below are for the full trip by home size. They include the movers, the truck, the drive to the South Bay and the fuel surcharge.
The amount you move, parking and stairs at each home, and the day of the week decide where your move lands inside its range. A weekday move with easy curb parking at both homes usually sits lower than a weekend move into a building with an elevator.
Packing, materials, storage and added valuation coverage are not part of the range and are priced separately.
Two rules shape the route a loaded truck takes from Sonoma County to the South Bay. The Golden Gate Bridge toll page and the Caltrans truck restriction page explain them.
The Bureau of Household Goods and Services sets the rules for in-state moves. Here are four things to know for this trip.
Under the state tariff, the mover must unload once you pay the Not to Exceed Price plus any valid change orders, even if the mover thinks more is owed.
The same rule says payment by credit card counts as cash payment for delivery.
San Jose homes are enrolled in San Jose Clean Energy, the city power supplier, when electric service starts.
Expect an enrollment notice within two months of starting service, and one PG&E bill that includes your power charges.
From our first inquiry call through our move today, the team at Mentors has been great. Thomas and his team today were beyond professional. They arrived on-time, moved everything we had in the amount of time we were quoted, and were just overall a courteous and helpful group of professionals. We would certainly recommend the Mentors team to others who need help with a hassle free move. Thank you!
Our move was very smooth and easy, and Blaine and Zack made sure all the details or taken care of. There were no surprises and the actual cost was less than the estimate. Gilbert, Anthony, and Adam were the gentleman that I actually did the physical work and they were very professional and efficient and definitely knew what they were doing. We will definitely use Mentors Moving again And recommend them to our friends!
We just moved apartments and hired Mentors to assist with the large furniture (beds, couch, dressers etc.). They showed up on time, were extremely friendly and professional, and completed our move faster than what we were quoted for, so we spent less than we thought we were going to! We had Josh and Hector help and can’t thank them enough. They really made our move enjoyable!

The movers who load your home in Sonoma County are our own employees, and they finish the job in San Jose.
We plan the bridge, the toll and the truck-legal freeways before the truck leaves Santa Rosa.
For most households, loading and unloading fit inside one working day.
Bottles, framed art and glass get cartons and padding made for them.
Runners and door pads go down at both homes before the first piece moves.
Your quote shows the price range for your home size, with extras listed one by one.
Yes, for most homes. The drive is a little over an hour and a half without traffic, so loading, driving and unloading fit in one day unless the home needs two trucks.
Your written range covers the movers, the truck, the drive and the fuel surcharge. Ask about tolls when we quote, and if one applies to your route we list it.
Usually south on US 101, then around the Bay on freeways that allow heavy trucks. Part of the East Bay route is closed to them, so we plan around it before loading day.
Start electric service with PG&E before move day. You are enrolled in San Jose Clean Energy by default and get one combined bill.
Yes. You can move part of your home to San Jose and keep the rest in storage until you need it.
Call or send the form with both addresses, your date and your home size. We reply with a written price range and a planned start time.
