Long distance movers from Santa Rosa to Salt Lake City, UT, who load your home, cross the Sierra and Nevada on Interstate 80 on one truck and set every room up in Utah. Request your free quote.
We only contact you about this request. Your number is never shared.
The route climbs the Sierra Nevada first, then runs for hours across the Nevada desert before it reaches the Salt Lake Valley. Google Maps puts the trip at about 11 hours of driving without stops. Your belongings ride on a dedicated truck the whole way, so nothing is moved to another truck at a depot in Reno or Elko.
If your Utah closing date falls after your Santa Rosa move-out, we can hold the load in climate-controlled storage, which keeps wood, leather and electronics away from summer heat and winter cold until delivery.
Find your home size below for the usual cost of this move. The movers, the truck, the climb over the Sierra, the desert miles and the fuel surcharge are inside each range.
A small home with easy parking sits near the low end. A full house, a long carry, steep steps or a peak summer week moves it toward the high end.
Packing, cartons, storage and extra valuation coverage are add-ons with their own prices.
A move from California into Utah is interstate, so FMCSA rules apply. Its Protect Your Move page lays them out. Four steps for this trip:
If a problem with any interstate mover cannot be solved directly, you can file a complaint with FMCSA online.
When you apply, your old state license is surrendered, and drivers licensed before take a 25-question open-book test, per the Utah Driver License Division.
Houses sign up by phone or in person with Public Utilities, and the city drops off three carts that go out by 7 a.m. on collection day, per Salt Lake City.
Old mattresses or furniture you do not want after unpacking can go out through Call 2 Haul, one of two pickups a year, set out no more than 24 hours early.
The four man crew hustled the whole day. They worked hard and they were very courteous, also very patient moving everything to the spot we requested.
Steven, Arturo, and Brendan are the best! The move-in process didn’t quite take up the 3-hour minimum, but they were nice enough to offer to set up furniture and rearrange the boxes from room-to-room for the extra 40 minutes. They genuinely handled my belongings with care, which I really appreciated. I hope I don’t have to move for a while, but I would definitely call Mentors Moving again.
I have nothing but positive things to say about Mentor Moving Company. I made my final decision to go with them based on the incredible phone call I had with David. The movers showed up right on time. They were polite, communicative, very hard workers and problem solver as to how to get some of my furniture out of my tiny house. They were very efficient unloading my furniture and putting it into the right place. Nothing was damaged or broke. I would highly recommend this moving company to any of my friends

We inventory the house, pad every piece and drive it east on a dedicated truck with a delivery window set before loading. One coordinator stays your contact from the first call to the last box in Utah.
Packers handle the whole house or just the kitchen, glassware and electronics, and unpacking at the Salt Lake City end can be added. Every carton is labeled with its new room so unloading goes in order.
If the Utah closing slips, the load waits in storage until you have keys, then heads east on its own schedule. Wood, leather and electronics stay out of summer heat and winter cold while they wait.
Pianos get a padded board, straps and extra movers for the stairs at both homes. The piano rides tied to the truck wall, padded on every side, for the whole trip across Nevada.
Renting your own truck for the drive? Our movers can load it in Sonoma County, with heavy pieces in front and every row strapped so the load holds on the grades.
Safes, gym equipment and large art pieces get the crates, boards and planning they need. Tell us about them at booking so the right equipment and extra hands come on loading day.
Also from our Santa Rosa office: white glove delivery and corporate relocation, each added to the same plan.
The first climb comes early, over Donner Pass in the Sierra, and winter can be heavy or light at the Utah end.
One call to our Santa Rosa office gets your Salt Lake City range and a loading day.
Usually two to three days. The drive is a long day and a half for a loaded truck with rest stops, and the delivery window is set in writing before we load.
It can. When chain controls are posted, the driver chains up and slows down, and if the road closes the truck waits and we call you with a new time.
Call or visit Salt Lake City Public Utilities when you set up water service. The city then delivers your carts to the house.
Book a Call 2 Haul bulky item pickup with the city, or ask us about storage until you decide.
Yes. Your household can wait in climate-controlled storage after pickup and head to Salt Lake City once you have keys. Storage is priced on its own line.
Call (707) 326-4479 or send the form with both addresses, your target dates and your home size. Our Santa Rosa office replies with a price range and a planned loading day.
