Need a moving company in Mill Valley for a hillside house or a flat near downtown? Get hourly rates in writing, careful stair carries and a free quote before you book.
We only contact you about this request. Your number is never shared.
Mill Valley had 14,231 residents in the 2020 Census, and many of them live on steep, winding streets below Mount Tamalpais. A house can sit far above the curb, reached by a long run of steps, or below it down a tight driveway. We look at both ends of the move before we pick the truck and the number of movers.
Every mover on your job is an employee of our company and was background-checked before working a first move. We pad railings and door frames, carry with care on the stairs and set each room up where you ask.
For a Mill Valley move you pay one hourly rate for the movers and the truck together. Start with the line in the table closest to your household size.
Stairs, a long carry from a hillside door and the drive between homes all add hours. The written quote estimates each one so the total does not surprise you.
Moves within the North Bay have a 3-hour minimum, and drive time is billed on top of it. The hourly rate covers moving pads, wrap, dollies and taking apart beds and tables. Fuel surcharge, cartons and packing supplies, valuation and storage appear as their own items.
JR and the whole team at Mentor’s Moving and Storage were exceptional with the move of a baby grand piano for us. They had to go down a steep hill of stairs and they were very efficient and methodical while taking great care at preserving the condition of the piano. To add to this, the piano is an antique from 1926, they moved it without any harm to the piano at all. Tough task.
My daughter and I used Mentors Moving in July 2023 to move her across town. It involved stopping at 2 other locations to pick up items. The movers (Chance, Jake and Juventio) were EXCELLENT! They hustled for 6 hours and were very, very careful with her belongings. They were great guys, worked together well and were able to maneuver around tight halls and narrow doorways to get the bunkbeds in. I couldn’t recommend them more!
We had a great moving experience with Arturo & Brandon from Mentors. They were friendly, hard workers, and moved the more fragile and larger furniture with great care. They packed the truck extremely efficiently. Great guys, thanks again!

Leaving Marin for another state? We load your Mill Valley home, drive your things across the country and unload on the date we set together. You get one assigned move coordinator from the first call to the last box.
Before the truck leaves, we list every piece and mark fragile boxes so they ride on top. Hillside homes get the same stair plan as any Mill Valley move, and wide pieces are wrapped for tight turns on the way down. When the new home is not ready yet, your things can wait in storage and travel when you are.
Our long distance movers page explains how those moves are priced and scheduled.
Mill Valley moves often start or end in a nearby town. These pages cover them, and our Santa Rosa movers page covers the hub office.
The hourly rate is the same as any home of that size. Hillside homes often take more hours because of steps and long carries, and the written quote shows how many we expect.
Usually yes. Tell us about tight turns, steep driveways and parking at both homes. When a full-size truck cannot get close, we plan a shorter truck or a longer carry.
Yes. We add movers for long stair runs and carry heavy pieces in stages. The city keeps a guide to its public steps, lanes and paths if you want to see the routes near your home.
Yes. Uprights and grands are padded, strapped to a board and carried with enough hands for the steps. See our piano movers page for more.
Yes. We pick up your furniture, keep it at our Santa Rosa warehouse and bring it back when the work is done. Our storage services page explains how.
Call (707) 326-4479 or use the form. Tell us both addresses, the steps at each home and your date, and we will email a written quote you can review before you book.
