Moving across Marin? Our San Rafael movers reserve curb space ahead and move houses, condos and apartments at an hourly rate set in writing. Request your quote now.
We only contact you about this request. Your number is never shared.
San Rafael limits oversized and commercial vehicles to one hour of parking on public streets citywide, except while they are actively loading or unloading. Our San Rafael movers plan every job around that rule: the truck arrives ready to work, stays only while we load or unload, and never waits on the street overnight between the days of a two-day move.
We have moved households since 2019, and every quote is written before you book.
San Rafael counted 61,271 residents in the 2020 Census, and its street rules make curb space the first thing we plan.
San Rafael moves are priced by the hour, and that hourly rate covers the movers together with the truck. These three things decide the total.
A truck parked close to your door means shorter trips and fewer billed minutes.
The number of rooms and heavy pieces sets the mover count and truck space.
Billed drive time covers travel between the old and new address.
Match your home to a row below. Your written quote names the mover count before you book, with no hidden fees added later.
| Movers and truck | Good for | Starting rate |
|---|---|---|
| 2 movers, 1 truck | Studio, 1 bedroom or small office | from $170/hr |
| 3 movers, 1 truck | Large 1 bedroom to 3 bedroom home | from $230/hr |
| 4 movers, 1 truck | 3 bedroom home or larger office | from $290/hr |
Local jobs have a 3-hour minimum, with drive time billed as well. Pads, wrap, dollies and furniture disassembly are covered by the rate. Fuel surcharge, packing materials, valuation and storage are billed on separate lines.
We pack every room or only the kitchen, closets and fragile pieces. Each carton is labeled with its room and a short list of contents for a faster unload in San Rafael.
Our storage is monitored around the clock. We pick up from your San Rafael home, list every item on an inventory and deliver on the date you choose, whether that is next week or next season.
When a parent moves to a smaller home or a senior community, we sort, pack and set up the new rooms so the first night feels familiar.
San Rafael offices move after hours or on weekends, with desks tagged by room and workstations rebuilt at the new suite.
Upright and grand pianos are padded, strapped to a piano board and moved with enough hands for front steps and tight turns.
Already rented a truck or a portable container? Our movers load or unload it, pad the furniture and stack the load tight so it rides safely to the new address.
Leaving the state? Our long distance movers plan the trip. Moving to another California city? See our intrastate movers.
Every part of the process was smooth, efficient and effective; from the first phone call and consultation to when they pulled away after having moved all of my items from a storage unit and some additional items from a house. I would highly recommend minors moving.
Miguel, Hector, and Antonio were very professional and courteous throughout the duration of our move…they made it a lot less stressful and showed genuine concern for our personal belongings. We are 100% satisfied with the service we received!
Will, Sean, and Gil were fantastic during our move from Santa Rosa. They were excellent and professional while both loading and unloading our possessions. I will definitely use Mentors Moving and Storage again for future moves.

Less to move means fewer billed hours. Here is how to lighten the load in San Rafael.
Single-family homes get the city Bulky Waste Pickup only twice a year, so it seldom lines up with a moving date.
Marin Sanitary Service will collect large items for a fee, which fits a move-out deadline better than waiting.
Mark what stays, what goes to the new home and what leaves for good, so our movers load only the right pieces.
Before the truck leaves, we check closets, the garage and the yard with you so nothing is left behind.
Many San Rafael moves start or end in a nearby town. These pages and our Santa Rosa moving company page cover the details.
No. Oversized and commercial vehicles may park only while actively loading or unloading, so we bring the truck on move day and leave when the work is done.
Request them at least a week before you need them, and earlier if you can. We tell you where the truck needs to stand so the signs cover the right spot.
Yes. We add movers for walk-ups so carries stay steady, and the extra time is billed at the same hourly rate.
Yes. A move between San Rafael and Santa Rosa is a local job, billed by the hour with drive time included.
Yes. We pick up from your home, keep your things in storage and deliver when you are ready.
