School movers in Santa Rosa live by the academic calendar. A classroom move that spills into the first week of class costs teaching time, so we start with the dates the school is closed and plan backward from the first bell.
The movers we send are employees of Mentors Moving & Storage, and each one passes a background check before their first job, which matters on a campus with students nearby.
School and college moves in Santa Rosa are billed on hourly rates for movers and a truck. Three things set the hours on your job.
How many classrooms, offices and storage rooms move, and the distance between buildings.
Elevators, loading zones and the walk from the truck to each door.
Weekend or break-week work, and whether furniture goes into storage over the summer.
Your written quote lists the movers, the expected hours and any storage, so a district or department can approve it before the date.
| 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 |
Every local job has a 3-hour minimum plus billed drive time. Dollies, pads and shrink wrap are part of the hourly rate, while fuel surcharge, packing materials, valuation and storage appear as their own lines.
Four kinds of school work come through our Santa Rosa office, and each one runs on a different clock.
Department moves in Rohnert Park fit the weeks after commencement, when faculty have cleared their rooms and the halls are quiet.
The junior college winter break is the longest gap in its year, so lab carts and classroom furniture move then.
Santa Rosa City Schools rooms move after the last day of instruction in early June or over winter break, each reset to the teacher plan.
Staff and students arriving for fall need their households in place before classes start, and those weeks book early.

Our Dutton Avenue office quotes and schedules school moves across Sonoma County, and company-wide we run 1,200+ moves per year. That volume lets us staff a full break week when a school needs every room done at once.
You deal with one office from the walk-through to the last room.
Rohnert Park is home to Sonoma State, and we also move schools and student households in San Rafael, American Canyon and Napa. Click a town to see its moving page.
District and administration offices move on a labeled floor plan, often in the same break week as the classrooms they serve, so the whole site reopens together.
Surplus desks, chairs and summer overflow sit in storage through the break and return to the room written on their tag.
Music room and auditorium pianos move between buildings on a piano board with straps and padding, scheduled when rehearsals are off.
New classroom furniture is checked in at our warehouse and stays there until the rooms are ready, then it is delivered and installed before teachers come back.
Teachers can pack their own rooms, or our movers can box libraries, supply closets and shared spaces for them, labeling each carton for its new home.
Faculty joining or leaving Sonoma County from another state move with the same office that handles their campus, with an inventory that travels with the truck.
Moving a household for a new school year? Our movers handle homes across Sonoma County on the same hourly rates, and the office that plans your campus job can book your family move for the weekend before classes.
We plan school moves from these published dates.
Sources: Sonoma State, SRJC and Santa Rosa City Schools. We confirm before booking.
This is how we run most school jobs, from the first walk-through to the morning teachers return.
We visit each room with facilities staff and note elevators, loading zones and fragile equipment.
The work is booked inside closed days on the school calendar, with a buffer before students return.
Each carton, desk and cart is marked with the building and room it is headed to.
Trucks load one building at a time, so rooms empty and fill in a set order.
Desks and shelves go where the room plan shows, and we check each room with your contact.
Call our Dutton Avenue office now to hold your break dates.
