Are you licensed and insured?
- Name of Your Moving Company and Baker Registration ID Number: As listed above, please provide your customers with our company name, Gorilla Movers, and the Baker registration ID number 22053.
- Approximate Weight of the Shipment: To receive an accurate insurance quote, it’s essential to provide an estimate of your shipment’s weight.
When is the best time to move in San Diego?
San Diego weather makes moving easy year-round, but spring and fall tend to offer the best mix of mild temperatures and flexible scheduling. Summer and end-of-month dates fill up fast, so we recommend booking early during those times.
How do I select the best moving company in San Diego?
Look for a licensed, insured company with great reviews, upfront pricing, and full-service options. At Gorilla Movers, we back every move with experienced pros, modern equipment, and a reputation built on trust, care, and customer service.
Do I need to be home during the move?
Yes, we recommend that you or someone you trust is present during the move to answer questions, provide access, and do a final walkthrough. It helps the move stay smooth and stress-free from start to finish.
