At Kometa Moving, professional moving services in San Diego start at $139 per hour for 2 movers and a truck. A 3-mover crew is $179 per hour, while 4 movers and a truck cost $219 per hour. These hourly rates include the moving crew, a fully equipped truck, moving blankets, dollies, tools, straps, furniture disassembly and reassembly, and basic packing materials.
The final cost of your move depends mainly on the size of your home, the number of movers required, total labor time, the driving time between your pickup and delivery locations, stairs or elevators, access conditions, and whether you have heavy or specialty items such as pianos or safes.
Kometa Moving has a 3-hour minimum and a $100 flat dispatch, fuel, and service fee. For applicable local California moves, Double Drive Time is calculated based on the driving time between your pickup and delivery locations. Before the move, you receive a written Not-To-Exceed estimate, which sets the maximum authorized price unless you request additional items or services in writing.

For example, a small one- or two-bedroom move may only require 2 movers and a truck at $139/hour, while a larger three- or four-bedroom home may be better served by a 3-mover crew at $179/hour. Choosing the right crew size can often reduce the total number of hours needed to complete the move. Want a more detailed estimate by home size? See our San Diego moving cost guide.
