The Cost of Moving Services in Fairfax, CA

Beyond factors like home size, heavy items, and stairs, the biggest cost difference comes down to your moving service type.

In Fairfax, you can choose a full-service move, where your moving team handles everything after you pack, or a labor-only move, where your movers simply load and/or unload your truck or container—offering big savings in exchange for more work on your part.

Professional!!! Not only were they early (they called and asked if it was OK), but they were focused on the task. Courteous , kind, careful and thorough. I wish I could hire them for the other end of my move. We have moved dozens of times and the two gentlemen we had today were among the best ever. Really appreciate their speed and efficiency. 10/10 recommend

Carlos and Purcell were excellent! They were kind, timely, and extremely hard-working. I would highly recommend them. We were very stressed leading up to moving day and their expertise and efficiency made things much less stressful. Not only were they respectful of our belongings, they were also friendly and easy to work with. Thank you both!

WOW these guys did a great job making sure everything was safe and ready for the drive south. They were fast and efficient and knew how to place everything in the Container. They also resolved the issue with a leaky POD since it rained the day before I would definitely hire again and again

The team arrived on time and immediately inquired where items were to be placed. Then surveyed the path into the house and where items were to be placed. Almost all the items were placed in garage and were stacked carefully. The unloading of our 16ft PODS took a little over an hour. Wasted no time worked efficiently.

Highly rate this team. They showed up on time and got the job done. They were very proactive with communication and showed up with 4 guys ready to do the work. I used them to load up my home into two pods that were going into storage. You could tell they had experiences loading these containers and were very methodical with their approach.

Bob and Joe were great! They worked very hard and were very efficient. They were able to come earlier. Bob has a lot of experience and was able to pack things safely without some excessive supplies I had purchased from Uhaul so I was able to return them for a refund. Would definitely use again.

We were very happy with McLeod Moving. We moved across the country so we needed a lot of help with packing and loading the truck. Douglas, Joseph, and Brandon were fast, efficient, and courteous. They went above and beyond to get our truck loaded so we could get on the road. I highly recommend McLeod Moving.
