The Cost of Hiring Movers in Sunnyvale, CA

On average, it costs $383.83 to hire moving helpers in Sunnyvale, CA. Your actual price will depend on how long your move takes—but across Sunnyvale, the typical hourly rate for moving labor is around $86.36.

These average costs reflect “labor-only” moves—where you hire movers to load or unload your rental truck, shipping container (like a PODS container), or storage unit. It’s one of the most cost-effective ways to move and is often far more affordable than hiring a full-service moving company—more on that below.

The Cost of Full-Service Moving

The average cost of a local full-service move in Sunnyvale, CA is $912.07, with an average hourly rate of $140.03. Full-service moves do cost more, but they come with serious convenience—you won’t need to rent a truck, drive it, or coordinate a shipping container.

Prefer the all-in-one, hands-off experience? Full-service might be your move. Here’s how it compares to labor-only options.

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.

Excellent movers. I highly recommend them. They are professional, diligent and super fast. I had other movers help me the prior two days and MovingZoom was by far better than the prior movers and they exceeded my expectations. Moreover, the teamwork between the two movers was phenomenal and they skillfully loaded two large moving pods.

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!

These guys worked! They communicated about arrival time and showed up on time. They worked very hard, helped make sure our stuff was protected and worked tirelessly to get things moved quickly. They had packing know how and maximized what went into our storage unit. Would definitely use them again.

They movers were extremely professional and competent. They were able to pack our entire house into three U-pack cubes (we should have ordered four). They helped break down beds, cover furniture in sheets, and even brought their own moving supplies when we ran out. I would highly, highly recommend them.
