How it all started
A father’s delivery route, taken over in 2013
David Sun grew up riding along on his father’s small delivery route out of the Irwindale rock-yards, and took it over outright in 2013. One truck and a handful of regular stops turned into steady work faster than he expected, and within a year he had a waitlist instead of a route to run alone.
What started as a one-truck delivery run turned into a licensed moving company, and the same instinct still runs the business: keep the price straightforward, and never send a truck that isn’t ours.

What we haul
See Pricing
From a studio apartment to a full house
Michelle leads our local and apartment crews, Danny runs every long-distance haul and anything that needs rigging, and between the two of them they’ve moved half the San Gabriel Valley.
Not your average move
The jobs that need more than a dolly
A piano nobody in the house can budge, a gun safe wedged in a back bedroom, boxes with nowhere to go until the new place is ready — this is where Danny and Michelle stop being generalists.
Full-Service Packing
Nobody has a free weekend to box a whole kitchen — give Linda a date and Michelle's crew has it done before the truck backs in.
Piano Moving
An upright and a baby grand don't move the same way, so Danny wants to know which one you own before he puts a number on the stairs.
Safe & Gun-Safe Moving
Floor safes and gun safes don't come loose with a dolly and good intentions — Danny's crew brings the straps and the rigging plan first.
Short-Term Storage
Between leases? Our own Irwindale bay holds your stuff, not a rented unit clear across the valley.
This is Sun's Transport
Two addresses and a date is all we need to start
Linda turns most San Gabriel Valley requests around the same day, studio or full house.
Why people keep calling us back
Why choose Sun's Transport
A move goes smoother with a crew that already knows your building.
- 01 We size the crew to the load, not the calendar A one-bedroom apartment gets two movers and a smaller truck; a five-bedroom house gets a full crew. You never pay full-household rates for a couch and a few boxes.
- 02 Marcus already knows the 210 and 605 backups Foothill Blvd construction, the Arrow Highway bottleneck, the first-of-the-month rush near the apartment complexes — the window you get is built around the actual streets, not a map estimate.
- 03 California-licensed, and we will prove it on request Our household-goods carrier permit covers every in-state job, and federal DOT and MC authority picks up wherever a move crosses into Nevada, Arizona, or beyond — ask and we will show the paperwork, not just say the words.
- 04 David still checks the dispatch board most mornings He, Linda, Marcus, Danny, and Michelle are the same five people running this company today, and whoever shows up at your door works for one of them directly.
Start to finish
How a move actually goes with us
1
Tell Linda what is actually coming with you
A studio, a shared house, an odd piece like a piano or gun safe — she turns that into a real number, usually within the hour, not a callback three days later.
2
Marcus locks your truck and crew to the date
Once you say yes, dispatch reserves the equipment and sorts out anything your building or block requires ahead of time, elevator reservations included.
3
The crew works the plan, not a guess
Furniture gets wrapped before it moves, doorframes get covered, and the truck rolls on the timeline Marcus already worked out with you.
4
Your stuff lands exactly where you wanted it
Beds and desks get put back together at the new place, and the number on the invoice matches the number Linda quoted — no add-ons after the fact.
Built into the rate, not billed separately
What every move already includes
- Furniture pads and shrink wrap go on before anything leaves the room
- Straps, dollies, and hand trucks are already built into the hourly rate
- You hear the number before we ever touch a box
- Every mover is a background-checked employee, never a day-labor pickup

- Beds, desks, and shelving go back together at the new address

I had Terrence and Chewy come to my apartment and move everything out. They did a fantastic job and got everything moved from my apartment to my storage unit in about 2 and half hours. They were so nice and polite. I would recommend these two guys. Great job guys. Thank you for making my move so pain free.

They provided exactly the services that we were needing. The project wasn't too large and none of our stuff was damaged in the process.
Jessica Barber
Glendora · Local move · Yelp
Leland and Dan were fantastic! They were very friendly and professional. We weren't completely ready when they showed up but they stayed positive the entire time. I will definitely work with them again in the future!

On the invoice, not just in a sales pitch
Four things that never change job to job
Same rules whether it’s a studio apartment or a five-bedroom house in West Covina.
Your quote already accounts for the stairs
A third-floor walk-up, a gated complex, an elevator reservation window — Linda builds all of it into the number before the crew ever loads a box.
Late arrival costs us, not you
Marcus commits to a real window when he books your date. If the crew misses it, the first hour of labor is free, automatically.
Your deposit comes back, not just off the bill
The $175 deposit that holds your crew and truck is fully refundable once the job closes out — it is never an extra charge on top of the hourly rate.
One set of paperwork, in-state or out
Our California DMV household-goods carrier permit covers everything inside the state, and federal DOT and MC authority takes over the second a job crosses into Nevada or Arizona.
Questions we hear most
Frequently asked questions
Is Sun's Transport actually licensed to do this?
Yes. Our California DMV household-goods carrier permit covers every in-state job, and federal DOT and MC authority on file covers anything crossing a state line. Every load also rides under cargo coverage.
How does your pricing actually work?
Straight hourly, by crew size: $165/hr for a 2-mover crew, $215/hr for 3 movers, $265/hr for 4 movers. A refundable $175 deposit holds your date, and it comes back once the job is done.
Can you work around my building move-in window?
Yes, that is exactly the job. Marcus confirms elevator reservations and assigned move blocks with you ahead of time, so the crew arrives ready instead of guessing at the building rules.
What if my new place is not ready when the truck shows up?
It happens more often than you would think, especially around lease turnover. We hold your things in our own Irwindale bay, billed month to month, until the address is actually ready.
Can multiple households moving together get one combined quote?
Yes, and it usually costs less per household than booking separately. Give Linda the full item list for everyone involved and she will quote one truck.
How far does Sun's Transport actually travel?
All of Irwindale and San Gabriel Valley — Azusa, Baldwin Park, Duarte, and the towns further out — plus regular long-distance runs to Las Vegas, Phoenix, San Francisco, San Diego, and Sacramento under our own authority.
Ask first, decide later
Ready for a real number instead of a guess?
Linda is at the Irwindale office most of the day and can turn a written estimate around fast. Rather talk it through on the phone first?
