Linda can often quote it from your description alone.
A residential move covers the whole house — garage, attic, shed, and all — not just what fits in a couple of apartment rooms. Sun’s Transport sizes the truck and crew to match, whether that’s a starter home in Duarte or a five-bedroom two-story in West Covina.
Crew Sizing by Home
| Home size | Typical crew | Rate |
|---|---|---|
| 1-2 bedroom / condo | 2 movers | $165/hr |
| 3 bedroom | 3 movers | $215/hr |
| 4+ bedroom | 4 movers | $265/hr |
Tell Linda your bedroom count and whether the garage is full — she’ll recommend the right crew before move day, not after the truck’s already half-loaded.
From Downsizing to Five-Bedroom Tract Homes
The San Gabriel Valley has a wide mix of housing — Craftsman bungalows near Irwindale and Azusa, 1960s-70s tract homes stretching through Covina and West Covina, newer construction further out toward Glendora and San Dimas. A residential crew has to handle a detached garage full of tools as easily as a narrow bungalow hallway.
What Our Residential Crews Handle
- Full households, including garage, attic, and shed contents
- Bed and large-furniture disassembly and reassembly
- Appliances, once disconnected by the homeowner beforehand
- Piano, safe, or other specialty items — flagged ahead so we bring the right equipment
Sorting the garage before move day cuts real time off the clock — even a rough keep/donate/toss pass the weekend before helps Michelle’s crew move faster.

What Irwindale customers told us
Paul Spracklen
Arcadia · Residential move · Google
Great work by Arthur and Juan. Super methodical and got out fine with zero damage during our move to Buda from Austin. Both Juan and Arthur were hard working and explained what they were doing and when.
Justin Swinney
Baldwin Park · Residential move · Google
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.
The rest of the lineup
Need a different kind of move?
Same Irwindale crew handles all of these across San Gabriel Valley, not a separate subcontractor per service.
Local Moving
Michelle's crew has hauled enough Covina bungalow furniture and Baldwin Park apartment loads to size a truck from the address alone.
Long-Distance Moving
Danny runs the same truck all the way to Vegas or Phoenix — nobody hands your boxes off to a stranger halfway there.
Apartment & Condo Moving
We know which Covina and Baldwin Park complexes need a certificate of insurance before the freight elevator opens.
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.
Questions that come up on this job
Answered before you have to ask twice
How many movers does a typical SGV house need?
A 1-2 bedroom home usually runs on 2 movers at $165/hr. A 3-bedroom needs 3, and a 4-bedroom-plus typically runs a 4-person crew at $265/hr. Tell Linda your layout and she'll confirm.
Do you move garage and shed contents too?
Yes — a residential move covers the full property, not just the living space. Mention a packed garage or shed when you book so we plan the truck size accordingly.
Can you add packing to a residential move?
Yes, our full-service packing crew can handle part or all of the house — ask about combining it with your move date.
What day of the week is easiest to book?
Weekday moves generally have more schedule flexibility than weekends. Call (888) 278-9005 and Linda can walk you through open dates.
What if I have a piano or gun safe in the house?
Flag it when you book — those need our rigging equipment and a different crew plan than standard furniture.
