Oakland’s Trusted Long Distance Moving Company
Cross Country Moving is a fully licensed and insured interstate moving company serving Oakland, California and the entire East Bay region.

Oakland has become one of the Bay Area’s most active relocation markets. With housing costs pushing residents eastward and the rise of remote work opening up new cities, more Oakland families and professionals are moving out of state each year. We specialize in long distance moves from the Bay Area to destinations like Austin, Dallas, Houston, Phoenix, Las Vegas, Denver, Miami, and beyond.

Oakland Long Distance Moving FAQ
How much does it cost to move from Oakland to another state?
Long distance moves from Oakland typically range from $2,200 for a small 1-bedroom to Nevada, up to $19,800 for a 4+ bedroom home to the East Coast. A typical 2–3 bedroom Oakland home moving to Texas costs $5,800 to $8,900 all-inclusive. Every Cross Country Moving quote is a binding flat rate — no weight tickets or surprise fees.
How far in advance should I book my Oakland long distance move?
We recommend booking 4–8 weeks in advance, especially during peak moving season (May through September). For moves during the off-season (October through April), 2–3 weeks notice is usually sufficient. Last-minute moves from Oakland are often possible — call us directly to check availability.
How long does a move from Oakland to Texas or Arizona take?
Most Oakland-to-Texas moves arrive in 4–7 days; Oakland-to-Arizona takes 3–5 days. Transit times depend on distance, crew scheduling, and weather. Because we run a single-crew, single-truck model, there’s no warehouse layover — your belongings go directly from your old home to your new one.
Do you provide packing services for Oakland moves?
Yes. We offer full-service packing (we pack everything), partial packing (we pack kitchens, artwork, or other items you choose), and you-pack options.

Cross Country Movers You Can Trust
When California families search for cross country movers, they are looking for two things: a licensed interstate carrier (not a broker) and transparent, inventory-based pricing. Cross Country Moving LLC is a fully licensed FMCSA household-goods carrier operating under USDOT #2022745 and MC #711417 — one of the few cross country movers in California that owns its own trucks, employs its own crews, and quotes binding flat-rate pricing after a detailed home survey.
Unlike broker-style cross country movers that hand your job off to the lowest-bidding sub-carrier, we are the company that actually shows up, loads the truck, drives it, and delivers it. That accountability is the difference between a stress-free long-distance relocation and the horror stories you read online. Every quote, every crew, every truck — one company, one chain of custody, start to finish.
