Moving to Another State? Here’s the Easy Way (Especially if You’re Leaving San Diego)
Thinking about moving out of California? Maybe you’re headed to Texas, Oregon, or Arizona. One of the first big questions that you need to consider:
How do I move all my stuff without spending a fortune or having to rent and drive a giant rental truck?
That’s exactly why Big Box Storage offers a simple, stress-free solution for long-distance moves. As a local San Diego company, we know what it takes to make your move smoother—and more affordable.
Here’s How a Long-Distance Move Works with Big Box:
Step 1: We Deliver the Big Box to Your Home in San Diego
No need to rent a truck or rush through packing. We drop off one (or more) of our Big Box containers right at your place in San Diego County. Each one is:
8’ long x 5’ wide x 7’ tall
Perfect for about one to one-and-a-half rooms of furniture and belongings
You take your time loading it up—no pressure, no strangers in your home, and no hourly moving crew watching the clock.
Step 2: We Pick It Up and Handle the Shipping
Once you’re packed, we’ll swing by and pick up your Big Box. From there, we’ll store it securely at our San Diego facility—you get 30 days of storage free while you get settled on your end.
Then, when you’re ready, we’ll coordinate the freight shipment directly to your new destination, anywhere in the continental U.S.
Step 3: Choose What Works Best at Your Destination
We give you two flexible options for receiving your belongings:
Option 1: Let a Local Mover Handle It
We’ll arrange for a local, licensed and insured mover near your new home to receive your Big Box, bring your items to your place, and handle unloading. Easy and hands-off.
Option 2: Do It Yourself and Save
Prefer to save some cash and handle it on your own? We’ll ship your container to a nearby freight terminal where you can pick up your items within 3 days of the Big Box arriving!
