Packing handled by our crew, not the night-before scramble
Packing is the job everyone underestimates. A three-bedroom in Sherman Oaks or a Spanish-style house in Pasadena holds far more than it looks like it should, and the midnight rush with liquor-store boxes is exactly how grandmother’s china ends up in shards. Pro Express Moving packs homes the way we move them — our own trained crew, proper materials, and a real system. We’ve done it across LA since 2013, and we’ll pack the entire house or only the rooms you don’t want to touch.
Across LA County, Los Angeles, CA movers handles premium moves on a single written flat rate, with nothing sprung on the invoice.
Everything comes from us: sturdy cartons, dish-pack kits for the kitchen, wardrobe boxes that keep hanging clothes on the rail, and the paper, bubble and tape to do the job right. Fragile and high-value pieces — stemware, framed art, the flatscreen, the mirror over the mantel — get custom-protected, not dropped in a carton with a wad of newsprint. The packing rides on the very same crew clock as the move, $149/hr with two movers or $209/hr with three, so you’re never charged a packing premium on top.
You decide how much we take off your plate:
- Full pack — we box, label and inventory every room the day ahead of the move
- Partial pack — kitchen, glassware, art and other breakables only; you handle the easy stuff
- Fragile-only — the irreplaceable pieces get packed by us and you save on everything else
- Unpack and haul-away — we open the boxes, place what’s inside, and cart the empties off
Every carton gets a room label so unpacking in the new place is orderly instead of an afternoon spent cracking open mystery boxes hunting for the coffee maker. Timing matters as much as materials — for a full house we pack the day before so the truck loads clean and move day holds its schedule despite the 405, and a small one-bedroom can get packed up and on the truck in a single morning. When our crew packs a box, it travels under your move’s coverage — $0.60/lb released value standard, full-value protection available, up to $1,000,000 in cargo coverage per shipment. A $99 deposit holds the dates and credits to the final bill. Get my free moving quote, tell us how hands-on you want to be, and we’ll size the packing crew and the timeline to match.

How we set the price
After a quick walkthrough or video estimate, we write up a single flat rate from the inventory you genuinely have — not from a clock ticking by the hour. Whatever the sheet reads is the entire price, with nothing tacked on afterward.
