Packing in Lemon Grove, CA.
Packing for Lemon Grove customers, handled by uniformed San Diego County moving crews. Full-pack service for a typical San Diego 2-bedroom home runs $800 to $1,400 in labor plus $300 to $500 in materials, finished in one day before the move. We use manufacturer-grade double-wall boxes, dish-pack barrels, mattress bags, and mirror cartons, not the recycled liquor-store boxes some crews show up with.
Why is packing different in Central San Diego?
Central packing serves a lot of Hillcrest and North Park apartment moves where the kitchen is the bottleneck, packed shoulder-to-shoulder with old Pyrex, glass jars, and small appliances. We send a 2-person packing crew the day before move day, finish in 4-6 hours, then load the next morning so nothing sits packed and exposed overnight. Older Craftsman built-ins and china cabinets in Burlingame and South Park need custom crating because original glass panels are no longer sourceable. National City packs get bilingual labeling on request.
