Residential Home Moving & Relocation

Your home is personal. Everything in it carries meaning — memories, history, and the life you've built. When it's time to move, you deserve a team that treats your belongings with the same respect you do.


Big Family Movers has been helping Bay Area families relocate since 2001. Our process starts with a walkthrough so we understand exactly what matters most to you. We get to work, we communicate every step of the way, and we don't stop until everything is exactly where you want it.


No hidden fees. No surprises. Just honest, skilled movers who take real pride in their work.

Extra care. Extra patience. Always.

Moving later in life is one of the most significant transitions a person can make. Whether you're downsizing from a family home, moving into an assisted living community, or helping a loved one make the move, Big Family Movers has been a trusted partner for seniors and their families since 2001.


We offer special rates for seniors and approach every senior move with the extra time, patience, and compassion it deserves. Our crew is experienced working with assisted living facilities and senior communities across the Bay Area, and we understand how to make the process as smooth and stress-free as possible.

Apartment complex resident moves

Multi-unit and multi-day projects

Professional Packing Services

We protect your memories.

Packing is more than putting things in boxes. It's making sure that everything you own — from everyday dishes to irreplaceable heirlooms — arrives at your new home exactly as it left.


Big Family Movers offers full professional packing services for residential and commercial customers. Our crew knows how to properly wrap, box, and protect items of all sizes and fragility. Whether you need us to pack a single room or an entire home, we bring the same care and attention to every item we touch.


We once moved a 5' x 6' oil painting — hand-painted by a customer's late father. Before the move, we described exactly how we would protect it. On moving day, we built a custom box for it and transported it safely. That painting was the one thing that really mattered to her. It mattered to us too.

If we are responsible for damage to your property, we will do our best to make you happy before we leave the job. If we are unable to come to an agreement the day of the move, we will resolve issues through our insurance company. In this case, the settlement will be based on the type of insurance you choose when filling out the Contract / Agreement for Moving Services the morning of your move (see Day of the Move). This contract and the California PUC information booklet explain your rights as a moving customer and will be provided to you before we start work.
Also, as licensed movers we carry liability and workers compensation insurance. This fully protects you from responsibility in the event that we do damage to any residence or ourselves.
