Before your Vallejo move begins, we work through the details that can cause delays later, so loading, transit, and delivery are easier.
Why AVL Instead of DIY?

AVL's flat-rate pricing means the number you get upfront is the number you pay. It's straightforward, honest pricing that lets you budget with confidence.
Saving Money vs. Saving Yourself
DIY moves require you to handle the heavy lifting, driving, and logistics yourself. American Van Lines takes that off your plate entirely.

Tips for Your Long-Distance Move From Vallejo
- Do a quick check a week out. Confirm your timeline, addresses, and contact numbers with your moving coordinator so everyone is on the same page.
- Separate what's not going on the truck. Set aside donation piles, trash, and anything you're keeping with you so nothing ends up loaded by mistake.
- Pack an essentials bag. Keep daily must-haves with you, including medications, chargers, important documents, and a few days of clothes.
- Transfer medical records in advance. If you're switching doctors or pharmacies, request records early so you're not scrambling to get care in a new city.
- Sort out the truck’s parking spot early. Vallejo has permit and parking requirements that apply to moving trucks. Handling that in advance beats improvising while a loaded truck sits idling.
- Confirm truck access. Vallejo has walkable, densely built neighborhoods where a full-size moving truck may not fit down the street or park close to your door. Tell your coordinator about narrow streets, alleys, or a long carry so the right equipment is assigned.
- File your change of address. Update your address with USPS before you go so mail follows you without a gap.
FAQs
How long does a long-distance move usually take?
The timeline for a long-distance move depends on distance, route, and scheduling. Most moves are completed within 3 to 14 days. Your move coordinator will provide an estimated delivery window before you book.
What's the best time of year to move?
The off-season, roughly late fall through early spring, tends to offer better availability and lower rates. Summer is the busiest time for movers, so if you're set on a summer move, booking at least 6 to 8 weeks ahead is key.
What is an inventory?
Your moving inventory is a room-by-room list of everything going on the truck. American Van Lines uses it to calculate your flat-rate estimate and confirm that every item is loaded and delivered as expected.
What payment methods do you accept, and when are payments due?
American Van Lines accepts major credit cards, debit cards, and certified checks. For long-distance moves, payment is generally collected at delivery. Your move coordinator will confirm the exact terms when you book.
Do you provide or sell packing materials?
Absolutely. Packing materials are included when you choose our packing service. If you'd rather handle packing yourself, we can supply boxes, tape, and other materials and have them delivered to your home.
