What Customers Are Saying About STS Movers
Homeowners, renters, and businesses across Irvine trust us for organized moves, respectful crews, and clear communication from the first call to the final delivery.
S
We moved from our Woodbridge condo to a house in Tustin and the team handled both the HOA elevator reservation and the gate entry procedure without any issues. They wrapped everything securely and placed it exactly where we asked.
T
Moving out of a Portola Springs apartment during August heat could have been brutal, but the crew worked quickly and kept everything protected the whole time. They finished ahead of schedule and nothing was damaged.
A
STS Movers moved our two-bedroom in Quail Hill to a larger home in Newport Beach. They dealt with the parking restrictions, protected all the furniture carefully, and made the whole day feel manageable.
J
Great experience moving our office from Irvine to Anaheim. They labeled every section, handled the electronics with care, and had us back up and running in less than a day.
M
Reliable and professional. The Northwood apartment had a tricky staircase but the movers handled it without complaint and kept a good pace throughout the job.
D
I had a sudden lease deadline and needed help the next morning. STS Movers sent a crew out fast, moved a full two-bedroom's worth of furniture, and didn't cut any corners on how they handled it.
P
Used them for a UCI student move from on-campus housing to an apartment near the Irvine Spectrum. Very affordable, the crew was fast, and they helped reassemble furniture in the new place without being asked.
K
Long-distance move from Irvine to Phoenix. Our coordinator kept us updated throughout, delivery landed on time, and everything arrived in the same condition it left in.
R
Our home in Shady Canyon had a steep driveway approach — the crew handled it without hesitation. Everything was padded and delivered carefully to our new place in Mission Viejo without a scratch.
C
They moved a baby grand piano from our home in Turtle Rock. The legs came off cleanly, the body was wrapped perfectly, and there wasn't a single mark on our floors or walls at either end.
L
Third time I've moved in five years and by far the most organized experience. They sent a preparation checklist after booking, confirmed the day before, and arrived exactly on time. Would not use anyone else.

FAQ
Common Questions From Irvine Customers
Answers to what we hear most often — from first-time movers to customers who've relocated several times across Orange County.
How far in advance should I book a move in Irvine?
We recommend booking two to three weeks out, especially between May and September when UCI students are finishing the school year and demand across Orange County peaks. For urgent moves, call us directly — we often have same-week availability.
Do you work with HOAs and building management teams?
Yes. We're familiar with the elevator reservation systems and move-in procedures used across many of Irvine's planned communities. We coordinate with building contacts in advance so there are no hold-ups on moving day.
How do you handle gated community access?
Before moving day, we confirm access codes, guest vehicle procedures, and any entry time restrictions with you so our crew arrives without delays.
What should I know about parking permits for moving trucks in Irvine?
Many Irvine neighborhoods require a temporary parking permit for commercial vehicles. We advise you on what to request from your HOA or the city ahead of time, and our trucks are sized to fit most standard loading areas.
Do you provide packing materials?
Yes. Every full-service move includes blankets, shrink wrap, and tape at no extra charge. Additional supplies such as specialty boxes, dish kits, or custom crating are available at fair rates.
Are my belongings insured during transit?
All moves include standard liability coverage. If you have high-value items or want more comprehensive protection, ask your coordinator about enhanced valuation options before your move date.
Do you offer moving options for UC Irvine students?
We do. We offer affordable, flexible packages for dorm rooms, on-campus housing, and off-campus apartments. We plan around UCI's move-out deadlines and can often work early mornings to beat the summer rush.
What is the best time of day to move in Irvine given traffic?
Early morning starts — before 8 AM — help avoid peak congestion on the 405 and 5 freeways. Your coordinator can help you choose a window that minimizes drive time between locations.
Do you disassemble and reassemble furniture?
Yes. Beds, desks, dining tables, shelving units, and most standard furniture can be taken apart and put back together at the new location at no extra cost.
Can you move specialty items like pianos or safes?
Absolutely. We have trained crews and the equipment needed for pianos, pool tables, gun safes, and other heavy or awkward items. Let us know what you have when you book so we assign the right team.
Do you handle long-distance moves out of California?
Yes. We provide GPS-tracked interstate moves with a dedicated coordinator and scheduled delivery windows to all 48 contiguous states.
What items cannot be transported?
We cannot move hazardous materials, flammable liquids, ammunition, perishable food, or live plants. If you are unsure about a specific item, ask your coordinator before moving day.
