The Los Angeles to San Francisco run is one of our highest-volume long-distance lanes. Tyrese leads the crew over the Grapevine and rides shotgun through the Central Valley. Same PEM movers from LA curb to SF doorstep — one signed California flat figure.
Route & timing
I-5 north out of Burbank, over the Grapevine, through Bakersfield and the Central Valley, west on I-580 past Tracy, into the East Bay, then over the Bay Bridge or up 101 depending on your block. About six driving hours, a day-and-a-half curb-to-curb for most homes.
