I cannot recommend WellKnown enough. The team arrived EARLY, packed quickly, and graciously moved all of my things into my new 5th floor walkup without a single complaint.

Experienced & Professional Movers

Philadelphia ⇆ Los Angeles & Nationwide Routes

Our movers regularly work along major interstate highways such as I-76, I-70, I-15, and I-10, which allows us to plan efficient routes and avoid unnecessary delays. We take into account all the logistical challenges of Philadelphia's urban areas and Los Angeles' residential regulations, including apartment complexes, high-rises, and gated communities.

From coordinating parking permits to providing Certificates of Insurance (COI) for condominiums and managed properties, we take care of all the details so you don't have to worry about them.

Our Long-Distance Moving Team

Each move is supervised by an experienced crew leader with a minimum of three years of long-distance moving experience. All team members are thoroughly vetted, fully trained, and proficient in safe packing, loading, and unloading techniques.

Our moving trucks are equipped with professional equipment for transporting bulky, fragile, and high-value items over long distances. Furniture, appliances, and delicate belongings receive maximum protection throughout the entire move.

Customizable Services

Before your move, we will contact you to discuss your inventory, packing needs, and any special storage or transportation requirements. Based on this information, we will select the optimal team and equipment. We also offer additional services, including packing and unpacking, furniture-only moves, and shared moves to help reduce costs on long-distance routes.

Flat-Rate, Transparent Pricing

Our flat-rate pricing means that stairs, elevators, or long carries do not affect the final cost. The only exceptions involve extremely heavy or complex items, such as pianos, pool tables, or oversized specialty equipment.

A deposit is required to reserve your moving date, which is fully refundable if canceled at least two weeks in advance.

Why Move to Los Angeles

Los Angeles offers a diverse lifestyle, great job opportunities, high-end entertainment, and year-round sunshine. With beaches, hiking trails, museums, famous landmarks, and lively neighborhoods, there is something for everyone.

Beach lovers will enjoy areas such as Santa Monica, Venice Beach, and Manhattan Beach. Surfing, coastal walks, and the famous Santa Monica Pier are popular here. For those who enjoy active recreation, there are trails in Griffith Park, which offers views of the city and the famous Hollywood Sign.

For those interested in culture and art, Los Angeles offers places such as The Getty Center, Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), and The Broad Museum. They feature classic and contemporary collections. Theaters and concert halls, including the Hollywood Bowl and Walt Disney Concert Hall, attract music and live performance lovers from across the country.

Families, professionals, and creative types choose LA for its thriving economy and wide range of lifestyles. Despite the city's size, choosing the right neighborhood helps you balance urban activity with everyday convenience.

Our Moving Process from Philadelphia to Los Angeles

Pre-Move Consultation

The first step: is to fill out the form, after which our manager will contact you for a free consultation. We answer any questions and tell you the estimated cost for your move from Philadelphia to Los Angeles. Remember: our long distance moving prices are formed on a flat scale. This means that the price we quote you won't change even if the job takes longer or shorter. Learn More About our Pricing

Plan and Customize Your Move

We develop a customized long-distance moving plan and determine the timing of the move. At this stage you need to decide whether you are doing the packing yourself or using our professional packing service. If you need additional services or special pricing, we'll find out during the call.

Loading and Transportation

On the appointed day and time, we arrive at the location in Philadelphia. If a packing service has been arranged, we carry out the packing on the same day or a day or several days in advance of the move. We load all the things into the truck, wrapping and disassembling the furniture beforehand. The presence of the customer during this process is highly desirable.

Arrange On-Time Delivery & Unpacking

Then we move straight to the final location in Los Angeles or make a stop at the storage, if this service has been purchased. We carefully unload all your belongings, leave them in the pre-agreed locations and collect the furniture. If arranged, we help unpack all items.

Post-Move Support

Afterward, we are available to provide counseling and help with any questions you may have after the move. If you find your belongings missing or damaged, please contact us as soon as possible. We will solve everything!

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Moving to Los Angeles with us ensures that your moving plan includes all the essential costs required by the movers. There's no need to worry about separate charges for the truck, tools, furniture assembly or disassembly, or even moving heavy items – it's all covered. We also offer flexibility with additional services: you can supply your own packing materials, or we can provide them. Plus, if you prefer, we can handle packing for specific items only. Visit our pricing page to learn more! 

Make a list of special items (or just memorize them) that movers need to pay attention to. First of all, these are heavy items (e.g. a piano, a bed, a big dresser). We need to know at least the approximate dimensions and weight. In the second place are fragile and valuable items, antiques, paintings, TV set, etc. This will help us to be better prepared. We also recommend that you clearly define whether you need additional services. If you are not sure yet, we will be happy to advise you. 

The cheapest time to move from Philadelphia to Los Angeles is from October to April. This is typically the low season, when demand for long-distance transportation is lower, so there are usually more available dates and better prices. Moves scheduled on weekdays and in the middle of the month are also usually cheaper than moves on weekends or at the end of the month. 

The amount you need depends on your future plans, but it should be at least $3,000-$7,000 to move to Los Angeles. This amount will include the cost of long-distance moving, travel, initial rent or deposit, and basic setup costs. However, the cost of living in Los Angeles is high, so experts recommend saving more and having enough funds to cover 2–3 months of living expenses to comfortably cover rent, utilities, transportation, and unexpected expenses after moving. 

Most often, when moving, people forget to update their address and transfer utilities and services. People often focus on packing and transportation and overlook mail forwarding, internet connection, insurance updates, and address changes in subscriptions. People also often forget to set aside essential items—important documents, chargers, medications, and everyday items that are better to take with you than send in the back of a truck.
