Monday to Friday, 8am to 5pm Pacific. Full service packing crews across San Francisco and the Bay Area. All materials included.
CG Moving provides full-service and partial packing for any Bay Area move. Free survey.
CG Moving Company provides specialized moving services for items that require more than a standard crew: pianos, heavy safes, fine art, antiques, pool tables, luxury furniture, and any oversized item that needs specialist handling and equipment. Specialty moves are available as a standalone service or as part of a larger residential or commercial move. Every specialty item move starts with a survey to confirm the item type, dimensions, access, and crew requirements.
Full service packing in San Francisco is particularly useful for larger properties (two bedrooms and above), properties with a fully-stocked kitchen, or any move where the customer does not have the time or materials to pack independently. The packing crew works room by room, wrapping and boxing every item and labelling every box with the destination room. The process is the same whether the property is a studio in SOMA or a four-bedroom house in Pacific Heights.

Full service packing covers every room: furniture wrapping, box packing, labeling, and load-ready.
Full service packing from CG Moving Company covers every room and item type in the property. Here is what the full service scope includes.
The kitchen is the most time-intensive room in any full service packing job. Each item is wrapped individually: dishes and bowls in packing paper, glasses and stemware in bubble wrap and dish dividers, small appliances (coffee makers, blenders, toasters) in fitted boxes with padding, and spice racks, pantry items, and dry goods in standard boxes. Pots and pans are layered with paper between each piece. Sharp knives are wrapped and taped before boxing. The crew labels each kitchen box with its general contents and the destination kitchen area.
Clothing on hangers goes into wardrobe boxes: the rail holds the hangers in transit, so hanging clothes arrive ready to go back in the wardrobe. Folded clothing, linens, pillows, and bedding go into standard boxes and blanket bags. Dresser drawers can be packed in place (the drawer is removed, wrapped, and transported) or emptied and the contents boxed separately. Jewellery and small personal valuables are packed by the customer; the crew notes which items are excluded from the packing scope.
Furniture is wrapped in moving blankets and corner guards before loading. Books are packed in small boxes (weight-appropriate), stacked flat. Media items (DVDs, vinyl, books) are packed upright in uniform small boxes. Decorative items, vases, and ceramics are individually wrapped in packing paper. Display shelving items are packed by the crew before the shelving unit is wrapped for transport. TV screens are packed in custom TV boxes or the original packaging where available.
Computers, monitors, and peripherals are packed in original boxes where available, or in appropriately sized boxes with foam cushioning. Cable sets are labelled or bagged before packing. Printers and scanners are packed individually. Document files and binders are packed in file cartons. Home office furniture (desk chairs, filing cabinets) is wrapped for transport. Sensitive documents packed by the customer are noted as excluded from the crew's scope.
Fine art and framed works are wrapped in acid-free tissue or glassine at the surface, then padded with custom wrap or placed in mirror cartons. Antique furniture is padded with museum-grade materials at all contact points. Small sculptures and ceramics receive custom foam cushioning. For very high-value or fragile items, custom crating is available at an additional cost confirmed before the packing date.
Garage and utility items are packed in heavy-duty boxes. Tools are wrapped individually; sharp items are secured and labelled. Hardware and small parts are bagged and labelled. Garden and outdoor items that are not oversized are packed in large cartons. Items that cannot be safely packed (fuel canisters, paint, cleaning chemicals) are noted and excluded from the packing scope as hazardous material.
CG Moving handles every step: pre-move survey, COI, loading, and placement at destination.
Full service packing starts with a scope confirmation. The crew size, materials, and packing schedule are set before the packing date is confirmed.
The full service packing scope is confirmed before the packing date: the number of rooms, the item types in each room (with any specialty items noted separately), the packing date relative to the move date, and whether the packing will be completed on one day or across two days. For larger properties, two packing days may be required. The crew size is determined by the total scope and the time available before the move.
On the packing day, the crew arrives with all required materials: double-wall moving boxes in multiple sizes, dish pack cartons, wardrobe boxes, mirror cartons, packing paper (acid-free, newsprint-free), bubble wrap, foam sheeting, and tape dispensers. No advance preparation by the customer is needed. The crew sets up a packing station and begins with the most time-intensive room (typically the kitchen) before moving to other rooms.
The crew packs room by room, wrapping and boxing each item according to its fragility level. Every box is labelled with the destination room name and a brief content description before the box is sealed. Boxes are stacked against the walls of each completed room, leaving central floor space clear. Any items the customer has excluded from the packing scope (documents, valuables, items for personal transport) are noted and set aside.
When all rooms are packed, the crew completes a walk-through of the property with the customer to confirm every room is done and no items have been missed. Any remaining loose items are confirmed and addressed. The customer signs off on the packing completion. If the moving crew is arriving the same day, the packing crew coordinates the handover so loading can begin as soon as the walk-through is complete.
Packing costs depend on home size, fragile item count, and materials required.
Full service packing costs are driven by the room count, volume density, specialty item scope, and whether unpacking at the destination is included. All confirmed before the packing date is set.
The primary cost driver for full service packing. A one-bedroom apartment takes half the crew hours of a three-bedroom house. The room count and volume density are confirmed before the estimate is issued.
A fully-stocked kitchen with extensive dishware, glassware, and small appliances takes two to three times longer to pack than a room of equivalent size with clothing or books. The kitchen scope is assessed separately in the estimate.
Fine art, antiques, and fragile specialty items require additional time and materials above the standard room pack rate. Unpacking at the destination is available as an add-on and is confirmed and priced before the packing date.
Common factors that affect a full service packing estimate:
Room count: one bedroom vs. two bedroom vs. full house (primary cost driver)
Kitchen volume: fully-stocked kitchen takes two to three times the time of a standard room
Specialty items in the property: fine art, antiques, or fragile pieces requiring specialist packing
Whether packing is done over one day (smaller properties) or two days (larger properties)
Unpacking add-on at destination: whether the crew unpacks boxes at the new address
Distance: local SF Bay Area vs. long-distance California move (affects packing day scheduling)
CG Moving Company reviews the property size, room count, kitchen scope, and specialty items before issuing a written estimate. The estimate is confirmed before the packing date is booked. No charges are added after the estimate is confirmed.

Common questions about CG Moving services, licensing, COI, and costs answered below.
Full service packing covers every room in the property: kitchen, bedrooms, bathrooms, living and dining rooms, home office, and garage. The crew wraps and boxes every item, places furniture in moving blankets, and labels every box with the destination room. All packing materials are provided. The customer does not need to prepare boxes or supplies in advance.
The main thing is to identify any items you want to pack yourself or transport personally: documents, valuables, medications, jewellery, and items you want immediate access to at the destination. Set those aside before the crew arrives and let the crew know which items are excluded from the scope. Everything else in the property will be packed by the crew.
A one-bedroom apartment typically takes one packing crew four to six hours. A two-bedroom property takes six to eight hours. A three-bedroom house with a full kitchen can take eight to twelve hours or a full packing day. Properties with extensive kitchenware, large book or record collections, or specialty items take longer. The packing time estimate is confirmed before the packing date is set.
Yes, when the property is small enough for both tasks to be completed on the same day. For larger properties, a dedicated packing day before the move day is recommended. The packing crew completes the property, and the moving crew arrives the following day for loading. The scheduling is confirmed based on the property size and the move timeline.
The crew brings double-wall moving boxes in multiple sizes, dish pack cartons (reinforced for kitchen items), wardrobe boxes (with rail for hanging clothing), mirror cartons, packing paper (acid-free, newsprint-free), bubble wrap, foam sheeting, and tape dispensers. All materials are included in the packing service cost. No advance purchase of boxes or supplies is required.
Specialty packing for fine art, framed works, and antiques is included in the full service scope for standard pieces that can be packed using the crew’s standard specialty materials (acid-free tissue, custom wrap, museum-grade padding). For very high-value, oversized, or structurally fragile pieces that require hard crating, the crating cost is quoted separately and confirmed before the packing date.
Yes. Unpacking at the destination is available as an add-on to full service packing. The crew unpacks boxes, places items in the rooms designated, and removes all packing materials and boxes. Full unpacking and priority-room unpacking (kitchen and bedrooms) are both available. The unpacking scope is confirmed at the same time as the packing booking.
The packing services hub (/packing-services-san-francisco/) covers all packing service types: full-service, partial, specialty, unpacking, and packing supplies. This page covers the full service scope specifically: every room packed by a professional crew, all materials included. If you only need part of the property packed, or only need packing supplies for self-pack, the hub page covers those options.
