Mountain View Movers
Trek moves apartments, houses and offices across Mountain View, from Old Mountain View to Whisman and North Bayshore, with every crew sent out from its hub on Campbell Avenue in San Jose. Most households here rent.
Quick Takeaways
- Mostly renters: 38.6% of homes are owner-occupied.
- Building rules before truck dates: Get the move-in rules in writing.
- Garden complexes mean stairs: Older ones have no elevator, just outside stairs and a walk from the lot.
- Rengstorff to Sunnyvale: A local, one-day job.
- Offices from Castro Street to East Whisman: A few rooms above a storefront or a whole floor.
A Growing Mountain View Runs on Leases
Mountain View grew. The Census Bureau’s QuickFacts estimate of 85,438 residents for July 2025 sits 3.5% above its April 2020 base. Just 38.6% of its homes are owner-occupied, so roughly six households in ten rent. Leases set the moving calendar.
A one-bedroom near the Caltrain station trades up to a two-bedroom off Rengstorff Avenue, a couple leaves an older complex for a newer building on El Camino, and a family buys in Waverly Park. Each one is a different job.
Moving Solutions for Any Home or Business in Mountain View
Mountain View’s housing is mostly apartments, with pockets of older houses and postwar tracts, and its offices range from a few rooms above a Castro Street storefront to whole floors in East Whisman. One plan won’t fit.
Apartments From San Antonio Center to the Transit Center
Mid-rise buildings with elevators and loading areas, and older garden complexes where every piece goes up an outside stair.
Offices Downtown and Across East Whisman
Conference tables, files and a dozen desks for a team above Castro Street, or a whole floor in East Whisman, with Trek’s own employees doing the carrying either way.
Old Mountain View Houses and Monta Loma Eichlers
Older houses on the blocks south of downtown need stair covers. In Monta Loma, the glass-walled Eichlers call for furniture to be steered clear of the window walls on its way out, a puzzle Eichler owners in south Palo Alto know well.
El Camino, Central Expressway and SR-237 All Lead Into Sunnyvale
A one-bedroom off Rengstorff moving to a Sunnyvale apartment is a same-day job.
Three roads lead there. SR-237 starts at El Camino Real and heads that way, El Camino itself crosses the city line, and Central Expressway runs beside the Caltrain tracks toward downtown Sunnyvale and Murphy Avenue. An East Whisman team relocating to Moffett Park is a local office move as well, since Trek treats anything under 100 miles as local.
Long-Distance Moves Out of Mountain View Skip the Warehouse
A renter taking a one-bedroom from Mountain View to Austin gets a dedicated truck that goes from one door to the other without a stop at a warehouse.
Trek prices these moves as a guaranteed flat rate after the walkthrough, and the route can end anywhere in the US. Canada counts too.
Our Mountain View Moving Services
Apartment moves are compact. A building may give the crew only a short window on its elevator, so the packing, padding and rebuilding all have to fit around that slot.
Furniture Protection
Blankets wrap the furniture. Runners go down the hallway, pads on the door frames and covers on any stairs.
Expert Furniture Assembly
Bed frames, desks and shelving come apart before they meet the elevator, and the same crew rebuilds them upstairs.
Express & After-Hours Moving
Weekends suit an office move. Evening and weekend moves are standard for business clients at Trek, so an East Whisman floor can be packed on a Saturday and set up in the new space before staff return.
Mid-Rise or Garden Complex, the Mountain View Carry Changes
A newer mid-rise and an older garden complex are opposite problems. In the mid-rises near San Antonio Center or the transit center, moves may run through a loading area or a reserved elevator, so get management’s answer in writing and show it on the video walkthrough.
Garden complexes have no elevator, just outside stairs and a long walk from the lot. Film both.
A Mountain View Quote Comes in Writing, All-Inclusive
Every Mountain View quote arrives in writing and all-inclusive. Two-bedrooms, houses and every long-distance move always get a guaranteed flat rate, set once Trek has looked over the home on video or in person.

Small units can go hourly. The hourly rate is all-inclusive as well, with no truck or gas fee added.
*Regional pricing can vary with scheduling constraints and service availability. Every booking gets a written estimate first.
Why Trek Movers Is Mountain View's Best Moving Company
Mountain View moves usually run against a lease deadline and a building’s rulebook at the same time, which leaves the crew at your door very little room for error.

Mountain View Moving FAQs
How much does it cost to move a two-bedroom apartment in Mountain View?
A two-bedroom always gets a guaranteed flat rate, all-inclusive, set once the crew has seen the unit on video or in person and knows the elevator rules.
Can a local Mountain View move be finished in one day?
That’s the norm at Trek: a local move to San Jose or Sunnyvale finishes the day it starts.
Can movers carry furniture up outside stairs in an older apartment complex?
Yes. Show the stairs and the walk from the parking lot on the video call, so the estimate accounts for every flight.
How do movers price a move from Mountain View to Los Angeles?
As a guaranteed flat rate, set after Trek has seen the home, with a dedicated truck because Los Angeles sits well past the 100-mile line.
A Mountain View Move Runs on Two Buildings' Rules
Two buildings, two rulebooks. Get the move-in rules from the one you’re leaving and the one you’re heading to, including where a truck may stand on Rengstorff or El Camino and how long the elevator can be held. Those two documents set the day.

I had a great experience using Trek Movers! Their website makes it easy to book a reservation online. They also had great customer service! I reached out to fix a mistake on my moving estimate, and the woman I spoke with on the phone was very kind and helpful! Before my moving day I got an email outlining an itinerary of what to expect day of. I really appreciated the guidance! On the day of, my movers did a walk through of my apartment and gave me a time estimate. They ended up extremely close to their estimate at the end! The movers were fast and efficient and honestly made this stressful day so much better! Thank you!! -

I've always been the type of person to rent my own U-Haul and bribe my friends to help me move, but after my experience with Trek Movers, I'll never go back to trying to move by myself again. — Rates & Service – I had requested quotes from several different companies and Trek Movers had really awesome rates, but it was the service that completely won me over. When I requested a quote, I was immediately taken to an online portal that provided me an estimate based off my room size and then the website also allowed me to add my inventory to give them an even better estimate. -

Tim and his crew came highly recommended by a coworker and I can see why. They were professional, they worked very quickly, they work super hard, and they had a great attitude. I would absolutely hire these guys again. -

These guys are amazing… our stuff would have taken us weeks to move and they managed to move it all in 2 days, and in a heat wave no less! Thanks guys, that took a lot of the stress off of us! -

We highly recommend Trek Movers to anyone looking for a locally owned and professionally run moving company. We hired Trek for our house move from San Francisco to Los Angeles. The kindness and responsiveness I experienced with them in every interaction on the phone, in emails and in person was a relief during a very stressful situation. Our team of movers were incredibly hard working and patient with filling the truck with several objects that weren't square and organically shaped as well as some heavy workshop machinery from our garage that don't make packing a truck easy.
