Reverse: Ukiah → Bakersfield

Moving from Bakersfield to Ukiah is a regional long-distance move of roughly 411 road miles, heading northwest within California.

At this distance carriers price by shipment weight and mileage rather than by the hour. A two-bedroom home (around 5,000 lb of goods) typically costs $3,830 to $5,690 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 1 to 3 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 7 h 47 min.

On the Bakersfield side there are 270 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (144 of them authorized for interstate work), and 15 around Ukiah (3 interstate). For an in-state move you can book from either end; movers near the origin handle loading and are usually the better first call, while a destination-side company can be useful if you need storage or delivery-day help in Ukiah.

Bakersfield has a population of about 422,165 and Ukiah about 17,000. The two cities have comparable density (2,693 and 3,484 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Bakersfield to Ukiah?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,540 to $2,290 for a studio, $2,300 to $3,420 for a one-bedroom, $3,830 to $5,690 for a two-bedroom, $6,120 to $9,110 for a three-bedroom and $8,420 to $12,530 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Ukiah from Bakersfield?

About 411 road miles (348 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 7 h 47 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

Expect a delivery window of 1 to 3 days after pickup. Carriers give a spread rather than a fixed date because long-distance trucks carry several shipments; a dedicated truck or expedited service shortens the window for an extra fee.

Do I need an interstate-licensed mover for an in-state move?

No. Because both Bakersfield and Ukiah are in California, this is an intrastate move regulated by the state rather than the FMCSA. Still, choosing a carrier with an active USDOT number is the easiest way to confirm the company is a registered motor carrier with insurance on file.

Is it cheaper to rent a truck or use a container for Bakersfield to Ukiah?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $570 to $810 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,390 to $2,040. Both save money versus a full-service crew but you do the loading, and container transit can take longer than a mover's delivery window.

When is the least expensive time to book this move?

Rates are highest in summer and around the last days of any month, when demand peaks. Mid-month, mid-week and winter dates are usually quoted below the standard rate. Booking four to eight weeks ahead gives you the widest choice of carriers on the Bakersfield–Ukiah corridor.
