The route from Long Beach, CA to Santa Maria, CA covers roughly 180 miles by road, a northwest-bound trip that falls into the regional long-distance move category for pricing purposes.
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 $2,780 to $4,140 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 1 to 2 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 3 h 48 min.
On the Long Beach side there are 1,558 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (664 of them authorized for interstate work), and 42 around Santa Maria (23 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 Santa Maria.
Long Beach has a population of about 450,469 and Santa Maria about 111,390. Long Beach is considerably denser (9,206 people per square mile versus 4,812), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination.
