Moving from Richmond to Modesto is a short-haul move of roughly 91 road miles, heading east within California.
Because the two cities are close together, most companies quote this move by the hour: a crew of two to four movers plus a truck, with the drive of about 2 h 16 min counted as billable travel time. A typical two-bedroom household lands between $1,810 and $2,690, before packing or storage.
On the Richmond side there are 252 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (86 of them authorized for interstate work), and 392 around Modesto (205 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 Modesto.
Richmond has a population of about 114,861 and Modesto about 219,652. Modesto is the denser city (5,081 people per square mile versus 3,869 in Richmond), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day.
