Moving from Sacramento to San Mateo is a short-haul move of roughly 98 road miles, heading southwest 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 23 min counted as billable travel time. A typical two-bedroom household lands between $1,850 and $2,750, before packing or storage.
On the Sacramento side there are 747 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (421 of them authorized for interstate work), and 332 around San Mateo (93 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 San Mateo.
Sacramento has a population of about 536,449 and San Mateo about 103,337. San Mateo is the denser city (8,732 people per square mile versus 5,324 in Sacramento), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day.
