San Francisco, CA → Inglewood, CA · Regional long-distance move
About 412 road miles heading southeast. Typical two-bedroom cost $3,830–$5,700, delivery in 1–3 days, 899 carriers on the San Francisco side and 1,198 in Inglewood.
Inglewood sits about 412 miles southeast of San Francisco, so this is an in-state move that most movers classify as a regional long-distance move.
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 $5,700 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 48 min.
On the San Francisco side there are 899 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (270 of them authorized for interstate work), and 1,198 around Inglewood (507 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 Inglewood.
San Francisco has a population of about 826,079 and Inglewood about 101,662. San Francisco is considerably denser (18,635 people per square mile versus 11,842), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination.

About 412 road miles (349 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 7 h 48 min.
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.
No. Because both San Francisco and Inglewood 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.
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.
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 San Francisco–Inglewood corridor.
