Moving from Santa Cruz to Daly City is a short-haul move of roughly 64 road miles, heading northwest 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 1 h 48 min counted as billable travel time. A typical two-bedroom household lands between $1,650 and $2,450, before packing or storage.
On the Santa Cruz side there are 27 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (6 of them authorized for interstate work), and 273 around Daly City (77 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 Daly City.
Santa Cruz has a population of about 62,000 and Daly City about 101,261. Daly City is the denser city (13,803 people per square mile versus 4,942 in Santa Cruz), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day.
