Redding sits about 476 miles north of Santa Maria, 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 $4,120 to $6,130 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 8 h 54 min.
On the Santa Maria side there are 42 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (23 of them authorized for interstate work), and 37 around Redding (15 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 Redding.
Santa Maria has a population of about 111,390 and Redding about 94,000. Santa Maria is considerably denser (4,812 people per square mile versus 1,574), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination.
