San Francisco sits about 123 miles southeast of Ukiah, so this is an in-state move that most movers classify as a short-haul move.
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 49 min counted as billable travel time. A typical two-bedroom household lands between $2,530 and $3,760, before packing or storage.
On the Ukiah side there are 15 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (3 of them authorized for interstate work), and 899 around San Francisco (270 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 Francisco.
Ukiah has a population of about 17,000 and San Francisco about 826,079. San Francisco is the denser city (18,635 people per square mile versus 3,484 in Ukiah), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day.
