About
A family business that's been moving LA for 50+ years
Locally owned and operated by Angel Contreras. Average crew tenure: 15 years. We've been doing this longer than most movers have been in business.
Our story
Superior Moving has been a Los Angeles family business since 1974. What started as a single truck and a small team has grown into one of the most experienced moving operations in Greater LA — still family-owned, still family-run, still in the same San Fernando Valley.
Our crew is the rarest thing in this business: long-tenured. The average mover on our team has been with us 15 years. That stability is what we point to when customers ask why our work is different. Experienced movers know how to load a truck so nothing shifts. They know how to wrap furniture so finishes survive. They know how to read a building's quirks — the elevator that's smaller than the spec says, the doorway that needs a tight pivot, the hillside driveway that won't take a 26-foot truck.
Owned & operated by
Angel Contreras — local owner-operator. When you call us, Angel or a long-tenured team member answers. There's no call center. No outsourced quoting. No broker fee. We're the people who'll actually be coordinating your move.
What we believe about moving
- A superior move, not just a great price. Cheap moves with bad crews cost more in damaged furniture and stress. We compete on reliability, not on being the lowest bid.
- Written quotes before you book. You should know crew size, estimated hours, drive time, and total price up front — never a "we'll see" estimate.
- Plain-English pricing. California has specific moving regulations (double drive time, written estimates, insurance requirements). We explain how each applies to your move so the bill doesn't surprise you.
- Take care of the crew. Movers who are paid well and treated well stay long-term. That's why our team has 15-year average tenure — and why our customers get experienced labor on every move.
