Walsh is a family-owned full-service moving company.
We’ve operated out of the same building in Torrance, CA, since 1964. More recently, the company expanded to a second warehouse location in Long Beach.
Local moving within metro Los Angeles is the heart of our business. Less frequently, we handle long-distance moves: from Southern California to anywhere in the contiguous USA.

Some so-called “local” moving companies are, in fact, national chains with local franchises. They have a local presence but answer to a national corporate parent.
A good portion of their revenue leaves the local economy when you pay the bill. A percentage of their workforce may live out of state.
Despite the well-publicized California exodus, most Southern Californians, when they move, aren’t leaving the state. They’re not going from Los Angeles to Texas. They’re moving from Los Angeles to another address in Los Angeles.
We’ll move you to Texas if that’s where you’re heading, but we’re betting that when you call us, it will be to:
In our experience, most moves occur close to home.
Small business relocations, especially, tend to be hyper-localized. As a matter of survival, retail stores, restaurants, and professional practices must remain within shouting distance of their customer base.

Most of our moving business stays within metro Los Angeles, in cities like Los Angeles. Our goal is to provide the best possible moving service at a fair price. Local moves close to our warehouses are the service we deliver most efficiently.
Local moves can be apartment to apartment, house to house, city to nearby city, or they may simply be a matter of reorganizing furniture within a building.
Companies outgrow their space. They downsize to remain competitive. They search for a better location or a more favorable lease and city tax code.
The movers you hire should adjust to your business schedule and avoid significant disruptions. They should recognize when it’s appropriate to remove supplies, furniture, and equipment and when it’s not.
At Walsh Moving, we plan your move in detail before we send out the first truck.

Short-term vault and trailer storage are fundamentally different from self-storage in standard facilities. Access is limited. Storage is more secure.
No hoarder would ever consider vault or trailer storage, short-term solutions for movers whose permanent living or business space isn’t quite ready for occupancy.
Normally, short-term storage is included in your moving estimate and not extended as a separate service. But if you need to store a sofa or piano for a while, or if you need storage at a moment’s notice, we can do that, too.
Walsh moving professionals are trained to handle your things with care. But if anything does break during packing and moving, we’ll reimburse you. Professional movers are licensed and insured. Any damage is covered.
When it comes to boxing breakables, antiques, and family heirlooms, it pays to have someone experienced on the job.
Not every professional move involves a truck. In-home and in-office moves are a big part of our business at Walsh, where boxes and furniture may not even leave the building.
It sounds so easy. You’re just rearranging a few things around the house or office, right?
The task is much easier for Walsh movers than for the average person. Plus, Walsh professional movers are insured. Not just for any injuries sustained (and they’re far less likely to get hurt than you), but for any damage to your belongings.

Okay, now we’re no longer strictly local, but if you live in Los Angeles and plan to move across state lines, call us and let’s talk. Our primary long-distance service area is the Western USA, but we’ve hauled trailers from Southern California as far as New England.
Los Angeles to Texas? Not a problem.
Los Angeles to Bakersfield or the Bay Area? We do it all the time.
