Loading and unloading help

Maybe the truck’s already reserved, or a pod is sitting in the driveway, and all that’s missing is the muscle to fill it. Closing that gap is the whole point of this service. By the hour, we send our W-2 crew to load up or empty out a truck, a pod, or a container, fast but careful, so your back stays in one piece and your brother-in-law keeps his Saturday. You hold onto the driving and the storage; the heavy lifting shifts to us.

What the crew handles

Done right, loading a rental means the big boxy pieces go in first, the weight sits over the axle, and each item is padded and lashed so nothing budges once you’re out on Highway 4 or I-680. At the other end the crew carries it indoors, climbs the two-story tract stairs if the new place has them, and sets each item in its room. We turn up with the pads, the dollies, the straps, and plenty of practice; the one thing you supply is the vehicle.

Who books us

Most often it’s a rented truck or pod that just needs hands at one end, or at both. Some callers are driving it themselves and simply don’t want to haul everything up a two-story staircase. Now and then a pod parked in a Brentwood driveway needs packing tight enough to survive the road, or a storage unit needs stacking smart enough to swallow the whole load. And a fair share of calls are for a single side, just the load or just the unload.

Hourly, clock run straight

It’s priced by the hour, $145/hr for two movers, on a three-hour minimum. You get a straight estimate of the hours before anyone lifts a thing, and the meter doesn’t start until the crew is actually at work, not the moment a truck pulls out of our yard. We don’t inflate the count, and no surprise minimum is hiding in the fine print.

Loaded to travel safe

A load packed by people who do this all day rides tighter and comes apart quicker than anything thrown together in a rush. We layer and lash it so your dresser isn’t crushing the lamps somewhere on I-680, and on the carry we lay runners and guard the doorframes so the old unit keeps its deposit. Same Nava Bros Moving crew, same care, just trimmed down to the slice of the job you actually want a hand with.

Pricing, in writing

What it costs

Crews Billed By The Hour

Starting from$120/hr

Built into that Oakley hourly rate is a two-mover team on a three-hour minimum, the truck rolled up to your driveway, and the full kit that travels with it — quilted pads, straps, ramps, dollies, plus the floor runners we roll out across the tile and hardwood you find in a Delta tract home. All of it is already baked into the figure we quote, so none of these items resurface on the final bill as some add-on charge.

I was thrilled with these guys! Hector and his team were professional, friendly, reassuring, and took special care of the family antique furniture I had. They worked their butts off to get everything done quickly, very communicative throughout. Will definitely be using them for my next move!

Questions that come up often

Questions before you book

Can you just load my rental?
No trouble. The truck, pod, or container is yours to bring; the muscle is ours, billed by the hour. Big pieces load first with the weight set over the axle for a safe run on Highway 4 or I-680, and the whole load is padded and lashed to stay put on the drive.
What do crew hours cost?
Two movers go for $145/hr on a three-hour minimum. You get a straight hours estimate before any lifting begins, and the meter only starts once the crew is into the work, not when the truck leaves our yard. None of it is inflated.
Carry up a two-story staircase?
Glad to. When the unload is at an Oakley or Brentwood two-story home, the crew carries it up the stairs and sets it down room by room. Runners get laid and the doorframes get guarded, so the old place holds onto its deposit as part of the deal.
Can I book just one side?
Of course. Plenty of self-drive movers want a hand with the loading only, or the unloading only. Let us know which side and we'll cover that part by the hour, bringing the crew and full-move care to whichever piece you need.
