DIRECTLY, WITHOUT USING SUBCONTRACTORS
If you ever read moving company reviews, you could notice that #1 reason why people experience issues when moving long distance is that their moving company outsources the delivery to other transportation companies and therefore loses control over the stuff.
In a situation like that the moving company can’t know where the stuff is and when exactly it will be delivered.
That is why at Roadway Moving we have our own trailers and we do not outsource delivery to others.
We can move you directly from Washington to any part of California and you can rest assured that your stuff will be packed safely, GPS tracked during the whole move and delivered on time.

7 Things to Know When Moving to California from Washington
Whether you’re drawn to the career opportunities of Los Angeles and the Bay Area or the coastal lifestyle of San Diego and Orange County, you will find your place here, with Roadway Moving by your side to take you from Washington. Let’s look at some essential facts we prepared for you to help make your move to California a confident and exciting step forward.
Cost of living
California’s cost of living is generally higher than Washington’s, especially in major metro areas like Los Angeles, San Francisco, and San Diego. Housing, transportation, and everyday expenses often exceed the national average. Unlike Washington, California has a state income tax, which can significantly impact overall affordability. Inland and Central Valley cities tend to be more budget-friendly than coastal regions.
Housing
Housing in California varies widely by location. Coastal cities and tech hubs have some of the highest home prices and rents in the country, while inland areas offer more affordable options. Apartments, single-family homes, and condominiums are available across the state, but competition in desirable areas can be intense compared to most parts of Washington.
Job opportunities
California has one of the largest and most diverse job markets in the world. Key industries include technology, entertainment, healthcare, biotechnology, agriculture, and international trade. While Washington is known for technology and aerospace, California offers broader industry diversity and access to global companies, particularly in Silicon Valley and Los Angeles.
Education
California provides a wide range of educational opportunities, including top-ranked public universities and private institutions. The University of California and California State University systems offer strong academic programs across the state. Many school districts are highly rated, especially in suburban and coastal areas, making California attractive for families relocating from Washington.
Transportation
Transportation in California is heavily car-dependent, especially outside dense urban cores. Traffic congestion is common in major metro areas, and commute times can be long. While some cities offer public transportation options, most residents rely on personal vehicles. California’s extensive airport network supports both domestic and international travel.
Entertainment
California offers unmatched entertainment options. From Hollywood and live music to beaches, festivals, and professional sports, the state provides endless lifestyle choices. Residents can enjoy dining, nightlife, arts, and cultural events year-round, offering a more varied entertainment landscape compared to Washington.
Parks and Recreation
California is known for its diverse natural environments. Residents can enjoy beaches, deserts, mountains, and national parks all within the same state. From hiking and skiing to surfing and camping, outdoor recreation is available year-round. Compared to Washington’s forested and mountainous terrain, California offers a wider range of climates and outdoor experiences.
